feedback for v1.5 final release

[nkarafo]

Thank you very much for this new version of the world's best N64 emulator!

Except from some minor problems many games seem to work very good.

Thank you again!!

Ok, I'm still looking into it, but so far I can't get Mario Kart 64 to work on my geforce 2 with 40.41 drivers, but it works on my geforce 4 with the same settings and same drivers. Err, by not work I mean, there are no 3d graphics, only 2d.

I'm still investigating but I was wondering if anyone else is have this problem?

Ok, I just found that I have the same problem with 1080 snowboarding. No 3d graphics on gf2. 3d graphics ok on gf4.

Something else I'd like to mention about the 40.41 drivers. Once in pj64 1.4 yesterday, and now in pj64 1.5 final today, I got an error where I think I ran out of video memory on my 128MB gf4. My desktop wallpaper disappeared and pj64 crashed saying something about it running out of memory. Looks like I'm going to have to start trying older drivers.

I just tested it out with my tnt2, works beautifully. I just beat toad's ass too!!! Have you tried using any other plugins?

Re: the new pj...

i cannot believe how good 1.5 is. it's like you were having good sex all along, and now you've discovered "the orgasm".

friggin awesome dudes.

oh yeah, and sk8, ANY athlon will run circles around coppermines.

honestly in my experience any athlon at all runs circles around an even remotely comparable price/mhz pentium derivative. i don't know why anyone buys intel anymore, but hey, it's nice to have the competition between them, eh?

i'm still completely in shock over 1.5. i'll post more maybe when i realize what's really going on. like when i wake up and this is all a dream.

rhy

/edit oh yeah, gauntlet legends still flickers and has audio probs, but it is playable now. good job!

P4 has got alot of strong points, you have to remember that it is the currently fastest processor available (P4 2.8 ghz vs Athlong XP 2600B), I understand that AMD kickes Intel in FPU, but P4 is alot more stable than the Athlon XP.

 

[Kritikal]

Oh crap, it must be the 40.41 drivers on my gf2. I just tried jabos d3d6 1.4 with pj64 1.5 and got no 3d in Mario Kart. Then I tried jabos d3d6 1.4 with pj64 1.4 and got no 3d also.

Oh, and tr64 ogl plugin still works fine with Mario Kart in pj64 1.4 and 1.5.

tooie uses an encryption method for the code .. it has a key and needs the corresponding decryption key .. there is some forumla to work that out .. instead I worked out all the values that is used in the game with useing a real banjoo tooie cart .. that is in a file you can look at all the codes .. pif2.dat

/me gives the whole pj64 team a high five and a couple of bunnies :bunny: ........ wha wha you don like bunnies? lain2: j64:

seriously though good freakin job man!! :thumbsup:

 

[sk8bloke22]

yeh p4's are probably the fastest processor available now. ive read a bit about this on some forums. but im sure an athlon XP 2000 will do fine considering how cheap i got it. anywayz away, i would advise anyone with the new 40.41 drivers, to uninstall them and all previous detonators, and then reinstall them. they're supposed to be installed without the presence of older drivers. i believe there are a few utilitys on the net that completely uninstall all detonator files, allowing u to do a clean install.

 

[ScottJC]

wow, wasn't expecting the new project 64 before the new 1964, wasn't expecting it at all

Banjo-tooie works great!

Although, Wetrix now runs waaay too fast to be playable, i think i'll go back to tweak settings a bit

 

[Kritikal]

I uninstalled 40.41 and reinstalled 30.82 and mario kart and 1080 work again on my gf2.

I don't know where I would find one of those detenator uninstaller utilities. If someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate.

 

[2bzy4ne1]

I wouldn't recommend using the 40.41 drivers. I've been told that it sacrifices image quality for speed plus i've been seeing a lot of messages on emutalk from people that are having trouble with them.

 

[jvolel]

missing or courpt file?? ahh crap... also looks like alot of the games that have had problems that where never corrected have been corrected (must check goemon mystical ninja 1, (for the camera problem, and part 2 for the black background problem on the areas where you have to swim) but i mean heck winback's gray screen thing was finally fixed!!! LOL

 

[jvolel]

uh oh
unable to detect micromode settings??

Micromode id $426EA66D
Rom Blask Corps (the ! u version)
using default settings something i did wrong?

p3 933 pc133 512 ram
geforce 2 gts 32mb
direct x 8.1
win me
win me nvida driver 23.11

 

[DarkKnight38]

WWF No Mercy lookin great

Hey guys awesome job. When I first fired up WWF: No Mercy, my jaw dropped. Loving it . Until I started championship mode, and saw the text of the wrestlers is still pitch black. Oh well, can't have it all, now can we? If there is any option that I could set to see the text, please enlighten me. If not, oh well, great job. Thanks for the effort guys, and keep up the great work.

IT'S IMPOOOOSSIBLE!!!!!

this morning i switched on intenet at work, and i saw the latest pj 1.5: WWWow,i said.

i dloaded and run it on a p3 500 and tried Banjo Tooie, everything was ok.

at lunch time, i got home, dloaded pj, ready to play BT on my Athlon xp 1700, Radeon 8500, 512 mb DDr: but when i tried to start the pj .exe, suddenly i got 2 times the same message " Failed to allocate memory"

i have to say that every version of pj run fine on it, even the 1.5 b1, but this latest release gives me this error, then nothing appears, no menù, nothing at all.

i'm VERY disappointed by this , if someone has a clue regarding this error or something helpful,please contact me thx.

for now,i'll keep on playing at pj 1.5 b1, the version that actually works for me.....
