I don't remember open issues in our bug tracker for this game. You may open an issue for this game here: https://github.com/gonetz/GLideN64 and attach save states from the moments, where the clipping bugs appear. I'll check them.gonetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505275620490166369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-2376032957979566432014-12-25T01:22:42.261+07:002014-12-25T01:22:42.261+07:00Hi gonetz, sorry for the off-topic question, but ...Hi gonetz, sorry for the off-topic question, but will this plugin proper emulate Body Harvest ?<br /><br />I really want to finish that game, but in every emulator and plugin that i test occur some weird clipping bugs that makes the game impossible to play, since it's occur in key moments (like crossing a bridge, climbing a stair or enter in a building).<br /><br />Sorry for the confusing english (i'm brazilian), but i'll appreciate if you answer :)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08813942302486928236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-7561921569098624362014-12-14T06:57:34.190+07:002014-12-14T06:57:34.190+07:00It is the most beautiful Christmas present we can ...It is the most beautiful Christmas present we can give to millions people.

Glide64 is full speed to me, except for some fb effects that give some quick pause when activated.

Game changes palette and the same texture looks like a new one. Need to check is it the case for MK64, or the game really uses 100500 different rgba sprites. For CI textures there is a solution: if you don't want to create new HD texture for each palette, you may use palette BMP format. Details can be found somewhere in GlideHQ manuals.gonetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505275620490166369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-73113115411422094032014-12-07T13:35:46.411+07:002014-12-07T13:35:46.411+07:00gonetz. Regarding high resolution texture support....gonetz. Regarding high resolution texture support. With previous plugins the approach for dumping / replacing textures was a bit odd. For example, in Mario Kart 64 where each character is made up of four sets of 32 frames. When dumping textures, there were about 1,200 found. The reason for this appeared to be that the in-game textures had lighting effects applied which the dumping method interpreted as unique textures. So, for example, when going through a tunnel the character is darker and these were identified as all new textures. This resulted in a huge effort to replace any one character properly. I designed a MagiKoopa model that I really want to put in Mario Kart 64 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nE_LOM2C0E) but had major challenges to overcome in replacing 1,200 textures. Is there anyway your approach could dump these textures as just the actual originals and not identify lighting effects as new textures?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887496466428183988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-10667822601583120962014-12-05T19:51:57.989+07:002014-12-05T19:51:57.989+07:00It's okay.

Glide64 is currently 3 times faster than GLideN64 on that demo. I may find an excuse that my plugin is WIP, not optimized etc. But glN64 is also two times slower on that demo than Glide64. glN64 is much simpler than both Glide64 and GLideN64, it does not use wrapper as Glide64 and it still 2 times slower. The only explanation I see is that Glide64 is very optimized plugin :) Currently I'm working on bug fixing, but I keep necessity of optimization in mind.gonetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505275620490166369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-88284732199487973752014-12-05T08:01:27.659+07:002014-12-05T08:01:27.659+07:00Thanks a lot for trying out a widescreen hack.
