Hacking I heard RetroArch runs in XB1 compatibility mode on the Series consoles.

it doesn't, there also is no such thing as "xb1 compatibility mode"
Shows up on my Xbox as an XB1 game not under the Series section. (You can sort games by system.) Games running in XB1 mode don't have access to all of RDNA2's features.

Sorry pal, but that was fukkin hilarious.... but aye, Retroarch is still using the extra horsepower of your Series console, trust me you're getting better performance than you would running on XB1.
there is such a thing tho. Xbox One games will use most of the performance the Series X brings with it, but it will still run in a GCN compatibility mode, which basically means the IPC improvements of RDNA2 will not be available, and of course hardware features it has are also not available (VRS, Raytracing acceleration, SFS etc.) but those features are not really relevant for Retroarch.

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -

I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
