|Comments=BIOS: USA 2.0, HACKS: Auto Setting set to 2, Runs mostly perfect Excepts the menus randomly shakes but that's mostly minor.(I didn't do any extensive testing like I never been in a dungeon but matches seem to be fine) A possible fix for this is to play around with your video plugin's interlacing setting. Setting it to auto seems to remove any visible shaking when using the latest version of the above graphics plugin. | |Comments=BIOS: USA 2.0, HACKS: Auto Setting set to 2, Runs mostly perfect Excepts the menus randomly shakes but that's mostly minor.(I didn't do any extensive testing like I never been in a dungeon but matches seem to be fine) Added comment by '''MediumMech's''' - A possible fix for this is to play around with your video plugin's interlacing setting.

|Comments=BIOS: USA 2.30; Preset 2; MTVU; Runs at an almost constant 60 FPS up to 4x Resolution with small, rare dips to ~55 FPS during battles. I wasn't able to successfully use any ISO other than PSX games for the disc swapping/summoning in this game. I STRONGLY advise downloading or creating a .pnach with a cheat for filling out the monster book, otherwise your options for summoning new monsters will be limited. You have to have a flying monster in parts of the later game and this may not be possible to obtain with only PSX discs. No crashes. | |||
