Aside from having to bypass the fletchling crash early on, been running fine for me. I got one crash in the museum at one point, but then it didn't crash when I reloaded it. The only really annoying thing is the vertex explosions. Sometimes there will just be a giant wave of black blocking half the screen. Other times, if I'm lucky, there'll just be a giant blade of grass half-covering everything.

Would love a way to fix that, but it's been generally playable at least.

Has the update crash issue been fixed yet?

Add this to the op: You can Also get past the bird on ryu by just lowering settings down to native, then up them back afterwards.

Has anyone figured out a way to link trade on emulator?

I found a shiny stone here btw. I don't know if the spawns are random but if they aren't, here you go

>>58418647 (OP)
>I CAN'T GET PAST FLETCHLING!
>Use eden up until past the cutscene, then you may transfer save to ryubing
I'm currently trying to set it up, is there a reason to switch to ryubing after that and not stay on eden?

are all mega stone unlocks tied to the story? I just beat Vinnie

>>58418851
Ryubing runs the game better

>>58418843
is there something else to do? I tried this but it didn't work

>>58418856
No but a lot are. Some are in the stone shop for high prices and others are in the vinnie building (forgot name). Some unlock in shops later in story

>>58418883
hmm okay. I dont want to just look up where to get the stones i want so it feels more like a surprise

so will it be possible to use internet with this rom?

>>58418844
Would imagine youd have to set up a private server or something like they did for the XCX multiplayer. Wait for the modders to make work arounds desu

>>58418851
Ryubing is running the game nearly perfectly on my mac. thats all you need to know

>>58418647 (OP)
>Ryubing
i can't notice any difference from latest ryujinx

>>58418875
>>58418843
I also had it on native and all stock settings, no difference

>>58418647 (OP)
Any fix for the slowdown that happens in bigger areas? Started to notice it while having to do the side quests for Emma Ryubing says it's running at 40-50 fps but feels like I'm underwater.

>>58419491
40 fps is only 2/3rds of 60 fps.

I wasn't able to fix this on my end, but I'm on an RTX 3060, i7 12th gen, 64 GB, so i dunno about you

Where do you get nsp/rom from?

>>58419765
The archives or google.

>>58419765
It's on Rutracker already.
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:bc32fd68fa27e2b1d7da0f779e5d539592c4c81d&dn=Pokemon%20Legends%20Z-A%20%5BNSZ%5D&xl=3831085546&tr=http%3A%2F%2Fbt2.t-ru.org%2Fann%3Fmagnet

How's the emulation on this? Aside from the crashes or whatever. I have a hacked Switch as well but updating it and making space for the rom is such a pain in the ass, so I was thinking of getting the emulator set up. If performance is ass then I'll just use my Switch instead, just weighing my options. I figured performance may be better cause I remember playing Breath of The Wild on my PC instead and it literally had better loadtimes and less studdering, but I know Nintendo fucked emulators since then so imagine development may have come to a crawl?

tl;dr - should I emulate this or just run the rom on my Switch, if I'm looking for performance? Neuron activation image for your attention.

Any fix for the vertex explosion crap on Eden yet?

>>58419802
There's visual oddities on emulator, and quite a few of them, but I'm running it at 30 fps 4k. And some people at 60 fps.

>>58419825
Oh, hmm. Guess I'll get to dusting my old Switch and making room. Performance is nice but tradeoff of >>58419808 style glitches may ruin the experience more for me. Will transfer my save if visual bugs get fixed though.

Thanks!

Pathetic.

why does everyone use prodkeys dot net despite the fact that the owner of the site is ESL AND labels files wrong

>>58419591
Rtx 3060 Ryzen5 5600x 32gb of ram. I figure I should be able to run the game on native resolution fine no?

>>58418875
Try FSR, 80%

which fletching is the bad one?
i've seen 2 and no crash

ios bros how does it run on melonx?

>>58419918
This one *unzips pants*

>>58419917
at that point i'm already way past the bird. Though I have no idea how to port my savefile from eden to ryujinx

>Start game
>First thing I see is a nigger

alright here's my solution of passing fletching on ryubing. I put everything back to default settings.When I enter the cutscene, I minimize the window until the cutscene is over. If I can't see the bird,I can't crash.

>>58420387
>"We made it!"
Damn illegals, always invading..

So is trade evolution with items like a linking cord still a thing? Or these retards removed it because they are cock sucking faggots and I hate all of them?

Fix for update 1.0.1?

>>58420508
make it yourself dipshit

>>58420543
Ok

>>58420472
nope, they removed it, good luck finding trade evolutions in the wild

I am getting horrible texture stretching and it’s taking up the whole screen on OpenGL ryubing and wireframe lighting in vulkan. Are there any fixes??

>>58420387
Is this nigger really suggesting that his ancestors fucking built PokeFrance?

>>58420605
Now I don't feel bad about their leaked documents that goes until 2030. I wish they leaked more. Fuck these greedy retards and their online required shit for a single play game. This game is really worse in every way to PLA.

has anyone seen rain on an emu?
or a goomy spawn anywhere

>>58418647 (OP)
Why do you keep recommending canary? It runs like dogshit compared to the latest ryubing.

>>58420878
I've seen it rain

>>58420940
I need a fix for this too. Mine is covering the whole screen

Is Beldum only exclusive to the post game or can I find it earlier than that?

>>58420976
So I just found it nvm

>>58421020
Nvm again the quest didnt let me fucking catch them

>>58420508
It's honestly not even needed for emulators.
There's a patch note out and all it does is enable online for the game on Switch and Switch 2.
So, you might not even need to add the update, but you can add the DLC. I'm not too sure what else it gives you, but I do know you can claim a set of Holo-X and Holo-Y outfits immediately.

>>58419918
It's the one that flies past in the very first cutscene after you leave the train station right at the beginning. If you didn't crash, don't worry about it.

Eden is working okay but has some glitches. When I switch back to Ryujinx, it has random crashes on Vulkan. On opengl, every character is shiny. Any ideas? I'll just keep using Eden for now but I would rather use Ryujinx.

Can you even complete the Mable requests without 100%ing the missions? Getting a trade evo is impossible at the moment unless there is a sidequest for it later. I kind of wanted to 100% it like I did with Arceus.
>>58421194
I stuck with Ryubing and have had no random crashes on Vulkan. There is some weird pop-in sometimes, and I had some structures turn into flashing textures that were fixed by just reloading the game. At this point you can't really get a perfect emulation and just have to pick what do you tolerate more.

Are there any mods for draw distance on higher resolutions and for visual glitches on ryu?

>>58421194
>>58421219
switch to OpenGL, it has the same popin shit but at least without any flickering textures for now

>>58421240
I guess the people being shiny on opengl is just a linux bug, oh well.

Can someone please explain how to install the 60fps patch on ryubing

>>58421266
open mods directory
create a folder with any name
create a folder called exefs inside
paste the file.

it's slow downs the game too much for me so I rather just use LS

thanks appreciate it

This game's cutscenes are weird as shit, the direction, timing, mouth movements imply that sound is supposed to come out of the character's mouths but there's just awkward slience.
Is there a day 1 update/emulation error or that's how it supposed to be?

>>58421107
i was 3h in still wondering when the bird would rape my game
btw i just used whatever ryujinx build i had from before + updated firmware

is there a way to evolve inkay in emulator?

>>58421240
OpenGL had the vertex explosion and texture stretching for me. Any workarounds?

>>58419875
I've been doing some mogging too

>>58420878
rain is rare indeed, only seen it twice in like 15 hrs

>>58421413
That's how it's supposed to be.
Game Freak are afraid of paying Voice Actors.

Has anyone gotten any non-60fps cheats to work on ryubing? Couldn't seem to get the kalos starter mega stones or forced encounters to work

holding l2 and mashing the face buttons somehow feels even less engaging than just spamming your strongest stab every fight

That's because the move animations look like shit and they reuse them a LOT. I think there's only like 5 for each type.

>>58418875
Thanks. It fixed my crashing issue.

Now I just need a way to boost the speed. Its currently running at like 50% speed/FPS, even with the 30FPS or 60FPS patch.

>>58422216
Everything I've used just werked on Eden
999 candies, stones and money

>>58422307
Don't use canary it's shit. Use the latest version of ryubing and opengl as the graphics backend

so how was Mega Floette?

>>58422389
wrong shot.

>>58420425
that's just smart

>>58422337
I get vertex explosions and horrible texture stretching on OpenGL. Any fixes?

Ryujinx, vulkan, never had a single issue sans the initial cutscene, went and finished with only pop-in that my mind already filtered, everything else was great.

Does anyone know where to get EV items?
Or know how you change the IVs?
I have found mints already

>>58418647 (OP)
Now what?

>>58421413
have you not played a pokemon game in the past decade
that's just how they are

>>58422520
>EV items
You can buy them, calcium and shit? I don't know when they unlocked but at the pokecenter

They named each fifth of the city a different color but everything looks exactly the fucking same. Every street, every alley, every corner, it's all grey walls and red shingles

>>58422535
ok but where are the ev reducing berries to fix fucked up evs

>>58422535
Oh, guess I haven’t progressed enough in the game to buy them.
Do you know where the berries are that lower the EVs?

>>58422557
>>58422558
Just checked, I didn't use any berry at all in my entire playthrough, I don't have any of them. Probably are post game or something, let me check

>>58422557
what in the name of god do you need to minmax EVs for in this game?

>>58422522
nvm fixed it :)

>>58422557
I know there's vendor stalls that sell berries and mints, but its one at a time.... its not great

>>58422596
Aren’t those just the super effective reducing damage berries?

>finally get this shit working
>fletchling crash

>>58422712
just reset, bro
the fletching crash is just the initiation

>>58418647 (OP)
Are linking cords in the game or am I just locked out of the trade mons?

>>58422943
there's no cable link in this game so you either trade online or you fuck yourself

>>58422943
They removed them. We need to pay for online like the good pay piggies we are.

>>58422949
Does ryubing have multiplayer or do I have to use Eden/ryujinxLDN

>>58422960
I have no clue, anon

my first shiny ever in an official pokemon game lmao
my luck is grim

>>58422943
Just use cheats?

>>58422970
you never tried to get one, even with all the methods available now?

>>58422976
>
forgot to mention that I never played Pokemon LA, but no

>>58422975
Probably will was just asking if I didn't have to though

>>58422555
prease understando, small indie company

how do you get zygarde after finishing the game? someone said in wild zone 20 but it's not there for me

does anyone actually like this combat? who are they making it for

>>58423145
I played many Pokemon games and I really don't like this battle system. Now I understand why they should keep turn based forever. Anything else is terrible.

>>58423145
I think it's okay. Not really groundbreaking or anything like but I guess I prefer the turn based more

>>58423145
It looks stupid with you and the pokemon shuffling around awkwardly. I get they don't want you controlling the pokemon directly, but there could at least be a dodge command, otherwise I don't see the point of real time combat if you're not reacting to things in real time.

>>58423145
I really enjoy it, and think it's fun to kite out close range attacks or to use specifically weaker moves over high attack versions because they come out fast or have long range. I think this gimmick is neat.

>>58423145
Yeah, it's ass. It would be fine if we had abilities and the moves had meaningful effects like the regular games, but we don't. For instance, there was no reason why they couldn't make U-turn switch out your pokemon, but instead it just makes it blink out of existence for half a second. Non-damaging moves are worthless because the buffs and debuffs don't do anything, hazards are just a little circle on the floor you can walk around, and status effects basically don't do anything. Oh no, my pokemon is paralyzed, now I'm not gonna be able to avoid that big atta- oh nevermind it just makes my moves' cooldowns slightly longer. Oh crap, fire spin, now I'm tra- nevermind I can just walk away. Oh no, I'm drowsy, if I fall asleep it's gonna be really ba- no, not really, it's just very slightly lowers your speed.

how do i make the game show up in the list? just put the nsp in the games folder?

>>58422970
>great ball

>>58423362
yes

>>58423338
toxic is the only good status move
turns alphamons to dust

Did anyone get past the stupid bird by just trying over and over?

anyone have a completed save file that i can use? old one bricked completely and dont really want to restart. yes im retarded and didnt back up my save properly

>>58423161
yes, not being turn-based is the problem, it's definitely not the part where each type has 10~12 moves and half of them don't do anything

>>58423145
it's alright
turn based is still king
also, you can't dodge while locked on to the enemy
that's their biggest sin

>>58423362
Your firmware should be 20.1.5 or higher

>>58423338
I like how roar literally just pushes the opposing pokemon away slightly. No other effect.

>>58423384
I downloaded a save that was past that cutscene

>>58423389
By not being turn based they had to change the moves around it and broke the entire game. PLA combat was fine and it worked well. Kinda looks a bit like SMT with how buffs worked.

>>58423384
I did by booting on citron and letting the glitch ass scene end then saved and continued on ryubing.

>>58423384
Okay, just after posting this, I paused the cutscene before the bird, went into hotkeys, bound turbo mode to space, resumed and held it down, and it played through. No idea what part of this did the trick or anything at all.

>>58423384
yeah, I tried one time. you guys have been talking about this bird for days while I just booted the game the moment it leaked and never encountered a crash. i'm the certified works-on-my-machine master.

How do you fix the horrendous pop in

>>58423462
that's not an emulator issue, it's how pokemon games have been since sword/shield

>>58423462
My mind just filter that I don't even notice aymore.
Its probaby fixed with the day 1 patch... but that doesn't work on emulators yet.
Wait for a mod

>>58423462
Who's gonna tell him?

>>58423462
Wait for nintendo to release the switch 4 and port the previous games

>mega toilet is hideous
>gen 5 starters are ass
Never in my boomer life did I think I would pick this but here we are.

Is there a fix yet for the bug that causes me to cum on the screen?

>>58422712
have you found a fix? my game keeps crashing with the fletchling.

>>58423462
I wonder if the switch 2 version has these problems. Probably nobody here knows because everyone is emulating the switch 1 version.

>>58423627
idk anon, been having that issue every time taunie is on the screen. Tbh I don't mind this bug though

Eden is giving me tons of visual glitches and I get half of fps using Ryubin is citron any better?

the key have to be 20-3-0? Ryujin isn't showing the game, even though it says 2/2 game loaded (i only have one other thing in that folder)

>>58423856
Citron was the only one that didn't crash or played the game after the fletching cutscenes. But ryubing doesn't have the graphic glitches citron has. Eden doesn't even boot the game for me. It crashes the entire emulator for some reason. Weird.

Are the ryujinx cutscenes still crashing

>>58423860
I was having this problem with ryujinx emulators. No idea how it worked and now it reads the game. I think I renamed the file? Good luck lol.

Really weird, am I the only one who isn't crashing on the fletchling cutscene in Ryubing? Only issue I've been having is the game crashing on startup when trying to play with the update and the rare vertex explosions in OpenGL

>>58423881
I don't have any problems with the update but yes it crashed when the funny bird appeared at the beginning of the game

>>58423637
This is me >>58423419 but it might've been pure dumb luck

>>58423881
I’m having bad vertex explosions on OpenGL. Will the emu get updated to make this game run better?

>>58418647 (OP)
So how is it lads? Is it better than XY and everything since?

God damn the lack of voice acting in cutscenes only becomes more and more cringe with each new game. Cause they clearly want voice acting - the cutscenes don't even wait for you to continue textboxes with A anymore...they just autoplay with llipflaps and motions, but there's no fucking voices and weird ass sound effects. It feels like they just removed the vocal track from a cartoon or something. So bizarre. Why the fuck can't they just get voice acting? At least for the "cutscenes," they don't have to do every single fucking line. It's just sad at this point.

>lower alpha's hp to 0
>try to catch it a few times
>it keeps breaking out and despawning
>stop playing
skill issue I know

>>58424162
forgot to mention the stopping the emulator and fighting it over and over again each time

>>58424080
It's weird at first but I get used to it immediately when I play these games. I'm sure the voice acting would be fucking shit so I'd rather just read the text in my head.

>>58424049
>better than XY
yes but that was one of the worst games ever made and the games after it were also shit

>>58424194
They can at least do like vocal ticks, grunts, etc. It's just embarrassing that everything makes a sound but the characters themselves.

>>58424162
>>58424169
the "rng" seed is probably calculated at the start of the battle, if you're using savestates and you don't caught it once you will probably never caught it. Just spawn another one.

>>58423517
tfw I have to rent the 6th port of mario galaxy for $3000 per hour of renting it

>>58424207
true I think I'll try one more time and give up but I was just using the normal save before beginning the fight

>>58423879
i checked and this is what i got, seems weird that the nsp file is so small

>>58424250
ah, damnit i just noticed...

>>58418875
>>58422307
use multi-threading on, with Vsync on, works for me

Also do we have wifi on ryu? i want to see if that works or is it lan only

I'm crashing after speaking with AZ right after entering the hotel in the beginning of the game.

First Fletchling now this, if it's just going to be a crashfest I'll just admit defeat and buy the game for my Switch 2.

>>58424290
What are you using? Other than the fletchling, I played the game from start to beggining without a single crash.
Using ryujinx, amd cpu, nvidia gpu, 2x resolution.

>brave tepig
eh, could be worse...

>>58424294
start to finish*

>>58424301
apparently you can get mints really early in the game so you can use that

>>58424294
I've got a 4070 with an intel CPU using the latest Ryubing release. Had to swap to Eden to get past Fletchling earlier and thought that would be it.
My settings are Vulkan, multithreading on, 2x res, SMAA Ultra, FSR 100, and 16x anisotropic

>>58424307
That's good. Love me mints.

>>58424310
Almost the same.

What the fuck is this grid? Something to do with lighting?

Is PKHex available for the emulator yet?

>>58424361
As easy as typing pkhex and looking at the release page to see if it says "updated for pokemon za"

>>58424357
Huh. I think it's an artifact from the nighttime zoning mechanic?

>>58424326
Got it working again, had to clear PPTC cache. Hoping that's all it'll take for any future crashes.

>>58424361
It's always 2 weeks after the leak. You will have finished the game multiple times before it's out.

>>58424381
I reopened the emulator and it's still there, guess I'm fucked. Only appears in some places.

So what does the update actually do?

Every cutscene crashes the game

>>58424357
Change to opengl

>>58424491
sounds like a skill issue

>>58424496
Oh shit it worked

Catch rate on alphas worse? Is there something else that might limit it? Having a hell of a time with an alpha Houndoom.

Slept, spam pokeballs till it gets mad, under 10% hp, and then go for a final ball on the knock out, 30 minutes of failure.

Something i'm missing, maybe?

>>58424530
those fuckers are really hard to catch, especially if it's the last evo

>>58423990
no idea, but I've been playing around with emulators since I was 10, what I can say is just tinker around with the options to find what works for you. But remember your default settings. And remember, there's Eden and Citron and other Yuzu/Ryujinx forks out there you can try and tinker with. Over time most of these issues will be fixed. This is unironically one of the best pokemon games to emulate at launch for me so I hope you get to play smoothly soon anon

>>58424530
these fuckers are annoying, i tried to catch the manectric alpha in one of the rooftops and it took so long that morning came and the fight got resetted

>>58424530
arent there keychains you can get to increase catch rate?

>>58423865
I also get crashes trying to use Eden, can't even load the game at all

finally loaded the game, first time it crashed when that Fletchling shows up, cheched my resolution and saw it was in native 720/180, changed to a higher one, ran the game again and i'm past that point

Have any of the more recent versions of ryubing fixed this?
Outside of this, the game has been running excellently

>>58424667
I just used citron instead and transferred my save file to ryujinx to get past the fletchling part. the graphics were totally fucked and i wasn't able to watch any of it, but at least i got to the auto save

Mega Kalos Starters are DLC right? Or can you find them in game.

does this have the overworld chime when you see a shiny that arceus had?
had panic attacks about missing shinies in s/v

>>58424823
ryujinx is only being maintained. there will be no fixes.

they are rewards from ranking up in the online pvp

just cheat them in

why the hell am i shiny on opengl

>>58423300
The dodge command is unfocusing so that the Pokemon comes back to you and follows you. It's not perfect, but it's better than nothing.

>>58423145
I don't hate it, but I wish we had abilities, because it feels really basic. There's a lot of design space potential with the idea of your commands having to physically reach your Pokemon or target before they can be executed, like some moves blocking command or something like that, but so far there hasn't really been any of that, and it hasn't lived up to its potential.

>>58425292
I've never done cheats on an emulator before, how do you do it?

>>58423419
NO FRICKIN' WAY
This worked for me. I toggled on turbo mode for the cutscene and I got past Fletchling just fine on Ryubying. Thank you so much, anon.

put the .txt file with the cheats in it

how do I remove sludge and branches on the ground?

>>58425437
Think, what are branches made of? And what is that material (or it's corresponding one) weak to?
Sludge=poison type, so what is poison type weak to?

>>58424823
Don't use ruybing, use the last release of ryujinx instead

>>58425448
wait a second...

>>58425428
so the text files name is 0100f43008c44000 or the cheat code is 0100f43008c44000

>>58424049
After XY the best game is arguably Arceus, and thematically it's worse than arceus, but functionally is kind of on par I would say, though going with it in a different way.

>>58425469
looks like this for me

gbatemp has the codes you put in the .txt file, just find the codes for the mega stones you want, i suggest looking at the later pages, not the early ones because the early pages have shitty codes that can brick your save (remember to backup your saves before messing around with any cheats)

>>58425448
You can use water moves for the poison sludge and poison isn’t weak to water

>>58425511
Wtf okay, I personally smashed them with Psy moves, used Confusion specifically from a Ghastly, so thought it went this way, branches also were burned off with fire moves, so yeah. Makes sense for sludge to wash away with water tho, so okay.

>>58425507
So I set everything up and put the cheat code in the file but the stone isn't appearing in my bag.
Here's what I put and here's where I got it from.
https://gbatemp.net/threads/pokemon-legends-z-a-cheat-database.675579/page-35

>>58425571
you enabled the cheat right

>>58425590
The cheats aren't appearing when I go to manage cheats

>>58425605
post a screenshot of how your file structure looks like

also you might need to label the cheat with a label enclosed with [] above the code

>>58425620
I got it to work. The textfile I made apparently didn't match the buildID so I changed it and now it works. There's no cheats to spawn in specific pokemon right?

>>58425697
there is

>>58425712
Are they also on GBAtemp?

>>58425726
yes

>>58425734
Do by chance have the link to it?

>>58425743
the file attached in the OP should have it

Man I hate Switch emulation nowadays. There's way too many out there.
>Ryujinx
>Ryubing
>Yuzu
>Eden
>Citron
I know Ryujinx and Yuzu were shut down by Nintendo, but which Switch 1 emulators are still being actively developed?
And which one is the defacto best emulator?
I wish there was just ONE golden emulator all these devs can ANONYMOUSLY get behind and keep alive.

>>58425780
there are two active emulators and the one you use depends on whether your shitbox is capable of using the accurate (ergo, slow) one
the game has issues on all of them so it will take a while for the warring trannies to come up with hacky workarounds that get passed around or stolen emulator to emulator anyway

>>58425779
The github one?

>>58425810
lmao my computer freaked the fuck out and said there was a trojan and then proceeded to open file explorer 12 times until it stopped

>>58425834
it's literally just a zip file with a text file...

Looking forward to next week (hopefully) when we have dumps of the official released Z-A files. OpenHome and PkHex support.

Excited about OpenHome because then I can breed my pokemon in B.Diamond and Sword and transfer them to Z-A.

Generally in time I hope I can go back to Eden to play Z-A on. I like Eden's multiplayer features, like a lot.

>>58425842
Yea i dunno. I got the encounter code anyway. I just can't find the species id list.

I'm not crashing but getting a lot of slowdown, especially on new moves or something the game hasn't rendered before. Would more ram help? I'm only at 16gb

Ok lads, I've managed to fix the lighting issue using vulkan on ruybing.
Change CPU mode to host (fast) and turn OFF Macro HLE in graphics.

taunie if she ray traced 1996 super duper goddamn metallic mario

>>58426167
I want to fist the Taunietron.

I wish the vulkan renderer didn't crash ryujinx

how the fuck is ryujinx so much better than ryubing??

Why does ryubing take a few tries to actually become full screen?

>>58425798
>whether your shitbox is capable of using the accurate (ergo, slow) one
Okay which is which? I have an RTX 3080. Surely that is strong enough right?

>>58426251
I have a 6700xt, and it runs well. Not well enough for 60fps, unfortunately.

where infernape

>>58424396
based anon. i just got to the same crash in ryujinx and after slogging through the city cutscene in eden, which ran at an alleged 14fps for me and at maybe .25 speed, i was ready to ditch this shit already. clearing the cache worked.

>>58424201
>yes but that was one of the worst games ever made
NTA. Been playing since Gen 1. Was 22 when XY came out. Granted I only got to the 7th gym but that was more life stuff, I still put like 200~ hours into it, breeding, going online, etc. WHY does everyone hate it? If anything this Kalos pandering made me want to go back and start over/finish it. "One of the worst games ever made"? Seriously?

>>58426267
Which emulator you using?

>>58426335
It was fun when it came out because it was the first gen in a long time where there was actual discovery and not a day -7 datamine or Japanese copies out for half a year. The online was good because the 3DS wasn't hacked and there was reason to play with other people. They even made breeding and EV training the least shit it's ever been with no strings attached. That ship sailed and the game does not really hold up well without that sense of community. I tried a second playthrough a few years ago when my Internet was out for a couple days, and I just couldn't get much further than the third gym.

>>58426354
Ryubing.

where are people getting the rom from anyway? is there a torrent link somewhere?

>>58426396
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:7b9ca554ef4e4e765252786ff6ad3f80a94adf5f

Why is the draw distant better on Eden than Ryu? Near the start after you catch 4 more pokemon and head to the research lab at the door I can see the scaffolding at the corner of the street. But on Ryu I cant, even when I stand near the corner of that street before you get stopped by the call the scaffolding is popping in and out of view. Eden has all the graphical glitches and runs smoothly even when new actions happen. Meanwhile Ryu graphics are stable but has horrible draw distance and lags and freezes momentarily when Im assuming its compiling shaders for new things and actions.

>>58426408
jokes on you im into that shit

Is there any way to claim the pre order mystery gifts as of now?

bro what the hell is .nsz

I emulated SwSs and S&V in old Ryujinx, and while Swird ran well, Scarlet ran like shit. Might be my dusty PC tbqh.
So how does ZA run on emulation (specially on lated Ryujinx port), compared to S&V?
And is true thta most new Megas are locked out until Post game? And same for Kalos starter megas?

>>58426578
nsz is a compressed nsp

>>58422976
not that anon but shiny hunting always felt like a waste of time

>>58422976
It doesn't count if you force one to spawn.

okay i got past the fletchling but now i just keep crashing when my rival brings me to the roof of the hotel, any ideas on how to get past this? tried fiddling with a bunch of settings but no dice
i switched to eden for the fletchling and it worked fine then but now for some fucking reason it's just a black screen

>>58426221
>>58426167
is this some yuzu update or why does it look like that

>>58426221
What version?

>>58425511
stinky pokemon players hate water

If anyone want a Dratini. I found the noodle up on this rooftop.

i am currently reading this whole thread and good luck with your low ass life as i will ask nintendo to take down this emulator community

>>58425780
>but which Switch 1 emulators are still being actively developed?
Citron, Eden, Ryubing, Kenji-NX which no one in this thread seems to use. All of them are.

do we know how clothing stores work? does the inventory change?

is this the worst game I’ve ever played? hard to say for certain, but it’s at least in the top 5 worst games I’ve ever forced into my brain at the very least. for real this game is a 1/10. and I’m someone who kinda had fun with SS and SV.

>>58425337
>Bello, no?
No, it's "hello"

>>58427310
But it's way better than sv?

Why do I have so much stuttering today if it worked perfectly fine yesterday?

>>58427373
Have you tried turning it off and on again

>>58427361
s/v is turn based
that alone makes it better than this

>>58426656
runs near perfectly on ryubing for me once you're past the world ending fletchling

>>58427410
Yeah, I think restarting my pc worked

>>58427361
no, it’s worse than sv

Is the update good yet?. On Ryujinx/ryubing

anyone want to try online play on ryujinx? it says its possible if we all have the same version of the gameyttso

Has anyone got the 60fps patch to work without speeding up the game on ryubing? My computer can handle it fine but the game seems to be running faster than it should be

>>58418647 (OP)
Is it normal that objects around me flicker all the time? like boxes and grass appearing and disappearing, is this currently the best we get emulating this?
Also I mapped my controller properly and outside combat it works but during battle my moves are not mapped properly to the buttons, how do I fix this?

>>58427361
lol no
and that says quite a lot since sv is also trash

>>58428044
The flickering stopped when I changed from handheld to docked mode, I didn't have that by default for some reason.
I also kept crashing when meeting the hotel manager but it fixed after clearing PPTC cache (clearing shader cache did not help)

i need a female save after fletchling

>use an aurorous
>it doesnt learn Power Gem despite being a TM
ONE
FUCKING
JOB
I am so mad ngl

>>58428258

Any way to stop having the game stutter like a cunt on ryubinng? Both the suggested canary and latest canary do this, it's as if it's not caching shaders correctly or at the very least not loading them back in right.
Example:I start the game, throw out a mon, game stutters on pokeball effect and doesn0t happen again. Close the game, open it back, it does it again

>>58428307
thanks

Will/ is ryubing getting updated to run this game better? Have any visual glitches/ OpenGL vertex explosions been fixed yet?

are kalos megas going to be DLC content other than the starters?

Has anyone found any wild Aromatisse or Slurpuff?

>>58428721
Same question but I also have trouble finding Steelix and Scizor

>>58428743
I've caught Steelix, postgame quest, be careful it's a one off afaik

best way to increase performance on steam deck besides clock speed?

>>58428768
I missed that one unfortunately

The other tradable Pokemon I managed to get them fast travel multiple times next to the last Wild Area

I’ve got a 3090ti. I’d that too weak to get constant 60fps on ryubing?

>>58428627
>are kalos megas going to be DLC content other than the starters?
Yeah, Meowstic.

>>58428842
depends more on your cpu is my understanding

>>58428842
I have a 3080 and it has no issue hitting 60fps so you should be good. Only problem is the game runs faster than it’s supposed to and I’m not sure how to fix that

>>58425919
Sadly, this shit did not work.
Neither on Ryujinx 1.3.3. nor Ryubing Canary 1.3.161.

Wish it did cause Vulkan gets me near consistent 60fps while OpenGL feels slower and sometimes gets those vortex explosions that Eden gets.
My only problem with Vulkan is the lighting issue.

>>58427373
Same, although various degrees of turning it off and on again have not solved it on my end, I'm very confused, I've been using the settings from the emu that was being dumped day 1/2 without issue before today inexplicably.

Has anyone managed to trade with either eden or ryubing ?

anybody get through this slog with Eden? things are running well on my end, just got to the map and mission list, but i'd shoot myself if i had to play that intro again. also, anybody get the DLC to work without messing up the base game?

I dont know about Switch emulators. Why use Eden over Ryubing Canary, besides skipping a crash-inducing scene?

>>58425919
yee naa

>>58429277
I know installing the update and DLC on Eden (or any Yuzu fork) works, as it doesn't crash the game.
The update does crash on Ryujinx, but you don't need it and can install just the DLC to at least get the Holo-X and Holo-Y outfits, which'll be available immediately.
From what I've read of the patch notes, the update is just an online enabler for Switch and Switch 2, so I'd say it's not necessary.

Do you even get anything for completing the dex? Those greedy fucks adding in trade evos again makes me not want to bother

for some reason my game stopped crashing after turning up the graphics settings HIGHER. or it was from restarting my computer because there was an update. dunno.

>>58418647 (OP)
ryubing keeps crashing when taunie invites me to the rooftop of the hotel at the beginning of the game.
did anyone find a workaround?

>>58429614
The update works with the current version of ryujinx canary 1.3.164

what's the update?

Where do i actually find the files

>>58430328
the files factory lol
