I am using the Glide64mk2 video plugin with mupen64plus, but it looks like some of the pixels have incorrect alignment causing things to look weird and make most text completely unreadable. Is this a known issue or what settings can i try to change to fix it. The pics below are from Super Mario 64, but it happens with all games.

It looks completely fine with the rice video plugin.

Hi Brandon,

I just updated and built Mupen64Plus from source on my linux workstation and
it does not have these problems with Glide64mk2.

What version of Mupen64Plus are you running? Did you build it from source
code? Which OS are you running, and which version?

I am on Gentoo Linux and using the version in the main repo (2.5.9). I also tried building the third party GlideN64 plugin as some from the IRC suggested and I can confirm that it works perfectly so I can use that in the meantime. I will try building directly from GitHub rather than distro package manager later and report back.

Update: I compiled my own Glide64mk2 plugin directly from GitHub and it works just fine! So sorry to bother you with this. I should have tried this myself first. I honestly just thought I had a configuration issue or something. Had no idea the build was just bad. I'll have to do more digging into why the Gentoo build is messed up. I used master, so it's possible there was a bug fix in there between the Gentoo version and master, who knows. But either way, the issue is solved so have a good day!
