Test configuration on Windows:
PCSX2 version: | 1.1.0 r5380 |
Graphics by GSdx: | r5376 |
Sound by SPU2-X: | r5317 |
Pad plugin is LilyPad: | r5258 |
DVD plugin is cdvdGigaherz: | r4488 |
BIOS version: | US 01.70(25/03/2003) |
Comments: Plays perfectly. No sound issues at all now and the shadows look perfect (With Alpha Hack on). Loading screens lag, but no impact to actual gameplay.
If your computer can't handle the game and it starts to lag then use EE 2 or VU 1-2. I can't be certain the game won't screw up later on but if its anything like KH1/2 then chances are it'll run just fine. Hack comments: INTC Spin Detection, Wait Loop Detection, Fast CDVD, mVU Flag Hack, MTVU

PC specs used to test the game:
CPU: | Athlon II X4 630 2.80 GHz |
GPU: | Geforce 9800GT 1GB. |
Comments: A dual core can probably run it just fine provided they have a decent enough GPU and use the standard hacks along with EE and VU stealing if needed.
