Description

Game Name?

The Sims 2

Game ID?

G4ZE69

MD5 Hash?

dc5038fa00bcf4a7c507cd6a92fb3429

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

During the story mode intro cutscene and ingame, the top and right borders of the screen have a pixel or two thick line that displays improperly. Fifolog attached. When recording a fifolog during this section, the fifoplayer also gives the error "FifoRecorder: Expected command to be 4953 bytes long, we were given 6603 bytes".

What steps will reproduce the problem?

Start the game in story mode, create a sim, and complete sim creation to start the story mode. It's visible in the first cutscene.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

Yes, 9.0-9954.

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

I'm retarded and I can't figure out how to uninstall dolphin when built from source to install 5.0 from the ubuntu repositories. I tried switching branches to tags/5.0 and compiling it instead but I had the compiler throw an error and quit (it's building in home, I just removed my name):

/dolphin-emu/Source/Core/Common/x64CPUDetect.cpp:45:12: error: ambiguating new declaration of ‘u64 _xgetbv(u32)’

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version?

Will check later as soon as I figure out how to get 5.0, assuming builds don't fail :<.

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

Attached a fifolog and screenshot of how it looks for me.

What are your PC specifications?

Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB with nvidia-driver-390 drivers (390.116), Lubuntu 18.10
