    Exactly what I wanted, literally nothing I didn't...plus some bonus nuggets I didn't know I wanted until I knew I didn't know what I never knew I wanted to know. Cheers to you mate.
  • @donaldduck3692
    Thank you so much! Now I can play Red Dead Redemption for the first time after enjoying rdr2 last summer
  • @iTzTane
    Great video, the best step-by-step guide I've seen on this 🔥
  • @KoolTism
    Your the undisputed goat, I can finally play some civ rev!
  • @AmrishGamer
    Perfect :) works as shown, I also added X360 input for controller support 😊
  • @draco2xx
    for how much a shady cunning crook rockstar is if they remake rdr for next gen i would absolutely buy it at retail price cause it's that's good and im embarrassed to even say it. rdr needs a remake for next gen including pc, its such a shame cause it will sell like hot cakes

    I still seem to have some screen tear with this setup but it's otherwise running very smooth. It's fairly minor and still totally playable though. I've tried different combinations of vsync on/off in the config file and nvidia, if anyone has any luck eliminating screen tear completely then please let me know! Edit: FIXED! In the main Xenia config file- d3d12_allow_variable_refresh_rate_and_tearing = false Now it really is buttery smooth Very helpful video, much appreciated!

    thanks bro you came in clutch wit this.

    For some reason it doesn't work for me. I tried both versions of the red dead patches, and both displayed a text saying "Failed to launch title, check xenia.log for technical details". My PC doesn't have problems launching the emulator and shouldn't have. I also noticed that at 6:14 there's two folders called cache and content which weren't there before. I don't know what am i supposed to do.
  • @mafiansczech
    How did you get there folders Cache and content you made that up or something because it's not there in the video and where did you get the red dead redemption game if you only have it in a notebook sorry if it sounded a bit gross, I've watched about 30 videos with Xenia and I really don't know what to do
  • I’ve got goty but can’t get undead nightmare to work I don’t have the option to pick it in the main menu

    Thanks for the tutorial - game works great now. Except for some reasons main character keeps holding his revolver from the very beginning ... and every action cause shooting. Really, really weird... no other games or emulators cause this. I might to try and set up keyboard+mouse controls instead later. I've missed my chance to play RDR when I had my old X360, but was forced to sell it and never returned to playing on consoles. edit - fixed it by picking option to switch LB with LT and vice versa - RB with RT. Now it's time for an adventure I've been waiting for a decade!
  • @Juszu
    it doesnt let me open the red dead redemption goty file or all the others and when I try opening it it says how do you want to open this file? Microsoft store and shit idk
  • @DanielSlva
    Very well done tutorial! Thank you very much! I was trying to play this game on RPCS3 but the performance there is terrible, I was getting below 30 FPS, 20 FPS average, and now I can run it at above 60! Thank you so much!
