Description

Hi when playing Starfox, on the transition screens there seems to be CPU framebuffer type garbage that is not present when using the mupen core?

Not 100% of screens but have tested several times with both cores

Research direction

Reproduce Starfox transition screens with parallel-n64 and the Mupen core, as described in the report. Compare the framebuffer output during affected transitions; the work is done when the scrambled display no longer appears in parallel-n64.
