Shin Megami Tensei V 60 FPS & Graphics Mods

[masagrator]

To start topic, I'm sharing here some basic graphics mods. As a bonus all of romfs mods are enabling keyboard support that is functional, but has hardcoded keys in DefaultInput.ini. Was trying to check if I can this way get into DebugMenu which apparently has all assets left, but no luck.

60 FPS30 FPS Dynamic Resolution FixDisabling Dynamic Resolution

1. 
   It's changing FPS target to 60 with Dynamic Resolution tweaks (cutscenes are still 30 FPS locked):
   https://gbatemp.net/attachments/60fpsv2-1-0-1-zip.285239
   Just put folder "010063B012DC6000" to "atmosphere\contents"
   
   It was tested only on USA version. Should work with any update.
   If you don't have USA version, you must rename folder "010063B012DC6000" to:
   EUR: 0100B870126CE000
   JP: 01006BD0095F4000
   Asia: 010038D0133C2000
2. 
   It's fixing dynamic resolution for 30 FPS since devs decided to prefer resolution over framerate stability. Now dynamic resolution target instead of 40 ms is 33.3 ms which should give you now more locked 30 FPS at the expense of lower resolution:

3. 
   Because I couldn't find a way to disable Dynamic Resolution in configs, I have decided to make a package that can create automatically exefs patch from provided main. So it should be compatible with any release and version of this game now and in future. It's compatible with 60 FPS mod. If you want, you can share in this thread exefs patch made by yourself (pack exefs_patches folder created by package, including exefs_patches folder). Remember to attach info about titleid and game version in post (check Spoiler at the end of tab to see if anybody made already a patch for your version)
   https://gbatemp.net/attachments/dynreslockpack-zip.285226
   
   Requirements: Windows and Python 3 installed (added to PATH)
   
   1. Extract DynResLockPack.zip
   2. Extract "main" from exefs of your game's installed update (You can use nxdumptool for that) and put it to folder where you extracted files from DynResLockPack.zip
   3. Execute "Run.cmd"
   4. Copy "exefs_patches" folder to "atmosphere" folder on your sdcard. Merge folders if necessary.
   5. Run game
   
   
   Spoiler: Patches made by community

   Disclaimer: some titleids may share the same patch for the same version. So don't ask why link for EUR is stating that's for USA.

Thank!

Oveclock settings for resolution fix?

This is targeting people who prefer more stable framerate over higher resolution... So default clocks?

Love ya pal, you are a sunlight

 

[NemRe]

Thank you very much, masagrator

 

[Bahlskra]

I've never used a mod before, do I need to install something in particular ?

 

[masagrator]

Just put folder "010063B012DC6000" to "atmosphere\contents"

I think I made this clear enough...

 

[Bahlskra]

Yeah I've read that, but I didn't know if Atmosphere would recognize the mod by himself or if I needed something else. Thanks

 

[Loonelywolf]

Man,the 60 fps is crazy...thank you very much once again...

 

[shorty_bobert]

So, we should be using one or the other then? Or does the dynamic res fix only affect the target minimum FPS?

Both are editing the same files, so you cannot use both at the same time

That's what I thought. Thank you for answering

 

[JoshDevious]

Thank you very much for the 60 fps dude

Is there anything special you're doing to create the paks? I've used your other guide to create some new pak files, but for some reason it keeps crashing my game. I've checked the structures with UnrealPak's -List option, and it's the same. No clue what I should be doing differently. For reference, I am packing with version 8.23.

I've attached the mods to this post:
_working.pak is from another mod.
_notworking.pak is the one I created.

Just changing ini file will not enable debug menu, may need to patch something in the exefs main file.

Thanks a lot for this! I was expecting the resolution would change drastically while playing on docked mode with the 60 fps mod, but it's not really that noticeable in my opinion. It does look kinda bad when playing undocked, but I don't plan in doing so. Thanks as always, @masagrator.

Man what a difference the 60 fps mod makes for this game. You are a God send.

They are identical. So probably issue is with your naming scheme. I have explained in tutorial how should you name them.

Thank you so much kind sir.. Superb as usual
