[Rice]

Just like StrmnNrmn, I would like to get the plugin out, then I can start to merge the two different versions of the Daedalus D3D plugin, StrmnNrmn version and my version.

Another reason for me to do this release is because I need to a take some rest, to ease myself from sitting before the computer the whole day and do nothing but typing code.

Just like the name of the plugin, Daedalus D3D8 0.08, D3D8 = DirectX/Direct3D 8.0+, so you need DirectX 8.0 or 8.1 to use this plugin.

It is developed with Geforce2 video card only, for other video card, I believe there will be few or many combiner (Alpha blending) problem because different video card is implemented DirectX support differently.

There are many improvement in this version by comparing to my earlier version (the unofficial DaedalusD3D 0.7b), though speed could be slower because DirectX 8.0+ is somehow slower than DX7, or just because I have added many things and have never done good optimization. I am using PIII-600/512M RAM/Geforce2 system, the speed is ok for me for most games, some games are really slow for reason to be studied.

Major improvements are Sprite2D, S2DEX, texture handling, new ucodes (used to be unknown), plus StrmnNrmn's new automatic ucode detecting, of course, a lot of bug fixes.

You should expect many games that were used to miss text, menu or graphics, are now running more or less better, or just playable now. I don't want to make a list, but I have post some screen shots in another thread, which covers some of these games.

Don't expect everything working as you expected, because you might have expected too much.

Pay attention to some of the new options in the configuration dialog box, especially the "Smart Screen Update" option. It is turned off by default, but many of the improved games need it to be on, so if a game should work but you see just a black/white screen, stop the game, turn the option on and restart the game.

There are other known problem. One of them is the plugin can only play a few games, then it starts to report DirectX error. Then you need to restart your emu, so the refresh the plugin. I hope I can fix this problem soon, it is caused some of the DirectX resources are not released correctly.

It is about it, so try it yourself, don't blame if it doesn't work because it is a unofficial one, and it is WIP.

[Rice]

ops, missed the attachment.

[Rice]

Only tested it with 1964, it should work with other emulators.

[Quvack]

Ahhh this is cool :) nice work

[Eddy]

thanks rice :D

[FireBone]

hm...yoshi works at the start good but in the game a only this:

[sk8bloke22]

ok theres a really weird bug this is causing with 1964. basically some games, like kirby64 and killer instinct gold (both (U)) [!] ) freeze the emu with a blank screen. not quite sure wats going on there. n e way congrats on the release.

[AIPER666]

Nice work,Rice. :) and I hope that in the next releases of your plugin you will correct the 2D bug of evangelion64 and resident evil2... please! ;)

[Thubb]

Yes, i can´t get fullscreen to work with the plugin...

neither alt+enter or manually by clicking "fullscreen" in the menubar...

any hints ?

Thubb

[lasly]

It's Fu****G Great Thx..;

Good Idea to release WIP , even if it's not complete It's allow us to test all ur progress !
VEry nice rice ! Congratulations, we are waiting for the next release ! :)

[Trotterwatch]

This is an excellent plug-in, massive congratulations go to StrmnNrmn (for the bulk of the code) and to Rice for doing the modification of the plug-in. I can't wait to see what you both manage to come up with next!

[Doomulation]

One word: w00000000000000000000000000000t!!!!!!!!!

[Evrain]

I cannot quite believe in what this plugin is achieving: a lot of games like the above mentioned EVA64 and RE2 are FINALLY displaying some 2D: some other fixes, and this could become the perfect N64 plugin. GREAT WORK! Tnx to both Rice and StrmnNrmn for such a thing, keep on!
Evrain

[Doomulation]

Unfortunaly, to say, it's running very slow :(
It's running around 30 fps on castlevania (a small game).
And full screen doesn't work. Whenever you try to enter it, it tells of an error and the emu stops responding.

I have tried this is both pj and 1964.

[Shapyi]

Rice, do you plan to release the source code?

[Rice]

Because I am in the middle of merging with StrmnNrmn's code, it does not make much sense to release the source now. If you want it, email me and I will send to you.

[Shapyi]

Thanks Rice, I mailed your yahoo account.

[Oravla]

Rice, Good Work, this plugin is fantastic

1964: dont work fullscreen, it´s a bit slow, you have to refresh the plugin. (extinted 1964 0.8.3c)

Pj64: dont work fullscreen, its faster, you dont have to refresh the plugin, less compatibility, example: Cruis USA.

[Oravla]

hey this is new in this plugin.

Good Graphics, Bad menus.

[Oravla]

Another...

[Oravla]

Run very slow, only in 1964

[Oravla]

It´s more playable

[Oravla]

I really liked this game, the menus needs more works. Good Graphics

[Oravla]

Donkey Kong 64: Runs Fine, you can see the intro story, camera issues.

Hybrid Heaven: text problem.

Bomberman Second Attack: Text and menus Problems

ExciteBike 64: Backgrounds Problems, run very fast.

MegaMan 64: walls ok.

Paper Mario: sprites problem, less flickering.

Bomberman 64: Press Start in Intro.

Bust -A-Move: Runs Perfect.

In General the plugin need more 2d support.

But this is a great plugin

[sk8bloke22]

hey oravla, u tried about every game i tried. yeh, this is a great plugin, and its pretty new, so its got plenty of time to get better.

[lodmaster]

I tried this on PJ64 and 1964. WCW/NWO Revenge, WCW World Tour, and Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 all freeze. Revenge looks great, but after about a minute it freezes. The other 2 freeze before I can get to the actual fighting. Is this a known problem or is it just me?

[Rice]

lodmaster, for WCW/NWO Revenge, WCW World Tour, I remember you need to use the "Smart Screen Update" option. Even it freezes, I don't believe it is caused by the plugin, should caused by emulator.

[Rice]

hm, still hassprites problem. Can you post a shot? And is it still flickering? You can try to frame buffer type = "Double Buffer Copy Sync", it will be slow.

hmmm, I've tried Apollo, 1964 and PJ64. Are there any options in the emus that could be making the games freeze?

[Rice]

Don't know, I tried the WCW v nWO world tour, no freeze for me.

[LD.]

Most likely it's a bad ROM then. Helluva nice job on the plugin Rice, even though it runs like treacle for me (ie: very very slowly)

[lodmaster]

Nope, it's a good rom. I'm still messing around with settings. I'll tell you if I find anything. Anyone else having trouble with WCW/NWO: Revenge?

[guve25]

...mmm... help here please... Pj64 and 1964 both crashes whenever I use the plug in... ?

is it because my spec?

cely 800@1024
geForce 2 gts @ 210/350
yamaha XG
256-pc133

i've downclock the rig, but still the emus freezes

[harb]

I get an errormessage,too,using that plugin.


"Uploadscreen failed"
the emulator is closed


both p64 and 1964 show the same results...

any way to fix that? :-/

[crhylove]

i've got the same error. and i've got to ask despite the welling of fear in my soul with apprehension about the answer:

are you runnin' win 98se? cuz imho that is the defacto win 2 run. xp and me and 2000 are all slow and won't run all my games/apps.

but....

the whole 1964 crew is mega anti 98 (see win 98 thread in the .8.3 removed area or whatever on this board).

n e way... i'll put my money where my mouth is and ship you guys a win 98 pc for testing if u want. nothin' fancy, just some crap old k6, but that'll do the job (as far as checking for crashes).

because xp is the continuation of ms spyware and should be boycotted DESPITE the technical and compatibility issues (not to mention speed, speed SUCKS in xp!!!).

[Eddy]

oh please dont, xp is microsoft's best os yet.

[SSonicHedgehog]

hey rice
is there any way that add support for intell chipset video cards?
with my intell chipset and your d3d deadalus video plugin, with any emulator i use i get no textures at all with most games and some game only show part of the gfx.
with version 0.07b a lot of games worked but with 0.08 almost nothing works and every thing goit a lot slower.

here are some pictures

first is Mario 64

[SSonicHedgehog]

and one more from 0.07b

Jabos has 2d texture problems on intell chipset and i can't get Glide64 or evoodoo to work right

i'm trying to find a good plugin for intell chipset cards

this one looked good for awhile
i just want to know why 0.07b worked and 0.08 doesn't
and i asked if it was possable to add support (even if it's very limited) for the intell chipsets

because it's built-in to my mother board (the video card) i can't change it and any time i try to disable it my computer messes up
other wise i would have updated my video card already so that i wouldn't have to worry about this stuff

also i can't get any Glide wrappers to work at all

[zorbid]

Then stick to 0.07b... ;) You might want to try StrmnNrmn's version of the deadalus plugin, or wait for the upcoming release of glide64+eVoodoo3. About the missing textures a part of the problem is the 8Mb only video memory that your "card" has.

No, no plugin will work on such a crappy card!
Go buy yourself another card, dammit! There's lots of 'em, especially geforce, which are very cheap now!

You dont get it doom, If it is INTIGRATED , then you cannot replace it... You will have to destroy the mobo inorder to replace it... in Most Chipsets, you cant add anything due to lack of PCI and AGP ports.. I insist you dont assume anything for something you have not had... As far as i know, Glide64 + eVoodoo (NEXT RELEASE!), Jabos Direct3D work under this card... Quit being a dick to people who have crappy cards, it is not their fault... :plain2:

Change the goddamn mobo then!
Besides, this crappy system is not sold anymore!
Make them complain on the companies they got it from, make sure they pay! 'Cuz that is such a crappy card, that's unbelieveable that any game nor emulation works on it!

Wrong, it is still being sold (IE: Intel Chipset 815E) but now with PCI Slots... The fact still remains that their is still intigrated video

Now that you know alot better about this type of GFX Chipset, I will expect that you will know what to say instead of being a total asshole about it...

[sk8bloke22]

okay its not the easiest thing to change a motherboard, i for one wouldnt probably know where to start. also im sure most ppl with such setups dont wanna change their pc just for an emu.

ssonic the hedgehog: the unofficial 0.08 is very buggy at the moment, and that could partly suggest why u cant get it to work. hav u tried strmn nrmn's official new release (0.08bpre3 i think) that was released yesterday...i dont think any of the news posters hav seen the update on the daedalus page :/

anyway, go to daedalus.boob.co.uk and grab it. none of the big issues that were in strmn nrmn's first release of D3d0.08 are their, so u might get a better result with ur gfx card.

Stop being an asshole on me!
I can't believe the stupid card is sold when you buy a new computer. They must know that it's crap by now!
All new computers i see always have geforces as gfx cards!

And you said that the new has "pci slots", right? Perhaps this dude has it too?
Doesn't matter anyway...

Here is a thought... If you are a person whi has no clue about computers, what could you buy? A Top of the line computer having no idea what kind of power it has, or buy a simple computer to use for work and school not to mention cheap... Making the computer lower than Top of the line computers make n00bs (not assuming that SSonicHedgehog is a n00b) more atraccted to those kinds of computers...

Originally posted by Doomulation

Do me a favor, you go to a couple of computers at a computer store, Start -> Run -> DXdiag.. You go to the Display tab and look what kind of GFX Card it has...

Originally posted by Doomulation

He might, but it still sucks to run a GFX Card using PCI instead of AGP..

[Doomulation]

Goddamn crap cards...
shouldn't even exist!
Sheesh!

[jih2000]

Its fairly simple,

I expect there will be either a jumper on the motherboard that will disable the video card or it can be done in the bios via software! Well this is the case for 90% of motherboards, I disabled my SB1024 on my motherboard using just the bios!!!!!! and put in an audigy.

Just look in the manual under integrated graphics chipset or under the motherboard schematic and see if there is a disable intel graphics jumper. Another indicator that this is possible is if the motherboard has an AGP slot eg why put a slot there if it is not possible to disable the onboard graphics :)

If you don't have the motherboard manual, check the make and version by reading it from the bootup or off of the main board eg gigabyte-7dx and then go to the manufactures website and download the manual, lots provide manuals online or the information is available on enthusiast websites.

Then buy a geforce/ati radeon... as intel is crap as i have tried using those cards with pc games :)

MartyMcFly

[sk8bloke22]

yeh, but as cpumaster said, some intel motherboards dont even hav agp/pci slots. they are the real cheap shit. so even thats not possible.

The best choice would be an nForce Motherboard: they're pretty damn good.

[Smiff]

wtf is going on here.

the solution is to teach people one simple rule that they can take with them to the computer store. that is:

"i don't want any integrated parts please".

which must go along with

"i'm willing to pay a bit more for seperates".

you may well be shown the door, but so be it.

Yes that won't help you now but it sure as hell will next purchase you make.

[Evrain]

Smiff is absolutely right: an integrated solution would be good only in a full upgrade (u remove the old component from the old case and replace it, as I'm doing with the Sound card of my new PC), otherwise it's only suicidal to buy such a solution, but first of all SUCH A CHIPSET!!! There was one on my old motherboard, and I bought it 7 years ago!
Evrain

[crhylove]

i can almost PROMISE you this guy has an empty pci slot, and that the internal gfx card can be bypassed either through the bios or mobo jumpers.

this is kind of 733+ skills territory if your a n00b, but hey, you gotta learn sometime.

look inside your box dude, c if u have an agp slot, and if u do, get an agp card and upgrade, otherwise, get a pci one.

good luck

oh here's a shopping tip: www.pricewatch.com

[SSonicHedgehog]

i have had my computer for..... i think about a little over half a year to a year (not sure)..... it's a Hp Pavilion 8650C
i have an Intel 810 Chipset Graphics Driver PV 2.0
it's not my fault that i have this computer, my dad is the one that buys any computers i have ever had.
He trys to get the realy fast but not very expesive computers, and if it's ends a with a good card thats great but if it don't.... oh well because unless the computer doesn't work right he won't take it back.
me and my dad know alot about computers and yes he would know to get a better gfx card but we don't have the money to get a "GOOD" computer.
besides a freind of mine has an intel chipset card (i think it might be the 815e) in his e-machine and it run everything perfectly (includind n64 emulators), so not all chipsets are bad.
i also know some one else with a chipset (it's almost the sames as what i have) he has a hp pavilion with a chipset gfx driver and when he (and after words my dad) tryed to put in a better gfx card the computer "had a fit"
they got set up so that the computer was using the new card but the computer would not work with the chipset disabled so they had to force the computer to only use the chipset when it had to.
but that still didn't completly fix the problem (computers with older chipsets make it hard to change gfx cards, the computer still wants the chipset)

Oh and here is what the other deadalus plugin does on pj64 and 1964. Any ideas how to fix this?

[SSonicHedgehog]

and heres Jabos v1.4

[SSonicHedgehog]

and in game

[SSonicHedgehog]

And this is it on jabos v1.3

[SSonicHedgehog]

BTW on my computer it says that the chipset gfx has up to 11mb allocated form my ram to video memory (my computer came with 64mb ram and is now 256mb)

[jih2000]

You can usually allocate system memory to the graphics card in the bios (usually press del when the computer first turns on or resets) and change the AGP apature size. A rule of thumb is to set this to half the size of the system ram eg you have 256mb so set it to 128mb. (Although your graphics card may be hardwired to use only 11mb!)

However if I were you I would disable the graphics card and purchase a cheap geforce 2 (£40 in the UK and even Geforce3Ti200 is £80)!!!, you will save yourself a lot of time and frustraction and it will improve the overall performance of your system too!

MartyMcFly

[Jabo]

about 10 years ago, I had a computer with integrated graphics, there was a jumper to disable onboard graphics to replace it with newer stuff. I would imagine that same ability exists today, so go to the store and buy a cheap video card with this in mind.

These days integrated graphics have gotten much better, ATi and nVidia have solutions I dreamed about years ago for the consumer market. I doubt they are heavily used, but they exist.

[SSonicHedgehog]

ok
thanks i'll take a look at it and see what i can do
:)

[ScottJC]

2d is great, although the 3d is very messed up, a bit like jabo's plugin .. but reversed! anyway glad to see the 2d is emulated in this game..

[sk8bloke22]

if u r talking about wipeout, 3d seems fine to me :/

[ScottJC]

Well i own the actual game and i now for a fact that the screenshot you showed me doesn't look right

Btw I am using 1964 and have a geforce 2 card the same as you :)

[sk8bloke22]

we all 'have own the game' ;) (j/k). there are minor issues, but the game is still playable, of course im sure its missing quite a lot from its console status, but the game doesnt suffer from major gfx issues that prevent playablility, or its not unrecognisable from wat its meant to look like.

[ScottJC]

True, but some parts of the track seem to be transparent for me, or mucked up, anyway, saying that, i won't complain, this plug-in is great.

I also believe its faster than Jabos video plugin, :D

go :1964: and the unofficial :daedalus: plugin, it simply rocks, i'm definatly impressed by it even if it has some minor issues :)

[2bzy4ne1]

The plugin fixed the problem with the cars in Penny Racers. Now you can actually see the cars.:) Good work Rice.:1964:

A word to Sonic: Next time you buy a PC, Build it yourself! Buy the separate parts and put it up yourself. Since you and your father know about computers, this shouldn't be hard. And it will be cheaper too. So, next time, build it yourself. It will be more enjoyable ;)

I agree, it is enjoyable and it is cheaper.
Just how do you think i put my computer together? :P
It was the best at the time i made it.

[SSonicHedgehog]

well we have made one or two before but they were older computers
we have a hard time finding all the stuff we need to make a "NEW" computer

i would love to make an up-to-date computer
there is alot of stuff i want in it

most store bought computers have nothing close to what i would like for it to come with

[prafull]

@SSonicHedgehog,

Some of your problems can be solved.

1. Make sure you have change blending mode if invalid for video card option disabled.(that will take care of most black stuff).
2.If you havent already enabled all advanced options (use emulate clear and tick mark all 3 force options) ,try it.

Btw @all plugin coders

these are not the problem with hardware. You can solve the problem with little bit of work(Nickk solved the same problem in his d3d plugin for psx emulators with some of my support).
Anyway this problem is relevant in jabo's plugin only.

yes but the force blending disables fog, don't fix textures (just makes background of it clear), and can make thing see through.

[grayhound]

man, well done, keep up the good work

[StealtherX]

How the heck do i use the plugin? I dont know how to work "File" type files.

[Evrain]

First, the plugin is a "DLL" file, second, you must put it in the "Plugin" directory of Pj64/1964.
When you've done this, open the emulator, open the plugin selection window and choose the Daedalus D3D8 from the menu.
Easy, uh?
Evrain

[Merick]

Hey Sonic, try searching on eBay or Yahoo! auctions. You can get the parts to build a decent computer for around $500 or less with the right auctions.

[Merick]

Ok, I just tried playing Shadowgate 64 in PJ64 with the unofficial plugin and here are the results:

When starting a new game there is a 2D animation sequence, with other plugins the framerate would drop to almost nothing when the animation is playing, but with Daedalus D3D8 it varies between 10 and 20 fps

During the game, the start and inventory menus move faster, but when selecting a book from the inventory the pages still turn very slowly.

When Rice posted the plugin he said this:

It is developed with Geforce2 video card only, for other video card, I believe there will be few or many combiner (Alpha blending) problem because different video card is implemented DirectX support differently.

Does this have anything to do with the textures not displaying correctly?

[StealtherX]

How does the plugin work?

[Merick]

Put the .DLL in your emu's plugin folder, then select it in the emu's settings menu.

I just tried using Daedalus to play Paper Mario, and it crashed my system. This is the first time that any program has crashed my comp since I installed WinXP

[Evrain]

I think he wants to know HOW the plugins work, how it emulates the N64 GFX...
Evrain

[Doomulation]

I think it's a little too hard for him to understand if he's not a programmer. Just settle with the knowledge of knowing how to use it. Most does ;)

LoL I program in C++ , Java, and VB and I still couldn't tell ya how the plugins work ;') but thats mostly because I don't know how the graphics are processed within the actual N64 and I only have very very very basic knowledge with the Direct X and OpenGL api's otherwise I would have released an OpenGL plugin thats enhanced for NVidia cards by now and would have joined in the efforts of bringing an OpenGL native UltraHLE into this world lol...
but that will come later
