Hi guys...
I'm having problems with the new Nemu 0.8... When i load a rom, sometimes the program crashes.. other times the rom loads perfectly (but at a slower speed than nemu 0.7) but when I try to play in fullscreen, the software displays a message saying that I must get Direct X 8.0 or greater... but I have directx 9.0 !!!
Then the emulator closes...
Does anybody have a clue on what's going on here ?
Do I need to go back and get DirectX 8.0?
Thanks for the help !

Specs: Pentium III 800mhz
Diamond Viper II 32mb
128mb RAM

Reinstall DX 9 or upgrade to 9.0a.

I had the same problem and I got around it by using Jabo's Direct3D plugin from the Project64 install instead. Seems to work better than the default plugin supplied with Nemu64.

Oh, and some games that don't work on Nemu64 actually seem to work on Project64. So its best to alternate between them.

Hope that helps.

Are you sure your drivers are up-to-date?

It's not DirectX, because even when I have DirectX 9.0a
installed, with *any* attempt to switch to full screen, I *always* receive the above error message too. :(

LaC needs to check this problem out. :unsure:

This is also with my GeForce 2 MX200 32MB video card.

I noticed I had the same problem on my win2k rig. I solved the problem by editing the refresh rate setting in config.ini. I changed RefreshRate=60 to RefreshRate=85 (the refresh rate I normally use). It works like a charm now.
