What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
With default settings, Agent Under Fire's VP6 cutscenes have rapid purple flashing seemingly every other frame. Disabling "Store XFB Copies to Texture Only" fixes this.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
-
Boot Agent Under Fire with default settings.
-
Observe potentially seizure-inducing flickering.
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 (2409-181)
Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.
Yes (2409)
If the issue isn't present in the latest release, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)
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
Issue does not show up in fifologs.
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
Intel Core i7-13700K
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Ti
Windows 10 Home
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

Can no longer reproduce this with XFB to Texture. Seems to have been fixed at some point in the past year...

Marking as fixed, then. Though I'm not sure what change from the past year could have changed this.
Unfortunately, this needs to be reopened. I just repro'd this on Dolphin 2603-138.
I think that the last time I tested this, it was with XFB to RAM unknowingly forced in the user gameini.

I can't reproduce this.
Note that we have this in the game ini which resolves flashes of color, but they aren't "every other frame".

Yeah, I can't reproduce this either, even after turning on XFBtoTexture, so IDK. I was testing the game on a different machine than the above, though:
AMD Ryzen 9 9955HX3D
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 TI Mobile
Windows 11 Home/EndeavourOS Linux

Mystery solved - turns out this was a bad Gecko code (Unlimited Ammo Activated) all along...
Why a one-line code (0414B484 38600001) would cause symptoms like that is beyond me, though.
