Game Name? Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

Game ID? G8ME01

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong in few words.

In the Rogueport sewer when you hit the blue switch to reveal the stairs down toward the Thousand Year Door for the first time, Dolphin doesn't properly show the peeling effect of the door, and then freezes. The wall goes from plain wall to a wall with stairs instantly after a delay and the screen freezes.

What did you expect to happen instead?

The wall should peel away to reveal stairs and the game shouldn't freeze.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Go to the Rogueport sewer for the first time, to go to the TYD.
2. After fighting through a few enemies you have to hit a blue switch.
3. The issue appears here.

Which versions of Dolphin did you test on?

4.0-7318

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

Will try.

What are your PC specifications? (including, but not limited to: Operating
System, CPU and GPU)

Win7, Core2Quad 9450, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti.
