Revision as of 09:54, 31 March 2020
This template is used on all game pages under the ==Configuration== sub-header. The purpose of the template is to capture deviations in configurations from the default settings to be used for the emulator for each game. Hence, while using this template in the game pages, only options which deviate from the default settings are to be recorded.
Mandatory vs. recommendatory settings
Before using this is template, it is imperative to understand the distinction between mandatory settings and recommendatory settings.
- Mandatory settings - Settings without which the game would not work (for example, write color buffers for Demon's Souls and PPU Interpreter (precise) for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion) or will significantly degrade performance.
- Recommendatory settings - User specific settings which will improve the overall gaming experience based on the hardware available. For example, a higher option can be used for Anisotropic Filter and Resolution Scale if the user's hardware is capable of handling the additional load whereas settings such as Lower SPU Thread Priority should be used for better performance with weaker CPUs.
Given the nature of the options available, it is not feasible to capture all permutations of settings for each game using this template. Hence, only mandatory settings shall be listed in the game pages using this template. To know which recommendatory setting would be most appropriate, kindly read the guidance available for each setting in the default settings page. RPCS3 is alpha stage emulator and hence user will have to experiment with the recommendatory settings to optimise their gameplay experience.
An exception to the above rule would be Preferred SPU Threads where a value or range can be provided to identify the optimal option for each user.
Syntax
Below is the syntax of the template. This template must be present for all game pages irrespective of whether any non-default configurations are necessary. Where the game only requires default settings, the template should simply be used without any parameters.
{{config
|parameters =
}}
Parameters
The following are the only valid parameters accepted by this template. Unless mentioned otherwise, choose only one of the options mentioned for each setting. For any setting which deviates from the default configuration, an additional note may be given if required using the notes extension to highlight any necessary information.
