Support NeoGAF

I like breaking games.

That ATB level.

 

[Dreamwriter]

Forgive me, I've been busy and not following the thread so I'd like to ask if XIII supports resolutions higher than 1280x720? What about over 30 FPS? Thanks.

If serious, no support for any resolution other than 1280x720, but solid 60fps as long as you can keep your GPU from going to sleep (30fps during cutscenes)

That ATB level.

The fuck, did you use commands for that?

 

[Skyzard]

Yup. I would imagine that a better result could be found (for SGSSAA), but this took me two seconds. Bits take loads of testing. I think 8x supersampling + 32x CSAA worked too, but it was kinda blurry.

Thank you again.

One last thing - for SGSSAA you disable transparency multisampling right? But not for normal super sampling?

But SGSSAA NEEDS the bits?

 

[Hellraider]

If by "full screen" you mean running it at 1280x768, that's not 720p, so no, it's not possible. Not until some people on this board finish hacking it to work...

By fullscreen I meant anything that didnt have me looking at my desktop on the background. Black bars or anything included.

[Frumix]

What is UP with this translation?
Did they have to make simplest lines sound pretentious as hell?

HAX!

 

[artsi]

Just some basic memory editing, the game crashed when the gauge went over 10 or something though, lol.

Boom!

Deleted JP cutscenes, freed up 20GB of space.

You need to be more clear about what you are talking about. Are you choosing "full screen" in the launcher? Is your screen resolution 1280x720?

I'm probably going to try Japanese audio with English subs. At least I won't HEAR the horrible dialogue, just read it.

 

[2San]

I've heard switching the power management mode to prefer maximum performance helped some people. Isn't working for me though. I had it set to that from the beginning and still am getting dips.

Yeah same problem from what I see with CPU-Z its the CPU downclocking itself as well.

 

[Serandur]

-Locked @ 720p
-Cappped @ 60fps, some people say it can drop in battle
-Cutscenes worse than the ones from the ps3 version.



Probably because in windowed mode it's an external menu, not an in-game one.

Say what?

That's a shame, 2560x1440 monitor here. Blech.

 

[ViviOggi]

I actually like that it is so easy to quit the game. But the exit prompt should show up in fullscreen as well, it's just weird how it isn't right now.

They could just not disable Alt+F4 for the program, instant exit upon pressing Esc is utterly absurd behavior in 2014.

 

[blackMamba1187]

Word. Gonna get on that myself.

 

[Levyne]

I really like how Dark Souls 2 properly closes with Alt f4. I like that implementation of force quitting.

 

[kick51]

well, i'm out for now. 30fps battles is killing me. (yes to all the recommended fixes, nothing is working)

I've always considered the localization for this game to be really poor.

 

[Dreamwriter]

Say what?

The cutscenes are the 720p versions most likely from the Xbox 360 build, rather than the 1080p versions the PS3 had. They probably chose this because as it is it's a 60GB download, because the game includes two versions of every cutscene, one English one Japanese. At 1080p with no other changes, it'd probably be a 100GB download.

 

[PfantzyPantz]

I'm thinking of doing the same for English cutscenes, but won't we have to redownload it all if the game updates?

 

[Levyne]

This you could just prevent in the windows control panel, right? I had this issue but just setting the general power options to performance has fixed my cpu-z reading in the past.

 

[legacyzero]

Gimme dat GeDoSaTo 4K magic Durante. I already hate this game, but I wanna give it a fair chance again. Not gonna do that at 720p though.

Thanks for doing what devs sometimes dont.

 

[KojiKnight]

Whoo finally done downloading and now I have a solid 4 hours to play before work and... oh yeah, decryption time... whee!

Dunno if that's true either, since one language in the PC version is a good 10GB larger than the 360 version.

 

[copelandmaster]

Thank you again.

But SGSSAA NEEDS the bits?

I think this covers everything. Here's a slightly newer guide Durante made (for DS2 specifically), just in case.

 

[Mihos]

Has anyone tried it with Shield Tablet or portable? I might do a play through while I watch football or something.

Besides the opening ones, the PS3 videos were 720p... also weren't the 360 ones sub-720p?

We don't yet have confirmation if these videos are from the 360 version, we only know that both versions use Bink for compression. We do know because of that that they are not the PS3 versions.

 

[Toth]

I've always considered the localization for this game to be really poor.

Unfortunately I have to agree. A shame, considering the awesome translation from 12. Did the same company do the two translations btw?

 

[Kazdane]

Pre-rendered cutscenes seemed fine to me. I've upped everything I could in my NVIDIA control panel, and even despite the 720p, the game looks superb (especially in 60fps, so smooth).

Few screens (this is with 32x CSAA AA, 8x Transparecy supersampling, 16x AF).

 

[Hikami]

Had to switch back to English.
Game doesn't feel right for me without Troy Baker.

 

[diaspora]

Who knows.

 

[K.Jack]

Man I wish Bioware used Bink videos that looked this good, for the Mass Effect series.

 

[Toth]

Incredible screenshots.

Weird, it feels pretty alright without him over here, the only thing i will thank SE for.

 

[Rainy]

The team that translated the FF13 series definitely had a thesaurus on hand.

 

[~Kinggi~]

this might actually work, someone should try it.

 

[Kagari]

Sadly, no. Matsuno got Alex O. Smith for 12. SE did 13 all in-house with people making calls who really don't get English that well.

 

[orochi91]

Will it be possible to substitute fan translations over the localized subtitles?

Sadly, no. Matsuno got Alex O. Smith for 12. SE did 13 all in-house with people making calls who really don't get English that well.

This explain everything D':

 

[-GOUKI-]

Anyone experiencing a weird lag with the 360 controller? My character refuses to run sometimes. Also has someone figured out a way to get rid of the black bars on AMD cards?

 

[Dreamwriter]

Dunno if that's true either, since one language in the PC version is a good 10GB larger than the 360 version.

Didn't the PS3 version also have uncompressed sound? If so that could account for the larger language versions if this version is using that.

 

[Durante]

Someone should start working on high-res font/Hud textures.

 

[PhillipCostigan]

Has anyone got a good list of upgrades to force via Nvidia control panel for the best results?

Specs:

i5 3570k @ 4.2GHz
16GB RAM
Nvidia GTX 670

Would like to maintain 60 fps.

Just a list of options to turn up would be nice.

 

[kick51]

my general power setting is high performance, all power managment crap disabled.

60fps in field, 30fps battles

 

[InfiniteNine]

Well when you release with texture dumping I'll see what I can do.

 

[diaspora]

Oh f-

Someone tell me the typeface and I can take a crack at it.

 

[2San]

Yeah, it works. Only some minor framedrops with transitions now (which is fine).

 

[Gipsy Danger]

Here are my specs.

i5 2500k OC'd to 4.0GHz
GTX 980
8GB RAM

Battles are dropping down to 18fps. Like wtf.
