Known Issues:
Post-processing missing
Post-processing is disabled in GSdx by default for this game due to huge slowdowns and bad glitches on screen.
- Solution: Only software mode (F9) in GSdx plays the game correctly but it's much slower and uglier.
Black Spots
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.
- Solution: Only software mode (F9) in GSdx plays the game correctly but it's much slower and uglier.
