This update introduces enhancements to the graphical settings of Xenoblade Chronicles X by modifying the game's boot configuration file. The following adjustable parameters have been identified to produce noticeable visual differences:
* sRGB Mode Toggle: Enables or disables sRGB color mode, affecting color accuracy and vibrancy.
* Anti-Aliasing Toggle: Turns anti-aliasing on or off, impacting the smoothness of object edges and overall image clarity.
* Bloom Effect Toggle: Allows the activation or deactivation of the bloom effect, influencing the intensity of light glow and scene brightness.
* Cloud Height Minimum: Adjusts the minimum altitude at which clouds appear, altering the cloud coverage and atmospheric depth.
* Cloud Height Maximum: Sets the maximum altitude for cloud rendering, affecting the vertical span of cloud formations in the sky.
Thanks to @intra0 for these awesome new mods!
**Quality-of-Life Improvements:**
- Start Battles with Maximum Tension Points (TP): Players now begin combat with full TP, eliminating the need to build up TP at the start of each encounter.
- Skell TP Retention: Skells will no longer lose their accumulated TP when the player exits them, addressing a mechanic that many found frustrating.
- Camera Settings Memory Fix: Resolves an issue where camera settings would reset upon entering areas with ceilings, ensuring a consistent viewing experience.
**Optional Features:**
- Disable Automatic HP Regeneration: Introduces an option to turn off the automatic healing of HP, allowing for a more challenging gameplay experience.
- Synchronized HP and TP Mode: Offers a new mode where HP and TP values are linked, introducing unique strategic considerations.
**Additional Modifications:**
- Blade Division Change: Restores the ability to change Blade divisions, a feature previously inaccessible in offline mode.
- Skell Flight Module Toggle: Allows players to manually enable or disable the Skell flight module, providing greater control over Skell capabilities.
With this mod enabled, you can hold A and then press the DPAD to trigger a super jump instead of having to use the mouse/touchscreen to trigger it.
Thanks to @primaviera for making this mod, and the original SwapDRC developers that inspired this port!
Currently this graphic pack does nothing for anyone but people who use the Metal build from the https://github.com/cemu-project/Cemu/pull/1287 PR.
Thanks to @SamoZ256 for making the graphic packs work on a much faster renderer!
Some users might've lost their brightness settings while this error was active. If you've enabled the Brightness New graphic pack wondering where the old brightness pack was, its now possible to experience the regular brightness workaround.
Thanks to @intra0 for adding these changes. You might have to reconfigure the graphic pack settings for the Virtual Console packs due to some internal changes.
Thanks to @Ryce-Fast for adding the new Lego City Undercover graphic pack, which allows for changing the resolution and texture sharpness (anisotrophic filtering) of the game.
The changes in this update make it so that going above 120 FPS on Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure, Giants, or Trap Team, the game no longer speeds up.
Thanks to WinnerHombre and @SuperSamus for these changes!
It no longer ignores user preferences and only applies the divide damage mod when selected as such.
Thanks to @intra0 for this change (and his patience)!
Thanks @intra0 for all of these changes!
Besides adding customizability (and support for more versions) to some existing XCX packs, this adds the following big features:
* Anisotropic filtering for WWHD and TPHD
* Donkey Kong now has coin, banana and live cheats
* Xenoblade Chronicles X now has options to change many attributes of your party like name, height, chest size, weapons, field skill, arts and levels
You might have to reconfigure some graphic pack settings after updating since the name of some options changed.
With the new bloom graphic pack you can simply choose a preset of the amount of bloom and brightness/post-processing inside the shadow land, or you can fine-tune it to your likings with the custom options.
Thanks to @KoB-Kirito for making this dedicated bloom pack!
