ROM Hack Question Link's Awakening FPS drops

[Syynx]

Is there any project in the works to make Link's Awakening run a little better? Maybe like disabling autosaves or removing shader effects or something? Even with OC the framedrops are happening often and are severe.

It seems clear to me that if Nintendo hasn't patched it by now they don't ever plan on patching it.

Shaders and autosaves have nothing to do with it. This is asset streaming issue.

You can dump the entire romfs and place it in atmosphere and it works fine without FPS issues

This is mostly visible for cartridge owners and it's not 100% drop free.

Yeah I have it on cart after I finished it I haven’t played it since, or probably ever will

Piss poor optimisation on Nintendos part. Really lazy update and not good enough tbh. Was the last switch game ill ever buy! 100% piracy all the way now

Playing in handheld mode with the memory bandwidth set to 1600MHz and the GPU to 768MHz should remove most of the frame drops.
