That's not true, there's been a working dynamic fps mod out for years for version 2.1.0 available from here: https://github.com/masagrator/Xenoblade2DynFPS. By targeting 3.0.0 for your HD resolution mods, you make it impossible to have proper HD resolutions and 60 fps at the same time. There are other essential mods like the patch for the glowing icon increasing in size constantly in Torna: The Golden Country that only work on 2.1.0. Please consider making a version for 2.1.0 so that users of older mods don't have to disable them to use the HD mods

either that, or masagrator updates the dynamic fps mod to 3.0.0.

There is a supersamplig 2x mod for version 2.1.0 here:

I have FPSLocker patch for that. I don't care about emulators.

Xenoblade 2 v3.0.0 All-in-One Graphics Pack

The graphics patches have now been ported to Xenoblade Chronicles 2 update 3.0.0 and combined into a single all-in-one package.

Each version includes the resolution patch, disabled dynamic resolution, enhanced graphics settings, the required `lib_nx.ini` redirect, and improved character LOD.

Available versions

x2.0 (2560×1440)
x2.1 (2688×1512)
x2.2 (2816×1584)

x2.2 is the highest stable scaling confirmed during testing. x2.3 was not included because it became unstable during normal gameplay. It could still crash the game. The safest option is 2.0.

What the all-in-one package changes

  • Increases the native internal rendering resolution
  • Disables dynamic resolution scaling
  • Disables color reduction
  • Enables TMAA
  • Enables SSAO and TSSAO
  • Enables screen-space reflections
  • Enables bloom and godrays
  • Enables depth of field
  • Enables lens flare
  • Enables cloud shadows
  • Improves the LOD quality of character models
  • Keeps the original 30 FPS timing

The LOD patch affects character models, party members, NPCs, and similar models. It does not increase the draw distance of terrain, vegetation, or distant world objects.

Alternative INI profiles

The package also includes three optional `lib_nx.ini` profiles.

Core DRS Lock
The safest option. It disables dynamic resolution and color reduction without enabling the heavier graphical settings.

Balanced Enhanced
The default profile. It enables the main visual improvements while keeping half-resolution shadows and transparency effects for better stability.

Full Quality
Uses full-resolution shadows and transparency effects. This profile has the highest GPU and memory requirements and is best paired with x2.0 or x2.1.

Only one resolution version and one INI profile should be used at a time.

No FPS or gameplay timing changes are included in this release. A separate dynamic FPS patch may be added later.

The "three optional lib_nx.ini profiles" are missing from the currently attached X2_3.0.0_All_in_One_v6.zip, also the 2.0x folder is mislabeled as 2.1x but I can live with that.
 
Is this game really unable to run properly or smoothly? I’ve tried several emulators such as Eden, Citron, and similar ones, and I’ve even used a 60 FPS mod, but the game frequently experiences sudden FPS drops. This makes moving around or going anywhere feel very choppy. I’ve already tried using low settings and various other settings, but there is barely any difference. Is this normal?
 
Yes, XC2 game engine sucks at culling. You can find even places where one wall takes most of screen but game drops to 20 FPS anyway on stock clocks.

What about Xenoblade Chronicles 1 and 3? Do those two games have the same performance as Xenoblade Chronicles 2, or is their performance significantly better?
 
XC3 runs on older engine than XC1DE. Culling problem is solved in XC1DE, in XC3 it seems that they didn't completely fixed it so to smooth out performance they used temporal reconstruction which makes it work and look better than XC2.

Ah, I see. Thank you. Maybe I should try the XC1DE first.
