Alright, when I first started using PJ64 it ran like a dream. A few graphical glitches here and there, nothing debilitating. Then I lost interest for a little bit, started back up and everything is f'ed up. Games than ran fine then, now blow ass. They look like garbage and the texures are all messed up. Almost to a comical effect. And then 99% of the time the damned thing (PJ64) crashes. I haven't changed any hardware config's and I haven't updated anything.

Help?

P.S. my Specs are Here, at the bottom. (http://www.xfire.com/profile/mrdonutking)

I did not know about that section in the user CP, and I have now updated it.

I am already up-to-date on all my drivers, and yes I know this card blows. The sad part is, this card is a blessing compared to the one in my other computer. That one barely runs Direct X 8

EDIT: I fail to see how it's my graphics, seeing as it ran perfectly before.

that probably wont help cos
a) N64 runs as 64 bit thus the name nintendo 64
b) i just dont think it will
c) as much as i would like to post several arguments against ur suggestion i simply cannot think of good enough reasons ok.

Which has virtually nothing to do with how the emulator (or the console) handles the graphics.

No offence, but this quite possibly the most illogically founded argument I've ever read here. The first 'reason' could be innocent ignorance, but the other two... For future reference, know your stuff before contradicting those who do. Again, sorry if I'm being blunt.

no, Toasty, you are quite in the right.

to the original poster.

what version were you using when it worked right?

if it was 1.5, then its becoz of the video plugin, switch to the Dx 6 plugin.

They meant 16BPP (bits per pixel) Also known as High Color instead of True Color in Control Panel.
