Any reason you have texture dumping enabled? :stuck_out_tongue: you probably have thousands of images in the dump folder by now, delete by opening Citra then File -> Open Citra Folder then delete the folder(s) inside dump folder. You might need to reset the shader cache too just in case, delete shaders\opengl folder.

#4

Yeah, I can’t explain that one, but even after deleting the textures folder, turning off dumping, and deleting the open gl folder, I still get this freeze. I can still navigate the emulator itself so its not a crash, the emulation just freezes up. I should clarify as well that a few months ago I was playing this game on citra with nothing like this happening. It also appears to happen with Fire Emblem Awakening.

Ok, upload a new log. Maybe it will say something different now.

I played for about an hour on an older version, specifically 1543, and I didn’t encounter any issues. This is the 1544 log though.

#9

1544? Hm, the log says 1554, I assume it’s a typo? Is 1543 also a typo or not?

Is the CPU slider in Citra set to 100%? (System tab in Citra configuration).

#10

1544 was indeed a typo, but 1543 is the version I reverted to. However, the issue certainly appears to be the CPU slider, I must have increased it when I was messing around a few months ago, it was far too high. Currently had no problems after about 20 minutes of play and then leaving it idle for about a half hour more.
