I've downloaded the Xenoblade2Base.zip and this is the romfs path

Xenoblade2Base and Xenoblade2Torna include exefs patch that forces game to read outside of main blob file by changing default config file path. It's not original game path, that's why I didn't mention downloading them in other methods.

Ok maybe this is a language barrier problem (my bad, I'm Italian) but I followed the "Next Method" and it says to download that zip file Anyway now I've succesfully modded the game, thanks for your guide!
Edit: Ok now I get it, I had to use the New method, not the next one.

I finally got the mod working on Version 2.1.0 using the "New method" since the "Next Method does not work on the recent update.

Edit: found new pointer, looks like it's working. And I won't release it because the biggest issue here is rendering objects that are not in view, but in draw distance. It can render whole town behind walls. Even dropping resolution to 144p and disabling every graphics option doesn't help. So wait for yuzu or ryujinx to use it. Or find draw distance.

I was wondering which line was for cutscenes so they can be locked to 30fps since you mentioned it has a separate point from gameplay. This cheat is working on emu just like your alpha IPS if you remove.

58020000 00F82308
78020000 008C4CEC
54121000 00000000
58030000 00BD7F40
54131000 00000000
94842030

It would be amazing if we could lock the cutscenes to 30fps with another cheat, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would prefer the new method to be able to use the newest updates but my game files are in "SDCARD:\emuMMC\RAW1\Nintendo\Contents\registered\gibberish", I don't have a "SDCARD:\atmosphere\titles\0100E95004039001" folder. Is the next method the only way to go for me?

SDCARD:\atmosphere\titles\0100E95004039001

"Titles" doesn't exist anymore. It is "contents" now

Beside what was pointed above... Creating folder is that hard?

No of course not but I was under the impression that config files depending on game folders being in a specific place would not work if my game folders are somewhere else. I don't have game folders in "contents" and in "titles" and I'm not willing to go back to 2.02 version so the profiles do absolutely nothing for me unfortunately.

anyone experiencing audio desync on cutscenes? ive tried the one thats dropped on page 21. i have the 2.1.0 game version. sey my sysclk to cpu=1020, gpu=921, mem=1600

ive tried the one thats dropped on page 21

On 21 I see only my experimental plugin for removing double buffer. Dunno if you are talking about that, but well as I said - it was not tested that much.

does clock speeds affect the syncing of audio?

does clock speeds affect the syncing of audio?

Incosistent FPS across cutscene can affect.

Incosistent FPS across cutscene can affect.

ive tried multiple settings, it seems im getting audio desync on higher cpu clock speeds... why though? isnt it supposed to be more consistent when the system have more leeway in terms of processing power? can you recommend me what sys clk setting i should set in order to avoid desync while using your mods?

Para que Yuzu tenga una buena resolución nítida todo lo que tienes que hacer es:
- establecer escala 2x en el emulador
- descarga el mod theboy181 desde aquí (página inferior): yuzu-emu.org/entry/yuzu-art

luego pon el mod en user/load/01100e95004938000

puedes ver la carpeta haciendo clic derecho en el juego en yuzu y luego "mostrar carpeta mod". también puede ver si el mod está instalado haciendo clic en la propiedad del juego (no se verificará después del DLC).

Reproduciendo este juego en mi PC y se ve muy, muy bien (4k'ish) con este mod. Todo es súper nítido y la resolución es de 4k.

gracias

I've tried creating folders like in post 327 and in your description on page 1 and putting them in atmosphere/contents and after spending several hours trying to get this to work on my modded switch with zero results I give up. Will stick with the vanilla version, this whole process seems like a convoluted mess that is too complicated for me to understand. But I'm sure it looks great if you are one of the chosen few who managed to get this to work.

Yes, I am in chosen few... thousands.

Well you asked me if creating folders is that hard, I explained that it is hard for me since creating folders does absolutely nothing on my system. Maybe I shouldn't have added the part with the chosen few though, I absolutely do not rule out that I'm just too stupid for this process. Xenoblade Chronicles DE works like a charm though.

XCDE was much easier since config file is loosely laying in romfs which is not true for XC2 and that's why you need to do one of those three methods to make it work with New Method being recommended.
It's not comparable.

Managed to make it work with New Method. My torna dlc was broken, after reinstalling it everything worked with folder name "0100E95004039001" in atmosphere\contents folder. Thank you for your efforts, game looks much better now.

I will shadow drop here a plugin for people that are annoyed by double buffer and game slowing down. Didn't test it too much.

It removes double buffer + automatically adjusts game speed. Removing double buffer potentially can enable framebuffer glitches (which I see with my internal 60 FPS mod), but tested it with 153.6 MHz GPU and I saw nothing, so I guess we are alright. It gives also "slight performance boost" aka less visible framedrops because of removing double buffer.

This plugin doesn't enable 60 FPS.
It's dedicated to 2.1.0 Western version.
Cannot say about compability with Japanese version.

Just put folder "0100E95004038000" to atmosphere/contents and play game.



I am working sometimes at 60 FPS plugin for last couple of years, which has some caveats that I want to start finally fix. For sure I won't be able to remove framebuffer glitches completely because doing that results in huge game hiccups and adjusting game speed is working more randomly. But I'm trying to minimize them as much as possible.
Uploaded plugin here is a derivative from my 60 FPS mod.

This great! I never experienced Torigoth area without framedrops before
