Did the game is really lagging?
Played 6 hours straight and I personally thing is super smooth?
Will it stutter in late game?

I heard someone said in Facebook the game speed is tied to the fps count, so it just make it super fast instead of smoothing it out.
Not sure if this is true though.

It only struggles in wild area overworld when connected to the internet (not in battles though), but otherwise it's a pretty stable 30FPS all around

Well since 60fps is impossible I at least hope they come out with an AA mod or something similar to get rid of these jagged edges or a view distance mod so everything stops popping up in your face.

Yeah, I didn't notice any lag at all when playing the leaked copy but when going online on my cartridge, the wild areas got pretty laggy. Seems like there is a lag spike every time a player spawns in, which happens a lot. You don't really benefit much from being online in the wild areas. You get a lot of ingredients for curry, but no one ever joins the raid battles, so you don't really lose out on much by going offline most of the time to avoid the lag spikes.

so, your hacked switch play both xci/nsp and the cartridge one?

Maybe there is a float variable that controls the game speed, like many other games, it is just a matter of finding it.

Many games doesn't use just 1/30, but slightly lower like 0.315 to not desynchronize with vsync if framerate will drop. This can be in many forms like 1/30, 33.(3), float, double, as part of instruction if 30 (fmov, etc)
And in most cases you won't find it that easy. Only Xenoblade 2 was using straight 1/30 float from all games that I checked to lock to 30 FPS, but it needed additional timescale editing.

I will probably check it when I go back from work.

Thanks for looking for this and all your hard work on the other patches and I hope we somehow get proper 60fps in the end.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
