So what do i do you say.

Well here you go i say.

Use Mupen64 0.5 for an emulator.
Use rice 5.6.0 for a video plugin. Set Current Game Options to
frame update at [at ci change]N64 frame buffer at [basic framebuffer]
and [basic render-to-texture] for rendering to texture.
Azimer's HLE Audio v0.56 WIP 1 for sound
with hacktarux-azimer hle rsp for the rsp plugin
and schibo's 1.2 b.o ultraHLE for the rsp sound.

your welcome.

Enjoy.

I just use PJ64 v1.6 and under rom settings in the graphics plugin area just set direct3d clear mode to "once per frame". I havent found any problems at all after doing that, at least not on my system. Have you found a plugin spliced way of playing rogue squadron yet?

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

i heard that direct3d works so i gave a try and i didn't like it because
sometimes it leaves graphics out of the game
so i took a different path.

nope i have not found a way to fix rogue squadron yet
but if Iconoclast finds a way he will.

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

the only problem i have with mupen64 is that it don't any have cheats

 

[Hacktarux]

A few months ago i've worked a little bit on cheats... unfortunately i stopped after i got the drive as a controller cheat in aerogauge. Who needs any other cheat anyway ?

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

nobody needs them...

but they are handy:evil:

at least mupen64 plays starwars better then i have seen on any
other emulator

 

[Bighead]

Ok, I played it, I tested it, I like it.

I tried it out, and I like it. I will add it as another configuration. The reason it appeals to me and probably will appeal to others is because it requires no switching of the direct3d on different stages, and it does show less garbage. Good work, and thanks for the heads up. :santa:

Edit: I altered your configuration just a little bit. I found this will also work, and maybe just a little bit better (at least for me).

Emulator: - Mupen64 0.5.1
Video: - Rice's Video 5.9.9
Audio: - Azimer's HLE v.0.56 WIP 2
RSP: - Hacktarux/Azimer hle rsp plugin
Comments: Apply the below settings.

Current game options in Video Plugin -
Frame Update at: At CI change
N64 Frame Buffer: Basic Framebuffer
Rendering to Texture: Hide Render-to-texture Effects
- Less graphics errors and a bit smoother.

Audio Plugin -
Uncheck Emulate/Simulate AI
- Sound doesn't seem to stutter between cut scenes or stages as much with this unchecked.

The game runs almost as good as the N64 with this configuration, which no other has come this close to me so far. The lines look a little funky during the stage select and mission completed screen, but thats about it.

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

your right!!!!! it works even better now thank you
please update your N64 Emulation Site with that info
thanks again

 

[furio]

Nah, sorry to be a party pooper but, i don't fine it to run that well.

1st off, for some reason we can't play fullscreen quite right.

2nd, when the snowspeeder/Outrider destroys any enemy ships & enters the explosion/smoked zone left by them, it half-freeze for a split sec there, which in PJ64 is not happenning.

But in general the graphics are a little better than PJ64, like if you look far at the horizon, you can see better with your trick. Sounds is much better though.

So for me, i'm better off with PJ64, for general reasons such as:

- I don't like the half-freeze even for a split sec.

-I love cheats, its the weakness of Mupen64, Mupen is a very good Emu but, its that popular because of that.

Take in good consideration that, N64 is old & i've(most people too) done all my(their) games so many times, so now on emulators, i like to beat the hell out of them, all that thanks to the help of cheats :evil:

EDIT: Guys, i've made a mistake, i've used rice 6.1.1 instead of 5.9.9 :blush:
It really works perfectly with 5.9.9

I'll use this with SOTE when i will want a challenge, otherwise i will use PJ64 for the cheats.

P.S can someone made cheat compatible with Mupen64 already!!!
This can make this emu to be the no.1 N64 Emu...

yes it would
:bouncy: :bouncy:

 

[furio]

So... Can someone make this happen?

EDIT: Since its your finding, one of you guys should send this SOTE config to this guy:
http://bmgcl.emuxhaven.net/n64mgcl/N64_Config_List_Page_1.html

He gathers the best configs for each games, just a thought here

EDIT2: lol i didn't realise that its your site Bighead lol
So, i imagine that you will update your site very soon.

Yeah, I was going to make the changes yesterday but got sidetracked. I am going to do it now before I forget. I like this config for Star Wars, I may even beat it for a 100th time with all the challenge points because this config is freekin sweet.

 

[furio]

Yeah, this config is the bomb, for the time being, i'll play SOTE with it, even if it doesn't have the cheat, its so beautiful, i mean the graphics are very clear.

BTW, i really like your site, thanks in the names of the 1000s who you've helped to get their favorite games running the best way it can.

lol, i must be blind, i didn't realise that it was you at 1st, i've been using your site for quite sometimes now & i didn't been here for a while(in the Emu world at large).

 

[Knuckles]

to NES_player4LIFE and furio, please reduce the size of your sig, it shouldn't take more than 1/2 of your posts (normal 2 or 3 lines posts)

 

[furio]

^^^lol done^^^

Also for those of you who want to play with cheats & get the best config along:

Emulator: - 1964 v0.9.9
Video: - Glad64 v0.8 Wonder
Audio: - Azimer's HLE v0.56 WIP 2
RSP: - RSP Emulation Plugin
Comments: Apply the below settings.

Current game options in Video Plugin:
In the Config's page:
Autodetect Microcode: Check
Force Microcode: 4:RSP SW 2.0D EXT (ex. Shadows of the Empire)
Resolution: Choose Yours Resolution

In the Sceen info's Page:
FPS counter: Uncheck
VI/s counter: Uncheck
FPS transparent: Check

Current game options in Audio Plugin:
Uncheck Emulate/Simulate AI
- Sound doesn't seem to stutter between cut scenes or stages as much with this unchecked.

It runs almost like in Mupen64, to be honest i don't see much difference between the two, check it out & give your thoughts. If you like, you can add it to your site BigHead.

P.S. My text style is based on BigHead's config text.

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

ok Knuckles done:blush:

 

[furio]

NES_player4LIFE, have you tried my config yet?

 

[Keith]

furio you need to remove a little more. The star wars sig file size is way too large. I suggest removing it and if not I can do it for you. Thanks for your understanding.

 

[NES_player4LIFE]

to furio
not yet but i will

 

[furio]

Keith, done.

NES_player4LIFE, alright keep me posted.
