Description

I tested International Track and Field on Simple64, and it doesn't have this problem. The mupen64 plus core of Bizhawk is I guess outdated or something.

Try loading the game
It's a black screen forever.

Research direction

Reproduce the black screen by loading International Track and Field in BizHawk, then trace the Mupen64Plus core integration mentioned in the report. Compare the behavior with the stated Simple64 result and identify the relevant core or integration entry point before deciding what needs changing. Done means the game loads instead of remaining on a black screen.
