1.7.2128 | GS Software, D3D11, OpenGL | SPU2 (Async Mix) | Updated IPU patch included in GameDB automatic game-fixes greatly improves the graphical corruption issue, menus are easier to navigate and notes can be read just fine (with the exception of a few). Game speed is consistently high in software and hardware modes, no real performance issues staying close to or at 100%. | Nyahello |

Runs perfectly with only minor frame drops when alt+tabbing, switching between fullscreen and windowed, at random times or when there is a lot going on in-game. I've played many hours, almost done with Disc 1 at time of writing. Deinterlacing:(Auto) or it will have jittering parts of the screen (I have it set to Bob (Bottom Field First) to reduce the motion blur effect).
Texture and post-processing bilinear filtering are both set to OFF. Dithering: Scaled, CRC Fix Level: Aggressive to fix white lines on the right side of the screen, but disables the blurry, fading loading screen effect in exchange. 5x Internal Resolution for a sharp image, but this is mostly down to preference. |

Known Issues
Broken post processing
- Status: Active
- Type: Minor
- Description: When increasing internal resolution above 1x, post processing will become mis-aligned and fragmented. Bloom will separate into chunks and effects will never fully align. The worst case example being the first encounter with Tenkai when he casts his illusion, none of the hardware hacks properly handle this.
- Workaround: Set CRC hack level to aggressive. It will remove most of the post processing entirely, including the area/door transition effect (unfortunately).
Fixed Issues
- Status: Fixed
- Type: Minor
- Description: Bad graphics that are seen in the intro and in the in-game menus.
- Workaround: Update to the latest nightly version of PCSX2.
