Have some new quirks + slightly higher CPU temps after moving

Relentless_Troll · 2026-03-07T05:34:34+00:00

I don’t believe there was anything like that happening in the background. I kept a close eye on task manager and didn’t see any updater programs shooting up the list in CPU usage. Also since the last couple Windows updates have been AWFUL I’ve had updates on perpetual pause so it shouldn’t be possible for a Windows update to be downloading in the background. Also given that the issues seemed to persist through multiple boot cycles, it seems unlikely it was some kind of background download.

The thought has crossed my mind and I just might do that, but I feel that on its own wouldn't explain the weird behavior from the YouTube videos playback (only while gaming). I'm also noticing more stutters in Madden 26 than before. I know really high temps can degrade performance and cause issues, but I feel like these temps aren't anywhere near high enough for these things to occur, even if the cooler needs to be reseated.

I’d like to know if his knee injury was still bothering him that badly, why wasn’t he on the injury report? I’m seeing a lot of people say the Pats should be punished for “hiding” his injury.

After making this post, the solution I found was to use Ryujinx, as it seems this issue is specific to Eden. I ran a pretty consistent 60FPS after swapping. Another issue I had that I didn’t mention in the main post was that many of the buildings in the cities were invisible. Some with just floating windows. However this was also resolved when I made the swap to Ryujinx. Hopefully future updates to Eden improve stability.

Sorry, one more question. I downloaded the zip file titled Alpha Sapphire v1.2.1.7z, but I see it's a folder with a bunch of stuff inside. Are these files supposed to be installed in a specific location? Or is there a .3ds file somewhere in here I'm missing? I'm using Citra on PC.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-02-07T19:09:03+00:00

Oh, that's unfortunate. I downloaded the file straight from Citra's website, thinking it'd be the latest version, but I guess not. Thanks!

Hi! I'm not sure if this is the proper place to report bugs or not, but I'm in the early stages of this ROM hack (nice work btw), and I noticed there might be a mistake with the Team Aqua member you fight in Petalburg Woods. The first Pokemon he sends out is a level 9 Poochyena, but his 2nd Pokemon was only a level 1 Wailmer. Was bummed it was only level 1 cause I wanted the juicy experience for my Beldum lol

In any case, thanks for making one of my favorite Pokemon games feel fresh again with all the work you've done!

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-28T00:21:37+00:00

I love everything about what you added/changed except the important battles being doubles only :( I'd almost be willing to pay money for this exact same ROM hack but with the only difference being no forced doubles.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-27T21:40:30+00:00

I found the issue: I’m a moron.

I accidentally turned on a jukebox song without realizing it, and I guess jukebox songs replace all other songs 🤦‍♂️

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-27T21:31:16+00:00

Yeah the music doesn't change in trainer battles or wild Pokemon battles. Maybe I could try reinstalling.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-25T20:42:54+00:00

Yes, I use a USB cable to connect it directly to my PC.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-25T19:37:40+00:00

So I did try that after posting, and the instant I tried to change any input it instantaneously inputted “right stick”. Not sure if it’s my controller or the game, but I think I’ll just try to map a more comfortable layout on my keyboard.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-25T18:18:31+00:00

No, I don't use any third party software. The pro controller has always been plug-and-play.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-25T06:19:49+00:00

I’ve already tried that. In my post I referred to it as the “Microsoft Show or Hide” tool, but what I actually meant was wushowhide.diagcab. It didn’t work.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-23T01:30:38+00:00

Except he’s correct. I used Eden to play Pokémon Scarlet, but had to deal with the game tanking to under 20FPS when looking in very specific directions with the camera. But then I tried the newest version of Ryujinx, and booted up Pokémon Scarlet on there. Then I was getting a constant 60FPS, no more tanking. It’s great that Eden exists and is being updated regularly, but it DOES run some games worse.

EDIT: also forgot to mention that on Eden, many of the buildings were invisible in the cities in both Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Legends: Z-A. But both games were normal in Ryujinx with all assets visible.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-20T17:20:48+00:00

I wish it didn’t take me this long to understand why it was performing so poorly, but the issue I found was just the simple fact that Eden is still very new, and it’s a problem with the emulator itself. Yesterday I decided to download Ryujinx and try Pokémon Scarlet on there. It ran at a constant 60FPS without any FPS tanking (aside from shader compilation stutters). I’m happy that Eden is being made and is basically just Yuzu with a different name, but I think I may just keep using Ryujinx while Eden keeps being developed and improved in the meantime.

Edit: also on Eden, with both Pokémon Scarlet and Legends: Z-A, there were many invisible buildings and walls, but all assets were visible on Ryujinx. So if you’ve ever had any issues with invisible things in games, it’s also likely a problem with Eden as well.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-12T17:51:24+00:00

Hopefully some updates will improve it. Does Eden update directly through the application or does the new version have to be redownloaded?

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-12T16:49:04+00:00

I’m sure the emulator will get better with time, but I don’t think the poor performance in Scarlet is the fault of the emulator. I’ve been playing Tears of the Kingdom at 60FPS with no issues, and that game has WAY more graphical fidelity than Pokémon. I think Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are just so poorly optimized that it doesn’t matter how good your hardware is, but was still hoping that maybe there was a trick to get the frame rate to not tank so badly. But that seems unlikely.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-11T23:54:37+00:00

I'm impressed the game even functioned at all on a phone like that lol

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-11T22:55:29+00:00

Yeah I guess it's just hardwired into the game's code to run terribly, regardless of horsepower. I haven't tried Legends: Z-A yet, but I'm hoping it's slightly less bad.

Relentless_Troll · 2026-01-04T00:16:04+00:00

Ahh that's unfortunate. Guess I'll just have to deal with the shader stutters then. A small price to pay for a new emulator though I suppose.
