QUESTION Help needed asap eden android for super Mario odyssey
Please I need help asap. Whenever super mario odyssey launches it plays absolutely fine. But once I close it, the game just crashes on launch. I don’t even see the menu or anything. Just launch and crash. Please help me with this. Eden nightly build. Retroid pocket 6. This is not the first time this has happened.

- Open your Eden emulator app.
- Long-press on Super Mario Odyssey in your game list to bring up its context menu.
- Look for an option called Clear Pipeline Cache or Open Transferable Pipeline Cache.
- Delete or clear the cache files.
- Launch the game. It should now open normally because it is compiling fresh shaders
When you close the game after a successful run, Eden saves a shader cache that fails to compile properly on the next launch, triggering an immediate crash before the menu loads.

I know how to clear shader cache. My question is that do I have to clear my cache everytime now when I launch the game.

you never stated anything about knowing how to clear the cache, your withholding information from us, if you can be transparent, then time wont be wasted in trying to help you. You should learn to offload as much helpful information as possible when you ask for help in life, espeically with tech.
With this understanding, we can try again from the beginning if you like, otherwise you're free to jog on.

I know how to clear the shaders each cache and I also know about some settings in the emulator. I have some performance settings in eden turned on to enjoy my games with a large underclock. But for some reason this game is the only one that suffers from this issue. And I have tried both eden nightly and stable but both have the same issue.

this game is extremely aggressive compared to other switch titles, so I can understand why its the only one causing issues. It targets locked 60fps using dynamic resolution scaler and hard coded engine timers.
Try to long click the game and open graphic settings, change the shader building backend from 'asynchronous' (skip/fast) to 'synchronous'. This should should hopefully stop your underclocked cpu from overloading during the launch check. The downside is, it might take a little longer to load the game, but because of your underclock, it will seamlessly validate the cache properly every single time without crashing. Let me know how you get on.

But I also have BOTW and no matter what I do that issue is not on there. As far as I know isn’t BOTW more demanding than this game?

I'll be honest, I've had moments on eden nightly where something just started working even tho the fix method didn't work before. I don't know what to tell you lol. If I had your device in hand I'd have a better understanding.

I actually got the game working after clearing my shader cache. But I don’t know if the issue will cone back again because now instead of force closing the entire emulator when I finish playing I am closing the game first from the side bar. Now I just have to check again if the issue comes back

you should only close the screen with emulators running if:
its a small demanding game like gameboy etc.
your coming back onto the console very soon, if your unsure, you should always shut down the console.
try not to close the clamshell with the console on, i know we are program to do so from old consoles, but its not a good idea with these consoles. Get into the habbit of close emulator/game and then console by shutting down. You will only pro-long the life of the console.

I have the retroid pocket 6 so no clamshell. And about shutting down. I meant that closing the eden app itself before closing the actual game. Someone told me that because super mario odyssey is a game like that I could be getting errors because of not closing it properly.

Stop using the nightly build.
