You could, but you would have to sacrifice other FX elements. It would be two modes, one of them with 60fps, equal to SpiderMan: Miles Morales.

I was thinking about something like this. Once I stop being lazy and have all the proper tools and get my PC setup this will most likely be a priority for me.

Docked is dynamic 1440x810~1013x570 at 30-25fps with max OC.
Portable is dynamic 960x540~676x380 with reduced draw distance and less level of detail at 30 fps with max OC

So maybe if someone can reduce the draw distance like in portable mode It can run at 30fps most of the time in docked with better clarity and resolution.

Would it be possible to add/mod custom music into the game? The songs are good I just choose to have my own.

Lookin for something on this. Right now I'm trying to get Cethleann up and running but to no avail as .NET 3.0 won't install.

It would be hard to say no. We just gotta figure out where it's held, what format, and whatnot. We'll get it all in due time.

You must open the "data" file in a hex editor
and you must remove everything that is before:
"ktss". Then unzip it with Cethleann.

You need a tool to extract and compress "KTSS", I don't know if you can find it, although you should look for tools on Koei Tecmo games like Cethleann to manipulate these files. You can still use Foobar's VGMStream Plugin to play them back and convert them into a recognizable audio format.

Apparently they are audios in DPS (Nintendo) compressed in Ktss. Converting Audio to DPS and compressing them to Ktss with this tool will it work?

And compressing it to Data with Cethleann back (and finishing adding what you removed in the HEX tool)

PS: It would be crazy if all this I'm saying works lol

Good?

Thank you for this information. I have Cethleann up and running now and now have to figure out how exactly it works and I'll be pumping out info.

I personally haven't tried it. I've gotten it to boot that was to dump the romFS.

The Game work okay but the FPS are not constant at all. Personaly i am in the last chapter of the game. 50% with Yuzu and 50% with Ryujinx

Maybe try not running the game on the Switch which is cheap Nvidia tech that can barely handle it even with overclock and docked mode. Emulation on a beefy PC may in fact be better for the framerate. If you're looking for better graphics then maybe this will lead to HD texture packs and hopefully it can be run in an emulator and you can get all the improvements you want there. This will never happen on the Switch itself due to hardware limitations.

Only problem with it being on emulation is that its very unstable to play for now. So Yuzu would be a great option of slightly better graphics, but at the same time its not like Cemu in terms of texture shader support and only time will make it more playable without random crashes. Also its still 30fps locked on emulation.

is it your job or do you have a source?

Does anyone know how to pack the .file from the asset/data folder ?. Cethleann doesn't seem to have that role.

steefe666 · Nov 23, 2020

i did it with my own save file. Link moveset work with almost everybody(The big problem is in the character face and the very big chracter walk under the ground).

In my save file i have given to link Kakariko Kodachi,Ancient Power Boost,Traveler's Bows,Soldier's Bow, Moonlight Scimitar,Soldier's Claymore

would removing the watermark that gets automatically applied while recording with the screenshot button be possible at all?

LinkData contains text and various parameters.
However, it doesn't have a header, so it's not clear what it means.

There should be a linkdata.idx file
