Possible release date for 1964 0.9.9 ?!?!

[cozmo477477]

Does anyone have a release date on the 1964 v 0.9.9 ? and or if it will play roms at full speed ?

 

[dukenukem]

there is no definite release date because it will only be available to beta testers on a private ftp.

Ok thats cool, at the 1964 emu site <a href="http://1964emu.emulation64.com/"></a> it gives some info but not the release date, it says:

We are approaching our final release of 1964. It is likely that we will release 0.9.9 before the final 1.0.0 as a final beta. Here's some of what to expect:

- Jet Force Gemini support.
- Improved NetPlay.
- RidgeRacer bug finally fixed.
- New audio plugin.
- 99% of playable games now work in the faster 32bit core, including Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, and Banjo Tooie. The remaining games that are playable work in the 64bit core.
- Many new core enhancements and bug fixes, including SSE optimizations.
- A completely redesigned fpu for the dynarec that never needs to check the fpu mode at fpu opcodes.
- Donkey Kong 64 fixed. Core bugfixes fixed graphics issues with this game. It's fun!

im also new to these emulator's and still dont know how they work yet, i mean i have an idea but, it looks like i have some homework to do thanks for the help!

well welcome to the boards and don't forget to ask questions about emulator problems here and make sure you try out more than one emulator.

Cozmo, roms playing at full speed is a function of both the emulator and your computer. With an xp2100, (runs about 1.7ghz) I can get 30 FPS on nearly every game I have. 30fps is the norm for n64 games, so I do fairly well. When I use sound emulation, I get problems, but apparently everybody else does too. As for release dates, the authors typically don't give them. For some reason, the given release date suddenly coincides with finals, homework being due, family emergencies, or hurricanes.

Cozmo, you should be fine when it come to playing an emulator for N64, your processor is fast enough, and you have a fairly decent graphics card for N64 emulation. I think thatyou should get regular speed for almost all games, but you might have difficulty with the 512MB games (ie. Conker's Bad Fur Day, Resident Evil 2) at full speed with perfect sound.

Ok now i see a little clearer on how this works, so with my system i shouldnt have to many problems i guess.i have problems with some games even though 1964 says playable or (use plugin so and so etc.)
maybe you can relate to a few of the problems i have :

excitebike runs slow
gauntlet legends really slow
killer instinct gold slow
mario golf slow
mortal kombat trilogy slow
nascar 2000 slow

even with the recomended plugins any suggestions?


Thanks for the reply :1964:

Mortal Kombat I know has always been known to be slow, as with KI GOld, I dont have the other ROMS, so i couldnt help you there, Check out PJ64, the common problems are listed aside of the game (ie. DK64 Core issues (hoped to be fixed in new 1964 when its released)), and other games listed as high system requirements, which you probably should be fine for

 

[karth95]

Amazingly, you managed to pick the list of games that has the current highest amount of unsupported features. Some of these will probably be fixed in the new 1964. Some of those works really well with mupen64, as well.

also, you should try the glide plugin... using that in 1964 mortal kombat plays almost perfectly for me, as well as some of the others.

Just because it says It is playable does NOT mean that it will run at full speed, playable means it works. Mystical Ninja for example is playable with jabos but at a slow speed... however you can use rices dedalus plugin to solve that.

These things are either:

A) To do with the core, (yes, thats 1964)
B) to do with the video plugin, 99% of the time this is the case, its the video plugin that makes mystical ninja slow i know that for a certainty.

Never ask when the release is going to happen, nobody knows. plus the authors aren't likely to tell you either... be paitent the authors have more to worry about than just 1964. such as real life.

 

[cozmo477477]

Sayargh, yes patience is "my" virtue :beer: im just asking simple questions so i can be sure of certain of things since, this is the first time ive really asked anyone questions about emulators, games and what not.

as far as what i found about emulators on the internet which is more than enough, i thought asking for a release date on the 1964 was more than fair, considering the facts ive found

as far as knowing real life matters, i do understand :naughty: these people are using their own free time to create and conduct a better emulator.

someday with these answers ill be able to answer somone else's confusion and curiosity.

Thank's :1964:

To get your specs in your sig, simply go into your UserCP and enter the specs in your profile (in the boxes provided for you). It will then show up in your sig.

 

[revl8er]

Try using different plugins. You can download them in the downloads section.

 

[dukenukem]

if games are darker try turning up the brightness on your monitor.

Please don't give download links for Jabo's plugins, they were meant to be bundled only with j64: , then copied into other emu plugin folders. It might be inconvenient, but those are the author's wishes, and Project64 is only a ~1MB download.

I know that you are new to this board Cozmo, but Jabo wants his plugins to be distributed with PJ64, and no other means whatsoever, you have to download PJ64 to get them.

Whoevber is distributing them separately is not following the distribution rules
