=== 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.
=== Broken Portraits ===
Portraits of urbs will appear as simply a black box. Disabling '''Store EFB Copies to Texture Only''' will fix this, but it only takes effect when an urb is created, as the portrait is stored in the save data. Disabling this will also cause flickering if '''Dual Core''' is enabled.

=== <s>Censor Effect</s> ===
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. Fixed some time before {{revision|5.0-2462}}.

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}}.

This also prevents graphical corruption under Direct3D. Refer {{issue|7225}}. The Vulkan backend will experience much less slowdown on this effect, however due to a bug with EFB pokes in this backend, the effect will be offset quite a bit.
