=== White Stripes ===
Much like Sonic Heroes, non-native internal resolutions or anti-aliasing will cause white stripes to appear on the top left of the screen.  This can be avoided by enabling the Vertex Rounding Hack in {{revision|5.0-3251}} or newer.

=== Infinite Rings AR Codes Causes Loop ===
The Action Replay code for Infinite Rings for Player 1 prevent completing the "Circus Park" "Hero Mission", which requires the player to collect 400 rings to complete. With the Infinite Rings code enabled, one begins the level with 999 Rings, causing the level to automatically complete and loop. To solve the problem, simply disable the code. For the NA version of the game, you can instead use the below alternate code that sets a minimum number of 20 for the Rings, rather than forcing the number to 999:
<pre>$Always at Least 20 Rings P1

=== 16:9 Aspect Ratio Fix ===
The built-in Widescreen Hack causes clipping issues. The following Gecko codes work as a replacement, causing fewer issues. To avoid conflicts, make sure that Widescreen Hack is disabled while using these codes.

Much like [[Sonic Heroes]], non-native internal resolutions or anti-aliasing will cause white stripes to appear on the top left of the screen.  This can be avoided by enabling the Vertex Rounding Hack in {{revision|5.0-3251}} or newer, applied by default in {{Revision|5.0-7714}}.
