Description

I'm Japanese, sorry for my baaad English.

Some text messages doesn't appear in GC BIOS.
eg. Instructions of buttons, Game Description ...etc

Also the point is that function is works normally.
I can setting up time, delete save data...everything.

Yes, just invisible.

I think this problem occur in Japanese version only. (font problem?)

Please look at videos should make the above obvious.

Real console - http://youtu.be/WoodO-Q0jis

What version of Dolphin were you using?

I checked on 3.0 and 3.5-604

64 or 32 bit Dolphin?

Have the fonts ever worked in any version of Dolphin?

Ah... I don't know.

Because I recently came to know about BIOS launch feature from this thread. ( http://forums.ngemu.com/showthread.php?t=142600 )
I try it on 3.0 from curiosity the other day, and found this issue.

For the moment, I just try now at 2.0 but still at issue.


Additional info.

I tried changing some settings.

Change Video API - D3D/OGL/Software Render
Change to Texture to RAM or disable
Enable Safe Cache (change to left/middle of slider)

...but still no effect.

Also I got two messages while boot up GC BIOS.
First - "IPL with unknown hash b2fcdb25"
Second - "ipl found in JAP directory, the disc may not be recognized"

These messages only show up in use panic handler.

I hope that this is of some use...

Hey man,

Did you fix your problem?
I have the same issue and couldn't find any solution.
I can't even start my ntsc-j games from the bios.

Bye

Rechecked this again, still a valid issue in 4.0-8076. Happy third birthday in a few months issue.

This cause was simple.
Line 111 in EXI_DeviceIPL.cpp:
Descrambler(m_pIPL + 0x100, 0x1aff00);
Replace to:
Descrambler(m_pIPL + 0x100, 0x1afe00);
