Sonic Forces 1.1 60FPS IPS Patch

[ChanseyIsTheBest]

This is a .ips patch for Sonic Forces which only works on version 1.1 update of the game. I have been trying to make a Sonic Frontiers (the game we all prefer) 60FPS cheat/patch using Ghidra for the first time but no luck so far so hopefully this patch for Forces leads me on the right path because they are made on the same engine.
One patch already existed for version 1.0 from @theboy181 which I used as a reference to make this patch for 1.1 so credits to them.
If the game cannot maintain 60FPS the game speed will slow down and drop to 30FPS - recommended minimum OC 1581/921/1862.

This game is 60FPS on other platforms however there are some physics related issues due to the framerate change.
Bug: Stage 8, unclearable unless you take an alternate path with the lightning wisp. Need to hold down-right on left stick after leaving Null Space in Stage 25 in order to avoid instadeath. Stage 20 is unclearable.

To install extract attachment to SD card - .ips patch must be inside a folder in atmosphere/exefs_patches

Hi! Work version 1.1.1? Do you have Mod 1.1.1?

This patch is already for the latest version and will work if you have the latest update of Sonic Forces. You can tell it's the latest because the filename of the .ips matches the latest BID on Tinfoil.

Hey I put this on my modded switch and it dropped down to 30fps like you stated. Even when I overclock my switch to the max (1785mhz cpu, 921mhz gpu, 1600mhz ram) it still drops to 30fps and my switch shows a low battery icon and turns off even though it isn't dead. is the switch just not powerful enough?

Are you trying to overclock in portable mode?

Are you trying to overclock in portable mode?

Yeah. It also does the same when I plug it into my PC to charge. I cannot plug it directly into the wall with the Stock power adapter and it won't work on the dock.

My switch has a faulty Charging IC which ill fix at some point

The crazy thing is im able to keep 60fps in Sonic Colors Ultimate most of the time on battery. When I set the GPU clock to 768mhz that is. Im using sys-clk with uncapped gpu.

This game is double buffered. Meaning if you can't maintain a perfect 60fps the game will immediately drop to 30fps. Colors Ultimate on the other hand is triple buffered.

I would suggest using the FPSLocker patch for Forces instead as it patches the game to triple buffer + with fpslocker you can underclock the display to 40hz for example to get better performance without high clocks for erista handheld and use some overclock software like EOS or HOC to undervolt if you are going to use such high gpu clocks on battery.
