|Comments= Games Runs very well @1080 & 4k, Strangely the audio bug can not be fixed no matter what I try, I don't know whether its due to my new CPU (See my last test) or the fact im now using PAL but it seems any big area causes the audio to break when shifting. NOTE: Windscreen patch seems to work perfectly fine

|Comments= Games Runs very well (Can hit Solid 120-200FPS@4k), From what I've seen using the new 1.7 dev builds fixes the game breaking Audio bug so happy days, I get some unusual blurring and "vibrating" textures here and there (which also happened back on 1.6.0) that I can't seem to fix... Don't know how to properly describe the bug or what causes it so I won't put it into known issues. NOTE: Widescreen patch seems to work perfectly with the PAL version

|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=
|Description=In Hardware mode mipmapping issues cause several wall and character textures to appear distorted from a certain distance.
|Workaround=
|Workaround=This can be resolved by setting MipMapping to Basic or Full within the Graphics Settings [v1.5.0 and above], However using this workaround will cause textures to blur and flicker seemingly at random but this is a much better alternative than Having MipMapping Disabled

{{Issue
|IssueName=Broken audio which leads to a freeze after any cutscene
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=Transitioning from spectral realm to material realm can cause the audio to start glitching out at which point any cutscene will cause the game to freeze [https://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-Bug-Report-Legacy-of-Kain-Soul-Reaver-2-PAL as reported here]
|Workaround= For the 1.6.0 Stable Build Disabling Multi-Threaded microVU1 under speedhacks fixes the game freeze [This was seemingly completely Fixed in 1.7 upwards, See latest Dev/Nightly builds]
