    FPSLocker patch is available in Warehouse.
IPS patches for 2 & 3 are recommended over cheats because they unlock triple buffering, which helps with performance.
Gameplay speed is tied to framerate, so if game doesn't reach 60 FPS gameplay is slowdowned.

To install any of those patches, download zip from attachments for your game, unpack zip and copy "exefs_patches" folder to "atmosphere" folder on Switch sdcard, accepting any popup.

Is it possible to make it a variable framerate patch to make it for example 30 fps locked on the outside or other intensive scenes (avoids slowdowns) and 60 fps on the less intensive ones?

The 2.0.0 update is now live!
  • METAL GEAR SOLID 2: Sons of Liberty (v2.0.0)
  • METAL GEAR SOLID 3: Snake Eater (v2.0.0)
Will the patches still be compatible?
 
@masagrator any chance we can get updated patches for version 2.0.0? Thanks so much!

Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3 | IPS | v2.0.0

Mod by masagrator, ported to 2.0.0 by cucholix.

Works well on MSG 2 had to max out CPU and RAM clock to get close to the 60fps in the outside tanker (around 57fps in the most demanding area, the slowdown isn't noticeable). Power usage is not excessive and even with the overclock the power consumption lowers when going inside, so the battery won't really suffer. You can even lowerclock the GPU a little without losing performance to make the battery last a little longer since this game doesn't rely on the GPU.
 
Sorry to barge in with a somewhat out of scope question, but did a MGS1 Master Collection get a 60FPS ?
