|gameinfo          = In Ratchet & Clank: Up Your Arsenal, Ratchet and Clank once again team up for an all-new adventure that combines diverse gameplay with elements of action, exploration, adventure, puzzle-solving, strategy, and role-playing into one experience. Together with the Q-Force, Ratchet and Clank set off to uncover the schemes of the sinister Dr. Nefarious and keep the galaxy safe for organic life.

|Comments=Game is very demanding. Occasionally slows down with EE Cyclerate 0, but setting to -1 activates the game's internal frameskipping and makes it run a little smoother in most sections. Game desyncs audio on a few cutscenes due to slowdown. Use both fixes listed on the page to fix graphical issues. Solid background menus are fine, since other than that and some minor lighting glitches, the game looks great.

|IssueName=Invisible textures in Aquatos level
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=In the Aquatos level, pausing the game, bringing up the map or using a weapon vendor results in all non-transparent textures disappearing. If another planet (level) is visited afterwards, several textures on the player character are still missing. The problem appears only on Hardware renderers which support Depth Emulation, which at the time of writing is only OpenGL Hardware. It is possible to complete the level if the pause menu, map or weapon vendors are not used.
|Workaround=There are two workarounds. '''Workaround #1:''' {{Renderer hacks|Fast Texture Invalidation}} '''Workaround #2:''' {{Software mode}}

|Description=When running the game in a higher resolution than native, the bloom in the game becomes out of place and is too bright.
|Description=When running the game in a higher resolution than native, the bloom in the game becomes out of place and is too bright.
|Workaround=Multiple approaches can mitigate this problem but none will fully resolve it. All relevant options are in Config > Video(GS) > Plugin Settings > Advanced Settings and Hacks, after enabling the HW Hacks checkbox. The first approach, Half-Pixel Offset on Normal (Vertex) will fix misalignment, but fails to fix double-imaging. The second approach, Merge Sprite (reduces bloom brightness) and Wild Arms Offset (changes bloom alignment) will reduce brightness of bloom and partially resolve double-imaging, but will fail to full align the bloom still.
|Workaround=Head to View > Game Properties if UYA is running or right click UYA > Game Properties when in the main menu of PCSX2. Then, head to Graphics > enable Manual Hardware Renderer Fixes. Go to the Upscaling Fixes tab and enable Merge Sprite + Wild Arms Hack. This will fix bloom being too bright and will align it up properly, but at the cost of distorting text a little bit.
