I don't know what wrong with these Roms and I read on many other sites in the past that they have special problem but I know there are ways around them so if any one can help me out in Any way that would be just awsome.

Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine (U) ( doesn't load fully )
Mia Hamm Soccer 64 (U) ( doesn't load fully )
Star Wars Episode I - Battle for Naboo (E) & (U) ( Doesn't load fully )
Taz Express ( doesn't load fully ) ( Nothing happens at all )
Top Gear Hyper-Bike (U) ( Menu errors ) things appear under the screen out of sight.
Gauntlet Legends 64 ( Constant Flickering ) ( Rarely stops though )
Jeremy McGrath Supercross 2000 ( Track is Black )
Body Harvest ( can't go up ramps and I fall right through the bridges ) I'm surprised I made it to more than half way through the first world.
Vigilante 8 and Vigilante 8 - 2nd Offense ( Menu errors and explosions look like cardboard )

Any help is wanted to fix these problems Please help. :pj64:

Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine, Rogue Squadron and Battle for Naboo do not work on any emulator, regardless of plugins.

As for the rest of the games, I suggest you try them with Glide64.

So Dark Rift, Battlezone - Rise of the Black Dogs and Top Gear Hyper-Bike work with Glide64?

If you have a very high end system, I recommend using ziggy's Z64 plugin for Dark Rift. It runs the game extremely well...

Rogue Squadron is running nicely with 1.6 and 1.7 using the Ziggy LLE plugin.

I used Z64 plugin and the emulator shuts off every time do I need to used an older version or something and Glide 64 made Star Wars Shawdows of the Empire work but Dark Rift doesn't it says something like couldn't find uCode...
and Glide 64 doesn't go fullscreen either ( not a big deal but some info about that would be nice ).

Oh and jumping back to my first post with the list Jeremy McGrath Supercross 2000 wasn't the Rom that I wanted to fix it was Supercross 2000 <the track doesn't show fully>

Now, hold on a second. Space Station Silicon Valley does work. I'm playing it right now, Project64 1.6.

Glide64 doesn't support the graphics methods used in Dark Rift. As I explained, if you have a dual core CPU and a decent video card, I recommend Z64 for Dark Rift.

It does work but everytime I enter the ship it blacks out and the old guy is the only thing I see. That Rom isn't my main concern it's mainly Dark Rift that I want to get working.

So if Z64 doesn't work what are my other options to make Dark Rift work?

is there something else I need installed because it loads the Rom but shuts off every rom I load not just Dark Rift.

In order to get Z64 running you should:
1. make sure that you've downloaded the latest revision (r17)
2. make sure your video card has hardware support for OpenGL 2.0 and you use the latest drivers for it (e.g. older Catalysts won't work). Anything NVidia/ATI with pixel shader 2.0 supports OpenGL 2.0, too. If you use Intel onboard video, it lacks OpenGL 2.0 support afaik.
3. you should use RSP plugin provided within Z64 package, not something else (if you use PJ64 1.6, 1964 or Mupen)
4. in case of PJ64 1.6 you should backup RSP.dll in Plugin directory and after that replace it with aforementioned Z64 RSP plugin renamed to RSP.dll
5. in case of PJ64 1.7 you must not use Z64 RSP plugin. Instead you should use RSP plugin bundled with 1.7. You also must uncheck "Use high-level graphics".
6. never try to load a rom after you played another one (no matter if the latter crashed or you exited normally). Instead exit the whole emulator and start it once again, then play your new rom. It's a known bug.

Yeah to get those games running you have to use LLE graphics, and so far the only one that supports it is Z64. If you're using Project64 1.7 make sure you uncheck "Use High-Level Graphics".

Thanks for the Info about Dark Rift I hope one of those methods works so my sister can stop buggin. :w00t: \:D/

Ok I have some others that are minor but I like to see fixed.


Body Harvest: fall through bridges <some so don't let me fall all the way but others do> and I can't go up ramps even ones that lead into important doors.

Battlezone - Rise of the Black Dogs: with Jabo D3D8 the video is only half full and with other plugins ( that I know of ) I can see through the ground and the audio is horrible.

Top Gear Hyper-Bike: doesn't load fully (it did once I think with 1964 use
Rice 6.0.0 Video plugin but even that had so major grahic issue but atleast it worked then.)

Top Rally Overdrive: doesn't load fully

Taz Express: I'm downloading that right now so I have no clue what wrong with it but I heard in the past that rom had simular issues like the others ones in my list so a heads up would be nice.

I got myself a copy of Project 64 1.7 and it fixed some of the games like:

Battlezone - Rise of the Black Dogs ( Flickering some times )
Dark Rift ( But now it's slow )
Dual heroes USA ( fixed before I got 1.7 )
Star Wars - Rogue Squadron ( But slow )
Top Gear Hyper-Bike ( Menu errors but atleast it runs again ) ( and some color leaks on the tracks )
Top Gear Overdrive ( Screen errors but atleast it works in some way )

Z64 doesn't work at all for me so luckly Project 64 1.7 has a LLE graphic thing that makes up for it now all I need is a fast video plugin that works well with that to make Dark Rift run faster. :down:
