Software renderer broken

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
Software renderer shows nothing but a black screen with any game, while OpenGL works fine. Booting Luigi's Mansion I was able to hear the "NINTENDO" and the title screen music, so it's just the rendering that's affected.
What did you expect to happen instead?
Software renderer should work as it did before
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Turn on software renderer
2.Start any game
3.Enjoy black screen
Dolphin 3.5 and 3.5-367 are old versions of Dolphin that have
known issues and bugs, so don't report issues about them and test the
latest Dolphin version first.
Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?
4.0-5238, 4.0-4432
Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?
Last time I used software renderer was 4.0-4432 and it worked fine then.
What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
Linux Ubuntu x86_64, Intel Core i3-3220 @ 3.3GHz, nVidia GeForce GTX 650
Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

Please bisect to when it stopped working for you.

Make sure hardware rasterizer isn't checked.
And if you are playing a fifo log, you need to check bypass xfb.

bisecting is pretty annoying because I use linux, so I have to keep compiling different builds which can take a long time to do...
hardware rasterizer is unchecked, everything left to default which has worked before but here's a picture of the settings if it matters http://i.gyazo.com/a0e5bc740082992b203eca9d0f3c839a.png

Updated by guitaristocrat3 almost 10 years ago
i dont know how that commit broke it since the PR seems to only affect OpenGL, but that's the result of my bisect.
Updated by phire almost 10 years ago
- Regression set to Yes
It's possible. Software renderer uses OpenGL to output the final frame to the screen (and overlay text).
Thanks for bisecting.

flacs did debug on this issue a bit more: Our software rasterfond implementation isn't core compatible. But we could just c&p the ogl one...
Updated by JMC4789 about 9 years ago
- Status changed from New to Fixed
This was fixed at some point when the render font was removed altogether, I think?
