== Emulation Information ==

=== Reflections ===

Reflective floors show the reflection offset from where they should be. Instead of being a mirror image beneath Fox's feet, the mirror image is well above his head. Additionally, there is bar along the bottom of the screen that doesn't get any reflections at all. This is not a problem with Dolphin; it occurs even on real GameCubes, but the reflections are so low resolution that it's difficult to notice.

{{testing/entry|revision=3.0-776|OS=Mac OS X 10.7.4|CPU=Intel Core i7 @ 2.2GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 6750M|result=Playable but slow, 30-60FPS depending on areas. Cut-scenes are particularly slow, resulting in important sound desynchronization during them. Tested with default settings and DSP HLE.|tester=Nolendil}}

{{testing/entry|revision=3.5-141|OS=Windows 7|CPU=AMD Phenom II 955 BE @ 3.2GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon HD 6850|result=Playable. Video and audio are not sync and the first game minutes are slow depending on the area. However, I really don't recommend to start this game on the Dolphin emulator (this game is not playable in my opinion)|tester=ramaGZ}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0|OS=Windows 8.0|CPU=Intel Core i5-2500K @ 4.3GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti|result=Almost perfect. Full speed @ 60FPS @ 3X internal res with only a couple of missing effects. Using OpenGL as backend enable "skip EFB access to CPU" (disables slight glow around fires, but improves the FPS a lot), enable "EFB to texture" (disables another minor glow effect, but also improves FPS) and disable "fast depth calculation" (stops the shadow flickering associated with OpenGL making the shadows next to perfect). Using Xaudio2 the audio is perfectly synced during gameplay. Experienced a de-sync during cutscenes after a while. Don't know how often/reoccurring the audio de-sync is. Played until you get to play as Fox.|tester=knerlington}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0-3178|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i3-2310M @ 2.1GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce 610M|result=Barely playable. The main menu and most of the cinematics drop down ~30FPS with delayed subtitles. But apart the cinematics, the game was at 45-50FPS.|tester=HauruI}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0-8417|OS=Windows 7|CPU=Intel Core i7-4790 @ 4GHz|GPU=NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760|result=Tested at 1080p @ 60FPS (3x Native) with 4xSSAA at Main Menu/Thorntail Hollow. Set '''EFB to Texture''' (checked). Gameplay is workable, with a few stutters to ~90-95% emulation speed. Chugs a bit more when there are many particles on the screen. Shadows flicker a lot in my setting which leaves much to be desired, YMMV. Cutscenes have polarizing results- some portions emulate at virtually perfect speed, while 30 seconds later it may drop to < 50% emulation speed. 2xSSAA produces similar results, but gameplay and cutscenes are a more consistent in regards to emulation speed. FIFO overflows occurs randomly during cutscenes; remember to save often.|tester=Lessigen}}

{{testing/entry|revision=4.0-9198|OS=Windows 8.1|CPU=Intel Core i3-4160 @ 3.6GHz|GPU=AMD Radeon R9-270X|result=Tested with Direct3D 11 backend, V-Sync on, 2x native resolution, 4x MSAA anti-aliasing, 4x anisotropic filtering, Scaled EFB Copy, Per-Pixel lighting, Ignore format changes, EFB Copied to Texture Only, Texture cache accuracy set to the middle, Fast Depth Calculation, Progressive Scan and Borderless Fullscreen. Gets a near-steady 55-60fps with a few stuttering. Cut-scenes work fine. Both Direct3D 11 and OpenGL have flickering shadows, but OpenGL only gets 20-40 fps, so use Direct3D instead.|tester=sl1fka}}
