(Undo revision 72951 by 78.149.190.184 (talk) Performance config not relevant, also unclear how EFB to RAM would speed things up. Purging but wouldn't mind being corrected.) |

=== Censor Effect === | |||
Under Direct3D, when active, the censor effect can cause 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". Use OpenGL to avoid this problem. | |||

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. Refer {{issue|7225}}. | |||
