After updating to 5755, which nicely fixes the skybox issue on SMG2 and light rays in TLoZTP, I noticed something that apparently was there before but less prevalent.
This may be in other games as well but I just noticed it in SMG2 in World #1, where the surrounding sky is blue and cloudy. If you look at the skybox or even the planet underneath, there are some obvious seam lines delineating the triangles that make up the background.
I have narrowed down the issue to MSAA and happens regardless of internal resolution being rendered. This does not happen without AA or when using SSAA.
The problem was present on the previous version I was using (r5636) but was much less noticeable and I only realized it after looking very closely while trying to narrow down the cause of the issue. I suspect the new mipmap code that fixes the skybox makes the issue more obvious.
You can see some comparisons below:
Skybox 3xIR 4xMSAA r5636
Issue present close to the light band in the middle but not very noticeable.
Skybox 3xIR 4xMSAA r5755
Issue present and much more noticeable.
Save Select 3xIR 4xMSAA r5755
Issue present but a bit hard to see in screenshot.
Save Select 3xIR NO AA r5755
Issue not present without AA.
Should I submit a but report or is this a known issue?
