Banjo Tooie No Controller

[sheupe]

I have a problem with Banjo-Tooie. Whenever i start the US Version of the game, it works fine but it says no controller on the start screen. Can someone help me with this?

and it says "R4300i_unhandled_opcode" and "Issues (Core)"

You most likely haven't marked the Player 1 controller as "plugged in" and you also have a bad ROM.

How do i check to see if it is a bad rom?

Your rom isn't necessarily bad. The note I think you're referring to is stating that there are problems with the emulator that may cause the game to crash (or other bugs).

If "R4300i_unhandled_opcode" appears anywhere (either in the Rom Browser or during the game) that almost always means a bad ROM. For the record, my copy does not display that nor "Issues (Core)" and it is a verified good dump AFAIK.

Huh?

Notes in the rom browser exist because they're written in the rdb. If the message appears during emulation, then yes, it's probably a bad rom.

 

[Agozer]

Yes, that's right. Anyway, there's no point dwelling on this any more.

What's a good emulator?

 

[Agozer]

Project64 or 1964. I personally use Project64, but people say that 1964 is a good alternative; both emulator have their good points and faults.

Looks like it's the ROM browser the poster is talking about.

 

[sheupe]

Which are still being updated?

Project64, very slowly. Mupen64 probably.

Oh and just so that you understand one thing: Changing the emulator won't make a bad ROM work better.

[Agozer]

You don't. You "fix" it by deleting it and getting another one - a good one.

Again, your rom is (probably) fine. The problem is with the emulator itself. Other emulators *might* run the game without issues (I honestly don't know; haven't bothered to play Banjo-Tooie).

Update the RDB. the original rdb had this issue.

Ah, right. That should do it. Funny I didn't think of that. :/

 

[sheupe]

What's the latest RDB?

 

[sheupe]

Anyone?
