Problems
Invisible Characters
This game uses a niche GCN feature known as ZCompLoc. Without this feature characters are invisible. A hack has existed since 3.0-505, but a proper implementation of ZCompLoc was added to OpenGL in 3.5-1649 to D3D11 in 3.5-1729. The new implementation requires OpenGL 4.2+ or Direct3D11 compatibility, and D3D9 is incapable of supporting it. If your system or backend cannot support the proper implementation, a warning will appear, and Dolphin will fall back to the old ZCompLoc hack. Problems may still occur while using the hack. See issue 4881, issue 4841, ZCompLoc forum thread, ZCompLoc testing thread.
