The way you hope the Rice's Daedalus Plugin to be in further release

[jack]

Faster speed of course! People with low-end comps (like me ) are still searching for a plugin with fast speed!

I'm with you bro. Been playing games like MarioKart without sound for too long now. It puzzles me why I can manage to get 100+FPS with PSX emulation, but can't get decent speed with N64 emus on a P3 533.

Rice, your plugin has inproved tremendously since the last version. I am especially impress with the speed increase. I am also surprised at the improved rendering quality. One instance where your plugin surpass the others in quality is in MarioKart. The Cup selection screen is almost perfectly rendered, unlike other plugins which seen to suffer from a serious texture misalign.

Once again good job with the plugin. If you can improve the speed for Mariokart by 10-15fps, I thank you. Good luck.

i voted for rare games support which leads me onto something that no plugin can do atm and what i'd really like to see...

full ucode support plus ability for the plugin to change ucode (would help fix the dk64 problems) may be problematic since the emu handles it atm, but, maybe it could be implemented or a future version of 1964 could let the gfx plugin handle the ucodes.
(just an idea, i dunno how it all works :blush: )

also, some work on games that exhibit weird screen problems like South Park Rally and Mario Tennis (specifically at the start of a new game where the screen is split diagonally with each character in its own half of the screen and a vs in the middle)

would also love to see Mario Golf and KIgold emulated better, 1964 + jabo's 1.40 run very playably but theres still a fair bit of slow down during matches.

Support for the remaining 2 Star wars games that aren't playable atm would be cool (Rogue Squadron + Battle for Naboo).

some more work on Resident Evil 2 (+try and get the fmvs to work). and last but not least, fix F-zero menus and make the ships shiny.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

you've made excellent progress with the last couple of releases, greatly anticipating future releases.:satisfied:

What! No all of the above.

same here lol where's the all of the above option maaaaaaaaaan

:daedalus:

anyway, I think it would be great if you can show support for game that aren't to popular since most of the plugins foucs on the popluar games (which usualy are the hardest to emulate IMO )

 

[Rice]

No, there is no "All above" option. You are right, popular games are the hardest ones to emulate, and non-popular games are usually the easier ones.

In other thread schibo told that 1964 will be faster, then maybe faster video plugin won't be the first choice.

i don't really know where to begin with Silicon Valley, this game is really buggy, but i've got 5 screenshots anyway!

1st shot, the intro, the robot and the ship 3d models are not there at all:

 

[ScottJC]

White object behind this bit near the start, shouldn't be there

 

[ScottJC]

loads of glitches in this shot, this is an in game shot, the trees edges should be transparent, the 3 dots is supposed to be a sheep, (the 3d models that the sheep uses changes from good to bad alot) other sprite problems too,

Also there should be a bar at the bottom of the screen with health and stuff

 

[ScottJC]

this screen flickers

 

[ScottJC]

the menu at the start is difficult to do anything with because it remains the same no matter what you do

Btw i've got a TV capture card if you want to see how these should look on a real n64, this game is really fun, but overlooked by many, its an excellent platformer with some unique ideas of its own, you've just got to play it!

 

[scotty]

Sayargh, Body Harvest is a ROM I have that has always been difficult to emulate, heck I cant even cross the bridges in Greece, it is that difficult. I am just too lazy to get out my old N64 and play the game. Silicon Vallley, I never did get around to play.
Oh that reminds me, what version of Body Harvest is that, the (U) (!)version?????

 

[scotty]

Sorry remind me to get my glasses fixed, that is silicon Valley, that man with the red green and blue threw me off, even so that is DMA design, and they both have similar problems with the emulation, Ill show you:
The same guy, just of course with the green blob taking him away.

Framebuffer gets my vote. It's the only thing that really needs work doing at the moment.
