Homebrew RELEASE UnityGraphics - Graphics settings for Unity games

[masagrator]

UnityGraphics

This is a combination of SaltyNX plugin and Tesla overlay that allows to modify in real time graphics settings in games using Unity engine.

Requirements:
- Atmosphere (This is related to dmnt:cht that allows homebrews for reading build_id of running games. SX OS doesn't provide this info). Not tested on ReinX
- Tesla environment
- SaltyNX
- File with offsets dedicated to game (you can find storage here: https://github.com/masagrator/UnityGraphicsWarehouse)

More info in repo:

--------------------------
If you want bring support to any other Unity game and you know how to unpack exefs and disassemble main, I can provide help if tutorial at Warehouse is not easy to read.

As I'm going from Monday to work for next 3-4 weeks abroad, I'm releasing this now.

For now only supported game is Pokémon Mystery Dungeon™: Rescue Team DX 1.0.2 (TID: 01003D200BAA2000) and only Quality category. There will be more if more people will help with expanding support.

For now have fun. Probly next bigger update will come in the end of next month.

This is very big, congrats for you work, the ability to create our tweaks!, This should work on the majority of Unity engine games? which limitations did you face it ?

The biggest limitation was my own lack of experience. I have never used classes, etc. And I knew I need to put settings to separate files, otherwise every gui would be in main and that means main.cpp would rise to hundreds of kB, which would be a madness. I have learned enough from looking at WerWolv's overlays to understand finally how to move them to separate file.

For now only limitations I can see are when settings are not using standard casts like int, float, bool, but f.e. Vector3. But if something is using that, then probably end-user won't use it anyway + what is the best way to adjust ints and floats (for now I'm profiling buttons individually for each setting).

So it's not something big. Maybe biggest limitation is my own free time.

This looks to have awesome potential, great work!

Added 0.1.1 version

• Fixed version number in Tesla menu
• Added SetResolution from Screen category with predefined options
• Added safety for using older offsets files

Remember to update offset file from Warehouse to add support for this option to Pokemon Dungeon.

Unity doesn't accept resolutions other than defined in get_resolutions. I need to implement how to get all supported resolutions and dynamically add options based on that.

 

[masagrator]

Ok, it looks like I was wrong. get_resolutions in Pokemon doesn't output accepted resolutions list. So it will stay as it is.

This is sooo cool, thanks for it

@Kirby567fan contributed to Warehouse by adding support for Good Job! 1.0.0

Deadly Premonition 2 needs this badly

 

[Cybereu]

Thanks !
Im going to use it a lot.

Edit:
Correcting, I would like to use it a lot but I can`t even know where's exefs files are.

You don't need exefs files to use it...

Just stumbled upon this plugin and started the process of modding The Long Dark. I am completely new to this topic so I will share my steps first, to make sure I didn't miss anything.

I could follow the whole process:
- Get main from exefs via DBI and Android File Transfer App on Mac (I got the main from the update not from the v0)
- Installed Ghidra 9.1.2 (+ SwitchLoader-1.4.0-a9dc0f2-Ghidra_9.1.2)
- Dissambled main (took >2 hours)
- Found the UnityEngine.QualitySettings and Decompiled the function
- Copied all offsets to template.txt
- Created hex Files (size 272) as described in the github Readme
- Put the hex file in sdmc:/SaltySD/plugins/UnityGraphics/01007A700A87C000/9B4979A234077441907E280C6B57A78700000000000000000000000000000000.hex

-> Start Game -> Crashes (SaltyNX seems to have crashed too)

Do you have any hints what I did wrong?

(Atmosphere 1.1.1 / FW 13.0 / Latest SaltyNX)

Start Game -> Crashes (SaltyNX seems to have crashed too)

If you're doing this with overlay turned off, then it's not an issue with hex file. Sounds like SaltyNX conflict with some other sysmodule.
Are you using emuiibo perhaps?

 

[uli]

Thanks, the issue was related to (stupid) Mac Finder Application which creates dot (.) files everywhere. After running a dot_clean on my SD Card the Game starts and I can at least change the resolution successfully.
When I try to Enter the Quality Settings the Game crashes again.

Thanks a lot for your outstanding work btw. As soon as I have (hopefully) sorted this out I will make a Pull Request to your Repo and do some more Games (Subnautica f.e. :-) )

 

[uli]

I could narrow the settings in template.txt down and have now a working .hex file for The Long Dark.

One annoying thing, which might be related to the behaviour of TLD, is still bugging me.
Every time I enter or leave a building (which happens quite a lot), the changes I made to the Quality Settings are set back to the default settings. The changed resolution stays though.

Is there a way we can make the changes in the Quality Settings permanent? Maybe like the mod from cucholix for Deadly Premonition 2....if yes, can you point me to a howto or explain the steps?

 

[masagrator]

Well, I waa explaining this to @cucholix how to do that which took some time and I don't want to spend time explaining this again.

 

[uli]

Alright, maybe I will try my luck with cucholix then
