There's this footage on YouTube from 15 years ago that seems to have the same exact problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-f5pFWacekU

Can't find any other video like this or replicate it on hardware.

Looks like that was Wii/PS2 footage. Somehow we have the same exact bug from the old version of the cutscene??

This seems to happen when the delta time is too stable. Suffering from success.
I'm gonna assume it also happened on Wii/PS2 footage because they recorded them with a fixed delta time.

The bug seems to originate from the SparkleData entry named m3_03_saidanlight_02.
Setting the scale of this to 0 fixes the effect glitching to black. However it also removes the blue glowing effect.

Note

This SparkleData entry might be present across multiple XML files in the event ARs.

Note

evrt_t0_01 corresponds to the Spagonia Temple cutscene.
