Zelda problems

[George Kaplan]

Hi!
I´m new in this board, hope you guys could help me
I´ve got some problems with the Zelda games:

-Zelda Oot:The game looks perfect: textures, water, lights, pre-rendered backgrounds, even the menu is great (Althoug it takes a bit long to load) BUT there is a strange problem, Link and some Kokiris wear a white dress. Not the entire character, only the dress¿¿??. It´s not the rom fault cause I´ve tested some diferent roms.
I´m in the Deku tree now and i haven´t miss anything but the strange problem.

-Zelda Mmask:Looks great too but the sky is always red (Except with the D3D6 plugin) and the sound is jerky when the city is too much crowed.
Link is green so no problem with the dressing here.

I know the Matrox is not a good card for Pj64 but perhaps some problems are fixable. A lot of games are very playable even with the card fact. I´ve the latest drivers.
Help me, please!

My System:
Pentium 4 1,7ghz
256 SDRAM
Matrox G400 32
Soundblaster 128 Value

I have the two Zelda roms.

Heres the bug with Zelda Oot:

I believe that is a common problem with the Matrox G400 w/PJ64.
From what I understand, Jabo has a NVidia card so he wrote his plugin to work flawlessly with NVidia cards.

And as for the sound, it's quite common when the emulator has to do much. This is apparent in many games such as Banjo-Kazooie, Zelda, Mario 64. Although it comes as a surprise with your 1.7 Ghz processor, I've seen stranger things.. :blush:

nVidia-based cards are the future. I got my Hercules GF2 64 card 16 months ago, and it's still cutting edge, with a few tweaks..

The starnge thing comes now...
Link in Majoras Mask is green althoug the sky is bad:
I hate Matrox

 

[Zombie9920]

The sky on yours looks fine, but the juggling men are the wrong color.

George Kaplan, that's the same how it looked on my Voodoo 3

The Matrox G400 video card appears to have the same issues that the Voodoo 3
has. I guess you have to get a GeForce 2 MX, TNT 2 or ATI Radeon. Sorry, I guess you have to put up with that issue just like when I was using my Voodoo 3.:hrm:

I believe that is a common problem with the Matrox G400 w/PJ64.
From what I understand, Jabo has a NVidia card so he wrote his plugin to work flawlessly with NVidia cards.

Actually, he wrote the plugin to a certain specification.

The fact that only a few cards follow it is... coincidental He used what made the gfx look the best.

As a result, for PJ64, you'll want either a Geforce 1 or higher or a Radeon or higher for near flawless graphics. That's right, Jabo's graphic plugin isn't perfect. No plugin can ever be as a matter of fact, every API has it's limits.
