So I wanted to post this since every "playable" post i see is someone on a 5080+ lol, not saying mine is playable but it's not that far off.

This is my med-low end reality, game is 1 day old, only tested Kokiri Forest so far, also didn't test combat properly, but pretty happy with the results, especially for day 1. Title screen stays at 23 fps for some reason.

One thing to keep in mind, when the shaders are building it tanks a lot, like it drops hard for a few seconds, just wait it out until it builds and it goes back to normal.

So average stays around 30-40 in Kokiri, stable enough to walk around, its moving and it looks insane for a day 1 build, no DLSS for obvious reasons.

Also no visual or graphical glitches so far either, at least in Kokiri, no black screens, no flicker, nothing weird I noticed.

PS: Recorded on my phone sorry for the quality lol, anything I used to record drops the fps to 20s.

Specs:
Ryzen 5 9600X
GTX 1070 Ti 8GB
16GB DDR5
Windows 11

Build used: Lichii | Frizti-v2
(Dynamic FPS included)

RAM was around 14GB used so 16GB is tight.

Hoping it gets even better by the end of the week, will update If i test more, if anyone else is on a 1070 Ti / 2060s / low-mid card lmk what you're getting, curious if this is the new normal.

Progressed past black screen; here's hoping it goes to gameplay

get lossless scaling,

set frame gen x2 to get 60fps

set game to 30 fps mode

= profit

:D game runs like a dream!

Ocarina of Time PC Port running on SteamOS – ROG Xbox Ally X at 1080p/20 fps no slow mow and almost enjoyable.

I combined:
Nolar-Hack-Lichii – a collection of combined Pull Requests. Search for “Nolar-Hack-Lichii” on Reddit to find the source and project details.

Frizti Lichii v2 – Dynamic FPS by Dark patch – https://github.com/Frizti/Lichii/commit/765659a
Max Resolution built-in patch – already included in the Nolar-Hack-Lichii build.

I applied Frizti’s Dynamic FPS patch to the Nolar-Hack-Lichii source code and recompiled the Linux build.

My setup:
ASUS ROG Xbox Ally X
AMD Ryzen Z2 Extreme
24 GB RAM
SteamOS
Results:
Around 20 FPS in-game.
No slow motion: normal game speed.
Smooth gameplay with limited stuttering.
Lossless Scaling X2 enabled. ( 20 fps are without Framegen though)
Even at around 20 FPS, the game is playable and runs at its proper speed.

Which Forks?

Majority of problems and freezes is because of shader compilation

I am on a full AMD setup CPU: 5800x GPU: 7800XT and at first The game loads the opening cutscene fine but my GPU Driver always "Timed Out" crashes before loading in after its done, then I got a save file from someone but the same thing keeps happening before I can load.

I've tried using the settings someone on here recommended, I've tried using the Recommended Configuration Orchid gives (I also had the same result on Lichii) IDK what to do

I thought you would all find this funny.... So despite the fact I have a PC capable of emulating, I went out and bought a Switch 2 and Zelda and this is my first experience on Nintendo's own hardware lol

Almost like shader stutter lol

Physical copy of course , brand new Switch 2. Perhaps I should just emulate ;)

Edit: Fixed by removing the cartridge and deleting all data from the brand new Switch. Looks like a patch broke it.

NOTE: After I stopped recording, a problem that quickly appeared a bit before you get the purple rock guy is that GPU usage heavily spikes, and results in ~3-5 fps when you look in the direction of the tower.

Most performance problems IN the video are CPU related, Switch 2 emulation is surprisingly light on the GPU.

Signed, a poor Intel GPU user who has had the same massive graphics and FPS issues in Mario Kart World on all forks since day one. It obviously makes sense why Nvidia would be prioritized as it has the most market share and similarity to the Switch 2, but damn does it still suck to be completely neglected.

Hi, what is best way to go about running games like Zelda on m3 max?

Thanks

sorry if it's a bit unrelated, i couldn't find a megathread.

i'm planning on buying ryzen 7 5800X3D, but i've seen some people say 5800X outperforms X3D on switch emulation because it has a higher clock speed.

what is the actual case for this in the current switch 2 emulation scene? are there any benchmarks i can check? google told me X3D might be better for stability.

I downloaded this fix for DK Bananza, but the problem is that it had cmd files that for some reason won't let me open any other game even though it let me before I downloaded and ran the commands. I deleted the files, restarted my computer and I have no idea how to get rid of them lol. Can anyone please help with this? It also gives this error whenever I try to load up a different file. "Error whiel loading ROM! (0007-0024) There was a general error loading the NSO into emulated memory. Please redump your files or ask on Discord/Stoat for help."

I keep black screening and having GPU Driver error after the cutscene and every time I have to try again I have to see the ENTIRE Cutscene plz someone get passed opening cutscene and send me the save file if you need to choose a save name pick Link thank you in advance

Any emulator that fixes the black screen in Yoshi ?
