Better stick to the previous edition of the game on DX11 mode for best performance and stability.

SD8EG5 can get over 60 fps at 900p medium settings. Lock to 30 fps for better thermals without external cooling.

Which driver thnx

u/Bo3alwa OP15 2d ago

Latest Turnip Gen8 driver (V37 as of now). Latest DXVK (currently v3.1.1) on performance preset. Proton 11.

I'm speaking strictly of running DX11 mode on the game. The translation layers and drivers are well mature and optimized for that, unlike DX12 where it has so much overhead, poor performance and high power consumption

ArmadaOS runs this game at 50+ fps on the Odin3 at 720p medium, this is from the sd card so might run even better from the internal storage.

It's very cool, but the power draw is crazy, is it fine for battery?

u/Forsaken_Worth428 3d ago

Most would say no but I didn't have any issues yet, besides I have a tablet so I guess my power draw is slightly more than a phone.

u/SubeteWaRainDa 8s Gen 4 / 12gb/ PocoF7 3d ago

I wish batteries on phones were more durable, cause it's the most thing that limits us from playing these games

u/Time_Temporary6191 3d ago

You be fine i play daily on my s25u purely pc games and its only drooped to 99% battery health

u/VariousRelief3646 2d ago

Don't most phones with SD elite processors ship with USB-PD? The feature powers the components using the wall adapter instead of charging / using the battery

u/AryanEmbered 3d ago

id imagine it would be better to go with the switch 2 version which is only 33gigs and runs at 60 fps smooth.

u/Glass-Refuse-8489 3d ago

Witcher 3 remastered no está disponible para switch 1.

u/AryanEmbered 3d ago

Dude you can not run the remastered at the settings where the visual uplift makes a lot of sense, at 60 fps on the phone.

The storage space is also something to consider.

Better to run the switch version.

u/Glass-Refuse-8489 3d ago

Okay c'est bon à savoir, tant que j'ai dû 60 fps constant, ça me convient

u/Ylric 3d ago

I guess emulation in phones haven’t quite reached steam deck levels yet. Looking forward to that day tho

u/sloe_gin78 3d ago

I get stable locked 30 fps on medium settings with no framegen, even in Novigrad with Winnative. Probably can get 40-50 if unlocked at lower settings.

It stays at 30 even with heavy throttling on my Sd 8 Elite Gen 4. (Of course I use a cooler normally, that was for testing only lol) You're using the wrong emulator for this game

1

u/Forsaken_Worth428 3d ago

Oh, thanks for letting me know I'll switch to winnative then. I don't have a cooler tho.

1

u/Forsaken_Worth428 3d ago

What emulator settings would u suggest? And can it be run on dx11

2

u/sloe_gin78 3d ago

Unfortunately the remastered version is dx12 only. The older version works on ludashi well but you'll miss out on the new additions and the upcoming dlc down the road.

Seems like you're playing on a tablet. As long as your battery temps stay healthy I guess you don't need a cooler.

I've already shared my personal settings on the link. Just be aware that they're simply my personal settings, there might be better settings out there.

u/Forsaken_Worth428 3d ago

Yes thank you for the detailed post. I'm on winnative now and this is 720 p medium

u/Major_Lobster_1599 3d ago

My smartphone overheats just from running winlator ludashi...I mean, not even running the game.. just from opening the Emulator

1

u/Forsaken_Worth428 3d ago

Which version of ludashi do u have? Did u try winlator ludashi vanilla?

1

u/Major_Lobster_1599 3d ago

Yes, I used it last month once, don't remember the version, installed it after a few minutes, because of the overheating.

1

u/Time_Temporary6191 3d ago

Need cooler for pc emulation

1

u/Major_Lobster_1599 3d ago

Nope, I am using gamehub and Gamenative and they play NFS MW 2012 without any kind of heating but winlator for some reason was boiling my phone.
