Problems
Random Crashes with HLE audio
This game may crash randomly in-game. Fixed by 5.0-14626.
Black Sim Photo
In the game pause menu, a black square appears instead of the sim's photo. Unable to reproduce in the latest builds. Most likely an EFB2RAM requirement.
Censor Effect
Under Direct3D, the censor effect can cause slight graphical corruption. It will return back to normal when the censor effect is no longer on-screen. It can even crash Dolphin after a message box about "CreateTexture failed" or "Poke Z not implemented". Use OpenGL to avoid this problem.
The censor effect may cause VPS slow-down no matter what backend. Enable "Skip EFB Access from CPU" to fix this, although it will allow you to see your Sims like a nude Barbie doll. This also prevents graphical corruption under Direct3D. Fixed some time before 5.0-2462.
