| Jak x || Useful for games with COP2 issues. It fixed Superman - Shadow of Apokolips's sps. || || '''Jak,''' '''Jak 2,''' '''Jak 3,'''  

| Resident Evil - Code: Veronica || Fixes games like '''Jackie chan Adventures, SpongeBob SquarePants: Creature From the Krust Krab, Pac-man World 3, Yu-Gi-Oh: Capsule monsters, SpongeBob's Atlantis SquarePantis''' freezing at a black/splash screen. Additionally, games requiring '''OPL's mode 2''' tend to have a higher chance of being playable under it. Often referred to as "RECVX" || 1.7 || '''Fatal Fury,''' '''Samurai Showdown,''' '''Redfaction,''' '''AOFA.'''  

| --ee-cycle-scalar  || {{Universal}} ||Slowest cycles speed: 5.0<br>Normal cycles speed: 1.0<br>Fastest cycles speed: 0.1 || {{Float}} || Changes the cycle speed of the EE. It can benefit core sync or performance (lowering the cycle rate may affect FMVS). The default value for most emulators is ~1.0. It is highly sensitive, as any slight change may break or fix the game. || --ee-cycle-scalar=1.0  

| --ee-hook  || {{Variable}} || AdvanceClock<br>FastForwardClock<br>MfifoDrain<br>ForceEOB<br>SO3_AudioRequest<br>SO3_AudioWriteBack || style="background:#212d9c; color:#ffffff;|4 Byte hex (offset),string,4 Byte hex (opcode),4 Byte Decimals (advanceclock value)|| Runs the specified functionality each time a selected EE offset is reached. FastForwardClock and AdvanceClock help fix core sync issues, but can be used as a speedhack. AdvanceClock stalls the EE for a specified amount of cycles (in decimals), while FastForwardClock behaves similarly. They are commonly used on CTC2 instructions. FastoForwardClock can be used on any offset. However, some offsets are ignored by AdvanceClock - it could be that this function only works on instructions reached after processing a branch instruction, likely specifically designed to work at both the start or end of a branch instruction (a loop). However, this is only the case for old emulators like King Of Fighters 2000 and War Of The Monsters. Newer ones such as Jak operate differently, where AdvanceClock only works at the end of a branch instruction (when it's false).<pre>

0x10 nop <-- Advancelock can work here on both old and new emulators ✓.</pre> MfifoDrain is still unknown, but only works on modern emus such as Jakv2. However, it seems to somehow negatively impact performance. On Red Dead Revolver, it was used on two LW instructions grabbing data from 0x1000D010 and 0x1000D000. Both instructions were located at the start of a loop. ||--ee-hook=0x0025A9F2,AdvanceClock,,500 <br>--ee-hook=0x0019F0AD,FastForwardClock

| --cop2-opt-flags || {{Universal}} || 0, 1 ,2 || {{Semi-Binary}} || Optimize flags upon recompilation. 0 is the accurate option, 1 is mostly safe, 2 is unsafe. Setting it to 0 improves FPU accuracy. For example, it fixed gravity issues (falling through the floor) in Ratchet, and Brave - The Search for Spirit Dancer. It is an insignificant speedhack which should always be set to 0. [https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/blob/58f5a5b915915293b90e7e8f34c33f9c0424d1e8/pcsx2/x86/microVU_Misc.h#L280 More Info] || --cop2-opt-flags=0

| --vu1-no-clamping || {{Universal}} ||  Enabled = 0<br>Disabled = 1 || {{binary}} || Changes the clamping behavior of the VU1. Setting specific to PS4 emulators, (unimplemented in PCSX2). It's not perfect, as some games such as Midnight Club 3, Shrek The Third, and Surf's Up do not work well with it. The default emulator's value is 1. It may slightly adjust VU1 timing. || --vu1-no-clamping=0

| --vif-thread-chunk-size || {{Exclusive}} || 0, 1024 || {{2 Bytes}} || Slows down both VIFS the lower it is(?) 1024 is the limit, with 112 being the default value.  ||  --vif-thread-chunk-size=100  

| --gs-force-bilinear || {{Universal}} || 0, 1 || {{binary}} || Forces bilinear filtering, can fix ghosting problems, and corrects positioning between pixels, such as in Pac-Man World Rally. Recommended for most games except the ones using 2D images, as it could incorrectly structure pixels' positions. || --gs-force-bilinear=1

| --gs-vert-precision || {{Exclusive}} || 8, 16|| {{1 Byte}} || This option allows the user to choose between 8-bit and 16-bit precision for the vertex calculations in 3D graphics rendering. It reduces the likelihood of visual distortions such as jagged edges, improper alignment of, or missing polygons, and model 'warping' when set to 8. The emu expects the values of 8 or 16, any other values are not permitted. It is set at 16 by default. || --gs-vert-precision=8

| --iop-tight-slice-count || {{Exclusive}} || Fastest = 0<br>Default = 8<br>Slowest=65534 || {{2 Bytes}} || Seems to slow down the iop the higher the value. Can be used to fix CDVD timing issues. || --iop-tight-slice-count=12

| --switch-disc-reset || {{Exclusive}} ||  1 = Enables resetting the game upon disc swap,<br>0 = Disables resetting the game upon disc swap|| {{Binary}} || 0 Can be used to prevent resetting the game when switching multiple discs. Useful for games like Samurai Warriors 2 that include an import data feature. Sadly this command isn't supported by many emulators, but jakv2 is confirmed to support it || --switch-disc-reset=1

| {{cellcolors|#0b9fb3|#000000}}eeCycleRate: || {{cellcolors|#03fcb1|#000000}}--ee-cycle-scalar= || '''"Potential" equivalent values: PCSX2 - PS4''':<br>300% --> Unavailable<br>180% --> 0.2<br>130% -->0.7<br>'''100% --> 1.0'''<br>75% --> 1.333<br>60% --> 1.666<br>50% --> 2

| {{cellcolors|#0b9fb3|#000000}}MTVU: 0 || {{cellcolors|#03fcb1|#000000}}--vu1=jit-sync || Some games will also require --vu1-mpg-cycles= to be between "6000 - 19000"

| CountFrameOnPS2  || {{exclusive}} || emuObj.CountFrameOnPS2() || updates FRAPS/Actual FPS reading in olympus

|ForceRefreshRate  || {{exclusive}} || emuObj.ForceRefreshRate(<hz>) || emuObj.ForceRefreshRate(50) correct values are 0, 50, 60 where 0 = default.  

| Multitap doesn't support all games || Urban reign, Digimon Rumble Arena 2, Digimon World 4, others || Lua patches || Emulator expect PS4 to be able to use 8 controllers (well, who doesn't? Even PS1 can do it...). That cause all kind of mess with controller detection when game expect multitap in second port.

| IPU runs slower than the EE, causing a freeze or a crash on an FMV || Bee Movie, Tomb Raider Angel of Darkness || ||
