Cant enable BBox?

Graphics/Hacks is where bounding box now resigns.

Please help. I cant play it like this.

Which processor do you have?

Bounding Box requires OpenGL 4.3 if you're using OpenGL. Please make sure you support that.

Your GPU does not support bounding box. There is nothing you can do besides getting a newer GPU/system or just play a game that doesn't require it. Only a few need it.

In that particular case I suggest using Dolphin 4.0-3610. Sure, you'll miss most of the recent improvements but that build have an old "fall back to software" approach for Bounding Box that should still work with your GPU...

Oh, right. I forgot that was an option.

Expect significant slowdowns where bounding box is used.

The best option is to get a really cheap discrete GPU (AMD or NVIDIA) and use the latest dev build (no need to change/upgrade the CPU).

But if you can't upgrade your hardware now or don't want to upgrade just for one title, the second-best option is to use the unofficial build Ishiiruka and set BBox to 'CPU' (until you get the HW that meets the minimum requirements for HW BBox).

That's why Ishiiruka looks like a better option than using a very old dev build. It includes precompiled vertex loaders for software BBox (greatly speeds up BBox on the CPU) and it's also more up-to-date (with the latest changes/improvements from master).

The third option is to use an old build like 4.0-3610, but that one is slow.

If you're fine with gambling your game play with crashes all the time, sure. And we won't help you.

Because who needs to be accurate or stable when you can just go really fast on old hardware?
