Not sure this is on-topic enough and maybe a bit niche, but does anyone here have experience running Animal Crossing via Ryujinx on the Steamdeck?
Just tested it and it really seems to bring the Steamdeck to its limits. Fan is running a lot, I had a crash or two as well. Kinda worried about frying my Steamdeck with this.
I checked online for performance tweaks but they mostly say that Yuzu works a bit better with the right tweaks, Ryujinx is already setup the best way but has worse performance.
Nothing that can be done or does anyone have some experience here?
Edit: Steamdeck OLED version by the way.
I'm running it on a first gen Deck with absolutely no issues, and a steady framerate. Be sure to switch your graphics backend from Vulkan to OpenGL, that should fix the crashing.
The game doesn't take a lot out of the Deck, so I actually have the GPU downclocked to 800Mhz, and the refresh rate locked to 30FPS, since that's what AC runs at. I keep the CPU at normal clock because it makes the game load faster, but you can also downclock that if you don't mind the load times.
Here’s a screenshot for proof, so you know I’m not making it up.
I used to have Yuzu, but reformatted my Deck after the DMCA, and I don't wanna bother compiling Yuzu myself. So I switched to Ryujinx.
