Hello there. :)

I recently upgraded project64 and am experiencing problems with Zelda 2 that I didn't have with my previous version.

Flares -> The fearies used to be displayed almost correctly (switched between white and black flare between scenes), but this is now a complete disaster.

I checked another ROM to make sure that this problem isn't specific to Zelda 2. Here is a screenshot from Castlevania (same problem): http://users.pandora.be/the_mib_/board/flares2.jpg

There is also a problem with fog in Zelda 2 (weird lightning and fogging)

Fog seems to be working correctly in Castlevania.


I hope I either helped the devs by reporting this or that someone can give me advice on how to get this working correctly again.

You upgraded from what version to what version? What gfx card do you have? Did u recently upgrade drivers? What plugins? Setings?

We really need some more info ;)

Try checking "Change blending mode if invalid for video card" In the gfx plugin settings, I am 99% sure it's due to your card (bad drivers).
