ROM Hack RELEASE Fire Emblem: Three Houses - Outline Removal mod

[masagrator]

Does the 60fps patch use some kind of OC? Or it's just some command lines to enable and modify some aspects of the game like the Skyrim one?

Wrong thread.

Wrong thread.

The patch comes inside the files on the OP and is listed there as well. If I can download it from here then I should be able to ask here as well.

Ok, I forgot this mod includes also 60 FPS mod.
Nvm then.

It just skips the part where the game sets the refresh rate to 30hz. Of course it'll need more processing power, it's up to you to do your OC.

How do I apply this? I'm really new to the switch scene and my game's in cartridge and can't find anything cartridge specific here. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: So basically I just copy these to the root of the sd card (merging the folders obviously)? this does work with cartridge right? Sorry I'm this paranoiac it's just that due to money issues I really can't run major risks with my switch since I can't afford a new one.

I know it's too early for this, still asking:
Could someone check if that DisableOutline string also exists in Fire Emblem Engage?

Btw, how would you search for that string? I theoretically can uses Noexes to edit memory but it's pretty much trial and error cause I don't know where and what to search.

Game is using different engine (Unity), so the same approach will probably not work.

Tried to look into this, there are some "outline" related strings, but I understand too little to continue this.
Using Il2CppDumper, I could extract the main + global-metadata.dat found in "romfs\Data\Managed\Metadata".
Searching in a "stringliteral.json" generated by Il2CppDumper there were following related outline strings, I marked the ones that look interesting to me:

Spoiler: List of the mentioned strings

{"value":"Custom Opaques Chara Outline","address":"0x603EFD8"}
{"value":"DownOutline","address":"0x603F860"}
{"value":"OUTLINE_ON","address":"0x60494E0"}
{"value":"Outline","address":"0x60499B0"}
{"value":"TalkRelianceOutline","address":"0x604D190"}
{"value":"TalkStoryOutline","address":"0x604D198"}
{"value":"UI/Icon/EfficacyOutline/EfficacyOutline","address":"0x604F120"}
{"value":"UI/Icon/EfficacyOutline/EfficacyOutline","address":"0x604F120"}
{"value":"UI/Icon/WeaponOutline/WeaponOutline","address":"0x604F178"}
{"value":"UpOutline","address":"0x604FC88"}
{"value":"_DisableOutline","address":"0x60518A8"}
{"value":"_OUTLINE","address":"0x6051F70"}
{"value":"_Outline2Color","address":"0x6051F88"}
{"value":"_Outline2Width","address":"0x6051F90"}
{"value":"_OutlineColor","address":"0x6051F98"}
{"value":"_OutlineGameScale","address":"0x6051FA0"}
{"value":"_OutlineSoftness","address":"0x6051FA8"}
{"value":"_OutlineTex","address":"0x6051FB0"}
{"value":"_OutlineWidth","address":"0x6051FB8"}

There is also some other outline related stuff in the "dump.cs", but I just don't know how I would continue to write for example a IPSwitch patch.
Before I waste any time myself, I'm writing this here, maybe you or someone else know what to do and wants to try it out.

@pandavova , those addresses are pointers to those strings that will be loaded to heap. So if you want to edit string, you must edit global-metadata.dat in hex editor in such way so nothing will be moved out of their original place.
dump.cs is only to represent symbols in C#. They are useless if you want more informations from them.

Hey Bro, this mods work in Ryujinx??

Yes, you only have to change the folder structure to make it work on emulator:
Make a folder for the mod. Move the exefs_patches folder into your newly created folder and rename it to exefs. Move the .ips files from the mod folders inside the exefs folder up into your exefs folder and delete the mod folders. Finaly move your folder into the emulator mod directory for the game.
