Resident evil 2 video buggin

[ssnake42069]

Ok i was originally looking for a video plugin for resident evil 2 cuz jabos didnt work correctly. well i found it thanx to a search of the pj64 forums clements suggested (in another topic) daedalus. so i downloaded and used it. i wanted to change the resolution in game, but the box was unselectable. so i exited, and changed rez in the menu, and went back in game, this is what happened:

Its high quality PNG (imageshack the image hosting site converts all images to png, but keeps the quality, this image used to be BMP)

In case you didnt know, thats the screen that says Expansion Pack Found.

wierd aint it. well when i got to the main menu (i figured i could play like this), i selected new game (it still showed menus vaguely.) got into a new game and it went all wierd. the background image was just like the one i showed you. the enemies were still their, when i walk its like its showing a trail of me walking (like in zelda oot when its slow motion it shows when ur falling in a sequence it shows you falling in slow mo) wierd.....

i had to decrease the size by 30 pixels height and width in order to host it on Imageshack, the free image hosting site becuz it was 15 kb too large.

Next time just save it as a jpeg as it's a lot quicker.

Anyway Glide64 0.8 is what you want

 

[ssnake42069]

it freezes whenever i try to open a rom with glide. besides there is no uCode for RE2....

 

[snesmaster40]

Eh? Could you explain what you meant in the last bit

For RE2 you can try Project64 1.6 + Glide64 0.8 Wonder + Azimer's HLE Audio v.0.56 WIP2 + Zeckensack's Glide Wrapper.

With this configuration you should be able to play with very good graphics and to hear the voices (I use to hear a "rewind" sound effect too...)

Maybe your intel graphics controller is the problem, I don't know.

im using jabos and its smooshed to like half the screen. i can barely see things. its hard to play.

 

[Pantuflo]

its hard to play.

And it will be harder if you continue changing plugins...

This game with Jabo's doesn't have those problems for me... But with my graphics card I have other type of problems that people with "high-end nvidia's and ati's" doesn't. These plugins use "Direct 3D" functions that are usually bad (or not) implemented in Intel graphic controllers and cheap g. card models (last jabo's plugin is an example). For me, the problems come with "D3D 8" and following, i.e. I can't use Direct64 plugin.

The problem may be another, do other games work well for you with the same plugin? And what about glide64?

In addition, this game is not perfectly emulated yet (I think Glide64 does it best), so another problem to add to the list.

i have installed Zeckensack's Glide Wrapper. But i also have Hacktarux's glide3x wrapper in the Project 64 directory. Should i delete it or does Zeckensack's overwrite it?

Im confused!

Thanks all.

 

[snesmaster40]

Delete one of them, however Zeckensack's one only plays in full screen (I think)

 

[Pantuflo]

With Zeckensack's Glide Wrapper installed, you will have a Glide3x.dll in your "Windows" dir (e.g. "C:\WINDOWS").

I have renamed my Glide3x.dll (Hacktarux's one in Pj64 dir.) into "Glide3x.dll.beforezeck" (you can choose ".backup" too ), because H.'s seems to be more stable... if you don't like Zeckensack's full screen, you can recover the old wrapper easily.

Both wrappers are in development, I don't know who will be "the winner" in the future... (you can read a lot of rumours in other threads, future of glide64 included...)

This glide wrapper (Zeck.'s) only works in full screen, but I can see better effects in some games, e.g. "RE2" or "Earthworm Jim 3D". For a better play with Project64 you should go into Start Menu->All programs->Glide Wrapper->Configurator and there choose "Application specific ov.", select "Project 64" and click OK.
(Maybe this is also written in some "readme.txt"...).

With this configuration, you can play with Project64 and stop playing with F12 :huh: . Another config., another emulator and maybe a crash can occur with zeckensack's wrapper when stopping emulation (Ctrl+Alt+Del... to close).

OK, have you understood something? I think I will never be a good readme writer...

 

[HShadow]

Thanks for that. The combination of the Wonder plugin and that new Glide program, my N64 games have never looked better! But, yes, it does crash more. But when it works!...... WOW

Here is a new Version from Glide, so you can play Resident Evil 2 with full speed and no sound errors.....
