Used mostly default settings for plugins. GSdx needs native resolution & logarithmic Z
Speed hacks all ticked, and EE 2x cycle rate
Advanced: clamp mode needs to be extra+preserve sign or it will freeze at the start of a race with other cars. Racing solo it can be unticked without issues and is faster. Racing solo (time trial etc) is easily 60fps at all times.
Issues apart from above are some missing text + missing graphics (cars etc) in the track and car select screens.
Star Ocean 3

Yes, these screenshots were taken from the first half hour or so of gameplay, but so far i've gotten to chapter 6
There have been minor graphics glitches throughout (some were in the screenshots i think) and the most severe issue i've had so far is entering a screen leading to an event or boss fight where the 'camera' goes to the very top of the screen and you have to exit the dungeon and go back in to proceed
This game is wrongly listed in the compatibility database as not being playable, but it is playable if you use these settings.

The only problem is as you can see in the 2nd pic, graphics on the car select screen are garbage but other than that the game is fully playable and vehicles while in-game are displayed correctly.
