Lordmonkus Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 I think the reasoning is the hardware needed to emulate it properly. Other systems of the same era have similar emulation issues. Dreamcast and Playstation 2 are far from what I personally would call a "good" state. They are in "ok" states in that some games play extremely well while others have major problems and the emulators themselves are very "hacky". Right now the only N64 emulators that look like they could have some potential to get to a "good" state is Cen64 and the Vulkan powered Retroarch core paraLLel which is based on Mupen but is going to be very different. Because Cen64 and paraLLel take a more low level emulation approach they have more room to grow as time goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwar Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Dreamcast and ps2, I dont have any problems with those , but n64 is much much less than ok, i think they just abandoned the project Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted August 23, 2016 Author Share Posted August 23, 2016 They are in similar states, it just depends on the games you actually play. Some games play very well and others show the flaws horribly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Lordmonkus what do you think of this, is it any better ? http://www.emucr.com/2016/09/project64-git-20160918.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Project 64 is decent and depending on the game its the better emulator. Like I have been saying about N64 emulation, it's not a case of which is the best emulator, it's which emulator is the least worse and best for which game or games you want to play.

djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 sorry I didnt mean the emulator in general, I meant to say these latest releases... have they improve it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Without knowing the actual build change logs it is impossible to know exactly what's different but I would say those "nightly" builds on EmuCR aren't any really difference compared to the official builds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 do you know any good 3ds emulator? and have you tried Citra? I m only interested in 1 game, luigis mansion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Citra is the only 3DS emulator that I am aware of and if you get an unofficial build which aren't freely distributed it is in a semi usable state. It's still very development for the emulator and games that work vs not work vary. Luigis Mansion 2 just crashes on the build I have some other games run just fine.

djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) I saw a video on youtube, and it looked complicated to make it run .. I also heard latest build make games run much better Edited September 20, 2016 by djwar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Getting CItra to run is actually quite easy, it's finding the decrypted roms that is the hard part and the official builds are not what I would consider in a usable state yet.

djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Whats the difference of using citra.exe and critra.qt ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 20, 2016 Author Share Posted September 20, 2016 Hmmm, couldn't tell you honestly. Citra is one of those emulators I have not really followed too closely because of how early it is in development. Not much point in worrying about it til it gets more developed. PS3 and Xbox360 emulation is in the same boat for me, too early to even worry about yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djwar Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Yeah me neither ...Im mostly into old school games ...

ckp Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Well, I tried it thanks to your tutorial! Gauntlet Legends looked much better than in the other emulators, but shortly after starting, the emulator crashed on my Win10 x64 box. Do you set yours to run in Win 7 compatibility mode or anything like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted November 1, 2016 Author Share Posted November 1, 2016 Nope. I don't know if there are problems with 10 or not. I use Windows 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckp Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Bummer, that didn't help. Crashes in same exact place in the beginning. Time to dig I suppose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
