Description

1) Game Name and ID:
Bomberman Generation (U) [GBGE5G]

2) What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Sometimes when you are going to start battle with any boss or with any Crush Bomber (with XFB disabled), the game may hang and the battle never start (the game and/or Dolphin doesn't crash, but you cant go further in the game).

3) What steps will reproduce the problem?

  • Start the game with XFB disabled
  • Go to any boss battle stage in normal game mode (on stage 4-2 and 5-2 the hang always occur, in the other boss battle stages the game may randomly hang)
  • The boss cut-scene will run normally, but when it ends, the battle won't start, Bomberman and the Boss will only stand

4) What version of dolphin are you using? On what operating system, drivers, and hardware?

  • Dolphin 3.0-459 (master branch) [x64]
  • Intel Core 2 Duo E4500 @ 2.2GHz
  • nVidia GeForce GT440 @ 1GB GDDR3
  • RAM: 2GB @ DDR2
  • Windows 7 Ultimate (x64)

5) Please provide any additional information below.

  • Enabling Real XFB fixes the hang but make the game run at lower resolutions (and with some speed drops).
  • Real XFB must be enabled before you boot the game, enabling it ingame doesn't "fix" the hang.
  • Maybe unrelated, but the Hudson Soft logo (when you boot the game) can only be seen if Real XFB is enabled

Also, already tried Disabling Dual Core and Idle Skipping, tried the JITIL recompiler, enabling lock threads to cores and LLE audio also, these hangs are only fixed with Real XFB (Virtual XFB doesn't work also)

Don't disable real XFB then, it's needed.

Thanks for taking the time to make the report, but turning off Real XFB is a hack. Therefore, this issue is invalid. Maybe try turning on accurate VBeam.
