Can someone point me in the right direction?

I'm just getting started in n64 emulation. I have no idea why I put it off for so many years, perhaps it has something to do with me getting an actual system last week....anyway. Can someone point me to a website that can give me info about all the different settings for various GPU plugins? What I'm looking for is a guide that can tell me what At VI origin update is and when it should be used - you know all the various settings that can be found in plugins. I did spend an hour or so googling but nothing turned up.

Thanks in advance.

How about the readme's that come with most emulators and plugins?

That's boring...
You have to read to much!

Ummm... I have read the readmes for both 1964 and Project64 before I even installed the emulators. The info I'm looking for isn't covered in any of those readmes - the readmes just cover the basic settings. What I'm looking for is info about the following:

Frame Update At
N64 Frame Buffer
Render to Texture

Normal Blender
Normal Combinder
Force Buffer Clear
Emulate Claer
Fine Texture Mapping
Fast Texture
Disable Blender
Force Depth Compare

Disable Big Textures
Disable Culling
Texture Scale Hack
Faster Loading Tiles
Texture 1 Hack
Primary Depth Hack
Increase TextRect Edge
Disable Texture Caching
TMEM Emulation
Alternative texture size calculation
Enable Texture LOD
N64 Screen Width/Height
Use CI Width and Ratio

What I'm looking for is info about the following:

You can find info on most of those extra settings in the PJ64 manual under:

Configuration > Plugins (default plugins) > Video > Advanced Tab + Rom settings Tab.

Note: It is generally recommended that you do not touch these since the RDB file has the best settings stored in it.

Ah okay. I didn't know that the settings were auto configured for every ROM. Thanks.
