Your answers are there!]
[Leave the questions as they are and answer them in the next line]
[Remove lines written inside brackets [], but nothing else]

Game Name?
Super Paper Mario

Game ID?
R8PE01

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.
When taking a pipe, using the "ladders" (not real ladders but you hop into a box, and it rotates you from place to place til the "ladder" ends), or when switching screens, a phantom mario appears on the screen.
Also, certain power ups you get don't produce the animations.
Finally, the Pixls that you get, when you get Thoreau, he may just disappear randomly when entering a new area, or using him. After this, he is no longer selectable and you'll have to reenter the area and hope he comes back.

What did you expect to happen instead?
The game to work as there shouldn't be any major glitches.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
[Don't assume we have ever played the game and know any level names. Be as
specific as possible.]

  1. Progress through the beginning steps of the game until you see a pipe which will reproduce the issue. Shouldn't take long since it's a mario game and there are lots of pipes.
  2. At about 10 minutes in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aM4H1FeGfrE after all of the cut scenes, entering any of the buildings in the first town should show a transparent/black mario in the middle of the screen which is not intended.
    3.

Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?
4.0-4744

Does using an older version of Dolphin solve your issue? If yes, which
versions of Dolphin used to work?
Yes, 4.0-4428

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)
i7-4770k
8GB RAM
HD7950
Windows 8.1

Is there any other relevant information? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files)

I believe I read about this on the forums as being the joining of the two bounding box systems.

Also under this game in 4.0-4428, there are random crashes. Not sure what causes them as it hasn't been anything specific I've done each time.
In the 4.0-4744 these random crashes seem to be fixed though and just has the graphical errors and the Thoreau Pixl disappears.

You'd have to bisect the random crashes or get us a core dump for that to be useful information.
