Paper Mario: The Origami King 60 FPS mod (2)

Mod that changes target framerate to 60 FPS. Made for yuzu by theboy181, I have ported it to hardware.
Changed handheld resolution from 1152x648/1024x576 to 960x540/854x480 based on info from 1080p mod made by M&M for yuzu.

Both original mods can be found here:
https://github.com/yuzuMods/yuzuMods/tree/master/mods/paper-mario-the-origami-king

Recommended OC settings:

Code:

handheld_charging_cpu=1785handheld_charging_gpu=768handheld_charging_mem=1600

Only to use in handheld mode.

Game without enough GPU power drops to 30 FPS and slows down twice.

Known issues:
- Prerendered videos have issues with vsync synchronization, so frames are jumping.
- Menu is double speed
- Perfect Jumps and Hammer time windows are halved (or just animation time is halved, while time window is untouched)

It works only with version 1.0.0

Copy folder exefs_patches to sdcard folder

atmosphere

or

reinx

or

sxos

And restart Switch.

Edit: I have uploaded wrong IPS. If you had crash, download mod again.

Updates:

21.07.2020: fixed text speed in dialogues - thx to @Kirby567fan

Here you can also download mod removing sharpening filter. It was made by M&M for yuzu, I have ported it to IPS.

It makes image cleaner.

Only for 1.0.0

Can you make a 1280x720 patch for handheld mode and can the sharpening filter be reduced or can it only be toggled? The sharpening in this game is definitely too aggressive, but it could use a little sharpening as the image quality is very soft.

The sharpening filter can probably be adjusted, I just don't know where to adjust it. I can probably look into it at some point.

That's quite a hit on resolution, i think i'd be great to have one that enables 720p/1080p and deals with the sharpening

Hey I found a bug while using 60fps mod. In Fire Vellumental Cave I wasn't able to run faster than the falling birds in the final path and I lost a lot of mushrooms. I deleted mod and I made it the first time. So be careful in Fire Vellumental Cave and disable mod.

Thnx you very much for this, I actually used your files and modified then. Took me a little of time because I had no idea how to invert ips patch files. But I ended doing a IPS without the resolution reduction and also a 60/30 fps cheat file ( for me this work better because in some areas where the game bug or slowdown appears we can change it to regular fps on the go).

Any chance of a patch to speed up text, without changing anything else? 5 mins into the game and it's already too annoying to handle Paper Mario: The Origami King 60 FPS mod (34)

Look in 60 FPS patch. One line is responsible for text speed in dialogues. Delete everything else and you will have 2x speed text in 30 fps.

Thanks, I tried each patch from the IPS in turn and didn't find the right one, maybe the effect wasn't obvious enough, at least while talking to the trees.

I noticed when you talk to someone (eg. a tree) for a second time, so they repeat themselves, pressing a button makes the text stop appearing gradually and all come at once. It would be awesome if someone found a patch to turn that on for all dialogue the first time round.

Eh, enjoying the game so far, but like with most RPGs, I don't like being taken out of the main gameplay to deal with annoying battle systems. Will see how I get on.

Thanks for the mod.

Unfortunately, it breaks the game quite a bit. It happened 3 times so far.

In overlook tower when you're waiting for a ladder to come down while it's raining missiles, the ladder never comes down. It rains indefinitely

In chestnut valley, you're supposed to outmaneuver a goomba with a chestnut, but it's way too fast and therefore impossible.

Same thing in water vellumental, the blue crab is too fast to hit the POW.

Each time I removed the ips file temporarily to pass the area.

FAQs

Does Paper Mario: The Origami King run at 60fps? ›

I honest;y was hoping it meant things were going to be harder to execute. I'm surprised people were expecting 60fps to begin with when the first trailer dropped. It was very clear the modern rendering techniques and lighting model were present from Origami King and Color Splash - both 30fps games.

How many FPS is Paper Mario? ›

As for frame rate, it appears to be 30fps - so it could take some time to adjust to if you played the original on GameCube.

Is Paper Mario Origami King as good as Thousand Year Door? ›

The Origami King Needs To Do Better

With a lot of better features including its story, battle, and gameplay, Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door is a winner. As a remake, it improves the already great aspects of TTYD making it one of the best titles in the Paper Mario Franchise.

Did Paper Mario Origami King sell well? ›

Paper Mario: The Origami King sold 3.47 million copies, u think the Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake will surpass Origami King sales? considering there's more hype surrounding the TTYD remake than there was with Origami King, on top of Nintendo heavily marketing the game more than they did with Origami King.

What is the best boss in Paper Mario Origami King? ›

2 King Olly (Best)

Can you get Luigi in Paper Mario? ›

What is the point of no return Paper Mario Origami King? ›

The soon-to-be-released Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake doesn't run at 60 frames per second like the original GameCube release, but it is likely due to the developer's choice to prioritize other things over frame rate and performance.
