Monster Hunter Tri, known in Japan as Monster Hunter 3, is the third console installment in the Monster Hunter franchise, developed by Capcom and released for the Wii in Japan on August 1, 2009. Monster Hunter Tri was released on April 20 2010 in North America, Europe, and Australia.

Emulation Information

Online Play

Monster Hunter Tri cannot be played online since April 30, 2013, because Capcom shut down the Monster Hunter Tri servers.

Problems

Missing Screenshot

When completing a quest, there is supposed to be a screenshot of the game in the background. Without Store EFB Copies to Texture Only disabled, they will render as black.

Custom Colors

By default, Skip EFB CPU Access is enabled for this game. Without it, the character creation menus run extremely slow even on the most powerful systems. But, without EFB CPU Access the custom color selector during character creation does not work. If you wish to use the custom color selector, uncheck Skip EFB CPU Access, use the selector, and then recheck it to resume character creation. See issue 6911.

  • "Skip EFB CPU Access" is not needed for regular gameplay. But it causes no issues other than the custom color selector and greatly improves the character creation menus - hence it's being on by default.

"Skip EFB CPU Access" can be disabled since 5.0-9735 and 5.0-9638 as the slowdown has been fixed. Skip EFB CPU Access isn't enabled by default by default since 5.0-11153.

Blown Out Bloom

The game uses EFB Access to CPU in order to do its bloom effects. Because it is so slow for us to enable that for this case, the bloom will look blown out by default. Unchecking Skip EFB Access to CPU will fix the bloom, but, make the game unplayably slow even on the strongest of computers. The slowdown has been fixed in 5.0-9735 and 5.0-9638 and Skip EFB CPU Access isn't enabled by default by default since 5.0-11153.

Configuration

Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.
