BIOS: USA v2.00, Needs a powerful machine to play right. The cutscenes are the biggest problem.
•Setting the SPU2-X Synchronizing Mode to "Async" may speed up the cutscenes but can cause stutter and out of sync problems in game., •Doesn't respond well to big resolutions. |

The game still has the same glitches that were present in 0.9.8. I would recommend switching to hardware mode for the cut scenes for the up-scaling benefits, but switching to software mode for the game play. Bios v 2.0 was used. | Zrooney |
Known Issues
Post-processing missing
- Status: Active
- Type: Minor
- Description: Post-processing is disabled in GSdx by default for this game due to huge slowdowns and bad glitches on screen.
- Workaround: Only software mode (F9) in GSdx plays the game correctly but it's much slower and uglier.
Black Spots
- Status: Active
- Type: Minor
- Description: Actually the problem is not the black spots in the jungle parts but the ambient/postprogress is not blending well so it appears overbright leaving the spots where it wouldn't blend as dark visible spots.
- Workaround: Only software mode (F9) in GSdx plays the game correctly but it's much slower and uglier.
