|Comments=Vertex stretching seems to happen for Ratchet, Clank, and enemies frequently in Holostar Studios, and once in Clank's section of Aquatos. In Aquatos, restarting fixed the bug, but not in Holostar Studios. Like in R&C2, it doesn't affect gameplay, but is still pretty noticeable. Full VU0 synchronisation fixed this, but increased EE usage to the point where it caused some lag, so I had it off most of the time. Aside from this, the game lagged a lot during the ranger missions in Kerwan, which seemed odd as there was no obvious bottleneck (EE, GS, VU, and GPU were all well below 100%). GS usage approached 100% during the final boss, but it never dropped noticeably from full speed. Text is distorted, but bloom is fine. Fully playable. | |Comments=Vertex stretching seems to happen for Ratchet, Clank, and enemies frequently in Holostar Studios, and once in Clank's section of Aquatos.

|Comments= Full V0 Synchronization resolves most of the Vertex stretching issues and without it 180% EE Overclock is not stable. With 180%EE the game can hold a locked internal 60FPS most of the time, 130% is also a major improvement, though drops still happen regularly with 130%. The fixes required to make Aquatos playable and fix bloom mess up UI text a little, this seems to be the only notable issue with this configuration. Performance is very solid, unlocked FPS range from 180-260. | |Comments= Full V0 Synchronization resolves most of the Vertex stretching issues and without it 180% EE Overclock is not stable.

Final Verdict: This game runs f**king amazing now on the newer nightlies, far better than 2 years ago. 100% Recommend attempting to emulate it now, I imagine even 7 year old hardware can take so much advantage out of the new upgrades to PCSX2. | Final Verdict: This game runs f**king amazing now on the newer nightlies, far better than 2 years ago. 100% Recommend attempting to emulate it now, I imagine even 7 year old hardware can take so much advantage out of the new upgrades to PCSX2. | ||

|Workaround=Unable to replicate on the latest | |Workaround=Unable to replicate on the latest nightly. Unsure if this was ever an issue. If this was an issue for older versions, the instructions were as follows: "Restart PCSX2. If this doesn't fix it, enable Full VU0 Synchronisation under Properties/Game Fixes. This does increase EE usage, but is unlikely to affect performance on most recent midrange or higher systems." | ||

|IssueName=Framerate dips | |||
|IsFixed=0 | |||
|IssueLevel=-1 | |||
|Description=R&C's framerate may dip when many enemies or allies are in view. This occurs on original hardware. Especially prevalent in the sewers on Aquatos. | |||
|Workaround=First verify that your device is not the bottleneck if you experience framerate dips. If your device is too slow and you attempt the following fix, you will make the problem worse. Try to overclock the EE Cycle Rate under Settings > Emulation. 180% fixes almost all slowdowns in exchange for a higher GPU and CPU utilization. Higher values than 180% lead to certain instabilities.<!--Tested, and 130% isn't enough to save you from slowdowns on Aquatos.--> | |||
