anyone figured out how stable it is, or isn't? Got any advice for settings? anything? people were begging for support for this game and since v1.5 release i've heard squat (not wanting to start that up again or anything, but still, need to know the status).

Mmmmm....Beeeeerrrr
the audio in the game sounds best with Azimer's audio plugin. (forgot which version worked best) Jabo's directsound plugin makes the whole game freeze for me sometimes. It's random so I can't say where it will freeze.

It run like HELL
Well, something wrong in this game. The opening movie is dark like hell, those characters speaking like demon (You can't heard what they're talking about), you can see your characters thru' the cars.....

dont see the point of running a game on PJ64 that most ppl own on psx anyways..... why not run the psx version on epsxe? Just as good and even faster

U can hear the characters speaking with Azimer's audio version 0.40 beta2 (it's not perfect but much more better than with Jabo's Direct Sound 1.5). I have finished the game and it never crashed (I use Rice's RSP wich is packaged with his plugin).

the sound was like on The World is Not Enough .
It didnt crash with Rice's RSP plugin, but went really really slow at times (kinda like on CBFD in 1.3)

There are four major problems:
1. z-buffer [playable, and this can become a 'cheat' where you can actually see the monster before you enter a room or corner... ]
2. sound (during speaking) [playable but annoying]
3. the cut-scene crash oftenly (even with Rice's plugin, esp. during Claire's scene) [not playable, I think this is the cause of 'unstable']
4. the movies are all gone, I can't even see the endling... :'( [playable but feel sucks...]

Have to agree there, I don't think it's worth emulating in pj64.

er hello? there's a PC version?

that's why i couldn't see what the fuss was about, i just want to know how will it works or doesn't in PJ64, which is a seperate subject.. thanks Maximus and others. The RSP may be the cause of the instability (or not) but Rice's shouldn't help, he hides missing opcodes, Jabo actually implemented them, and they both validate task lists... dunno... any more observations RE different plugins and settings appreciated.

surely the whole point of emulation is to emulate the software....this isnt just about playing games. i dont actually play hardly any, if any, of the 200 roms that i own. the question wasnt why doesnt pj64 run resident evil II? or 'i wanna play resident evil II for free', otherwise i would agree with u.

yep i agree totally sk8bloke :) ur always rite as usual :) and the n64 version is hardly any different to the psx version so why not? I just feel its a bit buggy 2 emulate at the mo

Who can upload a screenshot or two to show that the movies of RE2 are running? I've tried everything to make it work on my sysyem but I just got a black screen with cracky sound so I ready need some proof that the movies are running. And I wat to add one problem in RE2 that the "option" screen is messed up or go black.

I was having the same problems when I had a 950 Duron, as soon as I upgraded to Athlon 1.53 GHz a lot of the problems went away.... The only movie that didn't play was when the Licker first showed up...

Where can I find ver. .40 beta 2? I could only find Azimer's Audio HLE v0.20(a) Pre-Release on apollo's website which I linked from smiff's site. Much appreciated.
