And Wii version? :(
The Wii Version of Sonic Unleashed is totally different from the PS3 and Xbox 360, The Graphics are downscaled and even Levels are Different, So there is no point in comparing it (on Dolphin) with the other two emulators
@@KeyvanDN thanks for answering :3
wii version is shit😡
@@osvetnicixd5556 Sonic Unleashed on Wii is not a bad game actually, for a person who played the Next-Gen version the entire time it's actually something new. But I can't like it as much as the Next-Gen version for obvious reasons.
if u want to play it try using pcsx2 its for ps2 but it also has sonic unleshed wii version just slightly diffrent with the graphics
Come on sega please give us this game on steam.
NOW NOW PARADO NO BALAO ELA CO POPOZAO E O POPOZAO NO CHAO
it will happen sooner or later
I want a remake for ps5
Yeah ....dream on morons , SEGA will never ever ganna make unleashed pc .
Pls no
Pls no pls no pls no
Thanks, That was informative. I subbed, good luck!
Good work, I hope you reach monetization soon, you deserve it.
Thanks a lot bro it means this means a lot to me
Only patch I found to actually improve performance was removing dynamic lighting.
My man, this video is poorly titled, I casually watched out of curiosity but realizad this video was a very helpful guide to setting this game to the PS3 emulator. You should consider changing the title as a setup guide to the game on said emulator.
holy **** thx king
edit i just have the driver wake up delay that i can't change, if you have any idea
Well honestly I following your tutorial and yeah it's runs great but sometimes it's suddenly freeze the game what should I do?
Good Job!! 0:13
I know this is months late, but there are some things overlooked in this video.
1.) F5 fixes visual glitches usually in Xenia. Not to mention, you NEED to play on Vulkan to avoid frequent crashes too. Annoying but you can work with it.
2.) For some reason, Xenia makes the game look darker? Sometimes more than others. There's an "HDR fix mod" you can get, but unfortunately the mod creator hasn't finished it and sometimes it makes the game too bright. Once finished, ideally it might make it look more vibrant and accurate though. (Apparently this doesn't seem too hard to tweak yourself- it's just changing some values in some config files associated with each area?)
3.) Xenia might have the Werehog's fur bug out in certain lighting, at least based on my experience. You need to change a setting in Xenia, to "render_target_path_vulkan = "fsi"." Needs slightly more performance supposedly but it fixes the visual glitches. Adds to the instability point, but once again shows Xenia *does* work if you know how to get it working.
That's the bulk of it I think? Otherwise, while it's definitely more unstable, Xenia also unfortunately is a LOT easier to actually run, due to RPCS3's harsh requirements. As much as I hate to recommend dealing with Xenia and its annoying problems, feeling good to play is pretty important, so I think it's gonna be the go-to for most people.
I've tried playing Sonic Unleashed on the Steam deck which is an 8 core device and the game freezes during gameplay can that be fixed.
I honestly couldn't get the game to work had no clue what I was doing wrong more specifically the menu music audio was stuttering.
What about freeze crashing fix?
when i try to go on destruction mode the game just pauses and i cant play
Sonic Unleashed works fine fore me on RPCS3 but i do have a 13th gen CPU so that might be the reason why it works better for me, or they have improved the emulator with new updates?
would you believe me if I said I made a new save file on xenia and reached egg dragoon?
Is there a place to download dlc's for xbox 360/xenia?
Damn lol I'm thinking of playing sonic unleashed on pc but after I finish the game on the actual console I'm on holoska night
RPCS3 has many more graphical options, use Lossless Frame Generation makes this game run like a dream. 100+ FPS
So basically we just need sega to make a PC version.
Sega would rather die and have another questionable release than port their old games
@@MischieviousJirachi These CEOs or whoever make these decisions do not play video games themselves. They say they do, but they have so much pride and make such bad decisions it's amazing.
the mod is no longer necessary with Xenia Canary ;P
sure, it still crashes, but nowhere near as often
Is the game completable?
@@denzelnalenz6252 hub worlds that have npcs in them freeze after around 20 seconds so prob not
Wait can't you play Sonic Unleashed on PC with PSNow?
If only unleashed had an actual pc port we wouldn't have to go through this bs just think about the possibilities
From a ryzen 7 5800X3D and a 6900xt 32gb of ram and ssd it doesn't run so well, but compared to xenia it's ten time better because of what you said in your video. Didn't know there is a patch for xenia, it is worth it? And in my advanced tab i can't change the "driver wake up delay" maybe if i change that i can have good 60 fps
Xenia is a Complete failure due to its unfixed crashing issues no matter how hard I tried to fix
Xenia version might be the best emulator because it's needing something like a GTX1050TI 4GB for example
And using canary and pressing F5 I can fully play it
For Xenia press F5 to reset shadow maps, it should work now.
still doesnt work on other games
I have played sonic unleashed on rpcs3 with these settings for about 8 hours and I didn't have even one single crash :) sure the FPS is not consistent but it's absolutely worth it
i love you dude
There's the ps2 version aswell for those with machines that cant handle ps3 and xbox 360 emulation
xenia just needs you to run in admin and use vulkan and it's great.
I think ima just buy a copy of the game for 360, never got to play this one as a kid and I dont think id be able to handle framerate issues for 3d sonic games 😓
Sonic unleashed keeps crashing on Xenia so I play it on RPCS3
It def would be worth it for xenia. Rpcs3 is much more demanding AND you still need to instal patches for it
Tried it on Xenia. The stage patches are ugly and remove so much fun from the game by adding jank routes
@@brisket222 ikr jungle joyride loses its fun just because of the beginning for me
@@numb4102 yeah, unleashed project redux is much better
I’m using the recent Xenia canary with a fresh file and it’s running swell with hardly any crashes. Most of my crashes only happen in the hub worlds which doesn’t matter much imo.
Sonic unleahsed on xenia is better with graphics and performance but for me when they fix the "graphics device lost" it will be perfect
Xenia is fixed, and that "1st mission glitch," just press f5
What?!?! how?!?! I tried everything patches and all... on RPCS3 to get it running, but still 10-15 fps with big (input)lag. I'm the proud owner of a R5 3600 with an RX 590, which are both running at 100% of the resource to even get to the mentioned fps, maybe Nvidia cards are just better or I'm I missing something? any help is greatly appreciated!!
It's probably because of R5 3600, Its not that good for playing demanding rpcs3 games.
Doesn't really matter how good your graphics card is, CPU is more important for rpcs3 games.
And your CPU has 6 cores which is low because the more cores you have (with single threaded performance) the better the results . It's not strange that you got about 10-15 fps.
So basically to wrap it up, Its because of you cpu
@@KeyvanDN Thanks for the tip, already had a plan to upgrading later this year
@@KeyvanDN I have a Intel i9 10900k and it still get drops. Guess I'll have to wait for them to update the emulator. I had to switch the render to open GL for some reason Vulcan was causing it to crash. Either I need to upgrade until to the 12th generation series or just get the new AMD CPUs
@@KeyvanDN i guess I could forget playing this game with my Ryzen 1600 😆 (it was a great cpu in 2017!)
At least my old motherboard got a bios update to support the Ryzen 5000 series
@@wargames-mb2gu strange, sonic unleshed works fine for me and im using RPCS3, i have a i9-13900K 13th generation , i do get some lag but it is pretty rare for me and once the shaders are done loading in each level i don't get any lag spikes and if i get fps drops they are barely noticeable even when there are a lot of enemies on the screen and no crashes , they might have fixed it in an update or at lest improved it or it migh be my CPU or perphaps a mix of of both.
The game crashes for me with Rpcs3
Rpcs3 is bugged to hell keep crashing in first mision of sonic wolf
I didn't have that issue
Try switching the render to opengl when I had it on Vulcan it was causing it to crash it might be able to help but you're still probably going to get frame drops it just depends how powerful your CPU is
@jeez you have to use the same emulator build that he's using in his video I didn't realize it at first it's 0.0.22 build. Once I did that the game was working and not crashing anymore
At this point, I just hooked up my ps3 to my monitor and play with a ps4 controller and trick my head that I'm playing on pc
for me sonic unleashed worked well for me in xenia canary version and I finished the game from start to finish without issues
What specs? And did you use DX12?
@@davidav1dhe probably used Vulkan
@@IlIlllIIllllllllllIII yes
@@davidav1d gpu: gtx 970 cpu : intel core i7 4790
Why PS3 so different for PS2 version?
Because of the hardware capabilities of the two consoles
@@KeyvanDN it was less so that and moreso that the team was focusing on the game for PS3 and 360, while SEGA still wanted it on the Wii so they outsourced part of its development to Dimps
the 7th gen version if given the time and resources could run perfectly fine on a Wii (which is why Colors runs fine on a Wii)
because PS2 use the downgrade version that was made for Wii, Wii had shitty GPU.
rcps3 + lossless scaling= more than 60 fps even with drops
rpcs3 is a great emulator but unfortunately I can't enjoy it because I have a low-end processor like the ryzen 5 3600 only rich people can enjoy it rpcs3
I use the emulator with a Ryzen 5 3600 & RTX 3060 ti you can probably play some games too if you have a somewhat strong GPU as well
@@MrVideo-lt5qy nah I have a 2060 super and also sonic unleashed runs very bad in the case of rpcs3 the GPU gives little or almost no performance it is a full processor emulator
There's still a ton of optimizations to be done with PS3 and 360 emulation. Only recently has it even become viable. I'm sure in the next 3 years there will be huge optimizations that will make it possible to run on low or mid-range systems.
@@MrVideo-lt5qy dude i have the exact same specs as you. can you tell me the FPS you got and what settings you used?
@@aziz390 I use the default settings and it runs fine on most stages there’s some frame drops but it’s definitely playable
Dolphin is what I use sure it is not as good as the other versions but it is more reliable then xenia and rpcs3.
better gpu = xenia, better cpu = rpcs3. those emulators need only better cpu/gpu
RPCS3 is better for low end PCs like mine while Xenia don’t even bother
Xenia is better overall. It’s probably your pc. You need a decent graphics card . So yes Xenia is better
I would say till now, the best way to play sonic unleashed is to play the sonic unleashed project mod (and while adding unleashed redux mod on it) for sonic generations
Yes, the downside is that you are only playing day time stages, no werehog and no hub world or story, but in all honesty I would take a downgrade like this so I can play the daytime stages in all their glory on 60 fps with zero issues over crashes or below 60 fps
No,definitely not , You can't say that the best way to play the game is one where you don't even have one of the main mechanics, it would just be an alternative if you're only interested in playing the day levels
I'm playing though unleashed myself using xenia and everything is fine
edit: i'm not using 100% save file I haven't even beaten the game and im not using xenia unleashed i'm just using other mods
RPCS3 is more demanding than Xenia tbh
100th comment xD
They dont release it to buy on pc and then they go "nOOOO WHY U PIRATE NOW AM SO MAD"
lol SEGA is the company that cares least about "piracy". Just look at the huge amount of hack roms and fangames of their franchises
YOUR MAD!!!
Actually xenia can run the game now without a custom xenia
