Hi All,
I've been trying to get mupen64plus running smoothly on my own for a while, but I just can't seem to get it working right. What I have is very bad flicker on a few games. I'm running the latest 1.99 version which I built from source.
The flicker is very strong and makes the games unplayable. I've googled almost every combo of words I can think of to no avail. I've tried turning fog off, ensuring screen updating was set to 1 for the ROM as well. I dabbled with manipulating settings, but honestly I'm not confident in what I'm modifying.
Thinking it could be my ROMs, I installed PJ64 in WINE and the video runs very smoothly there with the same ROM. If it was perfect, I'd just stay with PJ64, but the constant flakiness there (problems loading audio plugins, problems switching between full and windowed) are enough to turn me off of that as well. I'd really just like to get the native emulator running and not have to worry about wine.
Anyway, I'm running Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic on a dual core AMD with integrated HD4200 graphics.
