Europe v01.70(27/02/2003), MTVU, INTC Spin Detection, Enable Wait Loop Detection, mVU Flag Hack, Goes from Ingame to Playable. Game works fine at a good speed, very dark however due to light being removed via CRC patch. I recommend you enable Shadeboost and put the brightness slider to about 85 to achieve the brightness seen in the screenshot above.	refraction

Known Issues

Semi-transparent images

• Status: Active
• Type: Serious
• Description: Reflections and/or semi-transparent images can cover the screen at random.
• Workaround: Set Skip Draw to 3 under HW Hacks to remove the effect. This causes a couple minor rendering issues but fixes the larger problem. For the PAL version, use Shadeboost to set the Brightness to ~85.
