ROM Hack RELEASE Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Graphics Settings

[masagrator]

How plausible would a similar mod be for Mario Odyssey's handheld mode?

Don't know. Xenoblade 2 works on it's own engine, when Mario Odyssey works on Nintendo's engine.

Edit: Revised Next Method. Now you don't need to unpack game. I've changed patcher to exefs_patch. Just put files to sdcard and restart console.

Is it possible edit the file with the graphic parameters in Torna like in XB2? Or it’s still needed replace the whole big file?

Check Next Method. If you mean DLC, then Base Settings are connected with DLC, so it should work.

In Xenoblade 2 you need the file:

msd:/atmosphere/titles/0100E95004039002/romfs/monolib/shader/lib_nx.ini

For Xenoblade 2 Torna you need 2 files, "ira.ard" being 2.5GB

msd:/atmosphere/titles/0100C9F009F7A000/romfs/ira.ard
                                              ira.arh

My question is if you can rid off ira.rad and only use an .ini file like in Xenoblade 2, and get 2.5GB back.

 

[masagrator]

Just try "Next Method". Not "New Method".

@SENSENuii mentioned that replacing the .ini file in Torna wasn´t enough

Look when she posted and when Next Method was added.

Ok, so I only need:

msd:/atmosphere/titles/0100C9F009F7A000/romfs/stream/dumpini/lib_nx.ini

for Torna?

No. Read instructions carefully.

Quote from first post:

4. Copy those two folders to sdcard main folder of your CFW

 

[cucholix]

Oh, didn't know that atmosphere could be patch games outside titles folder :o
I got it now, will try once I get home, thanks!

Edit: @masagrator it worked fine, I recover 2.5GB from my SD :3

Still no compatibility with SX OS? Looking forward to playing this without the awful sharpening filter.

What profile do you recommend for handheld max-OC (official charger)?
Raw or like docked?

I use "like docked" with some of the sharpening toned down a little bit. Running it at about 684p (iirc), stable with max handheld gpu/mem and sdev cpu. Should run fine at 720p if you're using max official charged OC with it, but I use mine without a charger so I cant be certain.

Neither. I use the IPS patch and a manually tweaked configuration with certain things disabled, though it's more similar to raw than "like docked" because I'd rather have consistent 720p than blur.

Could you send us that tweak?
