{{Issue
|IssueName=Glitchy character shadows
|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".

|IsFixed=0
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=0
|IssueLevel=0
|Description=Characters shadows are either glitched or missing.
|Description=The pool of water underneath the maiden in the Fountains of Life flickers.
|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 cast by object visible through walls.
|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).

|IssueLevel=0

|Description=During the opening with the woman's voice the white effect is not emulated properly in hardware renderers
|Description=In Hardware mode when using upscaling resolution some objects have blur around them.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)" and set Blending Unit Accuracy to at least "High".
|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
