I'd remembered about the depth compare emulation before but wasn't quite sure what it would be used for so probably my memory was a bit foggy.<br />Regarding PJ64 I've seen forum threads and webpages which say you'd have to have these or those older versions of the plugins in order to get something to work in it. But I'd rather not spend the time tracking them down and testing their performances. It's just a hobby after all.Egon L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12707897151136775865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-66850704701207210282015-05-28T23:41:51.591+07:002015-05-28T23:41:51.591+07:00You need to set "N64 depth compare emulation&...You need to set "N64 depth compare emulation" option for Extreme-G.

I've been trying to add in plugins to either of my Project64 2.2.0.3 (The latest official release from the PJ64 team) or the latest M64Py frontend with the Mupen64Plus core (Note to users, just download the latest M64Py build from emucr.com as it'll contain the latest Mupen64Plus core anyway - in this case version 2.5.). And I've been tweaking things here and there yesterday and today!<br />I had to google search 'PJ64 rogue squadron' and found this useful guide: http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/Recommended_N64_Plugins.<br /><br />The page above also led me to a forum at http://www.emutalk.net/forums/showforum.php?f=31 where I researched several plugins such as the accurate but old z64 RSP plugin, Shunyuan's HLE audio plugin and angrylion's RDP (For Video) plugin with OpenGL maintained by Iconoclast/HatCat. But I couldn't find the CXD4 plugin also from HatCat.<br /><br />So I was using the z64 RSP plugin along with GLideN64 (Yours truly!) in PJ64 and Rogue Squadron was working and displaying everything correctly but it was way slow - depending on settings being used it was 12 VI/s or 20-22 VI/s.I also attempted to boot into Battle for Naboo but it was showing a lot of perspective or geometry rendering errors, so it was unplayable, though I could move around just by looking at the minimap!<br /><br />Then after a while I tried the M64Py frontend emulator and used cxd4-sse3 plus your GLideN64. Apparently both hard to solve Star Wars games booted up nicely and all graphics rendered correctly. Also the framerate seemed to be a bit smoother - like it might be twice as fast as in PJ64, though I wish it'd show a framerate counter. The hit zones in RS were much more responsive, flying was a bit slicker. Of course the small random flickering errors, too, but not much to distract me; it mostly happened in the mission room. The background scene in the start menu and sometimes in the first level of Battle for Naboo there were geometry rendering errors; but most of it and the whole 2nd level were stable. Framerate was similar, but it was easier to play here.<br /><br />So I was slightly disappointed by the choppy framerates then I thought to tweak the RSP plugins and after some steps chose the lower-end cxd4-sse2 plugin. And much to my amazement both Star Wars games as well as Star Wars Racer (which I tested with the other plugins above) all ran at smooth framerates! Yes!<br />My PC is a cheap i5-2500 CPU I think and Nvidia GeForce 750Ti and 8GB of RAM. So you don't need an expensive rig to be able to run N64 games well!<br /><br />I gasp in amazement as the video plugin you've made has blown the N64 emulation scene out of the water and moves it a few dials after 15 years of waiting for the 'perfect N64 emulator'! I am also surprised by Mupen64Plus 2.5 + M64Py frontend - I think it is set up well for the future while Project64, even now, ends up looking more of a dead-end!Egon L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12707897151136775865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-34220333141924328862015-05-25T06:46:54.869+07:002015-05-25T06:46:54.869+07:00you guys I am getting a black screen on this plugi...you guys I am getting a black screen on this plugin I have Ati mobility radeon hd 4200 series I checked and I have a OpenGL version 6.4 and some other numbers anyways its higher than 3.3 And I am trying to play OoT djipi 2014 texture pack so why the black screen can any of you guys help me thanks ;) And before you guys say if my drivers is up to date yes it is ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03652101786852156551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-90623353422608504802015-05-25T00:56:17.502+07:002015-05-25T00:56:17.502+07:00I show you these in-game pictures because I had no...I show you these in-game pictures because I had no problems to go in-game. Star Wars: Rogue Squadron and SW: Battle for Naboo work only in LLE mode. You need to use proper RDP plugin to get in-game. Emulator's version also important. Some emulators can't boot these games even with proper RDP plugin, but I don't remember which ones.gonetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505275620490166369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-4687214582267495572015-05-24T01:29:12.515+07:002015-05-24T01:29:12.515+07:00Your latest GLideN64 plugin has fixed the graphica...Your latest GLideN64 plugin has fixed the graphical glitch(es) in the Conker game when I tested it a bit. But so far both Star Wars: Rogue Squadron and SW: Battle for Naboo are unable to boot in - they just either freeze or not boot at all! Are these the problems with the N64 emulators currently and not the fault of your plugins? I thought that these games would work, because you've demonstrated several screenshots of each game when promoting your new plugin before release. This seemed misleading. If you knew that these games wouldn't be working then why did you bother showing these in-game pictures?Egon L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12707897151136775865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3684028292581698421.post-4868531862119141442015-05-20T16:46:46.645+07:002015-05-20T16:46:46.645+07:00wow thanks gonetz.
