various problems, games, graphics, sound etc

[rarr]

wow first of all what a great emu, i've used loads of emulators, from amiga to playstation, and about 12 different N64 emus....
this was about a year ago and since then alot have stopped being developed.....

now i've started using them again and found pj64, and its great...

i have a couple of problems with a few games though...i'm not sure what the cause of the problems is, could be the plugins or the emu, i'm not to up on what does what....

wipeout... says in the list when i first load up its compatible.... when i load it fails to do anything...

tony hawk.. says it is compatible with no problems... but everything except when your playing is currupt.. eg menus

hot wheels...says the game is fine except the menus.... the menus dont even show just blackness....

starfox... big boxes thats supposed to be the fire that comes out of the ship, and a few other miner graphics bugs...

rig racer... boxes for around the trees and menus not right.... but other than not a great looking game

Its a fantastic emulator and maybe this isnt the right place to post this.... but i was wondering if any one had any solution to these problems..

Im on a 700 AMD K7, with a voodoo 3 3000, sound blaster live card and win XP
using Jabo's Direct3D7 1.40 video plugin, Azimer's Audio v0.40 Beta 2 audio plugin and N-Rage`s Direct-Input8 1.61 control plugin.

i dont want a miracle, just help on making things a bit better,
any help very much appreciated.

ammendment to about three mins ago...

hotwheels does work and as the program correctly reports the menus do work right... the game is however very slow.

wipout... no menus but the game works, no map, time etc...

hello there rarr. the reason why you have those problems is because of the weak video card. i have the same card and someone is making a glide plug-in so we wont have those type of problems. or just get a geforce 2 gts 32MB or higher. and that should solve yur problems. lol . check out the progress of the plug-in by goin to the emu coding forum. under N64 Glide Plug-in.

i think your right, my card is on the way out... it keeps causing crashing under max payne and DFLW, maybe its time for a new card....

[sk8bloke22]

try setting tony hawks to internal transforms in the video options.
unless u mean really corrupt gfx then its ur gfx card.

rarr, you can try the DirectControl trick it should give you better graphics

directcontrol trick whats that?

[gokuss4]

yeah that was my next question

[rarr]

hmm i found the direct controll homepage but guess what? its down for the time being.... seems to be my luck at the moment....

for future reference direct control homepage is.... http://home.gci.net/~bgalm/

[Ogy]

yes the homepage is down.
i think this is the old hompage .
but the new one (somthing like-www.gamespot.com/bgrsoftware)
is down too, anyway you can down load it from many tweaking sites, even some emu sites have it, here's one.

after you d/l it run it and disable advance AGP
