Progress Continues
We've already had 21543 updates since Dolphin 5.0. Keep up with Dolphin's continuing progress through the Dolphin Blog: February, March, and April 2024 Dolphin Progress Report. |
The Dolphin Emulator Wiki needs your help! Dolphin can play thousands of games, and changes are happening all the time. Help us keep up! Join in and help us make this the best resource for Dolphin. |
(DOF Blur update. More updating required due to the many changes in 3.0 and onwards.) |

An Internal Resolution set to AUTO is usually enough to make it tolerable, but there are several ways to reduce it further. | ||
*Use an efb scale that is higher than your window/fullscreen resolution. This means for lower resolutions you will need a 2x efb scale and for higher resolutions you will need a 3x efb scale. This will remove/reduce the DOF blur without breaking anything. | *Use an efb scale that is higher than your window/fullscreen resolution.

Without 4x it is impossible to set a EFB scale higher then 1920x1080, thus impossible to remove/reduce the blur with this technique. To fix it, use SSAA. | ||
*Super Sample Anti-Aliasing (SSAA), combined with an EFB Scale equal to or greater then your current resolution, will solve the effect better then any other option available. It will allow for crystal clear distance areas without breaking any effects.
