This is a patch to resolve the frame drops problems of Overlord 2. The way is to turn off the vsync but I try also to increase a bit the framerate.
To do so:
1. You need a RGH modded Xbox 360 (actually, I haven't tried on a retail Xbox 360 with this game installed. Perhaps with software like Horizon it should be possibile insert the modded xex, but I don't suggest it because with unlocked framerate the GPU temperature rises)
2. Take the defaul.xex in your Overlord 2 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 for these locations (CTRL+G):

First way ("39600003", perhaps gains some frames but more tearing)
38E2C8 (8238b2c8 in absolute values) and change 81 7f 35 1c to 39 60 00 03

Second way ("Post if", less tearing effect)
38E308 (8238b308 in absolute values ) and change 81 5f 2e 54 to 39 60 00 00

NOTE: if you don't find it, be sure you have selected "hexadecimal values" in the research window and you don't have a title updated (TU) game or another region game (ex. PAL/NTSC or Media ID). In that case try to search for these values. The strings to change are the first:

81 7f 35 1c 2b 0b 00 00 41 9a 00 34 2b 0b 00 01 41 9a 00 2c 2b 0b 00 02 41 9a 00 1c 39 6b ff fc 39 40 00 03 31 6b ff ff

81 5f 2e 54 55 6b 40 2e 80 9f 00 30 55 4a 4e 7e 81 3f 00 38 7d 4b 5b 78 7f 04 48 40 7d 7e eb 78 40 99 00 10 7f e3 fb 78

5. Save the file as you prefer (eg. Overlord2_39600003.xex and Overlord2_Postif.xex)
6. Copy this file in your 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.
