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.

Problems

Online Play

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

Custom Colors

By default, "Skip EFB CPU Access" is enabled (checked) 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 being on by default.

Configuration

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

Revision OS CPU GPU Result Tester
r4872 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 @ 2.93GHz nVidia GeForce 430 GT Perfect at full speed (At 720p, 4x ssa and 16x anisotropic filtering enabled). Speed will drop at about 2-5 FPS during battles with many monster on the same screen but will revert back to full speed over time, 27-28 FPS in caves full of monsters. Incorrect Bloom rendering is a defect of this revision but can be fixed with patched revisions made by other users which has a shortcut key to disable the bloom. SpardaDVLking3 (YouTube Account)
r5192 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 @ 2.93GHz nVidia GeForce 430 GT Best revision for this game(At 720p, 4x ssa and 16x anisotropic filtering enabled). Full speed at all areas. Slow downs will only occur when fighting many monsters, at about 1-3 FPS drop, only on Moga Woods, other areas are full speed regardless of monster numbers. Lowest possible FPS is 25 but only when fighting many Jaggis, Jaggias and a Geat Jaggi at the same time. Incorrect Bloom rendering is still an issue but can be bypassed by using patched revisions. Use this revision when playing MH3. SpardaDVLking3 (YouTube Account)
r7313 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core i3-2100 @ 3.1GHz ATI Radeon HD 5570 Working flawlessly and at 90% of time at 60 FPS otherwise dropping at 55 FPS
r7335 Windows 7 x64 AMD Phenom II 720 BE @ 3.2GHz ATI Radeon HD 4850 Working good at 30 FPS. Some slowdowns with many monsters and in the village ultramann
r7409 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 3.8GHz nVidia GeForce 9600 GT Perfect playable: EFB->RAM with Cache enabled and disable CPU-EFB-Access to solve the texture problem. Use HLE to gain +10% FPS GothicIII
r7551 Linux x86_64 (Ubuntu 10.10) AMD Phenom II X4 @ 3.2GHz ATI Radeon HD 4770 Perfect playable: texture problem sometimes. Slow with many monsters and in the village. Aldo Nogueira
r7676 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 @ 2.93GHz nVidia GeForce 430 GT Perfectly playable at full speed 30 FPS even in village (At 720p, 4x ssa and 16x anisotropic filtering enabled). Slows down with many huge monsters at 23-26 FPS, in caves with monsters about 23 FPS, overclocking should resolve this. Spardadvlking3 (YouTube account)
3.0-159 Linux x86_64 Lubuntu 11.10 AMD Athlon II X2 @ 2.8GHz ATI Radeon HD 5770 Perfect playable: Slow with many monsters and in the village. Theredbaron
3.0-415 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.5GHz AMD Radeon HD 6950 Constant 30 FPS in OpenGL (4xNativeRes, Per-pixel light, AFx2) Anti-aliasing cause wireframe to show, especially in darker areas (at 4xNative AA doesn't really improve the display in 1080p anyway). AF effect is even less noticeable. Pixel light might look better (or at least different). Some strange sound glitches (rare distant random sounds) jonhwoods
3.0-638 Windows 7 x64 AMD Phenom II X4 955 @ 4GHz nVidia GeForce GTX 560 Ti Direct3D9, 1920x1080 internal res. Perfect 30 FPS. No issues, even without disabling lighting using hotkeys as suggested. Royerson
3.0-763 Windows 7 x64 Intel Core i5-2450M AMD Radeon HD 7610M The game runs ok but only 30 FPS all the time Chinmorph
4.0-4654 Windows 8 x64 Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4GHz AMD Radeon HD 6850 PERFECT! AWESOME!!! Game runs more fast than on Wii (FPS: 36 VPS: 60 - 120%) NoIdea
