Best Settings For...

Hey guys, I was playing some of my roms, and i got alot of them running all right, but some of them have a few minor annoyances...

Perfect Dark: Runs fine on Jabo's Direct3D7 until i get the camera spy out on Level 2...The whole game goes too dark to see anything...Also, on the menues that switch left/right it leaves a 'trail' (hope that's the right description)

Star Wars Shadows of the Empire: The game runs fine (a little fast) for the first level in the snow speeder, and then on the 2nd level when it goes into 3rd person, i get a lot of flickering (i don't see any of this until lvl 2)...I use Jabo's Direct3D6 for this one....(Same thing happens with Body Harvest)

Also, has anyone gotten Star Wars Rogue Squadron or Star Wars Battle for Naboo to work, or do any plugin combinations work?

Thx in advance

Unsupported games, afaik no.
Perfect dark, if I'm correct, only Glide64 and Rice's have this problem fixed.
At least I know Glide64 has it fixed, but I'm kinda sure rice has it fixed too.

bummer...They're all great games that i enjoyed mostly when i was younger...I spent the most time on shadows of the empire...That's mostly why i do n64 emulation: it makes me want to go back to a simpler time i guess (im 16 now...)

Shadows of the Empire works if you play with the D3D Clear Mode. I think the game requires different settings at different points, but since you can change it realtime it shouldn't be hard to figure out what it needs.

Of course, other video plugins may work better.

i haven't had much luck with any of rice's, surprisingly, but i havent changed much of the settings, but going by default jabos d3d6 works so far... I'll try that allnatural, thx for the tip...

I'm also haveing problems with Perfect Dark not drawing anyvideo at all through Glide64 ME .7... I may have a setting i need to enable, but havent had the time to mess around with it too much... a little advice on this subject

EDIT: Perfect Dark is not the only game that draws no video, if that helps at all...

thx

As for shadows of the empire, go to Rom settings and put the D3D clear mode to "only per frame" Doesn't fix the speed issue, but makes the game a little easier to look at. :)

well, i had it running best on Jabo's D3D6, but there is no rom settings like in d3d7...i've been using d3d6 to play cause it runs the game better... What are your settings for d3d7?

Don't use the D3D7 plugin. It's less advanced, and except in certain cases (with some older hardware) it offers no benefits.

You were told twice already, change the D3D clear mode.
