Bug Description

Water displays incorrectly, appears as tiled squares with spaces inbetween rather than a uniform surface. Also has HUD issues and cannot be run at other than 1x resolution

Also, while searching for previous posts on this game I found another post, and these issues still apply, too

"This game suffers from pop-in and weird shadows on the foliage. Also, the pause menu has margin artefacts"

As previously mentioned, running it at anything over 1x resolution is problematic, the game jitters and both video and audio are broken up badly to the point where it's completely unplayable.

I LOVE this game, and recently discovered I can play emulators using PARSEC with friends. I can't play my old xbox online any more, so this is a godsend and I hope that LINKS 2004 can be got working soon!

Thanks for all your work on this emulator!

Expected Behavior

Water should be a smooth, continuous plane.
