=== Lighting and Shimmering Object Smears === | {{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems| | ||
Beams of light and shimmering objects, like faerie wings, can smear or be duplicated or otherwise corrupt graphics. Slightly different versions of the corruption are seen between OpenGL and DirectX. Refer {{Issue|6899}} and {{Issue|8317}}. | === Light Glow === | ||
Since {{revision|5.0-4703}}, light glow will not render correctly when '''EFB to texture only''' is enabled. Disabling it fixes the problem. | |||
=== Underwater Rendering === | |||
When diving underwater an effect should blur the distance. On Dolphin everything is rendered completely fuzzy. Refer {{Issue|9277}}. Only the software back-end renders correctly. | |||

== Enhancements == | |||
=== Blotchy Textures=== | |||
Some textures are intended to be in an 18b rather than 24b format, which can cause banding across gradients or otherwise blotchy colors. Disabling '''Force 24-bit colour''' fixes the issue. | |||

=== Remove Bloom AR Code === | |||
The game has a bloom effect that causes issues with shimmering objects and an AR Code is needed to remove the bloom. This AR Code will remove bloom entirely. | |||

=== 16:9 Aspect Ratio Fix === | |||
The built-in Widescreen Hack causes various clipping issues. The following Gecko codes work as a replacement. Make sure disable the Widescreen Hack before using these. | |||
