Cannot Reproduce, was able to play through the intro fine.

Can this be reopened?

The only reason the game is working is because the issue was worked around, you had changed the gameINI to disable the JIT Follow Branch

https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/7270

This is not a proper fix and this proves there is a bug in the branch following code. There is at least one other game broken by this change too.

NB: To reproduce quicker just load a save game in free play mode and enter a "shop" from the free roam mode.

Does this still happen? There have been JIT fixes since then.

Actions #7

Updated by ZephyrSurfer about 2 years ago

Yes it's still broken and not the only game broken either.

Tested with 5.0-17889

Actions #8

Updated by ZephyrSurfer about 2 years ago

To avoid ambiguity, currently on latest dev version it works by default but it does not work with the "JITFollowBranch" workaround removed from the gameINI.
