[QUOTE="bubble2k16, post: 7662557, member: 396473"] I have encountered zero sound from time to time when loading a new game, or when switching back from the pause menu to the game. Normally I'll just tap the bottom screen to open the menu and close it to go back to the again. Haven't really figured out why. This problem happens because of, as you pointed out: in-frame palette changes. Unfortunately, because we are using the 3DS GPU hardware to render textures, it's not able to handle mid-frame palette changes very well. This game produces the gradient effect by changing the palette colours every scan line. When you turn on the option to allow in-frame palette changes, the hardware render reacts to changes in the palette colours at the end of every scan line by re-colouring the textures to the newly updated palettes, and then renders the textures for every line. This causes the frame rate to tank. What's worse: because of the way the hardware renderer works, you don't get a nice smooth gradient effect like in an actual SNES. And it is probably causing the "glitch" you are referring to. The only way to fix this is to have a software renderer... (that will likely run with a decent frame rate only on a new 2DS/3DS) Not my priority now... but if I have time I may look into it; just not so soon. :) [/QUOTE]

Only thing drive me crazy is all these new horror games nowadays is its so dark, all time. I can't even play them. I understand they trying to create spooky but be creative a little, not just darkness with pop out scare scenes.
