So both freezing and black screen with "Store EFB Copies to Texture Only" disabled happen on the same PR?

Does it work on 4.0-7626 with "Store EFB Copies to Texture Only" disabled?

This game has always been broken in dualcore. Just use single core and both EFB2Tex and EFB2RAM will work fine. It's just a slight behavior change in the crash.

Because EFB Copies to RAM always crashed and now EFB Copies to Texture is acting more like EFB Copies to RAM, the fact it crashes on EFB Copies to texture is probably a good thing. Using single core will alleviate all issues regardless, so, I'm going to merge this into the dualcore timing issues issue.
