I've recently tried to get into the emulator "scene". As it's been around for so many years, a lot of the information I'm finding is very old.
I'm primarily looking to get high resolution graphics working well. There are many different graphic plugins that have been released over the years.
Jabo's Direct3D8 (1.6)
Glide64 ('Napalm WX')
Rice (6.1.1 beta 10)
Mudlord's Rice Video (6.1.4)
Aristotle's Mudlord & Rice Video (6.1.8)
1964Video N64 Video Plugin Community Version (r35)
I believe I've compiled a list of the most recent versions. As I said, much of the information about these is very old so please correct me if I'm wrong. Now, I've tried loading high_res packs with a few of these plugins, and some certainly work better than other. I've found the 1964 Community plugin to work quite well, I believe it is an updated version of the "Aristotle's Mudlord & Rice Video" plugin? I also see Glide64 is recommended quite often, and it seems to be in active development.
1) Which graphic plugin(s) do you recommend today?
2) Is Project64 1.6 still the best emulator, or is 1964 or "Mupen64" a better choice?
I run Windows 7 Ultimate x64 on a 8800GTS, 2.4GHz Core 2 Quad, 4.5GB DDR2 Ram, 1920x1200 Monitor.
Thank you.
