|Comments=Notes: Using Custom resolution, like 1920x1080 will make the detailed shadows buggy, so always use 1x 2x 4x... Native resolution. Random battle slowdowns occur, like most of the people have reported. Using Native resolution doesn't cure it fully: slowdowns can still be as high as 10 FPS at some places. This game is surprisingly smooth with Software rendering (with Rendering threads=3): no slowdowns on random battles. Settings: EE/IOP / VUI @ defaults. Speedhacks: EE=2 & VU=1, INTC, Idle loop, mVU & MTVU ON. Graphics: Resolution: Native (Required for slow random battles, otherwise runs very smoothly @ 4x Native.), 8-bit=OFF, BF=Forced, HW-hacks: OFF, Logarithmic Z=ON, AC=ON. | |Comments=Notes: Using Custom resolution, like 1920x1080 will make the detailed shadows buggy, so always use 1x 2x 4x...

(Extra notes: Detailed shadows hate anisotropic filtering. FXAA has a huge impact on performance for this game. After disabling it, I was able to gain the missing 10 FPS and now the game runs very smoothly with 2x Native resolution all the time.) | ||

|Comments=Flawless, full speed emulation at 4x native resolution. When using Large Framebuffer Half-pixel offset in Advanced Settings and Hacks must be set to Special (Texture) to accurately render the framebuffer effect when entering battle, otherwise the framebuffer will swim up to the upper left corner. | |Comments=Flawless, full speed emulation at 4x native resolution.

|Comments=BIOS: USA 1.60, RAM: 8GB DDR3, definitely playable at 720p, MAKE SURE YOUR PLAYING ON THE REVISON LISTED (or above) OR THE INTRO AND ANIMATED CUTSCENES (FMVs) WILL SLOWDOWN AND USE RENDERER LISTED OR CARPETS AND OTHER TEXTURES LIKE IT WILL GLITCH OUT! | |||
You can play this game in Widescreen but DON'T use Widescreen Patches just go into the Window Settings or GS Window and change the Aspect Ratio to Widescreen (16:9) | |||
