SH4 on Steam Deck

[millnate]

Running it with FOTRSU and it runs buttery smooth for a little while and then gets really choppy. I have to quit and restart. Anyone else?

I'm still struggling to find out which folder to put the FOTRSU mod into. Can you help?

The instructions were a little confusing for me as well. What I did was unzip the .7z file, rune JSGME to create the “Mods” folder, then place the unzipped FOTRSU folder into the mods folder.

Hint, if you open Mods, then FOTRSU and see the “Data” folder, you’re good to go.

Or at least that’s how I did it. I just uninstalled everything and will try again because of the performance issues. Not sure what their cause was whether it was improper installation, bad saving techniques or trying the 4GB patch (I’m told it’s not required on Linux).

Thanks so much - I'll give it my best shot. :)

Sure. Let me know how it goes and what the performance is like. Like my first post said… buttery smooth for a while then horrible frame rates that don’t go away (or at least I reload before they go away)

You’re on the deck too?

I did. After reading some comments by more experienced Linux users, I don’t think you need to run that or the 4gb patch though-for Linux specifically.

Not sure I haven’t played vanilla yet.
