Emulation Information

uDraw Required

The uDraw GameTablet required by SpongeBob SquigglePants can only be emulated by Dolphin 5.0-10101 and newer. Older versions of Dolphin require you to use a real uDraw GameTablet and Wii Remote.

Problems

Drawing Latency

If Texture Cache Accuracy is set to Fast, there's a noticeable delay when your drawing should appear. To fix this, set Texture Cache Accuracy to Safe. Fixed by 5.0-10892.

Test Entries
Revision	OS	CPU	GPU	Result	Tester
5.0-11422	Windows 10	AMD Ryzen 3 1300X @ 3.5 GHz	NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti	The game runs nearly perfect, though I experienced slowdown during the credits. I don't think the emulated uDraw GameTablet is able to do the 'Fire' command, which involves pressing the uDraw pen while it is not on the tablet.	Deerly beloved
