I found some issues in that log that need resolving:

Press Winkey + R, type dxdiag and press enter, on the windows that shows up look for the field Processor to find the processor generation, it may support OGL 3.3.

Is there any way I could fix that?

As i said above (also from your log), your GPU may support OpenGL 3.3 which is citra’s minimum requirement, check your Processor name to find if that’s the case.

It doesn’t say anything about the OGL

It won’t say a specific OpenGL version, you’ll have to look up your computer specifications online to see if your gpu can support OGL 3.3

It doesn’t support it, but is there any way I can make it so that citra works either way?

No, unfortunately. The minimum is 3.3.

So the only way is to get a new computer. Great. Do you know about any emulator like this one maybe?

Citra is currently the only 3DS emulator capable of playing commercial games.

Here’s some issues I found with your log that might help.

  • The CPU Clock percentage is not 100%. You may experience unexpected game speed.

Use this older build for DQMJ3 for now: https://github.com/citra-emu/citra-nightly/releases/tag/nightly-1543. The regression has not been fixed yet. Set the CPU clock in Citra back to 100%.

Game is still laggy, when i have a good computer. Droping to 20% speed and 5 fps sometimes. I’ve download the citra 1543 and put the CPU clock to 100%. Anything i can do ?

Upload a new log please.

How much fps do you have outdoors and in battles? I haven’t played much so I can only test at the beginning of the game.

I can reach ~100fps no problem on Ryzen 9 3900X with GTX 1070 (unthrottled speed):

(I had no problems even on i7-3770K before I upgraded).

I have a laptop with similar specs as you but it’s i7-4710MQ with GeForce 840M, I could test with that later today. It is a bit worse than yours.
