|Comments=Menus have been fixed and now show up properly in Hardware mode. There are still some other texture issues occurring during gameplay though such as tires showing up in bright white and some random flickering textures on the cars/distant objects. This game is still as demanding as it ever was. Both EE and GS are taking quite a hit during the more crowded parts of the game, and even with my current hardware I did notice some dips here and there during those parts. Overall it's definitely playable now at least, but quite a demanding game. | |||

|Workaround=Fixed in recent revisions of PCSX2. (1.6.0 or above). For older versions: Go to Config -> Video (GS) -> Plugin Settings, turn on "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable "Preload Frame Data". This will trigger several depth issues though. To avoid those issues temporarily switch to Software mode instead by pressing F9 to view the menus, or go to Config -> Video (GS) -> Plugin Settings and set the ''Renderer'' to any of the (Software) options to never run into this issue. | |||

|IssueLevel=0 | |||
|Description=The wheels of the cars (and sometimes cars themselves) will show up in white instead of the proper textures. This occurs in Software mode as well. Additionally, car textures might flicker sometimes too. | |||
|Workaround=The white wheels are now fixed as of '''v1.7.3805''' or by setting the VU1 Rounding to Nearest. No solution for the flickering textures yet. | |||
