|Comments=Runs at full speed. Using above 3X native gives weird stuttering issues. Using 480p mode with Shadeboost enabled to compensate. At these settings the game is absolutely stable: Renderer: Direct3D11 (Hardware), Interlacing (F5): Bob tff, Texture Filtering: Bilinear (PS2), Internal Resolution: 3x Native, Anisotropic Filtering: 16x, Mipmapping: Basic (Fast), CRC Hack Level: Automatic (Default), (✓) Allow 8-Bit Textures. EE/IOP: Clamping Mode "Full", VU: Clamping mode "Extra". License tests require these two to be at their stock settings.

Some Licence Center tests (B-3 being the first) will crash if you don't set both Clamping Mode settings to "Normal". Unfortunately using "Normal" causes some graphical issues so you'll have to change the settings for your Driver's Licence tests and then swap back to "Full" and "Extra" for the rest of the game (see my settings). Other than that, I haven't found any issues.

Same setup as the NTSC-U test. Didn't test the game that much, but I'm assuming there are no region specific issues.

|IssueLevel=2
|Description=PCSX2 crashes during or at the start of a race, often with GSdx Out of memory warnings in the log.
|Description=When launching the first race of a play session, VRAM usage jumps significantly just before the race preview screen starts. After the first race, this problem does not happen again until the next time you boot the game. The game will also have occasional VRAM spikes as it continues to run. Either of these can potentially cause a crash if they cause your system to run out of VRAM.
|Workaround=<br>
|Workaround=<br>
# In recent PCSX2 GIT revisions as of May 7th, 2016, VRAM spikes have been greatly reduced.
# PCSX2 versions released later than May 7th, 2016 should have much smaller VRAM spikes.
# To avoid crashes at the start of an event, temporarily switch to the Sofware Renderer by pressing F9.
# Make sure Large Framebuffer is disabled.
# If you get lots of crashes during license tests go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, and set Internal Resolution to (1x) Native, or set Renderer to any of the "(Software)" options.  
# To avoid crashes at the start of the first race of a play session, when on the loading screen with your car's name and tire types, wait for the loading circle to abruptly stop; this is a sign that you have run out of VRAM. Hit F9 to toggle between hardware and software rendering and wait a moment for it to respond. Once it changes renderers, wait for it go around a few more times, then hit F9 again to return to your desired renderer. This refreshes the emulation state of GSdx and clears the bad VRAM. If you notice that it never actually stalls out at all, you may still need to clear the VRAM and should hit F9 twice to do so before starting the race.
# Multisample anti-aliasing(MSAA) can cause the game to crash a lot. Make sure the MSAA level is set to 0 in the GSdx Configure Hacks menu(MSAA is only avaialble for the Direct3D Hardware renderers).
# To reduce VRAM spikes further, Nvidia users can Force Enable Sparse Texture in GSdx Advanced settings & hacks. OpenGL only. Note in 1.7.0 dev builds Sparse Texture may be broken and cause problems.
# In Windows XP, even in native resolution, you may get instant crashes when starting races if you do not have enough VRAM. Using a custom resolution lower than 512x512 seems to help.

|Description=In-game brightness or contrast values do not work properly in-game.
|Workaround=This issue can been fixed in the latest v1.5.0 development builds as of May 2016. Go to Config -> Video (GS) -> Plugin Settings, set Renderer to "OpenGL (Hardware)", set CRC Hack Level to Automatic(or Partial is automatic is not available). For older versions or the Direct3D Hardware renderers, press the start button in-game, go to Screen(or from the main menu of the game, go to Options -> Picture Quality) and set Brightness to 0 to avoid the problems mentioned in the issue above.
|Workaround=This has been resolved in recent v1.5.0 git builds. CRC hack level should be left on Automatic. For older versions set in game brightness/contrast to 0 or alternatively switch to software rendering.
