m (Figured I'd just quickly change the number of online players down to 0, as even if Dolphin supported the BBA, the unofficial servers BARELY work with Episode 3, and the official servers have been dead for eons.)

=== <s>NTSC Version</s> ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
<s>The NTSC version does not boot, only displaying the error "ERROR: Trying to compile at 0. LR=00000000". The PAL version works perfectly in comparison, minus the online mode portion of the game.</s>
=== Calendar ===
Syncing the calendar causes the game to crash. Despite what the game indicates when first run, one can play the game normally without the calendar; so when prompted to sync it at the beginning of the game, simply select "no" to proceed.


Apparently sometime between the time of this bug and stable release 3.5, the crash was fixed, as the NTSC version boots flawlessly now.
=== <s>Black Video</s> ===
FMV cutscenes such as the intro on creating a new commander appear black unless the External Frame Buffer is enabled and set to Real. Fixed by {{revision|5.0-5874}}.


=== Missing Characters in Text ===
}}}}
All versions of the game may have missing characters in various game text, per {{issue|30}}. Such can be resolved by setting accurate texture case towards a "safe" setting, though it's unclear what setting is necessary.  Middle seems to work fine, though there may be 1 or 2 missing letters every once in a long while.


===Calender===
== Enhancements ==
Syncing the calender causes the game to crash. Despite what the game indicates when first run, one can play the game normally without the calender; so when prompted to sync it at the beginning of the game, simply select "no" to proceed.
