=== Bounding Box Slowdown on NVIDIA Cards === | === Bounding Box Slowdown on NVIDIA Cards === | ||
NVIDIA cards are abnormally slow during bounding box effects even at very low internal resolutions when using D3D11. They get dramatically slower as the internal resolutions increase, even though comparable AMD graphics cards suffer no slowdown at all. This is due to Dolphin hitting a slow path on those graphics cards. It is recommended that NVIDIA users use the OpenGL backend when playing titles that require Bounding Box emulation to avoid that. | NVIDIA cards are abnormally slow during bounding box effects even at very low internal resolutions when using D3D11.

=== When Using Older Graphics Cards === | |||
NVIDIA GeForce 400 series and newer, AMD/ATI Radeon HD 5000 series and newer, and Broadwell integrated GPUs (Intel HD Graphics 5300+) have the full suite of OpenGL and D3D features Dolphin needs for Bounding Box - a feature this game uses for many of its effects. Older GPUs (as well as all GPUs on MacOS) lack these features, however in {{revision|5.0-2964}} a workaround was added to the OpenGL backend. If you are using an older GPU on non-macOS computers, use OpenGL to avoid glitches and broken effects. | |||

=== Merluvee Next Path === | === Merluvee Next Path === | ||
When using the D3D backend, asking Merluvee to tell you the next path may freeze the game. This does not occur on OpenGL or Vulkan, so use them to avoid this issue. | When using the D3D backend, asking Merluvee to tell you the next path may freeze the game.
