1080 Snowboarding N64 Glitches

[johnnyskullhead]

Hi

running Mupen via Retroarch and when i load 1080 snowboarding i get vertical lines on screen when ever there is text

is it a glitch because i have tried multiple roms

i previously ran project 64 and i don't remember it on that ?

any ideas would be appreciated

Thanks Again

Yeah with N64 you may have to use multiple emulators to get the best performance on a per game basis.

Use the ParaLLEl core for N64, it has better compatibility for most games (other than Acclaim titles, use Mupen for those).

[johnnyskullhead]

is there an option to open with on particular games ?

i know you can use multiple emulators but not sure how

Thanks Again

Add another Retroarch to your emulator list, call it Retroarch N64 or something but point it to your usual Retroarch.exe. Then right click a game and "Launch with" that emu instead.

Oh and of course add the N64 in the assoiciated platform as usual.

I use custom command lines for games that I want to use a different core. Just right click the game you want to change and select edit, then in the emulation tab select Retroarch as the emulator and finally, put the appropriate command line to use the core you want, Here's an example of what I use for Turok 2:

For Mupen64plus copy and paste the following:

-L "cores\mupen64plus_libretro.dll"

For Parallel:

-L "cores\parallel_n64_libretro.dll"


We're stuck to fiddling with settings for N64 games until someone makes an 100% accurate emulator. Don't hold your breath until then.

Yeah that works also, the way I mentioned though means you can bulk edit all the games you want to switch cores on in one go rather than 1 by 1. Whatever works best for you though.

Depending on how many games you have using a different core you may wanna create a 2nd instance of Retroarch in Launchbox called something like "Retroarch Alternate Cores" for example. That way you can have different cores being loaded with it for different platforms and then you can change the emulator for the game much more conveniently than setting the custom command line.
