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.

Many prefer the GameCube version because it doesn't have mandatory Wii waggle motion controls and the GameCube version has free camera control. The GameCube version can also be hacked from 4:3 to 16:9 widescreen, along with some other useful codes (see Config below).

=== <s>Hyrule Field Slow Down</s> ===
As the player progress through the game, Hyrule Field will become progressively slower. See {{issue|720}} and {{issue|2499}}. Previously, the "ZTP Hack" could be used to improve this issue. This patch has since been integrated into to the game's ini file. Fixed by {{revision|4.0-1767}}.
=== <s>D3D Darkness</s> ===
With the D3D graphics backend the lens flare from the sun is glitched. When looking at the sun through trees of buildings, part of the effect shows through, displaying a small lens flare and an overall darkening of the screen. Only the D3D backend has this problem, so use OpenGL to avoid it. See {{issue|5999}}. Fixed by {{revision|4.0-1487}}.

=== Widescreen Hack ===
=== Widescreen Hack ===
Enabling Dolphin's widescreen hack function will cause reflections to be buggy and certain objects to disappear at the edges of the screen.

<!-- General wiki conventions keep widescreen hack problems out of config and problem areas, cause the widescreen hack is a "use at your own risk" option. However, this page is an exception to that since lots of people want to use Dolphin to make this game behave like the Wii version, so putting it here helps minimize questions about it on the forums. -->


Instead, use one of the following AR Codes instead. Remember to turn on "Enable cheats" in Dolphin's config and use the "Force 16:9" or "Stretch to window" Aspect Ratio.
