Revision as of 07:59, 14 February 2013
, 14 February 2013Added some details, and the OpenGL problem (should have added that long ago) Removed the D3D11 config suggestion... this game is broken differently in all backends.
(Framelimiter problems fixed) |

It occurs | All of the Prime games suffer from micro-stuttering: screen redraws and small stops in the video that can become very annoying. It occurs in all graphics backends, but the OpenGL backend has consistently been the most resistant to the problem. DSP HLE and DSP LLE are both affected, though DSP LLE appears to make it worse in some revisions. Its severity varies depending on the revision and settings used, so if you want to play the game you should try a wide variety of combinations. Micro-stuttering can trigger the Black Bar glitch. | ||

It may only appear during movement (newer revisions) or be stuck there permanently (older revisions). To avoid this problem, use the D3D11 graphics backend. | ||

Whenever Dolphin has trouble with the game and flickers, from a loading hiccup to taking a screenshot, a black bar will appear on the bottom of the screen, taking up 15% of the screen space and "squishing" the game in the remaining space. This occurs in all graphics backends, and there is no known solution. See {{issue|5185}}. Old versions of Dolphin, such as 3.0-135, do not have this issue on all backends. | Whenever Dolphin has trouble with the game and flickers, from a loading hiccup to taking a screenshot, a black bar will appear on the bottom of the screen, taking up 15% of the screen space and "squishing" the game in the remaining space.

=== OpenGL Slowdown === | |||
OpenGL has problems with slowdown while showing refraction effects, such as raindrops on Samus' visor and the heat effect after firing her weapon for an extended period. On Metroid Prime 3 alone, OpenGL also has slowdowns when several grapple points (yellow pulsing) are present on screen at once. Even the strongest computers will slow to a crawl from this, and there is no solution in the OpenGL backend. D3D9 and D3D11 are not affected by this issue. | |||
