dev-1592 D3D11, default Default Game runs essentially flawlessly with maybe a small stutter once in a blue moon. Gauntlet Golf does not work by default, and player model stuttering occurs while walking across certain tiles on the Tropical board (see this issue), and thus EE rounding and VU rounding need to both be set to 'positive' to fully correct these. While this does cause some slight, occasional jittering on the starting and staging squares, it does not affect gameplay and is very minor. TheTechnician27
