Hidden boost fps option for 360 games #1

Open d0x360 opened 1 year ago

d0x360 commented 1 year ago

I would test this myself instead of asking but my Xbox accidentally had carpet shampooer water dumped in when my wife stumbled with the water container... A sad evening.

Anyways for example fable 2 and 3 don't show as allowing fps boost in the series s/x dash, it only shows HDR.

If you boot into the games and open the 360 dash menu and then go to the last page on the right in some games you find a performance option but in order to enable it you need to quit the game, disable the auto HDR, reload the game, push menu+start to open the blades and go back to enable performance mode which causes the game to need to be loaded again but when it comes back... 60 magical fps.

Not every game has this performance option hidden over there but now I check everything just in case and everyone I've told about it had no idea it was there and why would they, there really isn't any reason to ever even look at that section... Except there is.

Happy new year!

I remember doing this for Forza Horizon. Unfortunately this does not unlock 60fps for Fable 2 :(

It did for me. The only fable I couldn't get 60 in was the first... I wonder if game support might depend on dash revision? I'm in the most frequent update ring of the preview program because I've been a member from day 1 and do the quests. There are like 15 different rings with different stage alpha builds afaik.
