Hou Plus Known Issues

# Scene/Chapter specific issues

## Secret Saikoroshi Staff Room

### Music seems louder than it should be

- For some reason, the music in the secret Saikoroshi staff room seems louder than usual.

## Mehagashi

### Cicada ambience doubled/too loud in mehagashi/plays at wrong time?

- #9

# Other General Issues

## Images which need resizing to 16:9:

See orian's comment: https://github.com/07th-mod/hou-plus/issues/7#issuecomment-2015397179

- effect/title02 and effect/title02_j.png
- there's also the chapter start menu, and menu background that are 4:3
- so they show a black border I think?
- omake/ images too

## Text window sometimes not covering whole screen and/or inversion effect issue

Won't fix for now, affects all chapters when there is something overlapping the edge of the screen, see https://github.com/07th-mod/higurashi-assembly/issues/64#issuecomment-2015068024

Also when inversion effect applied, the edges of the screen turn white

## Bus stop text window has no fade in/out (instantly appears/disappears) (Not a bug?)

This is not a bug (probably) - The vanilla Mangagamer game sets instant fade in/out for Bus Stop only (in `flow.txt`).

```
SetWindowFadeTime(0); //instant
SetWindowFadeOutTime(0); //instant
```

Won't fix unless this is a mistake on Mangagamer's side and it should actually have fade in/out.

# Low Priority Issues

## Missing portrait (zoomed in) images.

https://github.com/07th-mod/hou-plus/blob/4d94808abcfa45f18c9fde45e75f58359bf8e6e4/Update/mehagashi.txt#L7362 btw @drojf kinda lateral to the CG editing, there were 2 portraits missing that I had to cut

> caused by the switch probably handling portraits in engine?

Re-create these zoom sprites by zooming/cropping the original sprites I guess

## Fix typo in UI image

> Typo. It's "Okinomiya."


## Button text loses outline when hovered over

I've noticed this as well. When you initially see the buttons, they have an outline. But if you hover over the button, the outline disappears and stays like that. Definitely an engine bug (probably not refreshing the outline value that is set in the game script). Might be coincidentally fixed via font update, make sure to apply that first.


## Switching graphics presets at certain times causes grey overlay/text window background to disappear

To reproduce:

1. Open Omake -> Secret Staff Room-> Matsuribayashi
2. Setup screen such that you can easily press F10 and then click "Mangagamer" preset
3. Just when any transition effect happens, press F10 and click "Mangagamer"
4. You should get a grey screen in NVL mode and the text window background will disappear (a grey screen usually indicates a miss-loaded texture

Unfortunately this will remain this way until you toggle the preset, or restart the game.

You'll also get these messages on the log, but unsure if related.

## Loading a save with a different text position (ADV/NVL) resets text position

If you make a save on ADV mode, then switch to NVL mode, then load the ADV mode save, the text will be stuck at the bottom of the screen.

## Various music room issues

See:
- https://github.com/07th-mod/hou-plus/issues/8

This is a tracking issue listing many separate bugs and known issues for a game mod. Each sub-issue (e.g., music volume, image resizing, UI typos, engine bugs) requires investigation in different parts of the codebase. Start by reading the linked comments and issues, such as #9 and the higurashi-assembly comment. Determine which specific problem is actionable and locate the relevant asset files (like effect/title02.png) or script files (like flow.txt).
