Depth buffer detection modifications

Sorry, I'm pretty new to all this, is there anyway to download a compiled build of your modification somewhere? I don't really understand all the Visual stuff it says we need to do on github. Wanna try this and see if it gets the depth buffer in PSO2 (Phantasy Star Online 2) working again. Last time it worked was in early 2018. Any depth of field effects blur the UI only, and stuff like MXAO just darkens the whole screen. I can't use the new path traced shaders either (their debug shows up as just a grey screen)
PSO2 uses DX9, here's what the display depth shows now in normal reshade.

Will look at other games dx12 games.

Yeahhh ! Super good news Oddly enough, on my rig, depth buffer works perfectly for Shadow Of the Tomb Raider.
I removed the checkbox for enabling the "Copy depth before clearing mode", so can you check this line in the Reshade.ini:
[DX12_BUFFER_DETECTION]
DepthBufferRetrievalMode=0

This parameter must be set to 0 in order for the depth buffer detection to work (it is a WIP version, so everything is not already in place).

DX9 is by far the most difficult API to make the depth buffer detection work, because you have to juggle between the depthstencil used by the appli and the one used by Reshade to replace it, and which not have the same format. This is because DX9 can only use one depthstencil at a time, and you have to use a hack to read the depth buffer information in a replacement depthstencil texture.

The pb here is to make the depth buffer detection generic enough to comply with the majority of the games.

It can unfortunately produce some artefacts in those old games due to the depthstencil replacement stuff.

That was it. It works now.

bioshock infinite it's dx10 with some dx11 features. reshade sees it as a dx11 game.
what should the video be about?

What say?))) There are many depth buffers in the game, but all of them, because of the black bars, are so stretched

Beyond two souls released for pc??

What about Devil May Cry 5 DX12? anyone checked?

EGS Beyond: Two Souls Demo.

Devil May Cry 5 dx12 no depth buffer everything is white

There is no depth buffer to choose even using the copy and extended

When the depth buffer is visible what actually in the picture is not what suppose to be. it's weird, like the depth buffer shows something else but the game shows other

About DX11 and Bladestorm nightmare
The issue with the artefact even happens with 3.4.1 as long copy depth buffer before clearing is selected.... will this ever get fixed??

Till and With 3.3.2 the depth buffer always worked automatically and picked the right one. with 3.3.2 Copy depth buffer is there but even though trying to check it there is only 1 depth buffer to choose and it's all black. with later version copy depth buffer detects more depth buffers but has the artefact.

Why with the later versions it can't detect the right depth buffer properly automatically?

Ah, it's a pity. Is there any option that help removing those bars and have the final rendering like the size of the viewport ?

No

Do not know if it will work (i do not have the game), but can you try this one ?

Hm, well I'd still love to give it a shot haha. Do you, or anyone else on here, have a compiled zip I can try?

Cool But it means my little modif in the last release does not fix it. Happy you found a solution

thalixte, so only crosir can fix the issue with copy depth buffer before clearing? or it's something that you can do?

Is it possible to fix the Devil May Cry 5 Depth buffer?

Thanks

I don't think there is any issue with the depth buffer before clearing. I guess the issue is in other parts of the code. You can take a look at this PR: github.com/crosire/reshade/pull/129 , if you want to see what can break the db detection in your case. Maybe i can fix it, or Crosire can, but i am working on the dx12 code now.

For Devil May Cry 5, we will see, but i would like to make the "copy depth buffer before clearing" work for dx12 too (and make it work would maybe solve the db detection for this game).

Not sure what to understand from the code.. but I hope someone gets the time to fix it because it's a very useful thing and sometimes that's the only thing that works and it would be impossible to play a game with the ghost thing, as it ruins all the QI
