|Comments=USA v02.30(20/02/2008), Software renderer, Without it no matter what I do assets are missing textures popping in and out. Auto flush Edge antialiasing, Minmapping. 12 rending threads, Async Texture loading, load textures, Precache Textures. All this made the game only have SLIGHT slow downs and only for a brief moment. Otherwise played the entire game and beat it to test settings.

|Description='''(Hardware Render)''' Graphical artifacts on the right quarter/third of the screen.
|Description=Anytime you start a new game or load a savegame, the game may freeze with a bunch of '''Vif1: Unknown VifCmd!''' messages, even if the cut-scene has already started.
|Workaround=<br>
|Workaround=Fixed in emulator build '''v1.7.0 dev-1996''' and this problem in the console log and in game was no longer repeated. For older versions: do not extend '''VU Cycle Stealing''' to the end, because this may cause the game to freeze in gameplay.
#As of November 2017 on the latest v1.5.0 development builds this issue can be fixed with enabling the "Frame Buffer Conversion" Hardware hack.
