Well I do know that N64 was notoriously difficult to code for back in the day, as was Sega Saturn. But what's ironic is that Project Dolphin runs Gamecube and Wii games perfectly - far better than any N64 emulator runs N64 roms. And GCN and Wii are more advanced. But it could be that GCN and Wii were easier to code for.
Yeah, it's probably that the N64 has weird hardware that is difficult to program for and difficult to emulate, much like the Saturn.

The system requirements for Saturn emulators is higher than system requirements for comparable Playstation emulators.

I recommend using the software renderer plugin for graphics. It's not as pretty, but it's more accurate and has fewer issues. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=157548 2016-01-24T20:00:32 -05.00 1337bcc1991 12
No clue about N64 emulators. I have one,just have never used it. Guess I need to. ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=157548 2016-01-23T14:57:17 -05.00 1337bcc1991 12 Originally posted by: insomniakc

As a guy who spent like 3 years doing practically no gaming aside from emulation:

ePSXe is honestly the best, except when you have to swap disks.For that you rename your memory card file, then load your game up in PSXeven to do the disk swap and play to the next savepoint. I find ePSXe has been around longer than most and has the best compatibility. Don't forget to source yourself a PS bios file or none of the emulators will work. JoyToKey is a great utility for plugging in a 3rd party controller and keymapping it. If you have a PS2 btw, they can play burnt games if you do the swap trick. Also, the best PS2 emulator is PCSX2... it's excellent for PS2 title compatibility.

And don't forget to spend a good 90 minutes configuring each emulator, seriously. You'll regret it when your game crashes if you use default settings on some games (MGS1... grr) Special MGS note, play through to the helipad on PSXeven before switching to ePSXe, for some reason the first 3 codec calls can crash the game, but everything else (except disk swap) is smoothe sailing.

Havn't done much emulation for n64 unfortunately, but I have got it working. It's pretty straightforward compared to PSX

I hope this helps

Love me some joy2key.  I used it to map commands for dosbox games that didn't support gamepads, and to add the extra "keyboard only" controls to gamepads in Phantasy Star Online: Blue Burst. Cause, fuck playing games the way people tell you you're supposed to.  ]]> http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=157548 2016-01-23T06:42:43 -05.00 1337bcc1991 12

I've used project 64 before, it was good. ]]>
