The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie is a video game based on the film of the same name. It was created on the same engine as SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom.

Problems

Echoing Audio Playback Glitch in Freezer Room (Goofy Goober Level)

When you enter a "Freezer" type area (where you will see ice-cream, and ice around) the game will start making all sounds echo. Whenever the player talks (in this case Patrick) the voice will sound choppy/distorted, but once you exit the area then the effect will turn off, and the problem will go away as well. Even while using LLE the issue still persists, I tried it on my GC, but the audio all sounds the way it should. It is also notable that if you break any boxes/breakable objects it will cut off any other audio that is playing at the time (player lines, music, etc).

Here is a recording of the bug, and you'll notice how when I break things the other audio is silenced (briefly).

Invisible Platforms

On the level "Bubble Blowing Baby Hunt", a few raising platforms are invisible. They are still there, so it's possible to pass, however it requires you to jump onto these platforms with little idea as to where they stop, making it easy to fall into the lava below you. This isn't too big a problem, as springs underneath the invisible platforms are still present to show you where the middle of these platforms are.

Some Videos Won't Display

Anything that isn't in-game (meaning that it is just a video within the game) might turn black/blank. To fix this, set 'External Frame Buffer (XFB)' to 'Real'.

Enhancements

Ground Glitches

On anything above 1x Anisotropic Filtering makes the ground glitch to rather large see through triangles, although it's not too noticeable and isn't anything to really take away from the gaming experience. On 1x Anisotropic Filtering this glitch is not present. In addition to the former, there is a transparent box in the upper-left hand corner of the screen (using OpenGL will have a small transparent line in place though), and other minor visual problems (flickering objects occasionally).

Fix Red Triangles

This game has graphical glitches with higher internal resolutions including a box in the upper-left and messed up shadows that can be fixed with an AR Code.

16:9 Aspect Ratio Fix

This game has clipping issues with the widescreen hack that can be fixed with a Gecko Code. The PAL (German) Version of this code was made by Ralf.

Test Entries
Revision OS CPU GPU Result Tester
3.0-716 Intel Core i3-370m ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 The game is (so far) very playable with a good amount of glitches, in which these glitches are very small and only one of them is well noticeable. JuCstin
3.0-763 Windows 7 Intel Core i3-2100 NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 x2 Instant Crash at start up. Cannot play. To be more specific, newer versions of Dolphin have been giving me backpatch errors which will ultimately end the game. Disabling Panic Headers appears to stop this, but the game crashes still. AnonSVN
4.0.1 Windows 7 Intel Core i5-2500K AMD Radeon HD 7850 The game runs near flawlessly, with nearly no visual or audio errors. This was tested with a D3D11 backend, no AA and 1x Anisotropic Filtering. Internal resolution was auto, and HLE audio backend was enabled. DrDoctor13
4.0-2012 Windows 7 AMD FX-4130 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Black screen even with original settings 65.128.172.150
4.0-2384 Windows 8.1 Intel Core i3-2120 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 9600 GSO 512 Black screen even with original settings 159.63.150.131
4.0-6266 Windows 8.1 Intel Core i5-4690K @ 4.2GHz AMD Radeon 270x Black screen even with original settings 159.63.150.148
5.0-466 Windows 10 AMD FX-4130 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 I played it all the way to I'm Ready Depression and I got to say, I just upgraded and the FPS greatly improved. I don't lag as much as I used to and I stay at a very steady 60 FPS. I used some custom settings to remove most the glitches. 174.53.128.166
