|Description=Game runs very slowly. | |||
|Workaround=Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Speedhacks, and increase the VU Cycle Stealing until it runs smoothly. Note: Using VU Cycle Stealing can cause certain textures to become translucent, specially when viewed from a distance. | |||
* '''Workaround:''' Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes, and enable OPH Flag Hack. This should lead to a noticeable boost in performance in some areas. | |||

|Description= | |Description=The bloom on Shadow Creatures, Pigeons, Wander's Sword, and Mono's Dress are placed to the upper-left of their proper position. | ||
|Workaround=Enable the "Half-Pixel Offset" hack | |Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, click "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable the "Half-Pixel Offset" hack. Enabling the "Half-Pixel Offset" can result in flickering white lines along the top and left borders of the screen. Go to Config > Emulation Settings > GS Windows tab, and set the Zoom to 102.60% to remove the flickering lines. Using TC Offset(350, 350) instead of the half pixel offset hack fixes flickering borders and misaligned motion blur, but causes issues with distant terrain. Alternatively set the Internal Resolution to "Native", or set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options. | ||
