Notepad and backspace...

I understand that but what file and where on the SD card? Thanks.

This mod crashes my game upon launch. The TitleID directory and BuildID.txt files are named correctly, and I can stop the crash by adding a bracket to the beginning of each line in the cheat file. FW 9.2.0|AMS 0.10.4|S

Other cheats work well (MGHU 60fps patch for example)

SaltyNX. Read SaltyNX repo why it's crashing.

Thanks for the advice, copying the latest SaltyNX and KIP files from your SaltyNX repo replacing the HB Appstore version (I'm guessing it's Shinyquagsire's) fixed the crashing!

I was thinking on buying switch when i saw DS on it, than i saw it runs at 30fps and i gave up, and now i see this and i want switch again!

I am also not sure where to remove the non-ascii characters. /config/sys-clk/config.ini only uses titleid, it does not include the game's title. I have not used https://github.com/Sun-Research-University/sys-clk-Editor

*: I'm dumb, this was my first time using sys-clk. If you notice, the settings provided by OP are only for charging. Plugged in the switch and OC is working, game runs great.

wow thx a lot !!!

To use this mod in docked mode I changed the TV-output settings on my Switch to 720p instead of 1080p. Works great. Now I just have to decide if the ladder bug and decreased jumping distance will be worth it xD

Anyway, I'm very impressed by these mods by Masagrator. It would be nice to see 60 FPS mods for Torchlight 3, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit and Trials Rising someday.

EDIT: I just played through Dark Souls. The game only crashed on the cutscene before Centipede Demon, and during the Ceaseless Discharge battle. I never had the ladder bug but I didn't try all ladders. Also, the "bad ending" didn't work, but that might the version of my game, not sure, it also happens when not enabling cheats. The areas with most slowdown were Blighttown, Demon Ruins, and the DLC forest, those can make the game seem half speed at times. I'm gonna continue playing with this.

I doubt this is the case but I wanted to ask:

Does OC'ing the Switch help with loading times on this game at all? I can get used to 30 FPS but going from PC to Switch, the loading times when you die are what kills me.

CPU OC slightly helps.

CPU OC slightly helps.

Mod unlocking 60 FPS and changing game speed to match 60 FPS output.
Ladder bug still occurs.

Recommended OC settings are:

handheld_charging_cpu=1224
handheld_charging_gpu=768
handheld_charging_official_gpu=921
handheld_charging_mem=1600

Only big drops I found were when resting at the bonfire and there is showed fog for few seconds and cutscenes drops to 30 FPS.
It wasn't tested thoroughly, so in later stages it may has worse performance. At least in tutorial stage and first open world it was working well on 768 MHz.
I'm sharing cheat file to avoid some bugs.
If game will have too big drops in late stages, I will try to find how to adjust resolution. Configs files in romfs are not working and so far what we found in main resulted in glitched output (layers are not scaling properly).
Thanks to @Kirby567fan with tests and ~Sup from Discord

Copy folder 01004AB00A260000 to sdcard folder:

atmosphere/contents (Atmosphere 0.10.1+)
or
atmosphere/titles (Atmosphere 0.9.4 or older)

And activate cheat

I have copied the file on the corresponding folder, and have sys click/overclocking menu installed. How do I activate the actual cheat/mod?

Sorry for necroposting this page but I attempted to do a LayeredFS mod in Dark Souls Remastered.
My goal is to change the fixed resolution of Handheld/Docked to 540p/720p instead of 720p/1080p.

I extracted the LayeredFS of the game and I found game.properties.

Havok.Debugger = false
Havok.DebuggerPerf = false

Normal.Resolution.Width = 1920
Normal.Resolution.Height = 1080
Boost.Resolution.Scale = 1.5

NX.CpuProfilier.Enable = true

I assume this is the resolution configuration of Dark Souls Remastered in the Nintendo Switch, so I edited this to 540p/720p and applied it to its contents folder but no luck - there were no changes to the game besides the HQ Audio mod I've applied. Is there a way to change the default Handheld/Docked resolution in Dark Souls Remastered Switch?

 

[masagrator]

Yes, those resolutions are hardcoded. Tried to do it and it was resulting in shaders glitches, so nope.

Curious, right? Like matching BID is important for some reason.
