Problems

Opening Logos and Pre-rendered Cutscenes Crash

During the opening logos, the game crashes. The pre-rendered cutscenes also crash sometimes. The crash can be slightly delayed by underclocking the CPU under Config \ Advanced \ Enable Emulated CPU Clock Override to 74% or lower. Fixed since at least 5.0-21041.

Pre-rendered FMVs Glitches

The pre-rendered FMVs appear glitched unless Manual Texture Sampling is turned on.

Incorrect emulation (Default settings)

Correct emulation (Manual Texture Sampling on)
