The japanese version suffers from flickering/corrupted textures in the distance...
Is the US version unaffected?

Does the unscale point hw hack fix the dark cut-scenes too?

Just tested, unscale point removes dark cut-scenes with renderer OpenGL (Hardware).

cool Good to know! usually that will work for any game with cutscenes that look dark with loads of small dots

Bugs, Issues & Solutions:
*Disable Large Framebuffer for this game, especially when upscaling in high resolutions, to avoid 90%+ slowdowns when underwater.
*When upscaled, enabling the Unscale Point Line hack alone, in GSdx Settings > Enable HW Hacks,
might not work in fixing the black FMVs, so enable the Gamefix mentioned above.
*Only minor flickering with textures sometimes, usually at a distance; but can be very noticable in certain levels, such as The Lost Valley, but generally not frequent;
Can be fixed by switching to Software mode.
*Some minor misalignment with certain texts, I haven't learned how to fix this, but wasn't a big deal overall.
*No other major issues, running in OpenGL Software mode pretty much has no apparent issues.
