 {{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
+=== Light Glow ===
+Since {{revision|5.0-4703}}, light glow will not render correctly when '''EFB to texture only''' is enabled. Disabling it fixes the problem.
-=== Lighting and Shimmering Object Smears ===
+=== Underwater Rendering ===
+When diving underwater an effect should blur the distance. On Dolphin everything is rendered completely fuzzy. Refer {{Issue|9277}}. Only the software back-end renders correctly. Since {{revision|5.0-15294}} additional issues occur including a black bar obscuring the screen. refer {{Issue|12735}}.

+=== <s>Lighting and Shimmering Object Smears</s> ===
 Beams of light and shimmering objects, like faerie wings, can smear or be duplicated or otherwise corrupt graphics. Slightly different versions of the corruption are seen between OpenGL and DirectX. Refer {{Issue|6899}} and {{Issue|8317}}. Fixed by {{revision|5.0-4703}}.

-=== Underwater Rendering ===
-When diving underwater an effect should blur the distance. Under OpenGL everything is rendered completely fuzzy, while in DirectX nothing is. Refer {{Issue|9277}}. While only the software back-end renders correctly, the DirectX back-end is probably preferable.

 == Enhancements ==
+=== Blotchy Textures===
+Some textures are intended to be in an 18b rather than 24b format, which can cause banding across gradients or otherwise blotchy colors. Disabling '''Force 24-bit colour''' fixes the issue.
