RDB WIP-download improved files & help test PJ64 game compatibility please!

[Smiff]

(that stands for Rom DataBase Work In Progress).
OK some of you may remember this from years ago but i'll run through it again:

How this works:
I post an RDB.
We ask you to play games! All games, but paying particular attention to those listed below, because they've recently had settings changed.
We listen to feedback, make more changes, I post another RDB.
We all test some more...
etc.
When we're happy it gets released as an official update :)
(although already it's likely to be much more accurate than the one included in v1.6, so we'd recommend the beta now for all users!)

Who should give feedback please:
Only people with some PJ64 experience should really participate in this (we don't want issues relating to bad ROMs, your system, other plugins or anything else that's distracting). thanks in advance, i try to credit fixes to the finder!
Please make sure you are using the latest version of these files before you post! Some people are reporting errors that were fixed long ago. Thanks

How to test:
Use only Project64 v1.6, Jabo D3D8 1.6, Dsound 1.6, Dinput 1.6, included 1.6 RSP.
default settings.
If an option in the emulator config fixes something, it's not considered an issue. However, if this instruction isn't in the GameFAQ, please report so we can add it!
See where the browser info and your experience don't match.
Post in this thread with as much detail as possible please.
Screenshots and states may be useful.
Make sure you can recreate the issue please.

*I think the average PC is now fast enough to turn this off in the RDB.
(i've known for a long time that ABL Off was smoother in the Zeldas, but loses perhaps 20% speed).
If your machine is not fast enough to maintain 60Vi/s, probably a good idea to turn it back on.
Some chance this affects stability, as not as many people have been playing them with ABL Off.

(1.6 release)
------
//EOF


RDB will now be posted to main site here (http://www.pj64.net/main/download/func,select/id,7/).

Rename Project64.rdb in your v1.6 install folder (to e.g. Project64-v16release.rdb), then extract this one to that folder, overwriting the GameFAQ. You can then, if you need to, compare between the original rdb and the new one by swapping the files around. If you get confused, see Help > About INI files to check which version you're using!

Settings will always be applied but refresh the ROM Browser (shortcut F5 or File menu) after changing RDB to see changes to Status and Notes.

Please note the new GameFAQ will open to an error page (not found) in PJ64 1.6 - this is a fault with the app, sorry, it's cosmetic only. don't report please.

[Allnatural]

The self-modifying code for Zelda OoT should be set to Change Memory and Cache. I tried digging up the thread where it was discussed most recently (after the release of 1.6), but it seems to have vanished into the ether.

There's a crash when exiting the Lost Woods, but only when you first walk through the left doorway (where the chap is playing the pipe) and then backtrack to the exit. It's an oddball occurance, and many will never see it, but it's there nonetheless. :)

[Smiff]

thanks Allnatural, we need to discuss this
it was originally on Check Memory & Cache, then when Check Mem Advance got implemented Zil told me to put Zelda OoT on it (iirc).
are you sure the rest of Zelda OoT is stable on Change Memory & Cache?
that's very significant if it is :)

[Allnatural]

are you sure the rest of Zelda OoT is stable on Change Memory & Cache?
heh, no. I think I may have played through the Deku Tree dungeon without problems, but beyond that is anyone's guess.

I think enough people have reported the crash though to at least warrant a note in the GameFAQ. :)

[PsyMan]

Quest 64 (U) / Holy Magic Century (E) still has problems with both of Jabo's video plugins (the main character's cape has wrong color). Tested with a GeForce 2 MX (don't know about other cards).

[Smiff]

Quest 64 (U) / Holy Magic Century (E) still has problems with both of Jabo's video plugins (the main character's cape has wrong color). Tested with a GeForce 2 MX (don't know about other cards).

aha, this is a good time to say, if you're going to do a post like that, which is good, please attach a pic of what you see, and ideally a pic of what you should see (googling the game often works).

I see it's using pixel shaders 1.1+ on the cape.. which you don't have on a GF2MX.. so it's hardware issue sorry.
you can't select d3d device any more in d3d8 plug, i need to find out if there;s an easy way to get reference rasterize going now so people can confirm themselves if issue is system related.

[olivieryuyu]

GT64 Champ/City Tour GP : core ?

use glide64 with CF2 and it's fully playable for me. it's a plugin issue i think ;)

[ScottJC]

Just to point out:

Star Wars - Shadows... 5 [mixed] changed var settings (CF2, Only per frame) for better performace. still not great. (E) flickers worse on Only per frame. needs testing

That's not done for better performance, its done to remove the flicker from the (U) rom and it pretty much does for me, as for (E) I never tested it. I think I changed CF because the game was running at an incorrect speed (too fast).


Quest 64 (U) / Holy Magic Century (E) still has problems with both of Jabo's video plugins (the main character's cape has wrong color). Tested with a GeForce 2 MX (don't know about other cards).I'd suggest you buy a cheap radeon 9200 (it has pixel shader support) because that Geforce 2mx will always be a bottle neck for your system.

[Clements]

For Quest 64, Forcing Alpha blending gets rid of the Pink around the text and other stuff to make it look like it should, but the characters' heads and other stuff become transparent with the option enabled. No setting appears to fix this issue.

Misc RDB issues:

-Doom 64 (all regions) says (see GameFAQ) but there is no entry.

-F-ZERO X is misnamed (according to GoodN64 2.02a it's all caps now)

-Hey you, Pikachu (all variants) ought to say [input] (see GameFAQ) since the entry is there explaining the issue.

-Kirby 64, health bar is a core issue AFAIK, works in Mupen64, so should have that as a core note, not a video note.

-Mario Story (J) entry should be in line with Paper Mario i.e. [video] (see GameFAQ)

-Mischief Makers (all regions) says "(see GameFAQ" without a close of the bracket.

-Nightmare Creatures (U) should probably have a (see GameFAQ) as the core note, or at least have it added.

-Ogre Battle 64 should have a "(see GameFAQ)" for video since there is an entry.

-War Gods should have a "(see GameFAQ)" for core.

-Wipeout 64 should have a "(see GameFAQ)" for video since there is an entry.

Misc GameFAQ issues:

Hey you, Pikachu! > Hey you, Pikachu! / Pikachu Genki Dechu

Paper Mario > Paper Mario / Mario Story

Super Mario 64 is not in alphabetical order.

Thats all for now.

heh, no. I think I may have played through the Deku Tree dungeon without problems, but beyond that is anyone's guess.

I think enough people have reported the crash though to at least warrant a note in the GameFAQ. :)
Allnatural, i remember you when i did my first posts here some years ago:)

and i remember your advice about Zelda OoT + Change Memory & Cache :)
(i was having those crashes in some particular places like Lost Woods and Kakariko's market, for example)

i played it loud, but i did not finish the game with PJ1.5, (up to Fire temple without problems) because i "move" to 1964, hehe


i recommend the Self -mod. code method in "Change Memory & Cache"

[Lillymon]

banjo kazooie - need to use legacy pipeline to display parts correctly(intro has black parts everywhere, some parts ingame are too bright, how has nobody else noticed this?)Looks fine here. I don't remember it being any brighter on my N64. The black bits in the intro are causes by framebuffer effects. Enable 'Copy framebuffer to RDRAM' and they'll be fine, but it'll be a lot slower. My system (AMD Athlon XP 2100+, ATI Radeon 8500LE) gets a full 60FPS with framebuffer effects on, but only about 45FPS with them on.


banjo tooie - also needs legacy pipeline to display parts correctly(banjos shadow, his colors are too bright, etc.)Also seems fine for me. Default settings get me a shadow, legacy pipeline makes no difference. Tryed updating your video card drivers recently?


tetrisphere - has minor glitches, very playable. also sounds sometimes makes horrible loud screeching noise while it loads the level.What would these 'glitches' be? The game seems fine to me. Also, 'horrible screeching noise'? Never heard any.

Guess I should mention that some games that had various slowdowns in the previous version are fine now using Jabo's D3D8 video plugin. The list of these games includes: Lylat Wars/Star Fox 64, Cruis'n USA and Mischief Makers (and probably others too).
Be aware that the slowdowns still occur when using Jabo's D3D6 video plugin.

Things are slowing down now as most things are done i.e. most games get to be working about as well as they can in this version of pj... the help files are an almost never-ending job though ;)
Looking for more feedback really, what we've had is good, just need more!
I want to give at least a week or two without major changes until considering safe for public release...

[ggab]

Smiff, could i ask you if you have merged/added some or all changes done by Nekokabu & MASA (uoRDB v4.03a)?
(in special the not Good Names related changes...)

indeed, thanks for your work!

[Smiff]

i've picked through some of Nekokabu's and added some things we could verify, mainly japanese games where he is clearly right and we didn't try very hard :p I don't change things for the sake of changing them, we have to be pretty sure it's an improvement.
all the changes are in the log in the first post. it's good that both of us have detailed logs so you can check through yourself if you want...

about the Good Names - we use the current available version of GoodN64 (2.02a), with the exception of the multilanguage tags (Mn), some of which are in ahead of the next version, someone in the team has contacts with Cowering. so there shouldn't be too many suprises, for example, i *haven't* changed Legend of Zelda to The Legend of Zelda or anything like that - people should find the rdb matches up with their set quite well!

[PsyMan]

Some RDB errors (on the notes for the default plugins):
"Cruis'n USA [video] slow in places" <-- It isn't slow with the D3D8 video plugin.

"Shadowgate 64 [video] slow" <-- It isn't slow with the D3D8 video plugin. In fact it may seem slow during gameplay but it's the game's normal speed. It has some very minor slowdowns in the begining of the "movies" and when you turn the first page of a book.

"Star Fox 64/Lylat Wars [video] (see GameFAQ)" <-- The GameFAQ entry does not report any "problems" for this game (actually the problems were fixed in v1.6).

The lack of Pixel shaders on some video cards results in various problems on some games (Quest 64, Zelda, etc.). Also, some games are slow with the D3D6 video plugin but fast with the D3D8 video plugin. Maybe a note about these should be added in the "Common Questions & Answers" section. What do you think smiff?

[Smiff]

well, of course it depends on your system! when i say "slow", i often mean the video plugin uses abnormally high amounts of CPU, so the emulator as a whole *could* slow down - i'd rather be safe and say something might be a problem, so people like you have a good surprise (probably you dont 'see the slowdown' because the counter stays above 60fps), than say it's all ok (or not say anything) and have other people complain.. of course if there really is no issue the comment should go, i will check those again.

it's a good point though, i will think about clarifying this somehow, without getting too wordy..

[Nekokabu]

Please change it to these setting;)

and Quotation from GameFAQ(Hey You, Pikachu!, Pokemon Stadium etc):
The only way to get voice support in this game is to use real N64 hardware accessories (a genuine N64 microphone and a genuine N64 controller) on a genuine Adaptoid using the Adaptoid input plugin provided. Note that this will theoretically work, but has not been tested.
I think that it is not true.
adaptoid support Mempack and RumblePack *ONLY*.
TransferPack, VRU, BioSensor etc... are not supported.

[Smiff]

Nekokabu thanks, i will check over those, a few questions please:

Castlevania, why do you set 8MB RDRAM? i know game supports exp. pak, but how does it help? (i couldn't see any benefit to graphics).

F-Zero, why do you enable TLB? we don't think the game uses it.
Smash Bros, same
Zelda, same.
where do these games use TLB please? would love to know!

[Nekokabu]

Castlevania, why do you set 8MB RDRAM? i know game supports exp. pak, but how does it help? (i couldn't see any benefit to graphics).
Castlevania - Legacy of Darkness supported Expansion Pack.
because I change it.



F-Zero, why do you enable TLB? we don't think the game uses it.
Smash Bros, same
Zelda, same.
where do these games use TLB please? would love to know!
please check state file with hex editor.
and search "TLB", if game uses it, it found.
(*state file is using little endian format, you need to convert little endian -> bigendian.. but it is difficult:( )

[PsyMan]

Castlevania, why do you set 8MB RDRAM? i know game supports exp. pak, but how does it help? (i couldn't see any benefit to graphics).
I use the expansion pack too for this game. That's because if you're using Jabo's D3D6 video plugin and set the memory to 4MB there will be some framebuffer related issues on some menus; if you set the memory to 8MB and make the game use the expansion pack then the errors are gone. Weird...

PS: This works only with Legacy of Darkness (the original Castlevania does not support the expansion pack).

[Tiger1]

I just played Kirby 64 (E), it says core issues in the database, I played through the first 2 missions and didn't see any problems. In the GameFAQ it says that the energy bar is missing, but I can see it. If you don't believe me just look in the attachment.

[Smiff]

right ok, Castlevania2 is going onto 8MB - res detection actually seems to work in both reses, and on both regions.

edit: btw, this demonstrates nicely why you don't mess with things without much care: now gent has to redo all the cheats to work with the exp pak on. being such a nice guy he's agreed to do it but the changeover could cause problems.

edit2: for anyone following this wondering "wtf, of COURSE i want the exp. pak if the game support it!", no that's not obviously right because (a) the graphics are HLEd and if the game *only* raises the resolution, there is zero benefit from using the extra 4MB, you just raise state sizes hence waste space and possibly slow emulation, (b) it often complicates plugin res detection, because now users can choose two different resolutions when they start the game, there's more to go wrong. hope this explains things!

hmm right, may be there is some other issues. At least there is sound :).

Unsupported would be better i think so because Need Video plugin with a ? is not accurate as the ucode is not suported for sure: Factor 5 have developed their own gfx engine (in fact for each games they had developed they had created a gfx engine : those guys was the best (and the more crazy) programmers on the N64 !!!)

;)

just start a new game. You'll get this issue just before going in game. For E and U version.

I guess the most interesting thing about this one is that i seem to have solved some random hanging in Banjo-Tooie (which Gent said couldn't be done ;)). not certain, but i've had it running demo loops on 3 PCs for hours over the last couple of days. of course you'll all test it better :) there should be little change in performance either.

[Antroid]

I'm new here and all so i can't know everything that was already mentioned here...

DK64 U crashes after the dolby surround logo, but i think this is only my problem... In DK64 J the song and the subtitles were not synced good...

And the main problem i know is with particles. They are often drawn after the polygons or sometching, i mean they can bee seen through the walls. I remember that bug in EWJ3d, rayman 2 and Disney's Donald Duck... And also about the problem of rayman 2 called "lum colour". I guess that most particles are not drawn properly, they keep only their shape but have the colour of the fog (if there's no fog at the moment, they're drawn nicely). This problem is in Rayman 2 and Donald duck at least (may be in more games) so i guess it should be fixed somehow (if it can be fixed of course). Thanks :alien2:

[PsyMan]

Just to clarify some things... I don't have access to "slow" CPUs these days (only my laptop that can be underclocked) so I cannot perform accurate tests that have to do with the CPU requirements of the emulator. This means that my previous reports had to do with the video plugins and the way they act.

In particular when I was reffering to Cruis'n USA (which indeed needs a quite fast CPU to run fullspeed) I meant that it had slowdowns even with a fast CPU when using the D3D6 video plugin (the VIs dropped to 30-40 most of the time) but it didn't when using the D3D8 video plugin (constant 60 VIs).

About Shadowgate... After some more tests it seems that the "movies" eat a lot of CPU power and RAM. When running the game after running other applications major slowdowns may occur during these "movies" (probably due to heavy page file usage since the HD activity is constant). Better to bypass these movies when your CPU is not fast enough or you don't have at least 512MBs of RAM.


The particular tests were made on my laptop (Specs: 1.73GHz Pentium M CPU, ATI X600 video card, 512MB RAM). The previous tests were made on my Desktop (see my sig for its specs).
I appologize for any previous inaccurate info Smiff...

right: the bug occured only at the beginning of the game. At the first boss the problem is solved.

[RadeonUser]

right: the bug occured only at the beginning of the game. At the first boss the problem is solved.

Nope. This happens later on in the game as well. The status bar comes and goes quite often during gameplay. This is a core problem since the plugins show it perfect on Mupen64. From my testing no core setting helps so that it is why it is keeping its status.

video error: direct64 is able to show it correctly: it's a huge fb effect.

Mickey's Speedway USA: the lights at the beginning of the race doesn't work correctly. Impossible to know if it's a core or a plugin issue (every plugins ... )

[Smiff]

Turok - Dinosaur Hunter: textures, how often/bad are these messed up? have you got pics? thanks clements you're very helpful.

[Clements]

They are messed up in the intro and the first level, but I haven't tried other levels, but I assume it's throughout (there is a cheat to access all levels: NTHGTHDGDCRTDTRK). Is this a multitexturing issue? These shots should shot the difference.

#1: Jabo's D3D6 1.5.2 /Jabo's D3D8 1.6 with Use Legacy Pixel Pipeline enabled (textures work fine, exactly like real N64)
#2: Jabo's D3D8 1.6 (textures darker, less detailed, more obvious that is repeated)

IMPORTANT EDIT: I find that 'Use Legacy Pixel Pipeline' fixes the issue with D3D8 - The game now runs flawlessly. :D

I guess there should be a note in the GameFAQ about this since it requires an advanced setting change.

in my 6800GT the textures are fine, and i don't have to enable "Use Legacy Pixel Pipeline", so it's your hardware fault there

[Clements]

More likely a driver problem.

[Smiff]

turok1 - i get same as clements on GF3 and Radeon9550.

beta8 added, very minor changes, GameFAQ is getting big though :/

we've got two games that need thorough testing now:
Zelda OoT/MQ
F-Zero (or F-ZERO as it now insists on shouting).

[Clements]

I played through Ocarina of Time with PJ64 1.6 + Jabo's D3D8 from the Forest Temple right to Ganon's Castle and experienced no errors of note, other than the brief white background to Link's picture you get when you change equipment which is not present in other plugins and the real N64 and Gamecube. It would be great if someone can verify this to be a true bug, probably framebuffer related (is not fixed with the Copy framebuffer to RDRAM option). I also have a native state with all heart pieces, equipment and zero deaths without any cheats used if that's useful :P

I haven't tried Master Quest, but I know that it had issues with PJ64 1.5 that required cheats to be activated in order to finish the game. This will need a bit of testing.

[dutchMasta]

For me, I had a problem with Change memory&cache (I mentioned it before), in forest temple. The game froze when I was un/twisting (forgot which) the corridor, I shot the arrow, and the camera moves through the corridor, and back, then it freezes. Changing it to default fixes this (I haven't tried others). But I had the lost woods prob, so I don't think either default or change mem&cache are perfect, but these rarely happen so it doesn't bother me much at all.

EDIT: Oh I forgot, another freeze, using default (I think), after completing the shadow temple, and getting warped back the graveyard, walking into kakariko village freezes the game. I changed back to change mem&cache (I think), and it was ok. it was a bitch though, since shadow temple is prob the only one which has a boss door damn deep inside the dungeon.

[Jesterhead]

I don´t know if its the right place to post, but it seems that Duke Nukem - Zero Hour needs "Send Audio lists to Audio Plugin" for Sound. Maybe notice this as RSP prob. in gamefaq after confirmation :-)

-Edit-

There seem to be more Probs with Duke, on the first there are 2 places where the game hangs (sound still working and running), only graphics hangs, not sure but i remember that i read somewhere that 1st level is unplayable, not sure if it was in an older PJ64 Version.

The Places are the the exit to Hangar 2 and a place who could be a shooting test.

-Edit 2- :blush:

Could it be that the Intro where the military girl asks Duke for Help is cutting off?
She says something about Aliens and help us and next scene is Duke talking with himself in the past.
(lol, nice scene where Duke shoots a sceleton with a shotgun and blood appers :P )

Smiff: I tried to unravel the cause of the 'Not Found' issue when you load up the GameFAQ, and now I understand what's happening. I made a workaround for the issue if anyone is interested. The cause is that PJ64 points it to a file that no longer exists but used to exist here:

html/8 FAQ/games/_index.htm

I made a workaround by duplicating welcome.htm to resemble the "missing file" and changed the links so the stylesheet and link worked. I'll attach the modified chm and source. The filesize is almost the same. I hope that it is perfect so I that I can go to bed worry free! There is less pressure for a rush release to fix this minor bug now. :P

[Smiff]

clements we know lol, thanks but i put that in originally as a workaround (as it is in v1.6), now Witten has patched the source (the app source)... so it works in my copy :p i may put the workaround back in.
the problem is you do these little things to fix little things, you forget, and the little things never get fixed :p
i have some other plans to make it even l33ter but they are top secret ehe ;)

[Clements]

Hehe. I'm glad that issue was easily fixed and not forgotten about! :P

[Jelta]

- Doubutsu no Mori (J) has a messed up Pause menu (see shot) which appears not to be fixed with Copy Framebuffer to RDRAM. So unless this is fixable:

? -> [video] error(s):pause menu

backgrounds is used Self-rendered textures.
(blacksquare is unfixable ... )

pause menu delay issue like Zelda OoT. if enable Copy framebuffer to RDRAM then avoid it.

[Smiff]

well, very little feedback now, i take it no-one's found any problems?
i've made a few more changes but wanted to do more before posting another...

[Speedfreak69]

Hi Guys
Just searched the forum for this problem but could'nt find it
In Pilotwings 64 (E) (M3) [!] when you take photos in the hang glider stage then go to look at them the photos quickly flash up then then screen goes black.
This problem does'nt happen in Pilotwings 64 (U) [!]

[ScottJC]

well, very little feedback now, i take it no-one's found any problems?
i've made a few more changes but wanted to do more before posting another...
You want a new issue eh? :P

Here's one, Mickeys Speedway USA, if you use the 1.5.2 plugin, the in-game graphics are totally screwy, I don't remember that with 1.5 or 1.5.1:

Edit: Actually it is happening in 1.5 for me as well, may be driver related. I'll update my drivers.

[olivieryuyu]

Mickeys Speedway USA : there is a problem of with starting lights: they doesn't light up ....

impossible to know if it's a core or a video plugin issue :(

[RadeonUser]

Uhm why are you using the D3D6 plugin anyway? From your computer specs you have an X800 thats more than capable of handling all the effects Jabo uses.

The only issue we have on our list for mickey's speedway is the go lights not working. It doesnt seem like anyone has these working.

On a note for everyone else: There will be no work done on the D3D6 plugin. It was dropped and is only provided for backwards compatability on older generation video cards. Optimally the D3D8 plugin should work fine for those cards as well (you may have to Use legacy pixel pipeline for some odd quirks that arent auto detected though)

[ScottJC]

Just wanted to see if the old plugin handled it better.

Edit: Plus, newer isn't always better in all situations, take Banjo-Tooie for instance, with 1.5.2 the game never crashes - with 1.6 it crashes within 20 minutes.

Then there's Turok, the game runs better with the older plugin as well.

I am well aware that no work will be done on the older plugin, just something for the gamefaq if this turns out to be a common error, and there are people out there who cannot use the new plugin.

[GaimeGuy]

I notice that Legend of the Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon's audio is not only off, but it just doesn't sound right either. The music in game sounds nothing like what I remember of the game playing it on my N64, nor does it sound like the USF dumps or the OST which I have.

Anyone know of an audio codec which makes the game sound exactly the way it should?

This appears to be a conflict of some kind. Using Jabo's graphics and audio plugins sounds flawless - really nice. To check this for yourself, use this combination and do not allow the camera angle to change when testing this since...

Jabo's plugin does not support 'Faster loading Tiles' like Rice's plugin. I seem to recall that MN uses large textures that is slow to load in the normal way or something like that, so he added this option for it to be fullspeed, otherwise the game has the massive slowdowns. MN is only playable with Rice's plugin (and perhaps Glide64 using a real Voodoo).

As soon as you switch graphics plugins to Rice's Video the audio sounds nothing like it should even using the same audio plugin. Sounds terrible - like most of the tune and bass is removed, and some of the sound effects are gone. You were right about listening to the USF rip - the music is accurate. I actually own this game for real so I can confirm that.

This is a very weird issue. My guess is a conflict. For the time being, 1964 doesn't have this problem.

[GaimeGuy]

Thanks a lot.

Also, I forgot to mention this, but is there a way to lock a game at 30 FPS, not 60? A lot of N64 games (including Mystical Ninja) run a bit faster than they were meant to, since, well, they weren't supposed to run at 60 FPS. :P

wait, nm, I just synched the audio to the game.

[Smiff]

beta9 added.
another small collection of changes,
as usual see first block in changelog in first post in this thread.
you can now press "author's homepage" in pj about to visit this thread :)

[PsyMan]

I've just noticed some things about this release, here they are:

There were some problems regarding Mischief Makers that weren't added in this version; here's a more detailed description about them:
Mischief Makers (E) [!]:
- On level 3-10 where you have to take part in some events the last event (Mathfun) is unplayable because the text for the caclulations is missing. You can continue the game by selecting another event or by trying to guess the correct result.
- On level 4-1 there is a rock that chases you. This rock is invisible. You can continue the game by moving as fast as you can. The rock is visible with Jabo's video plugin v1.52
- On various underground levels there should be a black mask that covers most of the screen except from the middle. This mask is missing (this actually makes the game easier). The mask is somewhat emulated incorrectly with Jabo's video plugin v1.52
The above was tested on a GeForce 2 MX and a Mobility Radeon X600 using the default plugins. The problems cannot be fixed by changing any video plugin options.

The "Mickey's Speedway USA" entry in PJgameFAQ has wrong title (the title is : "Chrome Demo - Enhanced (PD ").

[RadeonUser]

On the Mischief Makers note it wasnt added because it hasnt been verified by us. Each report is investigated by us and if it holds truth it is added to the gamefaq, settings are changed, and/or suggestions are added.

We asked for state saves of the issues but nothing was provided for us. We simply cant devote the time to testing/playing through each issue that's brought up. I tried playing through that game but it simply gave me a headache trying to understand what to do. Everyone else was busy testing /adding / verifying other issues or dealing with real life.

At this point we are relying on each of you to help us improve PJ64 and it may sound bad but if our requests go unanswered the problem may be pushed into a lower priority in favor of spending more time on other games and demos that can be more easily dealt with.

[Techman]

I noticed two errors in Megaman 64 (U):

- You can't see the refractor piece in the cutscene when you start a new game with the lastest video plugin, but you can with 1.5.2. (This doesn't require a save state, does it? You can start new game right away.)
(EDIT: I just noticed that you need to enable Use legacy pixel pipeline to see it.)

- The game intro screen will have odd lines in it when you play on fullscreen with jabo's latest video plugin. (Again, doesn't happen with 1.5.2 for me and you won't need a save state to this one either, you see the intro right as you load the rom)

Sorry RadeonUser... It's not the easiest thing to upload stuff on a 56k connection (that's why I avoid attaching savestates and multyple screenshots). Since native saves are small enough it's easy for me to upload them so here's the save for the (E) version (every level accessible).
If you guys want me to upload anything else just ask it but don't overdo it please :P

Hi Guys
Just searched the forum for this problem but could'nt find it
In Pilotwings 64 (E) (M3) [!] when you take photos in the hang glider stage then go to look at them the photos quickly flash up then then screen goes black.
This problem does'nt happen in Pilotwings 64 (U) [!]

Thank you Speedfreak69. This is due to the Direct 3D Clear Mode issue.

This has been noted.

[Speedfreak69]

Hi Guys
Was just playing Mario Party 2 (U) [!] and in this mini game called Magnet Carta (2on2 game) it slows right down(i have attached a save state, sorry it is pretty big).

And also from Mario Party 2 a few pictures from a mini game called Totem Pole Pound.
At the start and at the end of the game there is black lines thru the background.

Another mini game called Lights Out (1on3 game) at the end of the game when they celebrate they are in front of the bar.

Mini game called BOB-OMB Barrage (1on3 game) the person in the boat you can see the whole ripple above the floor of the boat.

End of game during the credits when Bowser is introduced the whole screen flickers.

And another game Puzzle Bobble 64 (J) [!] when you load it up there is a few screens that have garbage on them and don't press start just watch thru the demos and after the demos a few screens have garbage on them or are messed up.

[xamenus]

Does the Zelda Subscreen Delay still occur in PJ64 v1.6? If so, you may want to address this issue in the GameFAQ.

[Miretank]

playing in 1.6 i took this pics.
the messed one with D3D8 1.6 jabo's video plugin.
the good one with 3D6 1.5.2.
this happens with other games, like Quake II, i'll try to send more pics.
my gfx: geforce4 mx 4000 64 mb

[Trotterwatch]

Try changing the D3D clear mode, that may well help it.

[Smiff]

MiretanK.O,
what game is that please?

[Miretank]

its ISS2000 (U), and the same happens to ISS98, but its worse, cause sometimes it hangs because it "can't load a word". and sorry, i thought i wrote the game name in the title :P later i will add more game pix.
and trotterwatch, i changed the D3D. the graphics did not get messed, but the field gets black; pausing the game, half gets grey and other half gets blue colors.
for me, Jabo's 1.5.2 looked more effective.

[Smiff]

ISS series looks ok to me in D3D8, maybe your graphics card.
no need to add more pics of same issue.
For ISS98 'failed to load word', try enabling TLB. can't remember why that was off.

[Sir Camehan]

To me, MiretanK.O, it looks like that your video card does not support pixel shaders of ANY kind. I would very strongly suggest that you upgrade your video card to one that supports pixel & vertex shaders if you want to have better graphics rendering.

This is probably why your screenshots show that wierd blending

[Miretank]

thanx sir camehan, yeah, my video card doesn't support a lot of effects (other lack for me is blend mode, i feel this in zelda), and while I don't have enough money to buy other card i'll be using plugins that suits better my limitations. and for the ones in the same situation of mine, try to use use different plugins to get better results.

[Sir Camehan]

I understand. I was having some real wierd rendering errors with my old video card (which was by coincedance, the exact model of your's, except it had more video RAM). I recommend using the plugin "gln64" for Legend of Zelda - Ocarina of Time. It should also work extremly well with other games, if you have a video card that doesn't support pixel shaders.

Also, Rice's latest plugin with the default OpenGL combiner should work wonders with your current video card. It worked extremly well with my old one, and by rights it should work on yours, too.

[Speedfreak69]

Ok here goes the list for Mario Party 3 (U) [!] and pictures are in the same order as list

Mini game Tidal Toss (1on3 game) Clouds messed up.

Mini game End of the Line (1on1 game) on the winners screen black lines going across the background.

Mini game Ridiculous Relay (1on3 game) lines can be seen in the water on the bottom screen.

Mini game Baby Bowser Bonkers (1on1 game) lines going thru the backrow of the holes.

Mini game Crowd Cover (1on1 game) graphics messed up of the drawing and 2 lines coming out of the circle in the middle toad.

Mini game Fowl Play (1on1 game) Clouds messed up.

Mini game Log Jam (2on2 game) background graphics messed up.

On item screen you can see lines coming out of the objects.

On the file select screen the copy and erase star are not correct.

Mini game Chipshot Challenge (4 player duel) the clouds shadows go all fuzzy when it zooms up to the flag.


Thats it now back to the game to find more bugs

Sorry for the new thread but i couldnt upload any more pics in the thread.

Mini game Pop Gun Pickoff (1on1 game) Blue crosshair sight is not correct (looks like it is only half a sight).

[Smiff]

Speedfreak69, is that jabo's v1.6 video? if so can you please post state saves of a few of those areas. have you listed your sys. specs somewhere?

beta9b upped, a few more corrections.
GameFAQ is now searchable, this adds about 40kb but is useful to us anyway.
a shout out to all the websites out there - please only store this file locally if you're going to update it every time! better to link here? while you're there, could you check your pj64 sections for old files - i hate to think what's happening to users applying really old (ini,rdb,cht,lng,chm) files to pj64 1.6... would make a big mess. simply, any files older than April 2005 probably need to go please.

[Speedfreak69]

Yep it is Jabo's Direct3D8 1.6 (all the default plugins) and i will post a save state later as i am at work

I edited my profile and filled in my computer specs but it is not showing up on the bottom of my message ???

anyway here are my specs

AMD XP 1800
Win 98
Radeon 9250 128M
Soundblaster Live
256M

can someone please give us a state for where this problem is (see pic)

It's the minigolf mode of Mario Golf which can be easily accessed when you start the game. When you turn the player the screen looks like that but when you hold still, those yellow walls get annoyingly in the way.

I think that was what you meant.

[Smiff]

thanks Techman

beta10 upped, sorry this one took a while.
usual block of updates in first post.
thanks Speedfreak69 and everyone else who's been giving screenshots etc.

still hoping for some more feedback on how stable Zelda OoT/MQ is on Change Memory. F-ZERO is done.

[maximius]

aha, this is a good time to say, if you're going to do a post like that, which is good, please attach a pic of what you see, and ideally a pic of what you should see (googling the game often works).

I see it's using pixel shaders 1.1+ on the cape.. which you don't have on a GF2MX.. so it's hardware issue sorry.
you can't select d3d device any more in d3d8 plug, i need to find out if there;s an easy way to get reference rasterize going now so people can confirm themselves if issue is system related.

Texture Filter CAUSES the pink edges for me.
Legacy Pixel Pipeline CAUSES the cape bug for me.

Just thought I should point this out, and maybe the Texture filter needs some work :alien2:

[Smiff]

Custom Robo,
again the big robot looks ok.
you sure you haven't got Force Alpha checked?

San Fran Rush 2049,
looks ok to me, this game is very hardware heavy, probably your system?

Conker,
Matrix mode looks fine to me, do you have to play for a while?

well right now i'm useing my 5700le

i'll pop in my 6600gt and see what it dose later

[Smiff]

zeeky, suggestion:
use lower resolution and compress a decent amount with JPG.

edit: i was talking about screenshots to post here.

[zeeky]

hmm

well my 5700le was running at stock(226/360)so i overclocked to to 480/460 and it still had probs(yes in 640/480)

i'll stick in my 6600gt and see how it dose

edit: ok i got my 6600gt in

i'll post results after i get the drivers in

edit2: ok i put the 6600gt in and it still has the same prob

so by high system requirement you mean a fx-55@3ghz and 2 6800ultras in sli?

edit#: oh ok i use 640x480 next time that ok?

About Conker, I didn't notice anything wrong either. The only glitch you can still see is the motion blur effect, e.g. when Conker wakes up the next morning. The "Copy FB to RDRAM" option didn't help anything.

[Speedfreak69]

[QUOTE=Smiff]Custom Robo,

you are correct.
for some reason ??? Force Alpha was checked (and i never touch anything in the advanced settings, that is strange)

I went through the games again that i tested in the last few days and edited my posts

[mathesar]

About Conker, I didn't notice anything wrong either. The only glitch you can still see is the motion blur effect, e.g. when Conker wakes up the next morning. The "Copy FB to RDRAM" option didn't help anything.

I also noticed when comparing Conker emulation to my actual N64 its also missing some 'halo' effects around lights ,for example in the screenshot below the big green light on the wall should have a halo / glow effect around it.

http://img32.echo.cx/img32/1395/conkermissinghalo8dc.jpg

[F-3582]

I didn't know that this was a light, I took it for some slime instead. But your screenshot really shows it. Can you post a screenie from the real N64?

[mathesar]

Had to use my digitalcam so its not the best shot ,but you can see what I mean:

http://img242.echo.cx/img242/3139/conkern645nz.jpg

[F-3582]

Yes, I see. Besides, Conker's shadow also seems to become darker the closer it is to him and the overall contrast matches the atmosphere much better (might be caused by your digicam shot). The game looks pretty nice on the original thing.

[mathesar]

Ya the shadow actualy looks much nicer on the real thing ,it animates very smoothly and is dark closer to him like in the pic , the shadow animation is kind of choppy / jerky in pj64 and also has a lower resolution look to it (blocky) - But I dont know of any other emulator that runs conker as well as PJ64.

[F-3582]

I'd say it is a gfx plugin issue (if you want to put it that way - the fact that something like this can be done is still amazing). 1964, the emu I mainly use, runs the game a little better, because turning the CF to 1 makes the game actually run smoother than on the N64 (some strange dynamic frame skip calculation in the game makes this possible :D ). Strangely PJ64 doesn't run the game that well.

P.S.: Those two bright lines on the top and on the bottom of that screenshot - are they caused by your TV?

[mathesar]

P.S.: Those two bright lines on the top and on the bottom of that screenshot - are they caused by your TV?

Yea for some reason my N64 displays with small black bars on top and bottom on my TV (cant see the black bars in the screenshot) its sort of like how a widescreen dvd movie would display but n64 has much smaller bars, so your seeing the extreme top & bottom of the n64 image wich you wouldnt normaly see ,the bright lines are a result of the black bars , its kind of wierd considering my other consoles dont do this (PS2/Xbox/Gamecube) but it never really bothered me...it might have something to do with it being an HDTV.

[Firon]

Conker actually has the same texture glitch that Turok has. Certain textures look far more repeated than they should be. It's fixed by turning the legacy pixel pipeline on, but I don't know what other kinds of bugs that brings.

[Techman]

I get crashes with Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time (V1.2) (U) in some rooms (for example the room in deku tree dungeon where you get by jumping from top of the tree through the web) The emulator + windows both crash I need to restard my computer manually. This happens only with the new RDB, not the one that comes with the emu. So, what has these RDB's changed in OoT?

[Speedfreak69]

Ganbare Goemon 2 - Deorudero Douchuuc Obake Tenkomori (J) [!] and Mystical Ninja 2 Starrimg Goemon (E) (M3) [!] during intro the speech is out of sync and on both sides of the background is missing and in the (E) version the intro slows down a bit and during the game you can see a white line (where the textures meet i think)

mind telling us how it should work? theres a green square spinning around inside a grey circle.. not sure how it should look.



Chou Kuukan Night Pro Yakyuu King 2 (J) when you load Project64 it doesnt detect the rom name in the game list

don't understand this sorry

[Speedfreak69]

mind telling us how it should work? theres a green square spinning around inside a grey circle.. not sure how it should look.


don't understand this sorry

ok bug1 South Park radar
in the first picture it is wrong the green bit doesnt take up the whole circle (you can see the background through it and is missing the little white pointer off it
in the second pic this is how it should look

bug 2
ok when you load up Project64 and it comes up with the list of games to choose from instead of coming up with Chou Kuukan Night Pro Yakyuu King 2 (J) it comes up with bad rom ? use GoodN64 to check it

Can anybody confirm if these are bugs please

In Aidyn Chronicles - The First Mage (E) [!] and (U) [!] in the first pic is the word ok supposed to look like that ??

in the 2nd and 3rd pics in the (U) version it has Licensed by Nintendo under the logo and in the (E) version it doesn't is this correct ??

[Smiff]

do not post anything related to other emus in this thread, please.
(except specifically where needed to show how something "should" be).

[Speedfreak69]

Edit: sorry, I was inattentive. [rsp] speech glitch.

[Speedfreak69]

Kakutou Denshou: F-Cup Maniax (J) [!] text problems throughout the game and during gameplay a glitch up the top and in the middle of the screen

Ken Griffey Jr's Slugfest (U) [!] at the very begining there is a black screen and then you hear Ken speak and then press start comes up on the screen (is there supposed to be a title screen ???) and the big TV screen is black
the second pic is correct

[F-3582]

Did you try that copy framebuffer to RDRAM option?

[Speedfreak69]

I only find the problems i dont fix'em :)

[F-3582]

No, that screen uses the current framebuffer as texture, similar to Mario Kart 64. It doesn't look like an issue to me.

[Speedfreak69]

what ya mean not an issue ??? the tv has a black screen and the bottom pic is not from the emulator it is from a real n64

Destruction Derby 64 (U) [!] and (E) [!] during the demo on the first track, glitches can be seen next to a building then a building disappears

Doraemon - Mittsu no Seireiseki (J) [!] all the text is missing during the intro and game and the cat should be all blue

Doraemon 2 - Hikari no Shinden (J) [!] title screen text is messed up and graphic glitches in objects menu

Extreme G (J) [!] and end (E) [!] and (U) [!] glitches through the intro and demo and game down the bottom of the screen and glitches on the options screen and title screen is nothing but a white screen

[F-3582]

what ya mean not an issue ??? the tv has a black screen and the bottom pic is not from the emulator it is from a real n64

Did you try that option I pointed at? If it will fix the screen, it is NOT an issue.

[Speedfreak69]

like i said i only find problems i dont fix them :)

[F-3582]

This is gonna repeat itself, but:

If a bug can be fixed by activating an option provided by the gfx plugin you use, it's not an issue. It would be similar to enabling the "Force Normal Blending" option and telling everyone that Super Mario 64 had missing textures.

[Smiff]

What F-3582 said (if an option fixes it it's not an issue) is basically right and a good rule of thumb (although sometimes, an option is needed where it "shouldn't" be, but that's up to us). so please check that nothing in the plugin fixes it before reporting. it's ok though, because it's still worth putting in the gamefaq.

[Speedfreak69]

I know what he is saying but I dont muck around with any settings (i am just here to help out with the RDB and other people can fiddle with the settings to see if it fixes the bugs

[F-3582]

...but it would be helpful, because you already have the game.

[Speedfreak69]

nope spend to much time looking for bugs havent got any more time to spare to finding fixes :whistling (Smiff is the bug fixer)

[F-3582]

OK, if you don't want to...

[Smiff]

guigui007 thanks yes they will go in at some point but we don't have confirmation that the new dumps are good?

those patches, how do i know they're right? they probably are, but putting in incorrect corrections could be even more confusing.. i'll hold off on these for now ok, will consider for RDB after next maybe.

beta11 upped. changelog in first post.
main change here is that all (?) the PD ROMs have been added. this is not my work, so thanks Gent, SGi and Radeonuser for that...
report any problems with PD status and notes aswell here now i guess.

[olivieryuyu]

nice work :)

hmm yeah you should say also: undhanled FB effects in menu for Beetle Adv racing (scrolling menu as a film between each screen of menu)

;)

[Speedfreak69]

in the GameFAQ it says the letter M is missing, the first letter from each option is missing not just the M

in Super Smash Bros (U) [!] and (E) (M3) [!] and (A) [!]and Nintendo All-Star! Dairantou Smash Brothers (J) [!] these bugs happen in all

In intro and gameplay and how to play black line near top of screen
In intro Donkey Kong goes thru the platform and in Starfox the wings of the small ship can be seen thru the big ship (can see it better with the intro running)
In intro and title screen glitchy line near top of screen
In the (J) version black lines in the background everywhere
In the options then screen adjust cannnot move the crosshair around

007 - The World is Not Enough (E) (M3) [!] and (U) [!]
during the demo one screen is not correct (save state just before it )
and the picture was take using the Glide plugin and it is not correct either

[F-3582]

About that first letter - I suppose it's a sprite priority problem.

[Speedfreak69]

In Quake 64 (E) [!] and (U) [!] when it says insert Rumble Pak it doesnt detect it

[Smiff]

In Quake 64 (E) [!] and (U) [!] when it says insert Rumble Pak it doesnt detect it

hmm seems to be detected fine, but i was using N-Rage's with raw and without raw, because i don't have FF drivers installed on here for jabo's...

[Speedfreak69]

Glover (E) (M3) [!] and (U) [!] the backgrounds are not correct (missing clouds ) and around the door frames you can see the rainbow effect (go up a bit close and its normal)

Hercules - The Legendary Journeys (E) [!] and (U) [!] at the begining when it says to insert the Rumble Pak and you put it on Use Rumble Pak it doesnt detect it

[Smiff]

you're using jabo's input plugin yes? you have rumble selected in that plugin? is rumble detected if you use n-rage's?

[Speedfreak69]

yep im using Jabo's (all the default plugins)(I dont use any other plugins as stated on the first page of this thread)

How to test:
Use only Project64 v1.6, Jabo D3D8 1.6, Dsound 1.6, Dinput 1.6, included 1.6 RSP.
default settings.

[Smiff]

yer but sometimes i ask you to use another plugin to confirm where problem is, please.

[Speedfreak69]

yep it detect with n-rage's (how do you turn the rumble on in Jabos just in case i am doing something wrong)is it just the memory pak ???

[Smiff]

ok: for rumble to appear in the drop down menu in jabo's you must have force feedback drivers installed, by design, so this is not actually what we'd call a bug (more a limitation).

[Speedfreak69]

ok then sounds good

[RattleMan]

Don't know if anyone's mentioned this yet, but I just was playing Bomberman 64, and I went to a boss (any Level 4 boss will do), and there is a complex blur effect used in these boss fights at the beginning, which is not emulated correctly; a bunch of corrupted multicolor lines replace it. The same happens in the game credits with zooming-out pictures (at least the one when you beat Black Fortress, I can't remember the one when you beat Rainbow Cloud).

Also, when I tried this on the U version, I set up a new file, and PJ64 couldn't even complete the opening FMV. It freezes right after the rays from Black Fortress fire on the running red bombermen. I don't know if this is a problem only for me, or what...

[Speedfreak69]

Cruis'n Exotica (U) [!] on the car select screen black box in the middle of the screen and during the intro with the car stats screen black box in middle of screen and on transmission select white box on screen

[F-3582]

Both Zelda games seem to have some glitches:

Zelda OoT: The adult princess Ruto (the Zora princess who works as a sage :D) doesn't fade in and out correctly: her body immediately disappears/materializes, only her head seems to fade out/in as supposed.

Also in the end credits where all the sages are standing in front of Death Mountain, the camera looks into the sky and you see some sort of zooming. The skybox, however gets smaller and smaller (might be intended) and eventually you'll see its black borders.

Zelda MoM: Shortly before a new day begins (when you hear the bells toll), the screen gets smaller and the borders get glitchy. However, as soon as the new day begins, it gets back to nomal.

I'll post some screenshots as soon as I find some time to do it.

P.S.: Try www.imageshack.us (http://www.imageshack.us) - it'll host every image you want.

[Smiff]

Zelda MM, we know about, sorry it wasn't in the GameFAQ for some reason, added

Zelda OoT, i think we'll need pics and states of those please, i haven't actually heard of those?

i think they just upgraded the forum so not all working atm?

[Speedfreak69]

Bomberman 64 - The Second Attack! (U) [!] at the begining of the intro when the bomb explodes the life bar goes all the way across the screen
In Battle mode when you choose your characters none of the characters can be seen down the bottom
on the stage select you cannnot see the stage and after the game has finished on the win screen you cannot see anything
In Tutorial 1 the pic of the joystick is messed up
On the title screen bomberman's little sidekick is supposed to be moving all over the screen but is missing

ECW Hardcore Revolution (E) [!] and (U) [!] bottom of the names and options are cut off

Flying Dragon (E) [!] and (U) [!] black lines going thru screens
glitches on menu and other screens and health bar during game not correct

GT 64 - Championship Edition (U) [!] and (E) (M3) [!] and City-Tour GP - Zennihon GT Senshuken (J) [!] as well as the map is glitched so is the pointer in the speedometer and the (J) version freezes up sometimes during gameplay

Gex 3 - Deep Cover Gecko (E) (M3) [!] and (U) [!] water is glitched throughout the intro and game and in the intro his chair is supposed to have red stripes but they dissapper most of the time

[zerdekx]

Seems to fix the problem with the messed up maps if you copy framebuffer to rd ram but with my pc (2Gh AMD, 720Mb RAM, GeForce 4 Ti) drops FPS to 12 and dlist usage goes up to 98%...

[RattleMan]

I figured out how to enable the complex blur effect, in response to my post:

"Don't know if anyone's mentioned this yet, but I just was playing Bomberman 64, and I went to a boss (any Level 4 boss will do), and there is a complex blur effect used in these boss fights at the beginning, which is not emulated correctly; a bunch of corrupted multicolor lines replace it. The same happens in the game credits with zooming-out pictures (at least the one when you beat Black Fortress, I can't remember the one when you beat Rainbow Cloud)."

If you enable "Copy framebuffer to RDRAM" it will go very slowly, but WILL emulate the blur effect. I'm not sure about the zooming-out pictures, but it might fix that too. This also fixes most of the intro problems (uses the blur effect too)

[Speedfreak69]

Paperboy (E) [!] and (U) [!] the map is glitched (no green dots or white pointer)

Spiderman (U) [!] the background is not correct

Space Invaders (U) [!] the shield is glitched and when the mother ship crosses the top, part of it is in the border and when the invaders drop down from the top of the screen aswell

Ridge Racer 64 (E) [!] and (U) [!] choose grand prix and after you choose all of your options part of the screen gets stuck in the right hand side border and can anyone confirm when you go through tunnels are the lights supposed to look like that ????

V-Rally Edition 99 (E) [!] and (U) [!] pointer in the speedometer is glitched, black line through the middle of the screen and on the right hand side in the border is not correct and on the rocks the textures are not correct until you get closer to it and reverse light and brake light (when you brake the light from it )on the right hand side is not correct (moved over a bit to the right)

King Hill 64 - Extreme Snowboarding (J) [!] and Twised Edge Extreme Snowboarding (E) [!] and (U) [!]during the replays (at the start usually)has clipping issues at bottom of the screen and on the menu screen the 3 big snowflakes on the left hand side dont rotate properly

Star Wars Episode 1 Racer (E) (M3) [!] and (U) [!] doesnt detect the expansion pak so you cannot change it to hi res and then when you change memory to 8m and it is detected the resolution is bad
during gameplay sky flashes and clips a fair bit and after the race is finished just let the racer go around the track and you wil see rocks and the grandstand and other things stretch alot

Superman (E) (M6) [!] and (U) (M3) [!] the sky isnt supposed to purple (it is missing the fog)
here are a couple of pics that are correct

[zeeky]

i think ifound the prob with rush 2049 and it not working on the dx8 plugin

i was playing with conker since it had the same prob with not showing 2d stuff

i turned off "ajust the aspect ratio to match your comp"or somthin like that and the 2d poped back up so i think it might work with 2049...

edit:yup it works and it also fixes all those other probs

[Speedfreak69]

Rally '99 (J) [!] and Rally Challenge 2000 (U) [!] during demo and gameplay reflections off the car windows are glitched , the speedometer is glitched and during gameplay there is a lot of slowdown (only when you are looking from behind the car when you are in the car there is no slowdown)
plus the mention errors in the GameFAQ
title screen and menus and in game start timer

and the replays are missing the motion blur

I try adding microcode to RDB, but not work

thanks

for me i think (UNSURE) it could be CPU GFX effect: the cpu is treating all the gfx data so there is no ucode used. It's as with Yakouchuu II - Satsujin Kouru with the movies.

It's detectable for those two games hopefully as most of those effects CAN'T be detected by plugins/emulators it seems (Starcraft intro for instance).

May be Pokemon Stadium GB Tower is using it too

Afaik there is no sound, that's not good and it could be something else.

well nothing to do for that i think :(

Extreme G XG2 seems to have some serious CPU needs. It's most noticable in map Canous, when you're going through the Lower Village map varient, or Mountain Pass. Although the framerate still says 60fps throughout the whole race, it slows down to a slide show on any of my PC's under an Athlon 3200+ XP or equivilant, and even then it has a little trouble. Tried changing my settings (CF, Advanced GFX options, dropping down to preformance setting) but it didn't help.

This may have been already documented, but I searched the thread and FAQ, and nothing mentioned it, so I posted.

Also, when I run Micro Machines 64, I experiance no slow downs or graphics glitches at all. It plays perfectly for me.

[Smiff]

Are you even allowed to post glitches that small? o_o If so I have plenty.

If the VI/s remain constant, it's not a problem with your system. Go back and read some of the reviews from the time of its release. XG2 was roundly criticized for its crippling slowdown.

I'm aware of the normal slow down that occurs even on a real N64. However, I was talking about the horrible slow down that you get on anything that under a 3200+. I mean about 1 frame every two or three seconds. Having a fast computer eleminates this down to its "normal" framerate trouble.

[Fad3d]

Command & Conquer (U) [!] seems to have a few issues with the videos, in-game seems to run fine.
Does not detect expansion pack.

[Speedfreak69]

Are you even allowed to post glitches that small? o_o If so I have plenty.

I only posted this as there are another couple of bugs i havent added on to it yet :P
And a glitch is a glitch no matter how small so if it doesnt get fixed hey no problem to me just trying to help out

Milo's Astro Lanes (E) [!] and (U) [!] scorecard flashes up twice first time it is glitchy (should be only once) and when the ball up in the top left hand corner starts to move off screen a thick line appears on the left hand side

Duke Nukem 64 (E) [!] and (U) [!] objects can be seen thru others (priority problem)

Duke Nukem Zero Hour (U)[!] in the game FAQ it says Region issue does anybody know what the problem is ????

[Clements]

The (U) version of Duke Nukem - Zero Hour freezes after you finish the first section. I played around with a lot of settings and nothing fixed it. (1964 works fine with it).

[Speedfreak69]

In Excitebike 64 (E) [!] i ticked the cheat Unlock Original Excitebike and then reset the game but the original is not unlocked is this a problem with the cheat or emulator ???


The (U) version of Duke Nukem - Zero Hour freezes after you finish the first section. I played around with a lot of settings and nothing fixed it. (1964 works fine with it).

Ok thanks for that

[ggab]

Ok thanks for that
and a thanks to you, for so many (great) bugs found ;)

[Speedfreak69]

Thanks ggab for the kind words :blush:

[PsyMan]

It's true... You're doing a great job :)

i believe there's an issue, but what you've said can't be right.
please post your full system specs.

[Speedfreak69]

Bomberman Hero (E)[!] and (J)[!] and (U)[!] lines on the stage select pictures and priority problem with the crystal (second pic is when you get close to the crystal the door appears) save state included (area 1 secret room)

Bass Tsuri No. 1 - Shigesato Itoi's Bass Fishing (J) [!] when you walk around or in the boat part of a box is on the left hand side and when you cast out an Access Violation comes up (save state included just cast out )

Kirby 64 - The Crystal Shards (E) [!] and (U) [!] and (J) [!] during the intro or cutscenes when you switch from windowed mode to full screen or vicesaversa the border disappears (it will appear at the next cut scene)

Army Men - Sarge's Heroes (E) (M3) [!] go to options and change resolution to high and when you start the game the next screen dont take up the full screen (doesnt happen in the (U) version)

Army Men - Air Combat (U) [!] in two player - four player mode or from level 2 onwards the missile is glitchy (the bottom picture is how it is supposed to look)

Bassmasters 2000 (U) [!] on the Create Angler screen the textures are missing from the person and dont tick Sync game to Audio or the game will freeze up

Blast Corps (E) [!] and (U) [!] and Blast Dozer (J) [!] on the map the vehicles are all glitched and on later levels the bulldozer has a black square around it

[RattleMan]

Also on Blast Corps, the Platinum medals have the same glitch:

[Speedfreak69]

Carmageddon 64 (E) [!] and (U) [!] on the main menu the trophy is supposed to be gold and go to options and music and SFX volumes are missing the blue bar (correct pics down the bottom)

Lode Runner 3-D (E) (M5) [!] and (U) [!] go to the options screen during gameplay and you cannot see which option is highlighted and when you are supposed to press the fire key down in the bottom right hand corner the icon has a grey line coming off of it and in the (U) version the icons up the top are supposed to disappear but the stay on the screen (works properly in the (E) version) and on the (E) version on the title screen the options are invisible (you can here the cursor move up and down when you move it) (doesnt happen in the (U) version)

[Smiff]

Beta12 added.

In addition to the first block of changes on the first post, there is the following:



Added new ROMS (unverified, and some settings may be incorrect, this is why this is a beta file!)

A Bug's Life (I)
Chou-Kuukan Night Pro Yakyuu King 2 (J)
Jikkyou World Cup France '98 J V1.2
Pokemon Stadium 2 (I)
Pokemon Stadium (I)
Pro Mahjong Tsuwamono 64
Shadowgate 64 (I)
Turok 2 - Seeds of Evil (FGD)

A warning that in the current public version of GoodN64,
the following [!] ROMs may be bad, because a redump exists:

Bass Tsuri No. 1 - Shigesato Itoi's Bass Fishing (J)
Diddy Kong Racing (J) (changed status to "Bad ROM?" because CRC changed)
Pawapuro Puroyakyu 6 (J) (aka Jikkyou Powerful Pro Yakyuu 6)
Yousuke Ide's Mahjong School (J) (aka Ide Yosuke no Mahjong Juku)
Nushi Tsuri 64 Shiokaze ni notte (old dump definately bad, now starts!)



If people could check this aswell that would be good, without GoodN64 (being up to date) we have no absolute guide so errors are possible.

[Techman]

I found one (two?) mistake(s?) and few cosmetic errors in the GameFAQ:

Legend of Zelda, The - Majora's Mask / Zelda no Densetsu - Mujura no Kamen

It says: Why can't I see Navi's (fairy's) body? even though it should say Why can't I see Tatl's (fairy's) body?

Tsumi to Batsu - Chikyuu no Keishousha / Sin and Punishment

I thought the complete name was Sin and Punishment: Successor of the Earth ?

___

Cosmetic errors:

Some of the game descriptions have a gap between the <hr> line and Known issues/Frequently Asked Questions text and some don't. I assume that the gap is supposed to be there because it is in all games between the <hr> line and the FAQ answers.

[Speedfreak69]

F-1 World Grand Prix (E) [!] and (J) [!] and (U) [!] during the intro glitches near some of the cars.
In windowed mode parts of the previous screen are in the border (doesnt happen in full screen mode).
During game RPM meter is glitched and on some tracks the sky is clipped and buildings in the background the textures are glitched.
In 2 player mode the bottom of the track is clipped.
on options screen green light is glitched.

[olivieryuyu]

small error:

it's not Turok 2 - Seeds of Evil (FGD) but Turok 2 - Seeds of Evil (FIS)
it's not Shadowgate 64 (I) but (IS)

and what about Nintama Rantarou (J), Hexen (F), Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six (F), International Superstar Soccer 2000 (FI), Rugrats - Die grosse Schatzsuche (G), The Legend of Zelda - Majora's Mask (E) (1.1) ?

[Speedfreak69]

F-1 World Grand Prix II (E) (M4) [!] Intro doesnt take up the whole screen.
Glitchy line on options screen and red dot is glitched.
During demo glitchy lines near cars and during rain the cars have glitchy lines above them.
On some tracks building textures are glitched.
During 2 player game bottom of track is clipped.
During game RPM meter is glitched and sky clips sometimes.

Rugrats - Die grosse Schatzsuche (G)

Does the PJ64 RDB support the letter 'ß' ? If yes, you can call the game 'Rugrats - Die große Schatzsuche (G)'.

[KyJelly]

i had a look at the faq entry for perfect dark and it says that modern hardware is need for the cam spy to work properly. well i have a 9800 pro and you mean to tell me that that video card isn't "modern" enough? and what's strange is that it'll work sometimes in coop mode.

are there some rom options that i should enable for this particular hardware to get the cam spy working bcause it's very frustrating being stuck on the second mission :)

[axcc123]

disney's tarzan (U) [!], tarzan life line does not show

What it should look like:
http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/723/snap0ay.gif

[da1writer]

1.Tarzan (U) can be fixed easily by switching to Jabo's Direct 3d6 1.5.2 plugin.
2.Rampage World Tour (U) need to use glN64 v0.4.1 to get the glitches out, speed is kinda sacrificed though. 3rd party plugin.
3.Robotron 64 (E) is confirmed of having a 3d logo of Crave, haven't figured out why (U) rom doesn't. Sound/music speed
can be fixed if you use Jabo DirectSound 1.6- Sync game to Audio on.
4.Chopper Attack(U), F1 World Grand Prix I(U) and F1 World Grand Prix II(E) recquire a 3rd party plugin called Glide64 v0.8 wonder (paste in the plugin folder) with it's glide3x.dll(outside the plugin's folder.) It fixes all their problems.
5.Clay fighter 63 1-3(U) can have a few of it's issues fixed by grabbing Jabo Direct3D6 1.5.2.
6.Road Rash 64 can get all fixed up by using Rices newest plugin (Rice 6.1.1 Beta 6 is what I'm using). 3rd party plugin.

no one?

[F-3582]

no one?
First of all: completely wrong thread.

Possible solution: Try enabling the "Copy FB to RDRAM" option in the video plugin.

[KyJelly]

doesn't that slow it down a bunch?

sorry about wrong thread but i read it in the game faq and just thought...

sorry but that didnt do it :(

[RattleMan]

EDIT: I diagnosed the problem: Some cheats were on. The default cheats included for Yoshi's Story will, when all activated, freeze the game when you get the last fruit.

Original Post: I have a problem with Yoshi's Story inwhich when you get the last piece of fruit (on the first real level at least), the game freezes. I checked, and my ROMs are good.

[onemustfall]

I noticed some problems in PJ64 and thought i ought to report them.

1. Castlevania - Legacy of Darkness; I noticed that nearing the end of the begging long movie there is a noticable glitch.

2. Rat Attack; At the very first the frame rate is very slow. For me it averages about 11.74 FPS.

3. 007 Goldeneye; in windowed mode; walk james bond around a little then move your mouse to system; which is on the menu bar; click it and there is an offset glitch in the video.

4. In Bust-A-Move '99; the game is completely unplayable the only thing that shows perfectly is the Acclaim Entertainment preveiw, but before and after the preveiw it shows a corrupted white line, and a barcode looking thing. I have the same problem with the game; Bust-A-Move 3 DX.

5. Big Mountain 2000; when you see the menu in the game then texture that says "press start" is way off insted it says "rt press sta" and same goes with all the options that come after I press start. Example: New game says "EW GAME N" and options says "ptions o"

6. Bettle Adventure Racing; when you press a button to skip the preveiws of the gameplay where the car is racing and crashing there is a yellow and black corrupted video segment that displays before entering the main menu.

7. Dark Rift; when fighting you and your opponent are not visible.

8. Bottom of the 9th; the game preveiws at the first are only displayed as a flash and are corrupt. After that the screen is black for an unusually long time until the menu shows.

9. Mission Impossible; when you start a game with the difficulty set at possible it shows a movie at the first located in a park. The grey building in the background shows a side that makes the building look uneven.

10. Paper Mario; when the stage is introduced onto the screen there are a series of flashes that shouldnt be in the game.

11. Yoshi's Story; while in your first level playing, you start running and jumping the video on the left half of the screen flickers.

12. Mega Man 64; after the two nintendo and capcom preveiws show there is a ocean and a sky and in that sky there is a plane. In this setting there is an offset black grid, when it should show no black grid lines.

13. F1 World Grand Prix 2; when racing the throttle bar in the bottom-right corner seems corrupted.

14. F1 World Grand Prix 2; Fans in the top seats have a blue outline arround them.

15. Monster Truck Madness 64; the first logo screen shows a bunch of lines which are supposed to be words. Same goes with the rest of the text in the game. The text is replaced with a line that looks like a bunch of metal barrols put together.

16. Hydro Thunder; all off the seperate textures in the game have a green line arround them.

17. Hydro Thunder; when you are choosing your boat it shows a movie clip in the middle of the motorboat riding in the water. The water flickers lightgreen and back to water this is a corruption in the video.

18. Carmageddon 64; when at the menu there is a rotating trophy, it is brown and i believe it should be metalic gold.

19. Command and Conquer; When you are listening to general sheperd's call the video is stretched out of it's frame.

20. Battlezone - Rise of the Black Dogs; when playing; the bottom half of the screen is black the top is almost normal but flickers.

21. The world is not enough; there is a soundcorruption when you first play, and you are talking to the bank lady.

22. Fighter Destiny 2; When fighting the life bars seem wrong.

23. Kirby 64; I believe the life bar is incorrectly shown.

These are all the bugs I could find in the time i had to type this, i hope to have helped.

thanks

EDIT: I am using the latest pj64 v1.6 and the latest plugins.

[Speedfreak69]

In the latest RDB gameFAQ Cybertiger is printed twice in the list

Hydro Thunder (E) [!] and (U) [!] on the choose a boat screen the water goes from green to black to correct and starts over again and in the rom browser there is no notes pointing to the gameFAQ about the known issues
