This is Gears of War 3 with the framerate unlocked that reaches 60 fps on a real Xbox 360.
This game is so well programmed that unlocking the framerate gives it the smoothness it deserves.
I've almost used all the settings reported in the Xenia patch.
To get the unlocked framerate, it could seem difficult but it's not, you have to:
1. You need a RGH modded Xbox 360
2. Take the defaul.xex in your Gears of War 3 folder on the xbox 360, copy and paste it in your PC to uncompress/decrypt it with xextool (follow my tutorial for the decrypting/uncompressing part, here https://youtu.be/W26KD-mntEY)
3. Open the decrypted/uncompressed file in HxD
4. Search (CTRL+forG) for the location AFA6BF (82af66bf in absolute values, eg. with Ghidra) and change the 02 in 00 (in the string 39 60 00 02 48 00 00)
5. Search for the location 5419B0 (8253d9b0 in absolute values) and change the C0 23 04 C8 in 60 00 00 00
6. To disable the Motion Blur, search for the location 434640 (82430640 in absolute values) and change the 81 6A 00 38 in 39600000
7. Another step to disable the Motion Blur, search for 7A6BCC (827a2bcc in absolute values) and change the 81 6A 00 80 in 39600000
8. If you want to test the 16x anisotropic filter, search for 96D614 (82969614) and change the 80 BE 03 44 in 38a00010
NOTE: if you don't find tese values, be sure you have selected "hexadecimal values" in the research window or you have a title updated game or another region game (ex. PAL/NTSC). In that case, write a comment and I will help you
9. Save the modded file as you wish (ex. GOW3_unlocked.xex)
6. Copy this file in your GOW3 folder on the Xbox 360, then start it by file manager or rename in default.xex (after renamed the original one) to start it from the cover in your dashboard
If you wish, let me know what you think about it.
Enjoy.
