Essential improvements

TSFix

Guide here.

According to the TSFix post, TSFix does 8 things:

  • Fixes Namco's bad framerate limiter
  • Correctly matches rendering to the selected resolution (rather than 720p upscaled)
  • Integrates Durante's character outline enhancement
  • Makes it possible to use ReShade
  • Prevents crashing every 15 minutes on laptops with touchscreens
  • Fixes hitching on menu screens and long load times
  • Adds Multisample Anti-Aliasing
  • Removes blur caused by one of Namco's patches

There are also 2 extra things it does unmentioned in the post:

  • Allows fullscreen borderless window mode
  • Adds a PSN Trophy sound (which can be replaced with any .wav file) on achievement unlock
