@Laast would you consider this game fully playable now? I have my copy sitting on my desk at home just staring at me whenever I'm there haha. If so, could you share your full settings and what version of the emulator you are using? I gather Yuzu EA via Vulkan and normal accuracy, but I wonder what other settings you'd had enabled/disabled?

Sure:

- Yuzu emulator Early Access 2887
- Multicore CPU Emulation: ON
- CPU Accuracy: AUTO
- Rendering API: Vulkan
- Use disk pipeline cache: ON
- Use asynchronous GPU emulation: ON
- Accelerate ASTC texture decoding: ON
- NVDEC emulation: Use global configuration
- Resolution: 1X
- Window Adapting Filter: FSR
- Anti-Aliasing Method:FXAA
- Advanced Graphics Accuracy Level: NORMAL
- Use asynchronous shader building (Hack): OFF
- Use Fast GPU Time (Hack): OFF

Mods from Theboy181: 2K / 60 fps wip2 / Disable scaling / Remove outlines / Vulkan workaround (and the 21:9 mod for ultrawide display).

It is to me fully playable with smooth framerate (expect of course some loss of fps in populated areas but nothing gamebreaking), no more visual bugs and solid visuals.

I'm usually very picky when playing a game (even more an emulated one. To give you an idea, I've given up Xenoblade 2 on Yuzu because I could not stand the 30 fps cap), but this one is now really pleasant to play (I'm in the middle of chapter 3, maybe there are more problems in next chapters?).

Be aware this is emulation so it might work great on my rig and not so great on yours

Try GPU Extreme instead of Normal, it has fewer problems. High is better but less FPS.

60 FPS need good CPU. Use 30 FPS if you get slowdown.

Thanks for all of the help, @lippe and @Laast !

Does EA 2887 require MemReduct as well? Just trying to get this all down so I can test it out later tonight.

I use memreduct just as a matter of course these days.

lippe · Aug 11, 2022

Yuzu vulkan don't need MemReduct. I found MemReduct on GitHub but used it only a few times during pre-release week.

Just tried the Extreme setting (RTX3080), it also runs reeeaaally well (solid 60 fps in wild areas and no stutter during combat)

What is your cpu ?

botik · Aug 11, 2022

On AMD RX590 Adrenaline 22.7.1. On Yuzu (Vulcan), the video card sometimes turns off when you exit the game. Reconnecting the device and reinstalling the driver is required.

The Vulkan workaround has fixed almost all of the big issues with Yuzu. The blinding lights are finally gone and (usually) are replaced with the video clips they're supposed to show. But in the cases where they don't show there isn't a blinding light in it's place, so it's stilll a massive improvement. The 60 fps mod is great for gameplay, and doesn't break cutscenes like the last one, however it does cause frequent graphical glitches during cutscenes. For example, it often causes character's eyebrows to glitch out and move in weird ways. Objects that have hanging physics fly around in a goofy manner. It's noticeable enough that if you do care about story (this is a story heavy rpg after all) it can definitely take you out of a scene, so use it at your own discretion. For my part, I think I'm going to keep it 30 fps because I care more about the cutscenes being presented well.

Weird, I did not see anything like this and I played a few hours today with the 60fps mod installed.

Anyway it's a wip and theboy181 has confirmed that the upcoming final version will be bug free.

I play easily on pc games at 4k60fps but Yuzu it's 30fps with Xenoblade 3
The 3600X is too weak with the patch 60fps ( stutter ) and 30/40fps

I play without patch 60fps
30 fps is smooth ( vrr on TV)

After trying the cutscene again (one of the big ones early on in chapter 6) without the 60 FPS mod I've found the eyebrow thing (which mostly only happens to Noah) is apparently independent of that and must be tied to the workaround because it didn't happen before. 60 fps did cause the hanging textures to freak out and also, you know how I said some video clips (as in textures showing past scenes like a video clip during a cutscene) didn't play still? Well that was because of the 60 fps mod. With it off everything worked like it should.

The tweaks now are all like 1% differences. We need the particle fix to really be fully playable like the switch version. All the emulator updates and mods haven't made that huge of a difference between now and the week before the game was even released.

Before today i never used any 60fps mods/cheats and i had the eyebrow glitch for some time now. It is caused by something else.

Thanks to theboy181 for the amazing vulkan workaround. I was at some waterfalls and in some fog heavy areas and everything seemed to render correctly. Great mod.

I used the very same settings as yours but somehow Yuzu EA still crash almost at every cutscene and after a while of gameplay. this is my spec

If it doesnt crash it Run smoothly. Dunno what I am doing wrong~

GBJark324 · Aug 12, 2022

Does Yuzu have any plan to gonna fix the OpenGL memory leak (aside using the unofficial old version linked in first post)

Weird, I've never run into it before. Regardless, the 60 fps did cause other cutscene glitches I mentioned.
