(BIOS: USA 2.00) Plays amazingly well at 60fps at all times and without any serious glitch I noticed. Interlacing: Auto, D3D Res: Custom 1920x1080, Shade Boost: 60/50/50, FXAA: "Active", FX Shader: "Active", Text Filt: "Active/Half", Anisotropic Filt: 16x
Minor Bugs: •Experienced Texture corruption when changing scenes, but solved it by changing the "D3D Internal Resolution" to "Custom" and forcing "Custom resolution" to "1920x1080" •Some 2D elements are a bit streched, but 3D elements are perfect and with the correct aspect ratio. (Related to the 16:9 ratio I'm using) •Minor Transparency related issue: In battle, character shadows are a bit glitched (Related to the HD Resolution I'm using). Can be solved by switching to Software mode (But I prefer to live with it and play in HD) |
