Known Issues
Black Squares
- Status: Fixed
- Type: Minor
- Description: Black Squares appear behind weapons
- Workaround: Update to the latest nightly version of PCSX2.
Corrupt Flashbacks
- Status: Active
- Type: Major
- Description: Flashback Cutscenes are corrupt and you are unable to tell whats going on
- Workaround: Under "special game fixes" checking the "manual fix" box and "switch to software mode for cutscenes" or pressing F9 durring play, solves the issue
Vedan: Myna Out of bounds
- Status: Active
- Type: Major
- Description: Upon reaching Vedan: Myna, you may suffer a glitch where your character gets stuck to the roof of the map when passing over certain sections of the map, particularly on or around the railroad tracks. Sometimes the character will suddenly be thrown high into the air and fall back to the ground instead of going out of bounds.
- Workaround: Two changes to the default settings must be made to prevent this issue from occurring. First, under "Emulation settings", in the "EE/IOP" tab, find "Clamping Mode" and change it to "Full". Second, under "Emulation settings", in the "VUs" tab, find "Clamping Mode" and change it to "None". This workaround should only be used in Myna, because it will cause some minor graphical and audio glitches during certain cutscenes.
