Damn, I accidentaly found a visual glitch while testing XXL 2 performance

Martyste Tendertail

Like, one we have never seen before

Martyste Tendertail

I got it on tape

I think I'll call it... the "Photo mode" glitch. It's kinda similar, but not as amazing tho.

Martyste Tendertail

And perfect, it's just under 100MB

Apparently, in order to activate this glitch, you may pause the game during the end of the cutscene that plays when you select Caesar's challenge.

Basically, every character and entity is frozen in place, while still playing animations attached to them ( besides helmets and other particles )

Martyste Tendertail

However, all hitboxes are still perfectly functional, what a shame...

The glitch persists across loading different sectors, and lets you see things as if they were far away, as LOD doesn't update. ( And maybe this could unveil a reason of the game's generally poor performance, the textures never downgrade into mipmaps far away, unless i'm stupid and this isn't a costly thing )

Martyste Tendertail

It even persists upon death!

Martyste Tendertail

And loading different worlds as well.

I eventually crashed while completing another challenge. So, fun to mess with but risky.

I just noticed I put it all in speedrunning even tho we have no confirmation this would ever be useful for it >w<

Stinkek

mobile discord?

Martyste Tendertail

No, I simply didn't pay attention to which category I was writing in.

Filip5011

maybe you could change the channel name to like xxl2-remastered-sr

Filip5011

for all of the speedrun category

Martyste Tendertail

maybe... i'd want yarny's opinion on this first tho

Why is the framerate in this game so choppy?
