Per-strip also has issues in Shenmue, watch the character vanish in a phone booth for example, but its better than per-triangle. This is also an issue on the Android version so its more of a flycast problem.

Or, at least, this implementation of Flycast atm.
Is most of the development on the Flycast core for HorizonArch happening in nightly form lately? I haven't kept up with all of the updates as of late, but I guess some updates have broken some games that were working, and meanwhile I'm over here wondering when Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 will be able to take me for a ride at a speed higher than 10-30 FPS...
i just need to change the alpha sorting option? where is that located

Anyone playing Phantasy Star Online v2?
I don't know if it's a bug or my own mistake but every time i exit the game to tile screen after playing, and close de retroarch, when i open the game again my save data got lost, theres only "new game" option avaliable, any tips regarding this?

I've got a similar problem with Sonic Adventure which is weird since, though it's difficult to play, Sonic Adventure 2's Save Data is still present when I look. I had a similar problem with SA2 way back when I was getting sick of it but I don't know how I changed things back then and can't revert things now.
Guys, the current build has a bug with saves. You have to disable the "per game VMU" option, and for now use a shared VMU config for all games for the saves to work

Maybe because of its size? That's the only reason I can think of, even if it's not a good one. It can be easy to lose information in larger topics. Not that this is an especially large one.
Don't misinform people. CDI files work just as fine as other supported formats (i can't say for sure about the latest core ver. tho, cause i'm still using the one that fixes sa2 and soulcalibur).

Yes, but .gdis are more likely to work due to generally being more complete than .cdis.
What? More complete, what does it even mean? If your .cdi does't work, its a bad disk image (bad gdi rip). Formats don't really matter here, a game is a game and it has the same files "zipped" in a certain format either it's a chd, .cdi or .gdi + bin.

That's what I meant. Still, if one wants to save space, the best thing to do would be to take a .gdi and convert it to a .chd.
.CDI is a format created for burning onto regular CD-ROMs for use in an unmodded Dreamcast. GD-ROMs that commercial games were released on have a bit more storage space and high-budget games tended to use it, so scene hackers often had to compress assets to lower quality to fit onto CDs and therefore .CDIs.
In general .CDI should work but it is inferior as a ROM format for emulators precisely because the original files often had to be tampered with and reduced in quality. GDI gives you the original data and .CHD lets you compress them to a size comparable to CDI. So its just about always the better option if you have a choice.

Actually CDI is dirty and its only propurse is to run backups on real hw, clean redump format (GDI since redump moved to CUE format) or converted CHD is always recommended for flycast.
