I'm new to all this, I glanced around but am lost between what's for Switch and what's for emulator. I'm using Citron, I get how to use files that are posted but how do I use the codes people post?

Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition - Emulator Mods/Cheats Discussion​

Just had my first texture explosion:

 

[Ardass13]

Hi, why turn "Use fast GPU time (hack) " off . What negative effect do you encounter in Xenoblade X with this option on ?

For me "fast GPU times" is only useful at normal accuracy. At high accuracy, the resolution remains stable. And for me, each Xenoblade required high accuracy to avoid visual glitches.

This was the case on Yuzu, at least, and I have a feeling X has the same problem. High mode requires a bit more resources, but it works perfectly for me.

Also can you test this new version too?. If you notice any issue please: Report it sharing a video recorded + explanation of your issue + explanation about how to trigger your issue.

60FPS in gameplay
60FPS in real time cutscenes
30FPS in pre-rendered cutscenes

I've tried both your v1 and your v2 of the "60FPS (60-30FPS Cutscenes)" mod on Citron.
The cutscene when you first arrive in the open area of Primordia still runs at 30 FPS. This isn't a pre-rendered cutscene. The rest of the game including the dialogue scene just after that cutscene runs at 60 FPS. So either your description of the mod isn't accurate or it doesn't work as intended.

Also, when it goes down to 30 FPS in that cutscene the frame pacing is uneven, looks quite jarring next to the rest of the game running at 60 FPS.

The description is based on the NPC talk fix (When you talk to a NPC on the other mod version (60FPS gameplay + 30FPS cutscenes), the FPS drops to 30).

Fl4sh said that the reason of the slow message on "Mission Completed" is due to the cutscene.

Before it was everything 30FPS. With the new FPS mod the "Mission Completed" message screen is 60FPS. I switched to the new mod to test it and now that's 60FPS.

That makes that moment a 60FPS in real time cutscene. Everything else running at 30FPS it's a pre-rendered cutscene.

Is this for Ryujinx emulator? Im trying to put in mod directory but it is not working

it's for Citron

 

[Fife Dawg]

Anyone know how to get the cheats working for Ryujinx on the Steam Deck, I’m using firmware 19.0.1 and the latest prod keys and version 1.0.1 of the game, tried multiple different cheats posted from the working list in main forum and every cheat causes the game to freeze when I try to load my game, the game loads fine if I don’t run any cheats, any help would be much appreciated.

are we supposed to enable both mods on the folder?

You just have to enable 1 ...

Choose if you want to play 60FPS Gameplay and ALL cutscenes 30 or

Choose if you want to play 60FPS Gameplay + 60FPS real time cutscenes + 30FPS pre-rendered cutscenes.

And don't forget that the cheat must be enabled. Otherwise the mods won't work properly.

.pchtxt + cheat files must work together.

That's all ...

Is it normal to have 1-5 fps when game starts up? Citron emulator rtx 3090 Oc'd and 5800x Oc'd. Turned off all mods, No aa, 1x, Vulkan, Bilinear auto accuracy. If there are any specific settings in NVCP that can cause issues. Let me know. I googled and could not find anything.

They said that they're having FPS drops after 30 mins or 1 hour of playing the game.
