Black screen

A black screen without a title is not one bug. Issue 579 is Pokopia stuck on a black screen at 0 FPS right after loading. Issue 649 is Ocarina of Time drawing a black 3D scene. Issue 658 is an RX 580 with a black screen on that remake. Issue 641 is a crash before gameplay on an RX 6750 XT. A branch named fix/oot-blackscreen shipped as branch-fix-oot-blackscreen-17ac56ed on 6 Nov 2026, with seven emulator files and no PGO set. That branch is a lead for Ocarina, not a global graphics reset.

Issue 418 is Hyrule Warriors fully black in the second mission, in the depths. Build 158’s notes say gameplay renders again after skipped draws from missing shader lowerings. Build 202 is the later frame-rate pass, and an older compilation entry still says “boots, rendering is black” because it predates 202. Splatoon’s tutorial black screen is issue 96. Build 60 is the zero-filled glyph fix for dialogue text, which is a different black than a missing world.

Yoshi has a report of 60 FPS while the world outside menus stays black. Orbitals has a 3–10 FPS black screen on an RX 7900 XTX. I am not telling those people to install the Ocarina branch. Say the game, the mission or scene, the GPU and the driver. Switching the graphics backend is the handbook’s generic next try when the title-specific build does not match.
