===Frame Buffer Effect=== | ===Frame Buffer Effect=== | ||
Referring to {{issue|4317}}, the game uses some sort of frame buffer effect that looks quite bad on high resolutions, creating pixelated ghosting and an annoying blurred look. | Referring to {{issue|4317}}, the game uses some sort of frame buffer effect that looks quite bad on high resolutions, creating pixelated ghosting and an annoying blurred look. The higher the resolution the more obvious the problem becomes. The effect is only present in DX9 and DX11 GPU backends. | ||

EFB | The OpenGL backend does not render the effect, allowing an old EFB to Texture trick to become permanent and easy. It is less accurate, with some dimming and other problems, but it improves the visual clarity of the image considerably. To fix the effect's problem, make sure these settings are active '''before you start the game'''. | ||

===Randomized Text Bug=== | ===Randomized Text Bug=== | ||
If the Texture Cache Accuracy is set to "Fast", this bug will appear. It randomizes the text characters, making it appear to be another language. The setting second from the right (normal) and safer settings all remove the error. {{revision| | If the Texture Cache Accuracy is set to "Fast", this bug will appear. It randomizes the text characters, making it appear to be another language. The setting second from the right (normal) and safer settings all remove the error. This is fixed on version {{revision|3.0}} and later revisions, as Texture Cache Accuracy is now always on and the setting has been removed. | ||

===Celestial Brush Freeze=== | ===Celestial Brush Freeze=== | ||
Early in the game, the game requires you to use the rejuvination brush skill to continue with the game, performed by holding B and then pressing A on areas to be rejuvinated. However, using this skill will cause Ōkami to freeze. Fortunately, after you first press A+B to start the rejuvenation process, if you continue to hold B for 10-30 seconds (depending on your CPU), it will eventually unfreeze, and allow you to use the brush as normal. While it is tedious, by repeating this you can paint the river and proceed with the game | *For the Celestial Brush to function "Skip EFB Access from CPU" cannot be checked. | ||
