[edit] [purge] Template documentation

Adds common text to the "Problems" portion of GameCube titles that have problems with Dolphin's modified font. See {{Problems}} for other shared problem statements.

Usage

{{Problems/GC Font}}

Example

Improper GameCube Font

Due to copyright concerns Dolphin is unable to include official GameCube fonts, and instead uses Droid Sans. Unfortunately Droid Sans does not align well with the size/kerning of the official GameCube font, which can cause text to be misplaced, dialogs to display improperly, and other issues due to augmented text sizes.

This can be corrected by including a region appropriate GameCube IPL (i.e. BIOS ROM) under <Dolphin User Folder>/GC/. A GameCube "IPL.bin" can be acquired from a real GameCube using Swiss. Refer issue 8362. GameCube BIOS files used by Dolphin are named "IPL.bin", but may have other titles depending on their source, and should be 2,097,152 bytes in size. One exists for each major GameCube region (JP, NA, EU). The known BIOS CRC32 checksums below can be used to validate files, but variations with other checksums may exist.

Region	CRC32
Europe (EU)	4F319F43 DD8CAB7C AD1B7F16
Japan (JP)	6DAC1F2A D235E3F9 8BDABBD4
