|Description=Very early in the game a dumpster that must be climbed upon to continue the story cannot be climbed.
|Workaround=To climb it I found the following setting solved the problem: EE/FPU Advanced Recompile Options set to positive. You must restart the level after changing the settings for this to work from every edge of the dumpster. BUT if you apply this setting without restarting the level then you can climb the dumpster from the right side ONLY.
|Workaround=Go to Config > Emulation Settings > EE/IOP, and set Round Mode to "Positive". The level must be restarted after applying the setting for this to work from every edge of the dumpster. If the setting is applied without restarting the level then the dumpster can only be climbed from its right side.
