A month and a half have passed since the mansion lab incident and now the secrets come back to haunt you in '''''Resident Evil 3: Nemesis'''''. Join Jill Valentine in her attempt to escape a nightmarish city in ruins. Around every corner lurk hordes of flesh-eating zombies, hideous mutants, and a relentless new nemesis. You'll soon rely on cunning and brute force to stay alive. The Resident Evil series has taken a horrifying turn, unveiling new layers in the Umbrella Corporation's devious activities.
A month and a half have passed since the mansion lab incident and now the secrets come back to haunt you in '''''Resident Evil 3: Nemesis''''' (aka '''''Biohazard 3: LAST ESCAPE''''' in Japan). Join Jill Valentine in her attempt to escape a nightmarish city in ruins. Around every corner lurk hordes of flesh-eating zombies, hideous mutants, and a relentless new nemesis. You'll soon rely on cunning and brute force to stay alive. The Resident Evil series has taken a horrifying turn, unveiling new layers in the Umbrella Corporation's devious activities.


== Problems ==
== Problems ==
=== Slowdown ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
The beginning of the game leading to the factory scene exhibits slowdown. FPS may drop by 10% to 20%. <s>It has been fixed in {{revision|3.5-1084}}</s>.
=== <s>Inventory Issues</s> ===
Issue still present on {{revision|3.5-1093}}, correctable by setting the Texture Cache Accuracy slider to furthest right or middle setting. Safe setting causes slowdown.
Sometimes when picking up an item or transferring items from inventory to a box, the item will disappear. This can be avoided by setting Texture Cache Accuracy slider to the first setting (safe). This is the default value since {{revision|5.0-14855}}.


To avoid potential slowdowns, you may want to look at Overclocked CPU option and download it at around 66%, if this does not work for you, go lowering gradually until the CGs (pre-rendered videos) remain in stable 60FPS, with no more than a variation of 58 to 60FPS.
=== <s>Music Drops Out</s> ===
Due to the removal of the ARAM-DMA hack on {{revision|5.0-560}}, the music will drop out in game areas that use two audio tracks (ambiance sound count as an audio track), refer to {{issue|9840}}. This issue has been patched since {{revision|5.0-13452}}.


=== Sounds ===
}}}}
Sometimes the sound stops. Use the LLE recompiler with OpenAL backend can be used to correct sound issues. <s>The audio issue has been resolved in {{revision|3.5-644}}</s>.
Audio issue is back in {{revision|3.5-1093}}, although very, very rarely. Recommend using Xaudio2 due to the rarity of the issue.


=== Inventory Issues ===
== Enhancements ==
Sometimes when picking up an item or transferring items from inventory to a box, the item will disappear. This can be avoided most of the time by setting Texture Cache Accuracy slider to middle setting.
=== Graphical Artifacts on Environment ===
Environments will exhibit square graphical artifacts around some objects if '''Texture Filtering''' is set to '''Force Linear'''. Keep this enhancement at Default to avoid the issue.

NOTE: You lose considerable performance on low-end systems.
