Playable at full speed. Round Sprite on Half fixes artifacts on text when upscaling. As of v1.5.0-dev-2868-gf2f66c02d, requires "Disable Safe Features" to fix character outlines.
* EE/IOP settings at defaults.
* VU settings at defaults.
* Speedhacks at defaults, except MTVU enabled.

|Comments=The game runs flawlessly. Don't touch the emulation settings, keeping the safe preset is fine. Use OpenGL (Hardware), set the resolution to anything as long as it's not custom, enable hardware depth, accurate date and basic blending unit accuracy. Go to H/W hacks, set skipdraw to 0, enable Preload Data Frames and set Round Sprite to half or full (I prefer full)

|Comments=Runs perfectly. Compatible with HDLoader. Disable Safe Features removes thick black outlines around characters. Half-pixel Offset set to Special (Texture) thins out the black lines at the edges of the screen, Normal (Vertex) also works but creates a blue line at the top of the screen and makes lines run through certain effects. Round Sprite set to Half removes Text Artifacts.

|Comments=GPU's used: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti, AMD Radeon HD 6850 & 7850. Catalyst runs faster than Radeon open source but has freezes in Farebury in the church; open source Radeon r600 driver more compatible than RadeonSI, but both are very slow; Nvidia closed source is much better; game able to be completed with occasional slowdowns; software mode required in flashback scenes and it will be very slow regardless of GPU driver; you may need to adjust clamps in Farebury to enter Kalderasha's house

|Description=When upscaling, black lines will appear along the bottom and right sides of the screen. The lines will fade/flicker in and out as the camera rotates.
|Workaround=Keep Internal Resolution at Native, or use a Software renderer. Alternatively, enable Half-pixel Offset to thin them out (small lines will still be present), but this will also break some other effects (water will now have lines going through it).
