'''''Phantasy Star Online Episode III: C.A.R.D. Revolution''''' is a video game released for the Nintendo GameCube. It has a card based play style, making it unique among games in the Phantasy Star Online series. The story of the game takes place twenty-one years after Episodes I and II.
In '''''Phantasy Star Online Episode III: C.A.R.D. Revolution''''' a strangely powerful Photon-like substance found on Planet Ragol has spurred a raging battle between the Hunters and a rebel team called the Arkz. The prized matter known as "The Germ" has unique replicating powers and can be sealed in small playing-card-sized packets. Warriors carrying a deck of the sought-after cards can then bring unprecedented amounts of destructive weapons and creatures into battle. Fight with the Hero Hunters or on the rebels' Dark Side and stack your decks accordingly. You'll compose several powerful decks from nearly 500 cards featuring fighting moves, weapons, and PSO creatures.


== Problems ==
== Problems ==
=== NTSC Version ===
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|
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.
=== Calendar ===
At the beginning of the game, when the game asks if you want to go to the Calendar Screen, choosing Yes makes the game freeze. You can avoid this by simply selecting No instead. If you need to adjust the date and time, you can do so in your computer's settings, or if that is not possible, the Advanced tab of Dolphin's configuration.


=== Missing Characters in Text ===
=== Creating Network File Crash ===
The PAL and JP version 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.
When configuring a provider the game will error creating the network file in a GCI folder. Configure Dolphin to use a raw memory card file.


=== <s>BBA Unsupported</s> ===
=== Dual Core De-sync ===
[[Broadband Adapter]] emulation is supported as of {{revision|3.0-732}} with the merger of the BBA branch.
 
PSO EP1&2 and PSO EP3 tends to easily de-sync GPU/CPU threads when Dual Core is enabled (the default setting for most games on Dolphin) and since this game is constantly writing to your memory card while playing online there's a chance these de-syncs will happen while the game is writing to the memory card. This may result in game data corruption making you lose all your progress and characters. So to avoid this it's recommended to disable Dual Core for this game.
 
=== <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}}.
