In '''''The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess''''', the next chapter in [[:Category:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|The Legend of Zelda series]], Link can transform into a wolf to scour the darkened land of Hyrule. With the help of Midna, a mysterious being, you must guide Link through hordes of foul creatures and challenging bosses using new moves and a new horseback combat system. Many puzzles stand between Link and the fulfillment of his quest, so you must sharpen your wits as you hunt for weapons and items.

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-187|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.8 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti|result=Perfectly ~30FPS (60Hz) with Direct X (3D11), 1920*1080, 16/9 Hack, Internal Resolution x4 (maximum), Anti-Aliasing 4x (quality 16), Anisotropic 16x (maximum). Just Water effects with 16/9 widescreen bug (it does not matter)|tester=Sanitarium026}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-204|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i7-870 @ 2.93 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 470|result=Perfectly ~30FPS (60Hz) 1920*1080, Default settings and the following: MMU speed hack + ZTP hack + custom projection hack, Anti-Aliasing 4x, Anisotropic 1x, Everything works great. Been playing half the game and the only freezes are random when howling as a wolf (solved by saving state before howling and retrying several times). Small issue: Music volume is much higher than SFX|tester=salkinrawr}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-235|OS=Mac OS X 10.7.3|CPU=Intel Core i5 @ 2.7 GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 6770M|result=Fully playable with constant 100% speed and 30FPS at 2.5x Native resolution.|tester=Swiftwinter}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-369|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-2500 @ 3.8 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460|result=Running at mostly 30FPS, occasionally dipping down to around 27-28 in Hyrule Field. Using D3D9 at 1080p and on JITIL experimental recompiler, DSP HLE, 2x native internal resolution, 9x SSAA AA and 16x AF. EFB copies to RAM, disable External Frame Buffer, check Fast Mipmaps, Disable Per-Pixel Depth, OpenMP Texture Coder and Enable Progressive Scan.|tester=penguinswithpie}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-371|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-750 @ 2.67 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460|result=Fully playable (and enjoyable!) with 27-31FPS, except I didn't fix the intro making garbage audio, but reloading a save did the trick for the rest of my play through so far. Rarely hear an unusual beeping noise in game, but nothing too annoying. Also, before configuring Dolphin accordingly, during the intro, both characters had body parts/clothing flashing bright yellow occasionally; no idea how i fixed it but it's gone. Using JIT Recompiler with D3Dlevel at 9, EFB copies RAM w/o Cache enabled. Texture Cache Accuracy is at Fast. EFB is at Virtual, else the output was very low-res. I also skip EFB Access from CPU and no glitches happened so far when enabled. Force Texture Filtering is enabled. Framelimit is at Auto and Limit by FPS is off. Audio Back-end is DSound with DTK music enabled. Overall, using most settings recommended for optimal results.|tester=MrBucket}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-371|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i3-530 @ 2.93 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti|result=Roughly a constant 30FPS. There are slowdowns in big/busy areas, but so far the FPS never went below 20. Tested using D3D9 video back-end, 1920x1080 resolution, 3x native internal resolution, no AA, 16x AF, EFB copy to texture (My game always freezes when using EFB copy to RAM for some reason.), texture cache accuracy is fast, no XFB, and skip EFB access from CPU is on. ZTP speedhack is enabled, and I get 23-27FPS on Hyrule Field, with no slowdowns. I haven't experienced any issues with the audio. XAudio2 with DTK music enabled.|tester=Orang}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-766|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 @ 3.01 GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 4890|result=Overall runs well with 28-30FPS in most areas. Hyrule field slows down to between 15-20FPS, and a few other places (such as Hyrule castle town) are also slow, but so far completely playable. However, I have only been able to run it using DSP HLE - using LLE, performance is so poor the game is unplayable (and LLE on thread just makes it crash). As a result, audio volume levels vary wildly from what they're meant to be, and occasionally the sound glitches out completely, requiring a full restart of the game to fix - not regularly enough to be a really major problem though.|tester=Bob2004}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-774|OS=Debian 7|CPU=Intel Core i7-2700 @ 3.4 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti|result=Runs well, fully playable at 30FPS and 100% speed. Only slight slowdown in Hyrule Field (slows to approx. 90% speed). The rest of the game runs well with no other problems. In a strange note, running with ZTP Hack ''disabled'' actually makes Hyrule Field faster (90% with it disabled as opposed to 60%-70% enabled).|tester=Zed}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.5|OS=Windows 7|CPU=AMD FX-6300 @ 3.5 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti|result=The game runs at full 30FPS most of the time. In heavy areas like Gerudo Desert the FPS can drop slightly to 27FPS when a lot is happening on the screen otherwise they run on 30FPS. The fully unlocked Hyrule Field drops to 18-20FPS (overclocking the CPU to 4.1 GHz brings a slight boost of 2FPS to about 21 but isn't really worth it; ZTP hack is recommended, without it Hyrule Field runs at only 14 (!) FPS). EFB setting is set to ''Texture'' however there aren't any problems with the minimap or anywhere else in the game (unless you change the setting while the game is running). AA is turned off and AF is set to ''1x''. Otherwise completely playable.|tester=TowerTowel}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-3570K @ 3.6 GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 7850|result=With ZTP Hack Enabled, and DirectX9 Backend, Runs Perfectly|tester=Caboose700}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0.1|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-3570K @ 4.4 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460|result=OpenGL backend has performance issues but DirectX 11 runs fine. Bloom is not rendered correctly. Shadows render low resolution. Frame rate is not consistent. Game is playable but doesn't look very good. Heat effect is rendered blurry and low resolution.|tester=Kilobytez95}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0.1|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i5-2500K @ 3.3 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti|result=DirectX 11 performs better than OpenGL. HLE DSP has problems but LLE DSP causes slowdowns. Game is just playable (drops to 25FPS) with DirectX11 and LLE DSP.|tester=Dtech}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0.2|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Celeron G1610 @ 2.6 GHz|GPU=Intel HD Graphics|result=I've been retrieving Epona. I couldn't get the minimap to work properly though. No other bug. Almost playable : 20FPS|tester=hivaoa}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0.2|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core-i5-4670K @ 3.8 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760|result=Runs quite nicely, no lag as far I played, but make copies of your saves!! Sometimes while loadings, Dolphin crashes and the ENTIRE card goes corrupted. Widescreen hack also glitches graphical effects. Bloom effect goes buggy if you go above native resolution|tester=MagicrafT}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0.2|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core-i5-3450 @ 3.1 GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTS 450|result=Runs perfectly to up to 3x Standard Resolution on this mid-range computer. I have standard settings in Dolphin. There is just one performance issue I could report so far (being about the middle of the game): If you have the standard DSP on HLE, there won't be any lag in the game, but the music is louder than FX sounds, which sometimes can be annoying. If you use DSP LLE, the loudness of FX and music is reproduced like it should be, but I experienced alot of lag in almost any sequence and on fields around Hyrule - I don't have these issues on DSP HLE though. I run at 3x native resolution, setting it to 1x native doesn't change the lags in any way on DSP LLE. So I stayed with HLE. |tester=Heimdall}}

{{testing/entry|revision=5.0-37|OS=Windows 10|CPU=Intel Pentium E5700 @ 3 GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 7700|result=Game works perfectly. Always @30FPS. Config : Direct3D 11, 1920x1080, IR 3x (1080p), Per-pixel lightning, Hyrule fields speed hack, No AA, 1x AF. Tested with a Dualshock 4.|tester=berdish1}}

{{testing/entry|revision=5.0-282|OS=Windows 10|CPU=AMD A6-5200 @ 2 GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 8400|result=The game is always in 10-20FPS when you enter in a dungeon (especially in the goro mines), 15-20FPS when you encounter an NPC and 10FPS on the cinematics. The only time that the game goes in 30FPS is when you don't have any NPC near or effects such as water, lava, explosions or fire. Used Direct3D 11, No AA, 1xAF, used Hyrule Speed Hack, used DSP with LLE and native res.|tester=Twenty One}}
