=== "Reading Disc" Screen Taking a Long Time ===
If Vsync is enabled and External Frame Buffer (XFB) emulation is disabled, the "Reading Disc" screen that is shown while the game is starting will take a long time to finish. This is because the game uses an uncapped framerate during that specific screen. To avoid this issue, you can simply set External Frame Buffer emulation to Virtual or disable Vsync in Dolphin.
If Vsync is enabled and Immediately Present XFB is enabled, the "Reading Disc" screen that is shown while the game is starting will take a long time to finish. This is because the game uses an uncapped framerate during that specific screen. To avoid this issue, you can simply disable Immediately Present XFB or Vsync in Dolphin.

When saving/loading game, screenshots next to a save file will not show correctly. Disable EFB Copies to Texture Only to fix this.

=== Random Crashing ===
=== Texture Flickering ===
In {{revision|5.0-683}} or newer, the game will crash randomly (though somewhat infrequently) with an invalid opcode due to GPU desynchronization caused by incorrect interrupt timings. This affects both dual core and single code mode, no matter what settings are used.
With D3D, the sky in Makna Forest is glitched, as the ocean texture from the above area is flickering through. Use OpenGL, Vulkan or disable Fast Depth Calculation to prevent this from happening.

In {{revision|5.0-683}} or newer, the game will crash randomly (though somewhat infrequently) with an invalid opcode due to GPU desynchronization caused by incorrect interrupt timings. This affects both dual core and single code mode, no matter what settings are used. This issue is questionable.

=== HD Textures ===
See the [https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/showthread.php?tid=35298 Xenoblade Chronicles HD Expansion Pack]. This project aims to get as many textures converted to HD as possible. There are also packs to replace the button icons with HD versions for the Wii Remote, Classic Controller, Xbox360, and PlayStation with HD tutorials that utilize these buttons. The texture pack has full support for all game disc versions.
