Description

Summary

For some reason, I can't start up the game normally. When I try to start a new game, it gets stuck on a black screen. The game is clearly playable, because the game demos start up when I wait on the title screen, but there's something blocking me from actually playing.
Loaded Core: Mupen64Plus

Repro

1: Start up the game
2. Select a new file
3. Select either of the 2 available characters

Host env.
  • BizHawk 2.7.0; Win11 Pro, Intel/NVIDIA

Research direction

Reproduce the issue in BizHawk 2.7.0 using the Mupen64Plus core on Windows 11 with the listed Intel/NVIDIA setup, following the three reported steps. Compare starting a new file with the title-screen demos and verify that either character can proceed past the black screen when fixed.
