WWE '13 [BLUS31015]

RPCS3 Version: 0.0.17-0aa1aff6 Alpha
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core
GPU: Radeon RX 580

Ingame. When you load into a match the framerate slows down to speeds below 10 FPS consistently, the wrestlers are dyed red, and upon completion of a match, the game crashes after showing you the highlights.
Special Note: Unless you lock the framerate, menu navigation is extremely difficult due to the framerate going well above 300. Or, at least, I think that's what causes it.

RPCS3 Build: 0.0.24-14187-8485afa3 | master

Match speed has improved considerably, moving from below 10 FPS to low to mid 30s, wrestlers still look weird, but they are no longer died red like their name was Kane, matches can be 100% finished and no longer crash after highlights.

Potentially a candidate for the Playable category.

Howdy y'all, updating for January 2023.

Currently running RPCS3 0.0.20-13138-61d98526 Alpha (I know its a bit behind, but several other games have been breaking post-this version). For systems spec reference I'm running on a Windows 11, IntelCore i-7 12700, and an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060.

Game runs about the same as WWE '12, for the same mysterious reasons. I'm not certain what it is, even after tinkering with multiple settings and render modes. Models aren't lit up like copper Christmas trees, but they're lubed to hell and have genuinely awful shadowing. Unlike WWE '12, WWE '13 has a 50/50 chance to crash after the match, which is better than '12's always crash after a match issue. Still not sure what to do to solve it as it gives the same error as '12 did.

"E SYS: 'sys_fs_unlink' failed with 0x80010006 : CELL_ENOENT, NULL [2]" 

Anyways, it's an in-game game for certain, not playable by any realistic means. Runs fine with framelimiter and all that jazz. Enjoy cursed CM Punk, attached below.

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 580 w/ 8 GB of VRAM

Tested using a 1 on 1 match, default rules, no title on the line.

Menus run with no issues at 60 fps, entrances/in-game cutscenes run at or just below 30, matches hover around the low 30s to mid 40s. 

Wrestlers still look like they got a resin coat all over them both in game and during the entrances/cutscenes, but they aren't red like in WWE 12, for example.

Able to complete a match and get back to the menu without it crashing on me.

Unfortunately it still needs to be kept in the "Ingame" category for the time being.
