My mistake, is not even working in 6110. As a reference, other games like Crystal Defenders and the newer Blaster Master Overdrive are working with copy to RAM selected.

I can confirm that copy to RAM causes the blank screen issue in r7434.
DX9 and OpenGL renderers work fine with copy to texture, DX11 causes graphics glitches even before starting the game and sometimes totally scrambled output. It seems that this issue needs reopening. I hope this info helps. You can see attached screenshot.

I can confirm this as well. EFB to Ram after the "start game" button is pushed, the screen is black and goes to 0fps. EFB to Texture works normally.

I can confirm this is still happening in 4.0-1533

This is a GPU synchronization issue much like F-Zero GX and many other games.

Using single core + EFB2Ram works fine.

Not sure this should be accepted or merged into something else?

Going to make a judgment call and merge this with the "dualcore is unstable" master issue. Anyone else with issue rights can override me if you disagree.
