Shaders are not rendered before game start

Dhanvith · July 14, 2020, 5:18am

When I first tried to run Zelda Link between Worlds, a window popped up from k7 antivirus asking for permission for citra to act as server in the internet. I pressed no that time. The same window popped up again thee next day when i tried to run Zelda again, and i pressed no. This probably happened two times more and I declined every time. Till that time, the shaders used to take a minute or two to load before the game would actually launch. But then suddenly, the shaders stopped loading altogether and the game started lagging a lot. Earlier the game used to run at an average of 35 fps with 65% speed. Now it runs at 10 fps or below with speed 20%. Please help me to turn on the shaders again.

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

GPU Driver Version: Build 20.19.15.4835

This driver is outdated, you need to update.

Download win64_15.40.45.5126.zip from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29474/Intel-Graphics-Driver-for-Windows-15-40-?product=75105
direct link: https://downloadmirror.intel.com/29474/a08/win64_15.40.45.5126.zip

then follow this guide to install it: https://www.howtogeek.com/343287/how-to-fix-the-driver-being-installed-is-not-validated-for-this-computer-on-intel-computers/

Also do this:

Open Citra then go to File->Open Citra Folder
Open shaders folder then delete the opengl folder if it is there.
Emulation->Configure... then click on Graphics on the left
Enable Disk Shader Cache
Click on the Advanced tab and turn on Hardware Shader, 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.

On turning on accurate multiplication, the graphics start to glitch and the screens blank out.

The screen which you see above is same as the third image i uploaded in my first post. The lower screen is void of the graphics and is a solid brown while the upper screen also is blank. The audio plays all right, and it is possible to play by pressing the right buttons, but the screen won’t just change.

Observe the lower screen, It’s like everything is bleached off and only the text is remained.

The lower screen is a duplication of the upper screen, even though some properties of lower screen like gear, items and number of rupees also overlap.

Is this a problem of accurate multiplication or is it a bug from a recent update? Please hep.

P.S: I also updated Citra before following the methods you told before. The version is Nightly 1594.

Ah ok, in that case you need it off as well as Disk Shader Cache. Similar issue has been seen here: [SOLVED] Visual problems in Pokemon Moon

Nice GPU, Intel

You might need to turn off Hardware Shader as well unfortunately. You can also try these two older builds:

https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly/releases/tag/nightly-860

Yeah, I know right😁. And that too with a freaking i-3 and a tremendous clock speed of 1.70 GHz.
I am not a professional gamer or youtuber or whatever. This is just my dad’s laptop he bought for lousy office presentations.

Anyway, thanks man. Turning off accurate multiplication and disk shader cache worked. And game speed is playable too. Much appreciated.
