This game suffers from different shadow problems depending on your mode of choice. I could only get around 40FPS and overall I found that DX11 HW offered the best speed with the least amount of issues.

* D3D11 > OpenGL > D3D9 in terms of graphical glitches, but OpenGL has better colors.
* Use Alpha fix with D3D11 to remove stripes.
* Use Disable Depth Emulation fix with OpenGL.
* -1 EE gave me a speedup without side effects.
* Disable MTVU when loading into game. In-game it can be turned on again for more fps.

==Trivia==
* Original names: '''트랜스포머''' (SLKA-25175)
* Also known as '''Transformers Armada: Prelude to Energon'''
* Not to be confused with [[The Transformers: Call of the Future]] (known as just Transformers) and [[Transformers: The Game]].
* The game has a built in 16:9 widescreen mode that results in a larger portion of the world being visible. Enable it in the main menu Options. The downside is that the HUD and menu elements appear stretched.

{{Issue
{{Issue
|IssueName=Game Crashes
|IssueName=Game does not load

|Description=The game gets stuck in a black screen after starting a new game or continuing an existing one.
|Workaround=Go to Emulation Settings/Speedhacks and disable MTVU.

{{Issue
|IssueName=Cannot move right/backwards at full speed
|IsFixed=0
|IssueLevel=1
|Description=When trying to move right/backwards while looking forward, the character does not move at full speed even when the analog stick is fully pressed. Moving left/forwards while looking forward does not exhibit this bug. Even when reversing the X/Y axis on the stick, moving right (stick fully left in this case) at full speed is not possible. Changing the joystick sensibility has no effect either. Observed on Linux, OnePAD 0 1.3.0 and OnePAD 0 2.0.0.
|Workaround=When moving right/backwards, move the stick slightly towards the diagonal.
