'''''Star Wars Rogue Squadron III: Rebel Strike''''' is a Star Wars video game developed by Factor 5 and published by LucasArts exclusively for the [[Nintendo GameCube]]. ''Rebel Strike'' was developed as a sequel to ''Star Wars: Rogue Squadron'' and ''[[Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader]]''.

''Rebel Strike'' was developed as a sequel to ''Star Wars: Rogue Squadron'' and ''[[Star Wars Rogue Squadron II: Rogue Leader]]''.


In addition to the arcade flight gameplay of the previous games, it added the ability for the player to leave their starfighter to participate in ground battles as well as to enter and pilot other vehicles during certain missions. The game also adds multiplayer; both a versus mode and a co-op mode that allows two players to play all but two of the missions from ''Rogue Leader'' together. ''Rebel Strike'' features the ability to use the Game Boy Advance screen and controls to issue orders privately in versus mode, via the Nintendo GameCube–Game Boy Advance link cable.

Rebel Strike uses the same base engine as ''Rogue Leader'', but with even more advanced effects and hacks, including atmospheric weather, more enemies on screen at once, etc. The game has proven even more difficult to emulate than its predecessor.

=== Technicolor Garbage on Textures ===
Sometimes in levels you will see technicolor garbage on some textures. There is a consistent spot on Defiance on Dantooine on a rock by the last (4th) turret. This is a game bug that happens on console. If you pause at any point during the segment, the garbage will disappear and the texture will render normally.
=== Force 4:3 Not Respected ===
=== Force 4:3 Not Respected ===
Using '''Aspect Ratio: Force 4:3''' will not maintain 4:3 output on 16:9 displays with this title. It will swap to a near 16:9 display during it's intro animations. This does not distort the graphics in any way; but rather is zooming in because Dolphin is detecting parts of the screen not in use.

=== Unknown Opcode Errors ===
=== Random Crashes ===
Unknown Opcode Errors was seen when starting a game. Apparently turning on '''Dual Core''' and '''Synchronize GPU Thread''' in game-specific settings (right-click on the game from game list and select Properties) avoids this prior to {{revision|5.0-14019}}. After that version turning Dual Core off achieves the same result.
 
Whenever the game loads a large amount of code/data from ARAM, there's a chance that the game will crash. This usually happens during a level load, but can also happen during levels and at the end of levels. There is no known solution at this time.
 
=== Purple Models in Distance ===
 
Some models have level of detail models that rely on "Store XFB Copies to Texture Only" being disabled. It is unknown how this effect works or why.
 
=== <s>Unknown Opcode Errors</s> ===
Unknown Opcode Errors was seen when starting a game. Apparently turning on '''Dual Core''' and '''Synchronize GPU Thread''' in game-specific settings (right-click on the game from game list and select Properties) avoids this error. No longer happens in single core since {{revision|5.0-14019}}.
