Details

Game can be set above 30 FPS with plugin alone, but because of dynamic resolution target set to 32-32.8 ms we need to tweak it. Also we block adaptive GPU frequency for anything above 30 FPS. There is also one setting com_adaptiveTickMaxHz that must be tweaked otherwise setting anything above 30 FPS results in wrong game speed.

How to find offsets

We need to use disassembler in this case. I will be using IDA.

We need to find in View->Open Subviews->Names:

rs_force460
rs_raiseThreshold
rs_dropThreshold
com_adaptiveTickMaxHz

They are not strings, but labeled offsets. After finding their offsets, for

rs_force460
com_adaptiveTickMaxHz

We need to add to offset 0x30. They are stored as int32.

• rs_force460 disables dynamic GPU frquency while forcing 460 MHz in handheld mode. By default it's 0
• com_adaptiveTickMaxHz is setting how much FPS can be considered when adjusting game speed. By default it's 30.

We should set rs_force460 to 1 so there won't be a constant battle between game and sys-clk affecting performance + com_adaptiveTickMaxHz to 60 for anything above 30 FPS.

For

rs_raiseThreshold
rs_dropThreshold

We need to add to offset 0x34. They are stored as float.

• rs_dropMilliseconds is a result of equation 0.984 * (30/FPS). So by default it's 0.984 which is equivalent to 32.8ms. If frame took more than 32.8 ms to render, it drops resolution.
• rs_raiseMilliseconds is a result of equation 0.96 * (30/FPS). So by default it's 0.96 which is equivalent to 32ms. If frame took less than 32 ms to render, it raises resolution.

So for 30 FPS it will look like this:

30FPS:
  # rs_force460 (default)
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994DF0]
    value_type: int32
    value: 0
  # rs_raiseThreshold (default)
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994F14]
    value_type: float
    value: 0.96
  # rs_dropThreshold (default)
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994E84]
    value_type: float
    value: 0.984
  # com_adaptiveTickMaxHz (default)
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x85F74E0]
    value_type: int32
    value: 30

For 45 FPS like this:

45FPS:
  # rs_force460
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994DF0]
    value_type: int32
    value: 1
  # rs_raiseThreshold
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994F14]
    value_type: float
    value: 0.64
  # rs_dropThreshold
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x7994E84]
    value_type: float
    value: 0.656
  # com_adaptiveTickMaxHz
  -
    type: write
    address: [MAIN, 0x85F74E0]
    value_type: int32
    value: 60
