I've recently discovered shader sampling bug on r12p1 on S7 series. Looks visually similar to what we previously had on r7p0.
Reproducing issue
Scenario 1.
Dolphin emulator:
http://dl.dolphin-emu.org/builds/dolphin-master-5.0-600.apk
Homebrew demo:
Neo Tanks - WiiBrew
Unzip downloaded archive, in Dolphin set path to unpacked folder and choose boot.dol, swipe right to a folder icon, run boot.dol.
Screenshots:

I'm currently testing OpenGL ES 3.2 v1.r12p1-03dev0.cdba6cdc48f1c2d36952923a6bbafbbf
Noticed regressions.
1. WoT Blitz now having issues with shaders on this revision (no issues on previous revision

Should be fairly easy to replicate, though for Dolphin I suggest NeoTanks open-source homebrew
