Missing Sound

3MS Async Mix, then switch to Timestretch on the title screen.)

Objects Needed Not in Place

• Status: Active
• Type: Minor
• Description: Some objects needed for progression don't appear where they should.

Bad Graphics

• Type: Minor
• Description: Missing floors or bad colors. Side effect from the patches.

Volk City Volkan Inferno And Dark Sea of Tears are the most likely to crash without the patch. Other Levels may load and be completely playable.

• Workaround: Turn off automatic game fixes, and re-activate them whenever a level needs it.

Some Reflections Bugged

• Status: Active
• Type: Minor
• Description: Reflections on cannons the wind ring and other objects are bugged
• Workaround: Set VU1 clamping mode to Extra or Extra+Preserve Sign.
