Issue:
i’m quite new to the whole emulation thing but when i’m trying to load up animal crossing new leaf the game will not go past the black screen that says loading, but it never gets past that and its only this specific game
I also tried to delete the game and emulator and re installed both but nether fixed it.

Here’s some issues I found with your log that might help.

  • Enabling Accurate Multiplication is recomended in certain games. If you are experiencing graphical glitches, try enabling this option.

I do not believe that the problem is a graphical glitch because when i open up the game it will say leading for around 5 seconds then close the entire emulator

Hi, do this:

  1. Open Citra then go to File->Open Citra Folder
  2. Open shaders folder then delete the opengl folder if it is there.
  3. Emulation->Configure... then click on Graphics on the left
  4. Click on the Advanced tab and turn on Accurate Multiplication

The Disk Shader Cache currently has a bug when Accurate Multiplication is turned off causing it to load all shaders slowly from zero every time you start the game and makes the precompiled cache extrememly large + the RAM usage skyrockets until you crash.
