Emulator

Sorry, I just discovered something strange. Disabling ignore format changes appear to fix the problem. I'll test again tonight. Got stuff to do right now.

Disabling ignore format changes only partially fix #4 (old man still looks a tad blurry), but still, I think the DOF is broken. So far the issue only occurs during cutscenes. Also, disabling ignore format changes is required to make the other textures visible (D3D backend). Not disabling it will cause some textures (i.e. plants on walls in houses, vines) to not appear at all.

#1, #2, #3, etc. still produces blur regardless of settings.

P.S. I just started playing this on emulator, so there is a possibility that there are more defects on the way.

What do you mean with "Disabling ignore format changes "? You mean, uncheck the checkbox?

@ MaJoR: If that's the case, why did you not close this thread instead?

The problem is not fixed by unchecking "Ignore format changes". There is currently no way around it besides disabling EFB copies outright. Even software does it (with EFB to Ram style glitches that liter this game). Yea, EFB to Texture is more accurate with Skyward, EFB to Ram shows tons of errors. Just try it on that fifolog. EFB to Ram may be tie-dye hell, even it still has the blur.

Fortunately, this bug appears to only occur in select places, like cinematic close ups. The fifolog I provided coinsides with one of his emulator/wii comparison screenshots, so we already know what hardware looks like for that fifolog. I.e. not blurred all to hell.

Actually if you look at pic 2 there is a depth of field effect in the background with wii, just not on the character. It seems to be a depth issue with the effect in dolphin.

Fixed in the Tev_Fixes_New branch

Can someone confirm it's fixed in all areas that have this issue. The example image I was given looks fine, but I'm not very familiar with this game. Thanks!

I will test it tomorrow night. However, one of my friends told me the fix didn't work.

Make sure you test with EFB2ram enabled.

And with EFB2tex too, I've been getting conflicting reports about SS working with/without EFB2ram.

Just tested it with EFB to RAM. The fix DID NOT work. The results are the same as before.

Nothing. Same results.

Can someone recheck this issue now? 4.0-2626 may have fixed it.

Nope, it is still there.

Oops sorry, i meant to answer for issue 7478, this issue might be fixed.

This isn't fixed by this still.

Looking at the fifolog provided in comment #3:

If you use the look at object range 0 - 394 then the image is sharp.
It looks like the next objects are setting up DOF to me, perhaps it's supposed to be more subtle.

How does it look on hardware?

Rather it gets added in range 0 - 395

The DOF effect is being created in range 383- 394 and added in 395
