So in my FFVII game evrything runs fine except for when i get to battles. The window on the bottom, that should list the characters and list of options like attack in stuff, is black. Theres one lone rectangle of the blue ur supposed to see but the rest is black. I can still see the characters and the enemies just not the window on the bottom.

Use Eternal SPU

async, smooth

still having problems with sound. only happens when i go into battle tho. help?

 

[masta.g.86]

Most likely your frame rate is fluctuating and causing the audio to lag as well.

You can try changing from 'smooth' to 'wait' in Eternal SPU or post your GPU info and graphics plugin config and we could try and figure it out from there.
