MArio KArt: all plug-ins
Mario64 : Direct 64 or rice Video 5.6.0
All mario partys: try with rice video 5.6.0

 

[simsx_blade]

ok i use rice 5.6.0 with mario kart but it's going pretty slow exspecially on the big levels.
mario 64 is also a bit sluggish
with mario party when i use rice with that the text is all yellow and hard to read plus it goes slow?

what rom settings should i use?

Slow? Wow it shouldn't be slow on your system. At the bottom of the emulator window it should say 60VI/s if it's running at full speed. What do you get when playing Mario Kart or Mario 64? Also have you tried in full screen and windowed mode to see if the speed seems the same both ways? I find Rice's Video plugin varies from system to system, might want to give Jabo's Video plugin a try to see if the plugin is the issue.

when i use jabo on 1964 i get NO sound. it doesn't say what speed it is running at the bottom.

Are you sure you're changing the right plugin? Jabo has plugins for audio, video and input. If you change the audio plugin to Jabo's you will not get sound unless you use an external RSP plugin with it like the one that comes with PJ64.

huh??

 

[simsx_blade]

ok i've got all these games working good. except for donkey kong 64 it refuses to work no matter what plugin i use! i hope it will be playable in the next release of 1964.

I was replying to his post above me about him getting no sound when using Jabo's plugin. Since they were talking of trying different video plugins I assumed he was trying to use Jabo's video plugin and may have been changing the audio plugin instead.

 

[simsx_blade]

no when i use jabos sound plugin i get no sound at all. i have to use schibos' it works however there is a bit of static in the sound on all games.

To get Jabo's sound to work you need to copy the RSP.dll from your pj64 plugin directory to your 1964 plugin directory and then select it in the Default RSP emulation. For DK64 I believe that Rice's plugin works the best, but you need to set the counter factor to a different setting, but I can't remember the exact settings but if you search the forum then you should find numerous threads about getting dk64 working.

 

[simsx_blade]

how do i set it as the default rsp emulation? i copied the dll to plugins.

Go to PLugins>change plug-ins,on the bottom you find a box to change the rsp plug-in

 

[riles9262]

And for dk64, for me, you have to run it in window mode for it to run good. It is very glitchy in full screen.
