The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening is playable. Performance may struggle in demanding areas.

Issues

• Using OpenGL:
  • Tall grass and tree models have black flickering
  • Depth of field (aka blurriness) is incorrectly rendered, causing the whole screen to appear blurred. This can be mitigated by using this mod patch.
  • Lighting and grass shading may be incorrect.
  • Water appears to not be transparent, and water surface reflections are too bright.
• Using Vulkan:
  • Banding effects may occur on the terrain.
  • Depending on the driver (e.g. RADV), black flickering may still occur on foliage.
  • Crashes occur frequently when entering Manbo's Pond. Switch to OpenGL in order to bypass this problem.
• NVIDIA Turing series GPUs (GeForce 16- and 20-series, Titan RTX) may have some additional rendering issues (this note needs expansion).

Game-Specific Configuration

• Controller configuration: Pro Controller or Dual Joycons
• Typically, using the Vulkan backend will render far better than OpenGL.
