Zelda: MM --> low framerate in cutscenes

[Doomulation]

The cutscenes doesn't work in oot either...
but didn't they work in an earlier version?
And I don't think it's releated to motion blur as Glide64 uses a hack (at least in oot) to show them...

Oh and tr64 shows the cutscenes, but no motion blur!

Let me guess, you can't read any thing because it's all black (or to dark)?
To me it sounds like it's your video chipset (man I hate telling people that ), you can try glide64 + evoodoo (evoodoo is to emulate 3DFX hardware), and I don't think it's a hacked ROM (not anymore).
If it's still not OK, take a screenshot of the screen with Jabo's plugin and post it hear.

OoT has motion blur?
And were?

IT should be off :flowers:

with self rendering textures off you don't see the image behind the start menu, ala:

he said it has no motion blur, and as far as i'm aware jabos direct3d 1.5/1.5.1 does show most cutscenes in MM.

i think that the slowdown others might be refering to is the transition from the 1st day to 2nd or 2nd to final, not sure which, but i get a major slowdown then and a black screen until it finishes, could be because of self rendering textures, going to test that.

Edit: Yup its whats causing the slowdown there, and its the 2nd day into the final day it happens. recommendation, turn it off

 

[ScottJC]

heres a screenshot showing how much self rendering textures slows this down.

speaking of self rendering textures, turn them off in banjo-kazooie as well so it doesn't slow down when you get a jigsaw piece.

Zelda Majora's Mask troubles

Hey all. im new to this so I may have done something wrong.
I have the new PJ64 1.5 with the service pack installed and I used goodwindows and good64 to check my rom and it said it was all good.

So, to my problem.

The game runs flawlessly until I hear clock bells and then the screen goes black, the framerate goes from 60 to about 20 and then stutters. the sound stutters too. It doesn't seem to come good from this. It doesn't happen in the same spot but it may have something to do with the 3 days expiring? (even though I'm on the 2nd day when it happens)

Any ideas please?

edit in: i repeatedly pressed the A button and it became the next day and the graphics came back!! woohoo! Would still like to know what happened though?

 

[ScottJC]

had you bothered to look you might've found the other thread in this forum that involves this same issue and how to make it so it doesn't go into crippling slow speeds.

 

[VZey]

I did look but I figured it was a different issue. Plus the stuff in there was too complex for me to understand, I don't know what it means. Remember im new to this

I'll go read it again and then try and figure it out. Thanks anyways

 

[VZey]

Just wondering if someone could give me step by step instructions on how to make it so the framerate doesn't die at midnight.

Thanks

In pj64 While Majoras Mask is running;

Go to the Options menu.

>Configure Graphics Plugin.

When graphics configuration loads up uncheck "hide advanced settings" and click ok, then do

Go to the Options menu.

>Configure Graphics Plugin.

now click the rom settings tab and uncheck self rendering textures.

click OK.

 

[VZey]

thankyou

I found the options and unchecked the box. Didn't fix the problem though Not to worry, it's only minor anyway.

 

[ScottJC]

Well of course it won't stop it from going black because thats an unemulated effect, but it won't drop in framerate now.

 

[VZey]

Oh, ok. I didn't know. I just thought it was odd that I couldn't see the button menu to continue it. IE, it just sits there black until i hit the continue button (A or B, i can't remember now, hehe)

 

[ScottJC]

you don't need to press anything, it will pass on its own, its a known issue, read up on it in PJ64's gamefaq. its in the help menu.

 

[The Seasons]

don't have a problem with the lens of truth either

My only problem is the lens of truth lain:
when i use it and looks at a place (like the invisible goron) then it laggs.. does any one know why??

These are the results of the Glide64+eVooDoo. Below are screenshots of the main menu and everything else.

Jeez why don't people post this stuff in the same thread as the others, this is the second thread i've seen thats opened today.

The reason lies in the fact that you're using Glide64 and evoodoo combined, because evoodoo is a glide wrapper it creates problems of its own, problems in evoodoo might not be there in glide64. (glide64 is for Voodoo cards)

...and because your graphics card is a
Intel 82810E Graphics Controller
It doesn't meet the specs required to run games.

Nothing is perfect, but i'd recommend spending some money and buying a geforce4mx, you can get them cheap these days.

oh and Convert the Bitmaps to Jpegs if you know how, because bitmaps are massive and take ages to download. plus they don't load on a web page.

 

[Diablink]

Yeah? I been meaning to buy a new video card.

How much is it for a Geforce 4MX 440? Shit, I just borrowed my friend's Windows Xp Setup CD and I now updated my Windows Me and a Windows XP. So, I don't know about graphics but my hard drive space sure expanded alil bit.

Currently in my wallet, I got around $45.00 to spend. So hit me back.

PEACE - DIABLINK
