=== Censor Effect ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
Under Direct3D, when active, the censor effect can cause slight graphical corruption. It will return back to normal when the censor effect is no longer on-screen. It can even crash Dolphin after a message box about "CreateTexture failed" or "Poke Z not implemented". Use OpenGL to avoid this problem.
=== Random Crashes ===
<!--
This game may crash randomly in-game.

The censor is also not in the right spot under Direct3D. OpenGL renders correctly.
=== Black Sim Photo ===
<!--
In the game pause menu, a black square appears instead of the sim's photo.

The censor effect may cause VPS slow-down no matter what backend. Enable "Skip EFB Access from CPU" to fix this, although it will allow you to see your Sims like a nude Barbie doll. This also prevents graphical corruption under Direct3D.
