Crash on the MAC OS X Build
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness will load successfully on MAC OS X however during the opening cutscene where XD001 is about to use Shadow Blast on the S.S. Libra the emulator crashes. In addition, when the battle between Greevil's henchman and Zook starts, the game crashes, although this is not specifically related to MACs. Furthermore the game crashes when you try to leave the building to try and save Professor Krane.

Note: As of the emulator no longer crashes on intro video on Macs. Testing for other crashes is not yet done.

Buggy Sound with OpenAL
When using OpenAL sound, sounds are very odd sounding. The screen after the Nintendo logo does not play it's sound on time. Changing the latency has no effect but does cause lag at lower values. This can be fixed by changing to DSound or XAudio2, at which point the audio sounds perfect and does not slow down the game.
