horrible innitialization bug with PSX Controller

Already is compatible. All joypads that work with PC works with the plugin.

Actually, there's a bug, where the 3rd axis (generated by the touch sensitive buttons)
goes from one extremity to the other, during the initialization process, which causes the plugin to register axis3+ as a keystroke, when asked to press a desired key.
the only way arround it, is to tweek w/ the control panel for the mayflash adapter,press both touch sensitive buttons half-way, to zero out the access, then configure all the other keys, then chance the mapped touch-sensitive buttons, to map the last 2 keys.

a plugin designed for dual-shock would be fabulous.

Dinput, isn't actually designed to handle pressure sensor buttons.. so thats the real reason for the problem

Multiple controller settings for each player


...because sometimes when all my USB slots are in use and i cant use my controller, it would be nice to use the keyboard and not switch all the buttons to the keys, then back to the controller when i can use it again



just a though!







EDIT: lol nvm i just found out what the Load/Save Profile was for! blaaa

Alright, I think I've finally got something good. I think that, everytime you enable the speed limiter, it automatically syncs game to audio in Jabo's DirectSound, and everytime you disable the speed limiter, it automatically turns it off. This way, you don't have to disable the option to sync the game to the audio in the audio plugin configuration and THEN disable the speed limiter for it to take effect.

I am aware that, if this suggestion were applied, this could cause problems for games like TWINE 007. The moment you press that F4 key, you've just hanged the emulator, or at least until you press it again. That's why, I think Jabo's DirectSound should have an INI configuration file, telling the plugin which games are safe to do this sort of thing and which aren't. It would be easier to just configure only the games that aren't just to tell the plugin which games not to allow audio-synching, imo.

Doesn't accomplish much, but hey, saves a few seconds of the user's time.

I doubt... Are you sure?
If so, enable speed limiter with any turok game should freeze the game

That doesn't mean it doesn't work - because it does. But it doesn't work flawlessly, which I didn't claim.

BETTER WIDESCREEN SUPPORT!!!

All my games look pretty streched at 1440x900 except majora's mask and jet force gemini. Also, better handling at framebuffer emulation with newer nvidia cards (such as link turning in a white block in the menu with jabo's d3d8).

Dinput doesn't even support pressure sensitive buttons, theres to many axis to read then

Xinput does though.

Not if the INI configuration tells it not to enable the Sync Game to Audio option at the same time when the speed limiter is enabled. That's why I suggested an INI configuration.

is project64 netplay goin to be like ZSNESW?

i hope there no lag on it ping from different countries netplay. like project64k hate that one dont work.

 

[squall_leonhart]

i hope not

A frame skip opition.
Like in 1964 (but better please <) where you can skip some frames so in situations when the fps drops you won't notice that much.
Pete's PSX plugin has this feature and it works very well, you almost can't notice when frames are being skipped.

 

[Iconoclast]

Frame skipping is a feature that is a part of the graphics plugin, not the emulator. 1964 doesn't have this option, but its default graphics plugin, Rice's Daedalus 5.2.0, does. If you used that on Project64, you'd have a frame skip option there, too. It's just the plugin.

Am I wrong, though? Can you have a frame skip feature built into the emulator?

 

[Doomulation]

I suppose it's possible, but from a design perspective, perhaps it might be better to do it in the graphics plugin. Frame skip works by dropping the number of frames to render (and the graphics data is handled by the graphics plugin, while the core processes the opcodes, which cannot be skipped).

MAC compatibily

My entire school recently aquired MACs but we can't find any good emulators for them

 

[squall_leonhart]

Project64 is Windows Only, there are no plans at this time or possibly ever to port it to mac

 

[Penguins]

Ideas:

Rom Overdump Fix
Buttons like Mupen64 or 1964
Hires Dump/Load
Frame Skip
7zip Load support (Save in .7z and load rom save state and rom from .7z)
4x Anisotropic filtering
1/2 texture sizing
RSP plugin options

 

[Agozer]

Rom Overdump Fix

What for? Rom hacking?

Hires Dump/Load

Already planned for the next Jabo's plugin, if I'm not mistaken.

4x Anisotropic filtering

Why would you possibly need that when Jabo's Direct3D8 plugin supports up to 16X? Besides, graphics settings are graphics plugin-based, not directly tied to the emulator.

 

[Penguins]

Overdump: I don't feel like explaining it. Go here

Hires: I know, just felt like saying it...

4x: ??? Mine only goes to 4, and I know that it's not tied to the emulatior (the plugins are part of 1.7 too) And yes, i am using Jabo Directx3D8 1.6
