*'''Alternative solution 1:''' Enable ''Logarithmic Z'' in GSdx options '''(Only appears in D3D9 Hardware and this seems to help only on some systems).'''
*'''Alternative solution 2:''' If the above does not work for you: use revision '''2842''', the game works perfectly with that (both with software and hardware renderer). You can read about it [http://code.google.com/p/pcsx2/source/detail?r=2853 here] or [http://web.archive.org/web/20150510060909/http://code.google.com/p/pcsx2/source/detail?r=2853 alternatively here]
** '''Update:''' It works better on PCSX2 1.2.1 than before. Switch from HW to SW and back to HW (with F9) for a temporary fix each time it still happens. Using r2842 is a bad idea to my opinion, the ghosts are invisible and it's a really buggy version.

 BIOS: USA 2.30, It works but the camera issue is a real serious problem. None of the workarounds ever truly worked for me in Hardware Mode so I had to resort to just playing this game in Software Mode to completely avoid the problem entirely. This is honestly the recommended thing to do because there's just too many issues with the camera in HW Mode. If you use one workaround you will cause another issue like invisible ghosts, etc. Ryudo

  • Type: Minor
  • Description: The negative FMV that is shown when you pick up the four stones isn't displayed properly.
  • Workaround: This has been resolved in recent PCSX2 versions. In older versions temporarily switch to Software mode with the F9 key to watch the FMV.

Camera doesn't focus on Ghosts

  • Status: Fixed
  • Type: Major
  • Description: The camera allows you to target ghosts and damage them (in battles), or take pictures of ghosts that only show up temporarily. This issue causes the camera to not lock on either type of ghost, making it nearly impossible to pass the fights or snap a shot of a random ghost.
  • Workaround: This has been resolved in recent PCSX2 versions. In older versions switch to Software mode by going to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and setting Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.
