Some demons may evolve into new forms on their own or can be fused into more powerful monsters.<br />

Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne is a continuation of the popular role-playing series, set in our modern world. It's an average day, as a typical Japanese high school student goes to the hospital, for a visit with his sick teacher. While on the train, he gets a mysterious vision that the Apocalypse is coming. Arriving at the hospital, the boy is sucked into a Vortex Field, into a dark mirror-image of his world. When he learns our world is ending to make room for this new one, he'll do what he can to get back home and (hopefully) stop the Apocalypse.

{{Issue
|IssueName=Inaccurate effects
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Some minor effects are not properly emulated (The most notable being the "white effect" during the opening with the woman's voice).
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)" and set Blending Unit Accuracy to at least "High".

{{Issue

|IssueName=Glitch with shadows of the characters
|IssueName=Flickering pool in save room
|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Glitch with shadows of the characters
|Description=The pool of water underneath the maiden in the Fountains of Life flickers.
|Workaround=Problems with shadows can be fixed by turning on Alpha hack in GSdx plugin and turning off all CRC hacks by adding the line "CrcHacksExclusions=all" to inis/GSdx.ini file. This, however, will make NPCs, some objects and shadows cast by object visible through walls, so it's either one or the other. Software Mode runs without either of problems.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings. First change your renderer to OpenGL (Hardware), and then uncheck Allow 8-Bit Textures. Make sure Enable HW Hacks is checked, then click Advanced Settings and Hacks--change Trilinear Filtering to Trilinear (Ultra/Slow).
*As of r5819, the shadow has been removed from the main character in Hardware rendering mode. Switch to software mode to display the shadow on the main character again.

{{Issue
|IssueName=Blur around some objects when upscaling
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=In Hardware mode when using upscaling resolution some objects have blur around them.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, enable Hardware hacks and choose '''disable depth emulation'''
Note: this will cause to "Shadows overlapping" even if you set set '''Renderer''' to "'''OpenGL (Hardware)'''"
}}
 
{{Issue
|IssueName=Game Blurry
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=-1
|Description=The game looks like a blur filter was applied. This is a multi-leveled issue, but is resolvable. The game itself uses post-process effects which accumulate 3 frames worth of information on screen, which is quite visually messy. On top of this, improper de-interlacing can cause every other frame to be a ghost of the two adjacent ones.
|Workaround=To fix deinterlacing go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Interlacing (F5) to 'Bob tff'. The post-process blur can be completely removed by apply the following patch:
<spoiler show="Show patch" hide="Hide patch">
<pre>
E8FCF8EC.pnach
    gametitle= Shin Megami Tensei - Nocturne [SLUS 20911] (U) [E8FCF8EC]
    // Skip drawing of accumulation framebuffer (avoids 3-frame ghosting, slightly darkens 3D scenes)
    patch=0,EE,0012AC08,word,03E00008
 
// Remove Motion Blur
patch=1,EE,002FC0E4,word,00000000 // 00000001
</pre>
</spoiler>
}}
 
==Fixed Issues==
{{Issue
|IssueName=Glitchy character shadows
|IsFixed=1
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Characters shadows are either glitched or missing.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)". Or switch to Software Mode by setting Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options. Alternatively for Direct 3D9 and 11 (Hardware), go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, set CRC Hack Level to "None", turn on "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks and enable the "Alpha" hack. This, however, will make NPCs, some objects and shadows visible through walls.
