Hi everyone,

I wanted to share a little project I have been working on. It is a personal fork of Ryujinx that I call The Beast Roofer Edition. I originally built it just for myself, mainly to fix a crash that stopped large HD/4K texture packs from loading (the big Zelda BOTW and TOTK 4K packs in particular). I have been running it as my daily driver for a few weeks now on my own machine, so it has been solid for me, and I figured I would put it out there in case anyone else wants to try it.

What it adds:

- A fix for the crash with large ASTC texture packs, so big HD/4K packs actually load.

- A per game VRR frame cap (Off / 30 / 60 / 120) for G-Sync and FreeSync displays.

- A built in auto updater served from my own server, plus a cleaner update prompt at startup.

I never really announced the v1.1.4 release, so this covers both v1.1.4 and the newer v1.1.5. A few of the smaller tweaks (like the faster texture loading) are experimental and were tuned for my own machine, so they may not make a difference for everyone.

It is fully MIT licensed and built on the great work of gdkchan and the Ryubing team, with credit and a link back in the readme. Emulator only, of course. No games, no keys, no firmware, and I do not condone piracy in any way. You bring your own content, legally dumped from hardware you own.

Thanks for reading, and thanks to everyone who keeps this scene alive.

Hi everyone,

I ran into a bug where loading an HD texture pack (the Breath of the Wild 4K pack, in my case) crashed Ryujinx shortly after the game started. I tracked it down: some packs ship 2D array textures with a bad "block depth" value (gobBlocksInZ), which made the emulator treat them as 3D and overflow a 32-bit size calculation — instant crash.

I made a small fix (about 6 lines) and put it in a fork.

What it does:

- HD texture packs load without crashing.

- Works alongside the NX Optimizer mod, so you get high FPS *and* the pack at the same time.

Important: this is the emulator only. You must bring your own game, firmware, keys and texture pack — nothing from Nintendo is included.

It's fully open source, so you can read the change or build it yourself (the fix is a single commit). There's also a ready-to-run Windows build in the Releases section (extract the zip, run Ryujinx.exe, no install).

It's my first contribution like this, so feedback is very welcome.
