When using the MS Bluetooth Stack (the default Bluetooth stack on Windows) the game will think that the Wii Remote is constantly disconnecting. Pressing a button on the Wii Remote will restore it, but it will disconnect again seconds later. Disable '''Enable Speaker Data''' to remedy this problem. It's a problem bound to PC hardware and driver, you can also try [[Bluetooth Passthrough]], or follow this [[Wii Remote Plus (RVL-CNT-01-TR) Connection Guide#Windows|Wii Remote -TR Connection Guide]] anyhow to avoid the MS Bluetooth stack. DolphinBar is another viable solution for this problem. | |||

During Shader Compilation, stuttering can become so severe that it desyncs the GPU and CPU threads in Dual Core mode. The game freaks out over this desync, creating a black bar at the bottom of the screen, which takes up 15% of the screen space and "squishes" the game in the remaining space. The black bar will remain there from then on whether stuttering continues or ceases. | During Shader Compilation, stuttering can become so severe that it desyncs the GPU and CPU threads in Dual Core mode.

=== Bloom Offset in IR>1 === | |||
''Metroid Prime 3'' has been prominent in using blooming effects unlike the other Metroid Prime: Trilogy games, and therefore the blooming offset problem in this game became more noticeable than others. It will have several copies of the bloom spread out from the source, and can be very distracting. Disabling '''Scaled EFB Copy''' in Dolphin's settings will influence how the blooming effects should look, but this has some issues on its own, such as upper-left part of the screen become pixelated. It's a problem belonging to resolutions that the real Wii never had. | |||

=== Dot in IR>1 === | |||
<!-- Shared problem with other [[Metroid Prime: Trilogy]] games --> | |||
When playing above 1x Native internal resolution, there is a dot in the center of the screen. It's small and easy to ignore, but it's always there. It can be hidden along with the helmet and visor display in the game's options (Hit '''"1"''' on your Wii Remote then point at wrench icon on the bottom left of the screen to bring up the option screen then go to monitor icon on the right of the screen, then set both "Helmet Opacity" and "Visor Opacity" to 0). It's a problem belonging to resolutions that the real Wii never had. | |||

Default settings with the latest dev versions, loading custom textures, 3x native res, and only the occasional stutter (often only related to other processes on my system), even when loading rooms.
