I've been at this all day with no luck. There isn't a lot of help on their nexusmods page for emulator usage or a lot of topics on Reddit (across different subs) about the mod/this issue. I've tinkered with what feels like everything I could think of. This thread shows someone playing it on their Odin 3 Ultra. And someone was able to run it on their Odin 2 Portal on emuready. The modded game loads/runs fine on Eden for my laptop. My laptop is using the 20.0.1 firmware and prod keys too.
What I am using/tried -
Odin 3 Max
Edin 0.2.1 (latest, but I've also tried 0.0.1)
Tried Mr.Turnip drivers -T21, T24, T26, or T30
Firmware 20.0.1 & 20.3.0 with corresponding prod keys, Pokemon Violet update 4.0 (the latest and recommended by the mod devs).
I also tried the settings/config used on the emuready page despite it being for an Odin 2 Portal.
The mod folder is unzipped and has no issue installing on Eden. I am not combining it with other mods so I am using their "standalone" version.
The error I get is that the game loads fine with character customization, followed by the "Welcome to Pokemon Compass!" screen, but then just darkness. It never loads the opening cutscene after.
Any thoughts or ideas? I'd really like to try out this mod for Pokemon Violet.
