- I'm not actually entirely sure, but I'd suspect it's related to how UV coordinates work in GX. Does that happen with other GameCube/Wii games, or is it only TXTR? --Parax0 (talk) 09:21, 23 January 2015 (CST)
- As far as I'm aware, it's just TXTR/Retro games. Every non-Retro game I know of has right-side-up textures when dumped through Dolphin. Bearborg (talk) 09:25, 23 January 2015 (CST)
