Can anyone help with Emulating on a slowish sytem?

[felipéxavier]

hy guys, can anyone help me emulate on a Pentium 2 350mhz with a Voodoo 3 3000. I have tried the 3 UltraHLE modified emulators and also Corn, but either a game doesn't work, or i get misalignied textures. I get gfx glitches and badly misaligned gfx with Super Mario 64, to which i thought was one game that could be emulated close to perfect, so i think i am doing something wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Well, while it's not impossible to emulate the N64 on those specs, it is pretty difficult. On my 400mhz-Voodoo Banshee combo I was able to use 1964 with either Jabo's D3D plugins or Glide64--albeit without sound--and still get passable framerates in the 15-30 fps range, depending on the game. Glide64+1964 is probably your best bet though.

slowish

I'm using Project 64 & 1964 on a P3 500 with the latest reccommended plugings by default.

1964 using Jabo's plugins seem to have excellent graphic quality whilst most games play ok (med frame rates)

P64, a little faster than 1964 - probably due to plugins.

Most other emus were way too slow or even crashed.
Try also disabling unrequired system services.
For gameplay, I disable absolutely everything, including the net - only run required services for functionality - this speeds things up quite a bit under Win XP
(for security - unplug your modem when doing this)

hope this helps.

corn

of course you can only play like 10 roms with it, but hey, it's FLAWLESS in mario64..

1964+glide64 on a voodoo card should be quite fast. And if you don't use the rsp or the hle rsp and hle sound it *might* just work
