Yes, I am developing it, but I will not work on recreating the .ard. Mods in this way are unfeasible, so soon we will have something like XC3 to read outside the .ard file.

I'm using a fork of Ryujinx, Ryubing, it seems to run normally.

Thanks ! I try it but doesn't work, maybe cause I'm an AMD user 😭

Can't seem to get it to run on either Sudachi, or Citron. Just an infinite loading loop.

People have suggested Ryujinx, but any build i use just instantly crashes when i launch any ga

Same here, are you AMD graphic card user ?

ive done that. Ryujinx as a whole just doesnt want to work, ive fresh installed and it still crashes whenever i launch any game. it used to work too

Wait ive finally figured out Ryujinx at least. I rolled back the firmware and keys to 19.0.0, and now Xenoblade X will launch

I truly don't want to beat the game again, already did it on Wii U. Is there any cheat code for Ryujinx to deal 99999 damage so I can rush the game until the new epilogue?

i doubt it, usually people cant start working on modds and cheats until the official release to stave off the nintendo beatdown
 
The ard/arh extracted files does not have a normal directory and name, it is not easy to made some mods.

the files don't have names. It seems like there weren't any names in part 3 either, people just picked up the cache.
But some textures have names, but they are meaningless names. Ex:cache_wd2003014r//comp//000
 
I can atlest tell the Character model files are Wimdo/Wismt like the main 3 on Switch already. and not the Camdo/Casmt(?) like is was before on wii-u but i don't have matching files to test the blender/noesis scripts

did you managed to repack it to run? i've tried repack with/without compression, the game freeze at title screen then crash.

I tested his, and the packaging part really doesn't work. Some things are missing in the final file, whether using compression or not.


I had to make my own version, but the way ARD is being packaged makes it unviable to create a mod.
I only did it so I could translate it into my language(PT-BR) and make corrections in-game.

I'm not sure if it will help much because you'll get stuck on the .bdat files. They came in a different format as well, and from what I've researched, they probably won't work with the tools available today.
I had to create one too, but my tools aren't easy to use. It's better to wait until the game's release, so the community can develop better tools.

i already managed to edit .bdat files. The only things left is repack the archive. No worry, i dont want to force anyone to share their tool, nice day.
