So currently I am playing Ys VIII on my PSTV and I realized that the game has this adaptive resolution scaling going on. Basically whenever the game reaches a fps threshold it lowers its internal resolution, making everything look extremely low res. Is there a way to deactivate this through hex editing the eboot? I know of resolution hacks for games like Utawarerumono (I actually did it for Mask of Truth myself). But what about this resolution scaling in Ys VIII? Are there maybe other games that do this as well and in which case it was sucessfully deactivated with hex editing the eboot?

Are you overclocking the console? I'm currently playing through the same game at 444/222 and the resolution doesn't drop because the frame rate doesn't when running at full speed.

I think game perform better as is, if you overclock it. Dynamic is called dynamic because it acts according to hardware load. So when overclocked you see drops less

    Wish they would let us play the NCAA football 14 on newer xbox, its one of the only games I love and own on disc still, that is not back compatible, bs.

    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
