Grandia II graphical glitch question

Post by Vectorman0 »

I'm playing through Grandia II for the first time and encountered a graphical issue on items dropped after battles. It has happened several times so far, but probably less than once every two hours. Has anyone encountered this before? I'm curious if it's due to the game programming, GDEMU it is being played from, or something else.

Any insight would be appreciated.

It's not on the real retail gdrom release.. ether some rip problem or something else.. not in the programing.

In my opinion it comes from the games.
Probably a too long object name.

But who knows with dreamshell I never have this during french translation project I'm worked on.

I've probably put in five more hours of game time the past several days and it hasn't happened again.

I don't know which items it happens on, but it occurred with at least two different items. (because the item type icon next to the glitched text was different)

It happened to me again yesterday. (3-4 times in 20 hours of game time)

I checked my clone GDEMU, and it has the proper clock speed.

I don't have much more to add, but it will be interesting to see if in the future other people encountering this will find this thread and chime in.

If we have the item name, it will be easier to find the issue.
