BS1: Distorted Fullscreen Image

Reported by: SF/magnushult Owned by: fingolfin
Priority: normal Component: Engine: Sword1
Version: Keywords:
Cc: Game: Broken Sword 1

Description

When viewing Broken Sword 1 in fullscreen mode, the image is heavily distorted. Due to some sort of alignment error, the image is skewed. The image is divided into small "tiles" and the graphic inside a tile looks correct, but the tiles are misaligned. Besides, most of the tiles contain parts of the image of my desktop, not of the game. The image is distorted both during videos and in the game itself.

I would attach a screenshot to clarify the error, but every screenshot I grab looks correct.

The game works excellent in windowed mode. I also tried Day of the Tentacle, which runs perfectly well in fullscreen.

I run the game on X under Debian unstable with Gnome, and scummvm -v says ScummVM 0.6.1b (Aug 6 2004 12:49:49) Features compiled in: Vorbis MP3 ALSA zLib MPEG2

My graphics card is a Radeon 9200 SE with the fglrx drivers from ATI.

Sounds a lot like a problem with your setup, as the problem is not reproducible elsewhere; it is further supported by the fact that your screenshots all end up right, indicating that ScummVM doesn't do anything wrong with the graphics buffer.

Try using another GFX driver, maybe the ATI one is buggy...

I think that fingolfin may be right, suspecting the ATI fglrx drivers.

Could you try reproducing this with the vesa or radeon (DRI) XFree86 drivers?

Also, what fglrx version are you using?

(I don't currently have a machine with fglrx handy, but this machine is running a very similar setup other than graphics card + driver, and I have no issues.)

The BS1 graphics aren't tile-based at all, and the engine doesn't even know if it's running in a window or fullscreen, so this is certainly not a BS1 related error. I'd assume that DOTT works fine because it's running in a 320x240 resolution instead of 640x480 as BS1 does.
