=== {{s}}Background Layering{{/s}} ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
Background texture (thick clouds and moon) stays statically fixed in front of foreground and obstructs the view, making the game difficult to play.  Fixed by the zfreeze merger.
=== Post-Processing Effects ===
'''Store EFB Copies to Texture Only''' must be disabled to see post-processing effects (i.e. when using Charm ability).


=== {{s}}Audio Issues{{/s}} ===
=== Eternal Prison Distortion ===
Audio glitching on start screen, 2 to 3 seconds of music plays, then loops. Fixed with new AX-HLE merge.
The distortion effect on this level will not render correctly without '''Defer EFB Copies to RAM''' enabled.
