Paper Mario Color Splash: Screen Mostly Black

[Ghostiethepainthero]

Current Behavior

I recently downloaded Color Splash to play, and after getting past the first cutscene, all the screen shows is the dialogue boxes and clouds. I use a Windows 10. I’m very new to Cemu/Emulators, so I’m not sure what happened.

Expected Behavior

All the assets to load/graphics to work

Steps to Reproduce

Boot up Paper Mario: Color Splash.

I couldn't figure out how to add photos so I'll add one right here:

The issue here is your laptop: it's too old to run Cemu.

[Ghostiethepainthero]

Ah, alrighty. Thank you!
