What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
Random orange flashing in Resident Evil 4 Wii edition under Vulkan. Does not happen in OpenGL, and it does not go away if you change the shader compilation mode. Unsure if it's related to the Adreno Texture Bug but it could be, as i'm using an Adreno 8XX GPU.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Launch Resident Evil 4 with Vulkan enabled.
In some areas of the game, seemingly especially those with lens flares, will cause your screen to flash bright orange.
- Inside the cabin in the Deserted Village (where Luis Sera is found)
- At the start of the castle section (attached save), right at the gates, break the barrel between a tree and a hut, and go behind the hut. Opening the chest behind that hut will cause the screen to flash orange.
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, on 2609-7. I couldn't find any newer than that on the website, is the buildserver dead?
Is the issue present in the latest release? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest release.
Yes, 2609.
What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)
Samsung Galaxy S25
Android 17
Snapdragon 8 Elite (Samsung version)
Adreno 830
12GB RAM
Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
I have attached the save file and a video. Ignore the jank in the video, it's probably a desync that happened when i started recording.

No, it isn't. The other games affected like Luigi's Mansion work properly now though.
