I had a good run but ever since getting to the fire temple it’s crashing every 5 minutes

    Is it worth trying to play this on the deck yet? I’ve been dragging my feet because I don’t really care much about making it run and better than it does on the switch; I just find the switch itself in handheld mode stupid uncomfortable and would mainly want to be able to play on the deck instead of switching between devices

      been playing it via Yuzu EA builds. It runs just fine on the Deck at around 30fps, dipping to 20fps in some of the harder to render areas but it’s certainly playable. I play on my gaming rig as well where it can easily keep a consistent 30fps.

      If you don’t care about making it run better than on the Switch, you’re good. I did a little bit of hoop-jumping, following a guide that was on Reddit (and I don’t know if it’s currently visible) to get it running really well and also synchronize saves and mods to my PC.

      I have not played TOTK on the Switch at all, I’ve exclusively experienced the game as a PC/Deck game and it’s a damn good one. Sometimes I think “oh this must be an emulation problem” when the game dips to 40FPS (PC) or 20FPS (Deck) while fiddling with the Ultra-Hand, but then I see my roommate do the same thing on an actual real Switch and it lags even more.

        Do you have any recollection of the guide you used? I’d be curious to look around for it just in case it’s not stuck inside the reddit void. So far I’ve had luck limiting the fps to 30 and setting the gpu clock to 1200 (granted, I am only in the first sky island area and haven’t been anywhere near lava yet)

          It was from /r/newyuzupiracy which actually got banned, it wasn’t a blackout / protest thing. Unfortunately I don’t have it cached but I can check my yuzu settings later for you.

          EDIT: I found the one I used rehosted here. If you’d rather not click a link to Reddit, I’ll put the post under a spoiler here but I’m not going to go through and correct any broken formatting (or remove Reddit links):

          Setup Guide:

          1. Unzip/Install Yuzu and open the yuzu folder and create a folder named user (case sensitive).
          2. Inside your userfolder, unzip/extract the contents of the Title & Prod Keys archive as well as the Mod Folder. (Your user folder should now contain a load folder and keys folder)
          3. Setup your game directory (where you have your ToTK rom) and make sure Yuzu recognizes the game
          4. In Yuzu select ToTK, go to Files in the top left corner - Install to NAND and select your 1.1 update file
          5. In Yuzu select ToTK -> Properties -> Enable all mods and 1.1 update

          System Information:

          • Please ensure that your GPU drivers are up-to-date
          • Please note that only very high-end PCs can achieve stable 60FPS

          Minimum Specs:

          • 16GB RAM (32GB recommended)
          • Installed on SSD
          • 4GB+ VRAM (8GB+ for 2x Render Res.)

          Extra Notes:

          • Requirements for yuzu to work properly - Install C++ Libraries
          • FPS Lock (Dynamic FPS Mod) - For 30 FPS = Limit Yuzu Config speed to 50%, for 45FPS = 75%
          • HDR for Windows 11 - Rename Yuzu.exe to Cemu.exe to benefit from your HDR TV/Monitor, works very well. (WINDOWS 11 ONLY)

            • Yes, make sure you download an appimage the rest is the same
          • Q: Do I need Vulkan Shaders?
            • It’s not adviseable to use other people’s shaders, because it could cause unexplained issues. That being said using only the vulkan.bin will build your own shaders, also keep in mind sharing shaders is considered Piracy.

          • Q: I want to install a new Version of yuzu how do I?
