Configuration

Options that deviate from RPCS3's default settings and provide the best experience with this title are listed below.

CPU configuration

Setting Option Notes
PPU decoder Recompiler (LLVM) Fastest option
SPU decoder Recompiler (LLVM) Fastest option
Preferred SPU threads 3 From 25 hours of playing Little Big Planet 3 on the emulator 3 has made it mostly playable (though I did test on an 8 core CPU)
Enable SPU loop detection On
SPU block size Mega Improves performance pretty decently.

GPU configuration

Setting Option Notes
Renderer Vulkan Works much better then OpenGL.
Anti-aliasing Auto Fixes a glitch where the screen freezes and a very low res screen is drawn in the corner.
Shader mode Async (multithreaded)
Strict rendering mode On If you experience visual bugs try enabling this option, it does not do much to performance.
Multithreaded RSX Off Decreases performance slightly on a 6 core CPU or less (I tested this game on a 6 core CPU and an 8 core CPU)
Asynchronous texture streaming On Can increase performance

Audio configuration

Setting Option Notes
Convert to 16-bit On Fixes some stuttery audio.

Advanced configuration

Setting Option Notes
Silence all logs On Improves performance
Maximum SPURS threads Unlimited Limiting it to 5 causes it to crash very frequently, anything below 5 is likely to not get past the loading screen.

Known Issues

Flickering on loading screens

When a loading screen appears, flickering will appear at the bottom.

Broken screen when anti-aliasing is disabled

When smoke, dust or some other kinds of particles are on screen and anti-aliasing is not enabled the screen will break and render a very low quality smaller screen in the corner.

Playability

Not playable as of 19/02/22 but can be completed from start to finish with a beefy CPU with dips to 20fps or so.
