In legend of zelda ovarina of time on p64, im having a bad graphics problem. In hyrule castle town, inside just about every house anywhere, and just about anything that isnt 3d, it just looks... horrible.Is there someway to fix this? Oh... wait... another problem. When I try to take a screen shot, it says theres an error. It tells me to turn of FSAA, but... what the heck is that? So, no screen shot... Can someone help me with these two problems please? Thank you.

1st: That's how it is on the real N64. These are merely jpgs that cannot be enhanced very well.

2nd: Try using the PrtScn button instead on your keyboard to copy the screen (Alt+PrtScn to capture an active window), then paste into Paint and save.

It is because a TV have a much lower resolution than a PC monitor, and the pictures themselves are small. When the image is blown up to fit a larger resolution, the blurriness is made more apparent and the "3D look" is somewhat spoiled as a result. Texture filters (such as 2xSAI) can also make the image become artifacted.

i would suggest running the game at 640x480 fullscreen with Antialiasing on a high level.
you set all this in the video plugin, first tab.

Well, first of all, in the fullscreen setting, theres more than one 640x480. it has different bitages and stuff. The antialiasing did nothing but cause really bad slow down every few minutes. So... that didnt work.

my advice was good but general - without your system specs we can't be more specific.
