[00:58] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> SylvainTV has been patiently listening to my rants those past 3h, and helped me achieve this small miracle. So, thanks to him 🙂
[01:02] <grogbot> [discord] <eientei> I was not prepared for that title screen
[01:02] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> Why not?
[01:02] <grogbot> [discord] <eientei> because I opened the video to full-screen before it appeared :p
[01:03] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> so you saw really large pixels 🙂
[01:03] <grogbot> [discord] <eientei> Those pixels scared the bejeezus out of me
[01:04] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> Well, the really scary part is me working on sound code
[01:04] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> it may be one of the signs of an upcoming apocalypse
[01:08] <grogbot> [discord] <eientei> "Strangerke Goes to Heck and Brings Back Sound Code"

[01:10] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> it also means it's only missing sound now
[01:14] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> bro this was loud as heck and very out of nowhere lmao
[01:14] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> even on 50% volume it was really loud
[01:16] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> well, sorry 🙂 It's not particularly loud here, for some reason
[01:18] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> Its so loud it made my phone vibrate lol, idk why it isnt loud on ur end
[01:19] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> Well, you are lucky, you didn't ear my first result
[01:21] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> I used frequency number instead of frequency, so I had full volume at 8kHz instead of 250Hz
[01:22] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> Seeing the reaction of my dog, I almost killed him
[01:23] <grogbot> [discord] <Retrotude> Talk about a jumpscare XD
[01:24] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> I looked painfull too 😄
[01:26] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> Bro are your ears ok
[01:27] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> I always have tinnitus, so I guess not 😉
[01:27] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> anyway, it's 2:30am and I pushed my code, so I'll go to sleep now
[01:27] <grogbot> [discord] <Strangerke> tzag guys
[01:35] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> Good night and thank you for introducing me to a really cool game
[01:35] <grogbot> [discord] <Big Beef> Weird jumpscare aside this game looks very fascinating

[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> I looked at the bug.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> Indeed it works in RetroArch and it works in GLES2.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe>
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> The differences are as follows:
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> - In RetroArch the texture given in entry of the shader is a 2048x2048 texture with a small 320x200 rectangle at the lower left set with the content. In ScummVM we provide a texture of 320x200.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> - In GLES2, there is a hack in fakelottes `#if defined CURVATURE && defined GL_ES` which specifically clamps data in borders.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> The bug comes from rounding issues.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe>
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> I don't think we will be able to change ScummVM to use a big texture as shader input: it doesn't seem right and is quite a significant change.
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> One quick fix would be to patch fakelottes to always do this clamp (@sev maybe you have an opinion on this).
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe>
[17:04] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> As a side note, using glcore and slangp shaders, the texture size is like ScummVM: 320x200 (as mentioned in the slangp repository README). The bug has been fixed in fakelottes shader instead: there are less divisions and less rounding issues it seems but I am not sure of all implications as several things have changed in RetroArch with slangp.
[17:05] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> Since we're distributing our own set of shaders, I'd recommend just fixing the shader
[17:05] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> it lives in scummvm-shaders repo
[17:06] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> ok, I will do it in the repo but I don't know what are the steps afterwards
[17:06] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> at this moment everything is manual
[17:06] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> in this particular case, fix the shader in base/
[17:07] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> and then zip the directory with `zip -r9` and put the file into gui/themes
[17:07] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> or ping me and I'll do it
[17:07] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> but I am afraid, it is not only for the fakelottes
[17:07] <grogbot> [discord] <sev> other CRT shaders could experience the same thing
[17:09] <-- Dominus left irc: Remote host closed the connection
[17:10] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> indeed I see the same "hacky clamp fix" in several shaders. I will fix all of them
[17:10] --> Dominus joined #scummvm.
[17:37] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> @sev done
[17:38] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> one with the fix was immunized and the others were only bugged if you changed the settings at the top of the file (as we miss the UI to change settings in ScummVM)
[17:38] <grogbot> [discord] <lephilousophe> fakelottes was the only one
[17:47] <grogbot> [discord] <eriktorbjorn> I assume the plan is to support the Mac version of Amerzone eventually? I noticed GOG has it on discount now.

[22:57] <grogbot> [discord] <mduggan> Yeah it should be possible eventually, although it's a good amount of work. After tidying Syberia enough I'll probably look at Syberia 2 next as it's got a very similar version of the engine
