Nintendo 64

[paper orchid]

I'm gonna need to replay this again

[shrewd peak]

smash intro looking great so far

[fair stump]

WWF Wrestlemania 2000 now boots with that stub build

[paper orchid]

I don't imagine any of the slowdown I ran into in some areas was fixed but I'm gonna check

[brisk drum]

Oh my god where’s the build ?

[heady mason]

Smash Bros can run now?

[wanton sun]

there is no change that could fix any serious slowdown

[fair stump]

Mario Golf boots now

[paper orchid]

Right, figured as much, but I'm still gonna replay it lmao

[drowsy lantern]

What about WCW/NWO Revenge?

[wanton sun]

be aware that this build is a big hack. Don't update the spreadsheet or tell your friends yet. Will do it properly this weekend

[paper orchid]

And here I was about to update the spreadsheet. I'll keep that in mind then

[mild ether]

Your secret is mine alone.

[paper orchid]

Still, this looks excellent

[fair stump]

Yeah, I wasn't going to update the sheet. Just cool to see it work so quick 😄

[devout leaf]

Nothing bad. Just some routine stuff.

[fair stump]

Boots now

[lone geyser]

C is probably fine but having a more general understanding of coding would also help and you'll gain that faster with a language like Python. But you'd need to go back and learn C after either way, there's a lot of stuff that doesn't really come up in Python

[devout leaf]

Thanks for getting the reference lol

[heady mason]

how do we get this version then?

[wanton sun]

it's here in the channel, scroll up a tiny bit

[storm void]

OOT Master quest loads 😮

[brisk drum]

Scroll up

[shrewd peak]

smash works great, cant find anything weird so far

[fair stump]

Seems like it's very playable

[heady mason]

Oh, right. How could I have missed that 😄

[paper orchid]

Wait hold up, is this different from the one in #test-builds

[brisk drum]

Well fuck practicing street fighter vi for the locals

[daring meteor]

Is that why the guy who hacked it hacked it?

[brisk drum]

N64 time

[zealous hull]

no worries! I'm happy either way. 🙂

[daring meteor]

It uses a hack to ply SRAM games

[brisk drum]

Dang I knew sram was gonna get a lot of things booting .. I could feel it in my gut

[mild ether]

I will take a look at Python this weekend. Thanks for the thought.

[storm void]

It's the one ripped from the GameCube special edition

[wanton sun]

indeed, thanks for testing 🙂

[paper orchid]

Right, so in that case @wanton sun is the stuff in #test-builds still worth updating the sheet for?

[wanton sun]

yes

[tepid gorge]

Smash ❤️

[paper orchid]

In that case I have something to do during a work call lmao

[carmine kettle]

ocarina of time doesnt work but OOT Master quest loads

[slate sundial]

ummmmmm ok, so FZero runs at a locked 60 on the sramstub core 🥹

[paper orchid]

Notes updated, I'll do a full playthrough later today/tonight

Just to make sure I'm not missing anything

@languid dune

[daring meteor]

SRAM games

[paper orchid]

hey!

[brisk drum]

@cerulean elk ROBERT JUST BLESSED US WITH SRAM !

[carmine kettle]

master quest? load but not the regular

[fair stump]

Ogre battle 64 boots

[daring meteor]

SRAM (fake)

[wanton sun]

yes master quest

it's only a bad preview. If the game really depends on saving, it will crash

[tepid gorge]

I'm surprised Yoshi's Story isn't one of the first games to work, you would think it's simple being 2D

[daring meteor]

Yoshis story works it just looks really weird

[tepid gorge]

I know, but levels are unplayable because of the black backgrounds and sprite trailing

Maybe Dan Salvato could play it without issues

[cerulean elk]

Lol oh boy

[woven olive]

WWF No Mercy playable in SRAM stub. Not full speed but playable.

[storm void]

Pretty!

[fair stump]

New frozen spooky face meme just dropped

[safe robin]

I feel like Mario 64 and wave race is crashing a lot since the fog update. Before its never crashed on me and now I'm lucky if I works for 60 seconds.

[worn delta]

That's wild that Master Quest is booting!

[desert nest]

Wow that is absolutely horrifying hahaha

[drowsy lantern]

This never not looks like that guy isn't humping that rock and oh god why.

[brisk drum]

I just about cried seeing wcw vs nwo revenge boot for the first time on the core …

Entire intro is looking nice !

Sounding nice

[shrewd peak]

smash remix also works

[brisk drum]

Lol there’s some weird glitch were every character is wearing the same pink outfit

[brisk drum]

Once this core is done it’ll be the preferred way to play smash 64 and smash remix at tournaments

[fiery grove]

Thank you so much! This made my day ❤️

[shrewd peak]

ye this is sick

smash 64 about to have a huge resurge lmao

[cerulean elk]

This the SRAM list?

[brisk drum]

Don’t get super exited dudes , Robert said this is just a preview he’ll work on sram proper this weekend ! Until than let’s just wait and test

[daring meteor]

Yes

[daring meteor]

This is the reason to be excited :3

[fair stump]

New Tetris is running well

[brisk drum]

Sram opened up the floodgates !

[cerulean elk]

Yeah I’ll capture but won’t address much till it’s “official”

[daring meteor]

The fact it fixes like 10 games is nice

[brisk drum]

That’s cool bro just thought I’d let you know

[fiery grove]

None eyed mario gone but we now have kokiri wicked child in exchange, perfectly balanced as should be

[cerulean elk]

@brisk drum we got a SRAM list?

Of games

[fiery grove]

@cerulean elk caption this for the next thumbnail 😂

[worn delta]

So this only fixes Master Quest but not regular OOT?

[cerulean elk]

You the man

[brisk drum]

Someone posted it above broskie !

[lone geyser]

https://automatetheboringstuff.com/

[cerulean elk]

Gonna do captures this afternoon

[brisk drum]

Check out wcw vs nwo revenge!

It has a funny glitch going looks like everyone is wearing pink

[fiery grove]

That intro rocks, the trailer, the lightnings, sting

[fair stump]

Super Robot Taisen 64 boots now

[tropic sand]

I still have to use the patch but in the new build Mario's face is there

[brisk drum]

It looks and sounds phenomenal

Except for the red:pink lingerie glitch

[primal bolt]

i didnt now that duke thing existed

[slate sundial]

probability I'll be playing RE2 N64 this Christmas is.... high

[north lagoon]

With last updates no face patch for Mario 64 IS not required anymore?

[daring meteor]

No

[woven olive]

We got another banger theme now that No Mercyloads

[fair stump]

Super robot taisen 64 is playable now. They give you a freaking novel to read before getting to any gameplay 🤣

[daring meteor]

Its required still

[primal bolt]

No Mercy loads?

[cerulean elk]

@brisk drum tonight is all about fog/lines/new games working. Saturday will be SRAM and eyes

[marsh loom]

Perfect dark loads to a perfectly dark screen.

[primal bolt]

NO MERCY BOYZ

[daring meteor]

We have eyes

[paper orchid]

So, it truly is Perfect Dark then

[woven olive]

gameplay is slow and a lot of menu graphics in the intro aren't shown in no mercy

[primal bolt]

dic dic dic dic dic diggity dogg

[woven olive]

about to join @brisk drum and try out Revenge

[primal bolt]

id still lie to see the slow gameplay

[brisk drum]

This version of the core isn’t recognizing d pad for me .. it’s all analog stick

[safe robin]

Can't start the game crashes on boot for me. Sure it's Revenge?

[brisk drum]

Yea dude

Are you using the latest core Robert dropped today in chat ?

#1096015979055697940 message

Any mods wanna pin this ?

[kind nimbus]

Winback looks almost perfect

[woven olive]

Revenge booted for me just now. Plays about as fast as No Mercy does that's to say a bit slow. Lots of weird costume glitches.

[nimble needle]

A stubbed SRAM. Big difference there. Anywho, still exciting tho 🙂

[brisk drum]

Wrestlemania 2000 is a go

OMG YOU GUYS GOTTTA BOOT WRESTLEMANIA 2000 rn!

[primal bolt]

is World Tour slow

[brisk drum]

Hilarious glitch!

No world tour has been working since 3 builds ago

[primal bolt]

i mean the speed

[woven olive]

Speed on world tour is perfect

[brisk drum]

I played revenge and up never messed around with world tour back in the day

[worn delta]

Harvest Moon playable but looks rough

[primal bolt]

havent seen any vieos of the wrestling games being tested

[brisk drum]

For whatever reason every character in the Wrestlemania 2000 is the same place holder model ..

[primal bolt]

I first played WCW vs. the World on PSX, then World Tour on N64

then all the sequ3ls

[primal bolt]

that sounds lie ram issue

[woven olive]

lolololol the wm2k glitch

[primal bolt]

not that I would know

[woven olive]

i just captured video. should i post?

[primal bolt]

yea

dont thin I ever played "New Tetris". I dont even recall the name

I played alot of Next Tetris and Next Tetris Online

Also played Wetrix/Wetrix+ a bit

[brisk drum]

Right lol

In a world where everyone is a clone .. you must wrestle to survive

[carmine kettle]

regular mario 64 doesnt boot you still need no face mario boot

[brisk drum]

Yep

Tlb and Sram are two totally different things

[vagrant ivy]

go to work come back and Mario has eyes. This is a disgrace ! No eyes Mario is best 🙂

[woven olive]

Speed on WM2K is full as far as I can tell.

[primal bolt]

does taco adventure boot

[brisk drum]

1080 still no go

Let’s see if 007 the world is not enough will boot

[eternal island]

wonder if im doing something wrong on the noface patch application

[brisk drum]

Probably

[eternal island]

applied the patch, loaded it up, still freezes same place

[brisk drum]

Patch didn’t work

[eternal island]

any format the original needs to be in?

[compact skiff]

From the terminal:
dd if=romname.z64 bs=4096 count=1 | md5sum

[safe robin]

oh i did not, cool will try

[worn delta]

So Harvest Moon in addition to looking rough crashes when you run to a plot of earth:
E00408
3 DDR3 timeout (crash)
10 RDP command not implemented

[remote hatch]

@wanton sun My son is very happy and thanks you for making Mario's eyes ♥️

[eternal island]

ah i see.. something about lodgenet

i'll find more info

[brisk drum]

Command and conquer is behaving just like Kirby 64

All the sound is there buttons press but nothing but a dark screen

Oh it crashed

[woven olive]

GIMME A HELL YEAH

[eternal island]

that one seems trickier to track down

there we go

[woven olive]

Every wrestler is stone cold in WM2K

[odd vector]

Is there anything i have to do additionally to start sm64 wirh face?

It just crashes on me after the logo

[eternal island]

you need to get the lodgenet version and apply the ips patch on vampiers site

in pins

[odd vector]

Still necessary?

[remote hatch]

It's better now 😉

[eternal island]

yes. you see marios face now though

it just cuts out the stretchy face

[odd vector]

Yeah i thought that the newest build can run the unpatched version now

[woven olive]

Stretchy face crashes current core bec ause of a feature that will not be implemented for some time

[woven olive]

It cannot

[eternal island]

no tlb

[woven olive]

Current core will show the IN GAME model with a face. still need "no face" patch

[odd vector]

Okay, thanks for the info

[woven olive]

lol this is real confusing language to people. I can only imagine if english is not your first language

[mild ether]

Lodgenet is the version of the rom. There is the USA version and a lodgenet USA version they are both in the No Intro romset for n64

[paper orchid]

I'm upset i applied this no face patch and the game boots but mario still has a face

[eternal island]

yeaj i got it

👍

[paper orchid]

Where's the truly no-face patch

[eternal island]

i just needed to pay attention to the brackets

[odd vector]

Starshot 64 runs and looks almost like on real hw

[mild ether]

I didn't include the patch for the USA version patch cause I didn't make it.

[pallid moth]

is osd menu still squished when playing on crt?

[daring meteor]

Load a game

[brisk drum]

https://tenor.com/view/wwe-stone-cold-steve-austin-gif-21381638

ECW still a no boot

[woven olive]

Bummer. That game was never my thing but I'll mess with Sandman beating everyone with a Kendo stick anytime

About to try Virtual Pro

[brisk drum]

Gif quota exceeeded! Robby will bear down upon us with the fury of the ancient Japanese divine wind known as kamikaze

[cerulean elk]

I miss ECW. 90s ECW. New Jack from the rafters. Terry Funk and his bar wire matches. RVD. Classic stuff

[woven olive]

I loved the product just not the games. Preferred to create a wrestler in AKI games to put those guys in.

[brisk drum]

Yeah the games were notoriously bad

I’m still gonna play em though because I plain ol love jank

[woven olive]

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 boots. Takes it awhile to get past the multicolor glitch screen

[languid dune]

OMG, the iQue version of F-Zero X looks almost perfect now!! I can't contain the excitement! 😍 🤯

[brisk drum]

Mario party boots but crashes after character select

[brisk drum]

Told ya bro

[languid dune]

The track is no longer black!

[woven olive]

speed is real solid on VPW2. was hoping every character would be stan hansen or something

[daring meteor]

Soon not the iQue version

[languid dune]

I feel like I need to post a gif, but Robby will scold meeee!

[mild ether]

I kinda dig the iQue. I kinda want one in the collection.

Maybe just for the fact they are responsible for the Nintendo leak.

[brisk drum]

Yep gif quota has been reached .. it’s cooling down

[languid dune]

Mario can have his face back. This update is all about F-Zero babyyyyy!!

Still, I really want the North American release of F-Zero X to work. I need my "You've got boost power!"

[daring meteor]

Good news

[carmine kettle]

that a build to test is not a update yet

[cerulean elk]

Lol and to think you got a shoutout tonight about f zero and it’s on a black track lol

I’m gonna go back into the intro and say look for improvements in the next vid

[remote hatch]

Omg!

[hasty kayak]

Wonder if that is similar to the Ridge Racer 64 issue?

[remote hatch]

Yes , re2!

[hasty kayak]

Question to you is how?

Freezes when I select Leon or Claire (RE2).

[carmine kettle]

#1096015979055697940 message

[languid dune]

Still no Ogre Battle 64.

[cerulean elk]

That ones in too lol. It’s not possible to not be slightly behind a core in these vids at this rate. I can just notate “in the next vid you will see X”

[hasty kayak]

@remote hatch how are you getting RE 2 to progress beyond the Menu?

[remote hatch]

Jap version

biohazard 2

[hasty kayak]

Ah 🙂

[hollow rune]

Will do a testing stream later. I'll post the link when I know what time.

[placid quiver]

@orchid nimbus followed your guide; only thing not clear how are you naming the ntsc vs pal pifs or is everyone only running one since I can only have one file named boot

[languid dune]

Still infinite darkness in Kirby's levels.

[fair stump]

Huh, starcraft is pretty playable now

[mild ether]

If you have a problem grab the mame Aleck 64 PIF.

[orchid nimbus]

boot.rom

you only need 1 PIF

[placid quiver]

Ahh see I thought I needed pal and ntsc

[orchid nimbus]

for now you can test with whatever PIF

I would recommend the NTSC one

[languid dune]

Still can't get past the title screen in Mischief Makers. Help meee Marinaaaa!!

[remote hatch]

on the way to the police station ! 🙂 Biohazard 2 is fully playable

[placid quiver]

Also the SM64 face hang that needs a patch is a TLB thing right?

[orchid nimbus]

yes

[sacred valley]

Thank you FPGAzumSpass, for all of your hard work and for allowing us to use these exclusive test builds!

[daring meteor]

Use PAL-M PIF to be epic

[mild ether]

The Brazil?

[daring meteor]

Yes

[stuck summit]

I already went through the nightmare of modding my Pal-M consoles to NTSC, I'm not going back

[languid dune]

Dang, Ridge Racer didn't get the same treatment as F-Zero X iQue. Darkness track!

[languid dune]

Still no Rush 2049 either. @cerulean elk

[sacred valley]

Can't wait - one of my absolute favs

[mild ether]

I haven't found a compatibility issue between PAL 60hz Brazil and USA/Japan NTSC 60hz yet. The only difference seems to be with PAL 50hz and everything else 60hz.

[sly wasp]

listen

[languid dune]

I'm still not getting past the title splash screen.

[odd vector]

Dont update N64 and dont read the discord for 1 month and you will be shocked

[fair stump]

The sram stub build, right?

[mild ether]

No worries. We should have a working game by Christmas.

[languid dune]

I...don't know?

[teal citrus]

I just saw Robert's latest tweet, and I was like: HOLY SH*T!

[fair stump]

#1096015979055697940 message

Gotta use this

[sacred valley]

The SRAM test build is in the pins

[languid dune]

Ah, I didn't see that one.

Is that build super unstable or something?

[sacred valley]

It's a hack that is not correct and more of a "if you really want to try it by all means" type build. I haven't heard anything specific with stability aside from some games that didn't work at all before exibiting strange behaviors

[cerulean elk]

My precious

It’s my F zero lol

[mild ether]

It's a special secret build for us here.

[languid dune]

Interesting. I'll probably just hold on that one then.

[fair stump]

We're not even marking the spreadsheet for it

[sacred valley]

Not sure if you missed it, but he plans to work on a better implementation of the same this weekend

[eternal island]

lol mario 64 the weirdest glitch i'd heard. the music in the bomb stage, it sounds like someone is clapping along to it if you wait long enough

[languid dune]

Well I've gone through most of the usual suspects regarding compatibility/major issues, and the two big improvements I've encountered are Mario's face returning in Mario 64, and iQue F-Zero X looking near perfect now.

[eternal island]

it does eventually crash

[remote hatch]

when playing with the cache delay I also managed to run the US version of RE2 , but after starting the game it crashed ( street location )

[eternal island]

someone really liked that music. so much they crashed the game

[weary palm]

Gamecube version of ocarina (non mq) of time works for some reason

[orchid nimbus]

nice

[wanton sun]

so the question is: which of these two is the best videogame music ever made?

[weary palm]

Poor chicken

[wanton sun]

it messed up with the great music

[little socket]

but that's not green greens

[mild ether]

Definitely Dragon Quest VIII

[weary palm]

Who's the greatest Verilog programmer of all time?

[zealous hull]

I'm dumb.

[wanton sun]

thankfully i didn't have to play until i can enter the desert to hear it's music, it plays outside!

[mild ether]

The first one is definitely better

[zealous hull]

Yeah, I didn't realize that. lol Geurdo Desert is amazing.

[mild ether]

First impression

[drowsy lantern]

Why are the buttons at the top red and green?

[wanton sun]

because master quest version

[drowsy lantern]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

[wanton sun]

(or some bug, but i guess it's because of this version)

[sacred valley]

Can confirm; it's supposed to be red

[drowsy lantern]

No you're right. I forgot they changed the buttons for this version.

[cerulean elk]

Neither are the Bomberman Hero soundtrack so…neither? Lol (second vid is my pick)

[orchid nimbus]

Zelda gamecube doesn't work here (regular nor master quest)

[wanton sun]

you need the special, hidden build

[compact depot]

OMG OOT!!!!

[wanton sun]

there are some graphical glitches, but i had no crash so far 🙂

[compact depot]

OoT build wen 🙏

[wanton sun]

this weekend, but only masterquest version for now

[desert nest]

Somewhat off-topic I know but relevant enough -- the Song of Storms in this is incredible. Really the whole thing is worth a listen if anyone likes the OoT OST, one of the best renditions I've ever heard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDH3g6rRjM8

[orchid nimbus]

I feel so left out 😄 for not having the special build

REVOLT! - talking about that game - does it work yet 😄

I know it's the worst one

[wanton sun]

like you tell the new users in this channel: check the pins!

[oblique remnant]

F-Zero X in all it's 60fps glory

[orchid nimbus]

oh didn't check for new ones today

@wanton sun 🙂 I stand corrected

[remote hatch]

bad Vampier! bad! 😛

[orchid nimbus]

.... sooooooorrrrrryyyy

[compact depot]

Is OoT 20fps in real hardware too? Ewww! Worst game ever! 🙃

[orchid nimbus]

and no - not going to put that on the update_n64

only the test versions

[wanton sun]

yes, better that way

[nimble needle]

The Busta Rhymes version of this is class

[mortal apex]

Love this so much, was about to post it cause I just can't pick a winner 😄

[rocky spindle]

F-Zero X looks amazing with no AA on a CRT. This is the first time in my life I’m seeing N64 games this clear, after years of mods and cables and screens and all manners of BS.

[sacred valley]

Completely agreed. Brilliant way to play N64 for those of us that wondered what it would have been like if their rendering was more PS1 like

[compact depot]

MiSTer FPGA: the best N64 mod! 😎

[sly wasp]

Can't decide between koji kondo tracks..it's all awesome!!

[cerulean elk]

I take my statement back. Cubivore is the best N64 soundtrack

[weary palm]

Perhaps the non-Gamecube version of OoT uses the sram as som stupid scratch pad or something, as a anti pirating measure.

[wanton sun]

no, the game crashes before trying to access sram

soft hang

you can go into the built-in debugger but it doesn'T tell much, other than rsp hang up

[stuck summit]

It saves to SRAM, one of the few N64 games that do

[weary palm]

Ok, but there is some weird difference between N64 1.2 and the one found on collectors edition disc for GameCube.

[quartz folio]

Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 now loads with the sramstub test version and I could not be happier. Kudos!

[stuck summit]

Ah, I see

[north lagoon]

Is the last update on the core available with N64_update?

[stuck summit]

I used to be sad that an RGB mod was the best I could get. No UltraHDMI for me, too expensive. MiSTer will look a lot better than that now though

[brisk drum]

Mario 64 hack called super Mario 64 land booting up just fine with the stub ram

Now let’s try an oot hack

No go on oot hack

Maybe it’s because they aren’t in the txt n64 doc

[sly wasp]

most catchy zelda tune (in my very humble opinion) https://youtu.be/naaYxXHNyl0?list=PLAs1Kha_R9dLUSxTSb4wLHen4MAQDRIZ_

[safe robin]

Wwf no mercy working like Revenge but then colors are not pink 😎

[sacred valley]

Look about 2 or 3 screen lengths up. Secret test build is not part of the auto-update.

[brisk drum]

https://youtu.be/0hEYvdMoF2g?si=n0FZhBbShf8BSJ0H this is my fave!!

[sly wasp]

or check the pins

[cerulean elk]

nothing is more fun than getting new captures and planning another video with changes. Its like a real time treasure hunt lol

[sly wasp]

too many good tunes bringing back so many childhood memories!

[orchid nimbus]

this chat is insane - @wanton sun posts an 'experimantal core' and the hordes test almost every game and find the ones that are working 😄

[brisk drum]

That’s how it’s been since psx

[cerulean elk]

and its always fun

[brisk drum]

NO MERCY!

[cerulean elk]

When clients ask in the future how quick I can turn and burn shoots I’ll just say “well I kept up with N64 in FPGA” 🤣

[wanton sun]

i really should stop playing oot, it's pointless, i cannot save, but it's so special to see this 😅

[quartz folio]

VPW2 doesn't seem to have the Ooops! All Stone Colds issue from the video above, which is cool. I'm blown away by the absolute wizardry in this core's development.

[torpid hamlet]

Hi everyone, I've just ran the update_all script that was already on the MiSTer. Do I need to redownload it and run it again, or do I just immediately download update_N64 and run that? I'm reading the FAQ from the pins for reference.

[cerulean elk]

Gotta old school 90s it. Leave MisTer on overnight

[wanton sun]

ok, no new builds until i 100% the game?

[ocean lily]

so you're saying next up is sram saves?

[brisk drum]

Do it!

[cerulean elk]

I don’t think anyone expects anything from you at this point. Relax. Play some Zelda

[compact depot]

Hey! 🤔

😅

[ocean lily]

tho I hope we get controller pak saves before long

[cerulean elk]

The minute Cubivore works imma go missing for a day

[ocean lily]

didn't realize just how many games required a controller pak

[brisk drum]

Ahhh just hearing the super compressed Audio in the wrestlers entrances in no mercy really takes me back ..

[wanton sun]

yes, with so many games working with this change it makes absolutly sense 🙂

[fair stump]

Discord descending on a new test build

[frail jolt]

I'm not even going to think about thw work to get the core on my mister until I see some conker...but that may be a minute.....but I'm having a second kid in a week....so take your time

[brisk drum]

Eyyy congratulations !

[daring meteor]

The core is in such a good state that people are looking for save types

[mortal panther]

Robert is his own worst enemy. 🤣

[brisk drum]

A lot of games require it before they boot

[mortal panther]

Spinal needs eyes more.

[brisk drum]

Oh crap I still gotta test that with the sramstub build

[fair stump]

It still freezes

[frail jolt]

Thanks captain taco

[brisk drum]

KI still freezing

But at least it froze on a killer track

[drowsy lantern]

N64 cartridges were expensive enough to produce as it is, most 3rd party devs did not want to pay a cent of extra for cart storage.

[quick arch]

Maybe 60/70% boots now

[brisk drum]

Play hard

[fair stump]

I don't know KI so I was caught off guard by the music 😆

[eternal island]

i wonder what it is about the bomb level in mario 64 that causes an eventual crash if ya stand there too long

is it just that level?

[quartz folio]

Do yourselves a favour before the next test core release: Let the opening demo to WWF WrestleMania 2000 play through and enjoy. 🙂

[brisk drum]

https://youtu.be/VmKxgX3NVVU?si=84b2xbHCyHcGzq4Q

[wanton sun]

i had random crashes in other places, too

[eternal island]

i noticed the sound goes a bit weird before it crashes. just slightly

[vagrant ivy]

You want to report that to the lazy Dev !

[vapid hawk]

anyone tried re2? (is that even an sram game?)

[eternal island]

like its losing sync or something

[sacred valley]

I have a feeling this will be good... checking...

[remote hatch]

Biohazard 2 works well

[wanton sun]

the n64 version even has proper controls, right?

[vapid hawk]

oh so it was an sram game? nice

i think they have some camera relative controls in there yeah

[wanton sun]

so maybe i can play it now for the first time 🙂

[brisk drum]

Lol wtf

[vapid hawk]

you'll quickly see why most fixed camera angle games don't use them

[raw oriole]

Heads up: You're being a dick again. Settle it down. You've had three mod warnings.

[iron trail]

Wow, it really is special seeing OoT (MQ) booting on the MiSTer. 🥹 thank you @wanton sun

[quick arch]

Hack F-Zero X Climax works !

[brisk drum]

Exactly how I feel about the wrassslin games

[iron trail]

Haha the wrasslin' games are good!

bruh lol

[modern sleet]

I've noticed the display width for killer instinct is set to 1280 for two versions and Rev 2 it's set to 640, must be a 480i game ?

[raw oriole]

Dude. That's it.

[compact depot]

Bam!

[zealous hull]

You disappeared them.

[cerulean elk]

bug report: Mario has a face. I think thats wrong

[vagrant ivy]

he was warned

[brisk drum]

Who needs F zero when you have aerogauge

[mortal panther]

Anti-aliased into oblivion.

[zealous hull]

Oh, I'm not saying they shouldn't have. lol

But anyway. Exciting new stuff today. I'm really excited about this weekend.

[silent marten]

how?

[compact depot]

OoT Friday Tomorrow then?

[fair stump]

Check the pins for the sram build

[eternal island]

Man.. the love for N64 really brings out some interesting characters lol

[zealous hull]

And even better mods.

[raw oriole]

Be kind about BasketSnake, he can't help it

[craggy kettle]

I don't see the issue here

[sly wasp]

it has half AA (RDP not video out AA yet)

[drowsy lantern]

After playing a lot of the PSX core in the past year, it's nice coming to games with absolutely zero loading. 😅

[fallen sparrow]

RE2 keeps hanging for me. Any advise?

[zealous hull]

Loading Paper Mario/Conker takes a lifetime. ;P

[craggy kettle]

darn it, I didn't realize I was behind in the chat and responded to something posted a minute but three pages ago 😆

[raw oriole]

Gotta move fast

[stuck summit]

It's a SRAM game, I wonder if it's related to that

[knotty zealot]

if a post is toastworthy i don't miss it

[fair stump]

JP version?

[night saddle]

first thing I was gonna try lol. so great to see!

[oblique remnant]

JPN Version works here

[fallen sparrow]

no, i'll try that now, thanks

[eternal island]

Lol.. I feel like I can't even get a chance to test. By the time I'm off work you all have already tested everything

[quick arch]

yeah 😉

[knotty zealot]

it's got japanese letters and yet you call it RE2? isn't that supposed to be bio hazard?

what is this, bizarro world?

[eternal island]

Maybe if there is a new build this weekend I can finally join in and help out

[wanton sun]

i wasn't aware this is a thing

congrats!

[knotty zealot]

thankya

[eternal island]

i ended up playing on my hdtv so i could better test the n64 easier, and ended up kind of liking it with the right combination of filters

[old iris]

what version of f-zero x is running? If Chinese, where can I download it?

[eternal island]

now i'm conflicted if i prefer crt or this...

[knotty zealot]

"i ended up kind of liking it"

[eternal island]

yeah

[knotty zealot]

https://tenor.com/view/drinking-wine-wine-country-wine-dance-gif-15085091

[oblique remnant]

US works fine

[eternal island]

then i looked over at my crts

and realized... i can't move those

[knotty zealot]

so the ugliest system made you appreciate the highest def modern tv the most

[eternal island]

nah. i started playing around with all the others too

it just started it..

[knotty zealot]

the n64 made you rediscover modern television to truly appreciate it for what it can do

[iron trail]

The last couple years has been crazy for MiSTer on HDMI. With VRR, HLG HDR, adaptive scanlines, the right shadow mask, and gamma correction, it's so close to my PVM I've considered retiring it

[fallen sparrow]

keeps hanging here for me

[orchid nimbus]

name that game 😄

[knotty zealot]

yoshi's story

[fair stump]

Goemon

[orchid nimbus]

I wonder why it stopped working early on

[eternal island]

yeah. made me consider just saving for an oled

[craggy kettle]

the red wedding

[fair stump]

Are you using the sram build in the pins?

[craggy kettle]

excuse me I meant the red wedding 64

[blissful plaza]

Goemon 2.

[knotty zealot]

it's mario 64. the color is found on the stairs inside the castle

[iron trail]

Do it, we have a few and I regret not doing it sooner

[eternal island]

i do think 65 inch tv unless sitting very far back though is way too much for retro consoles based on the tv i use it on

[fallen sparrow]

trying it now

[eternal island]

i have to sit on the couch furthest away. ill be getting a smaller one for sure

[knotty zealot]

i watched the meg 2 on my cx last night. that movie is garbage but super fun and looks great. oled for life.

[sacred valley]

lmao. Interesting that the female wrestlers load correctly

[iron trail]

We have a 65" C2 in the living room and 2x 42" LGs in our game room. The 42" and 48" are both great sizes.

[oblique remnant]

I thought RE2 had some crazy Microcode goin on why is it already working ? 😄

[fallen sparrow]

thanks, working

[knotty zealot]

gonna set all the nerds straight. the dozens of filter options mister has does the job AND THEN SOME. it's awesome. wine all around.

[old iris]

I hang on the splash screen with the logo at the beginning of the game (

[oblique remnant]

check the PIN for the SRAM Build

[craggy kettle]

it took me the longest time to realize y'all weren't telling me to check the physical pins on my Mister, but the channel threads in discord

[old iris]

Please, can you be more specific about what I need to do?

[craggy kettle]

top right of discord there's a pin icon

[vagrant ivy]

install; the build in the channel pins

[craggy kettle]

click it and find the pin for the SRAM stub

[vagrant ivy]

this

[old iris]

Thx

[vagrant ivy]

but its not for distribution outside Discord

Robert has asked it not be copied from here

[craggy kettle]

it's cause Robert loves just us

[native mesa]

You wouldn't download a core

[old iris]

on a composite signal the core does not work yet?

[brisk drum]

Oh snap ! I’m pulling 20 hit plus combos into super on some clay fighters

So jank but fun

[zealous hull]

Has anybody here been able to successfully patch a translated version of Cubivore? The hash matches the patch description I got from romhacking(dot)net, but it's throwing an error both with my local and web xdelta patcher.

"secondary decompressor" error

[quick arch]

it works great no freeze and no graphical issue

[weary palm]

I'll try

[brisk drum]

My combos be ludicrous B

[quaint rune]

How’s it play ? I never tried. Is it the hype ?

[knotty zealot]

it plays like the other n64 games

[brisk drum]

It’s awesome jank fun , super easy to chain combos into super

Kusoge ^

[knotty zealot]

you fight the controls more than the clay

[wraith estuary]

do yall think 2 x 2-player Reflex adapters would be a good way to get 4 player with original controllers going on this core (once the core is ready...)?

[compact depot]

Hey! So the Snake is out of the Basket again! 😛

[desert nest]

I'd stay tuned on that, let me find the tweet but it sounds like there might be a 4P solution in the works currently (prototyping).

[compact depot]

Sup @knotty zealot

[marble cargo]

Hey, I just noticed Diddy Kong Racing has sound now. I haven't tested that out in a while, so I don't know if a previous build fixed that.

[brisk drum]

@zinc dew the only@other fighting game on the n64 features fat babies

And excellent ingrish

[weary palm]

patch went fine. i used deltapatcher v3.0.1 for windows

[brisk drum]

Yep last build

[wraith estuary]

good to know, thanks

[brisk drum]

Uh I use a precision engineered fight stick for the ultimate control in fighting games

[zealous hull]

Thanks for checking. I must have downloaded a bad patch or something, I don't know why the webpatcher is throwing an error as well. I'll do some more digging.

[desert nest]

Ahh okay so what I saw looks like it was for SNAC, not sure if that's also going to be a version of Reflex Adapt. https://twitter.com/MisterAddons/status/1699263346250289334
Maybe @graceful radish can clarify here.

[wraith estuary]

that works too! bookmarked!

[devout leaf]

I love my SNAX but I’m jealous of the Reflex people able to test cores with a controller.

Living the dream

[desert nest]

Yeah the Reflex is sweet.

[modern sleet]

@wanton sun Not a big issue, but https://github.com/RobertPeip/Mister64/blob/main/rtl/VI_videoout_sync.vhd#L122 on boot is the cause for the screen to be all squished for analog out and not really visible (Loading a core fixes it), but defaulting to 250 here fixes that issue. And I know this is not RDP/RSP related and its not priorty because analog out is not being looked at but I thought I would bring it up as a temporary fix.

[devout leaf]

Yeah literally 1st world problem that I have to wait “a little longer” lol

[wanton sun]

i was just setting any kind of minimum number there. Can set it higher if required

but 250 = 240 lines as minimum is too high

[modern sleet]

Assuming 320x240

[wanton sun]

there are games that show garbage in lines 238+

[modern sleet]

ahh thats why you changed it

[wanton sun]

so if a game says it has 237 lines(like most nintendo games do) i want to do that

[modern sleet]

Yeah, no issues there

[daring meteor]

You could do like 200 as a safe number

Well

That is assuming 200 doesn't appear squished

[graceful radish]

Both work but the new SNAX64 (working name) is 4 player SNAC for N64 as well as backwards compatible with all other SNAC things (with their inherent limitations on # of players). Only N64 can do 4 Player

[wanton sun]

best would be to do any number and have fixed blanks

but i didn't invest the time for that

[daring meteor]

Yeah, but setting it to 200 is a 1 second change that has a benefit

[desert nest]

Thanks for clarifying -- are there any plans for a 4P Reflex Adapt? I think that was the underlying question.

[daring meteor]

I'll test it and in 20 minutes I'll say if it fixed anything

[wanton sun]

maybe @modern sleet can check if setting it to 210 is already a help (210 = 200 pixels height)

[deft tree]

if you wanted to stay USB, 2x reflex +4x N64 dongles would work

[wanton sun]

can you check on a crt? if yes that would be good

[carmine kettle]

you got the snax adapter

[deft tree]

i'm going to probably be doing 1x SNAX and 1x reflex for n64

[daring meteor]

Yeah I do it on a CRT on RGBs

[wanton sun]

great

[knotty zealot]

how can i dispute this

[devout leaf]

Oh yeah. Love it.

[carmine kettle]

same power cable?

[desert nest]

That's... actually a really good idea, that way you still have menu access for one pair of controllers plus coverage for SNAC.

[modern sleet]

What is the minimum res ? 256x224?

[deft tree]

If i didn't already have the standard 2p SNAX I'd almost definitely be buying a snax64

[daring meteor]

Started compiling with 210, let's see

I don't know why but the core compiles relativally quickly for me, quicker than I remember PSX core being

[wanton sun]

psx core has games with down to 32 pixels height, no idea what the lowest is for n64

[deft tree]

i will also say, in general the "snac can't access menus" thing is kinda overblown. You can still just have a wireless USB controller or keyboard nearby

[desert nest]

Not overblown, just preference. 🙂

Less things to carry around with me.

[deft tree]

if thats the case, then just get the NSO controllers and connect with BT

its got extra buttons so you can have a dedicated menu

[brisk drum]

@knotty zealot eat it nerd!

[deft tree]

not impressed until you do a 69 hit

[cerulean elk]

why do people subject themselves to ClayFighter lol

[native mesa]

Because it has a funny name

63 1/3 so funneh

[graceful radish]

No plans. Injection molding is a pretty rigid constraint on design.

[cerulean elk]

you getting those done in the US or China? I only ask because I used to deal in working with factories in China on injection molding for ski/snowboard goggles

[graceful radish]

China

The only cost effective way even with the 25% tariff

[cerulean elk]

That's what I figured. Going to those factories was my least fav part of the job

[graceful radish]

Oof I bet

Thankfully I’m unlikely to ever need to go

[cerulean elk]

9/10 times when a problem needed a solution it was "who needs the bribe to fix the problem they caused to initiate this whole visit"

[hollow rune]

I am streaming myself testing some games. If you want to watch or have requests we can update the spreadsheet together.
https://www.twitch.tv/rgw_panda

[cerulean elk]

just saw your email. I put alerts on

I will try to stop in once I get this edit mostly buttoned up

[languid dune]

Already runs better than the NSO version on Switch.

[cerulean elk]

I got an F-Zero comparison for you in tomorrow's vid

[knotty zealot]

nerd? me? wow

[cerulean elk]

well for everyone but when I think of F Zero I think of @languid dune

[modern sleet]

I've already tested it with 247 and it works well but I had not tested every game to see if anything has a pixel height under that. Thats why i brought it up as a temporary fix until the analog out can get added later. Let me know if you find a game that has a really small pixel height

[oblique remnant]

I must say the speed don't feels as good via my capture card as when I switch to the monitor....

[knotty zealot]

you should name this core "blast core"

you heard it here first /dab

[daring meteor]

@wanton sun

[wanton sun]

210?

[daring meteor]

Yes

Looks good

[wanton sun]

ok, i'll use it with the next build

[daring meteor]

Thank you

[wanton sun]

thank you for the quick test 🙂

[lean spruce]

thank you both 🙂

[cerulean elk]

Evangellion is a trip

[ocean lily]

my nerd one went away :c

[languid dune]

[modern sleet]

The lowest pixel height is probably 224 or 221 minimum but it's mostly going to be 237 for most games.

[wanton sun]

🙂

[cerulean elk]

but I want trippy mode still lol

[wanton sun]

this is not story

[cerulean elk]

I must be blind then lol

[wanton sun]

single player of smash bros beaten 🙂

[cerulean elk]

that's why. I never play Smash lol

[languid dune]

Why you not play Smash!?

[eternal island]

i wonder if that mod runs that adds a ton of content. i'll try it tonight if no one doesn't

[cerulean elk]

SNK didnt make it lol

[dusty tusk]

Time to try fzero X expansion kit cartridge port

[cloud peak]

Since sin and punishment and Ucchannanchan no Honō no Challenger: Denryū Iraira Bō works, I call this core complete

[eternal island]

i think its called smash remix or something?

[marble cargo]

Yoshi's saddle being yellow instead of red has always bugged me.

[cerulean elk]

call me when its SNK vs Nintendo @languid dune

[fair stump]

But don't you want to see where Terry originally comes from?

[languid dune]

Terry is in Smash Ultimate!

[compact depot]

surprise core build drop wen

[brisk drum]

Blitz 2000 gets in game now

[cerulean elk]

I said SNK vs Nintendo. Not Terry vs Nintendo. But I am sure Terry dominates

I am just kidding...I enjoy Smash. But I haven't played the 64 version in forever

[compact depot]

Oh, are those for the current build?

[languid dune]

Terry actually is amazing in Smash. Love using his supers with the actual inputs.

[cerulean elk]

but thanks for saying Smash. I forgot to cut it into this vid for tomorrow

editing 3X things at once popping back and forth

editing the obv best game ever...Death Crimson OX lol

[devout leaf]

Man SRAM looks like a giant leap forward.

[elfin depot]

My very fav is Awbacon "I'm taking Labor day off, no exceptions, well, probably" Then doing a video because this core is moving so fast in development. I half wonder if Robert is watching his videos then doing things just to mess with him.

[marble cargo]

I'm guessing the Smash Remix mod for Super Smash Bros. doesn't work yet? That requires the expansion pak.

[rocky spindle]

I think that’s the same CRT I used to have. From 2000. Great picture quality.

[cerulean elk]

Mean old Mr. Robert lol

[languid dune]

Awbacon is destined/cursed to make videos on holidays. Robert demands it!

[rocky spindle]

Terry vs. Nintendo sounds like one of their regular lawsuits.

[last scarab]

For those who have the NSO N64 controller connected via USB C, how is the latency? Does it feel the same as the original N64 controller wired to the controller?

[cerulean elk]

Haha no I enjoy it. Production work is DEAD in Chicago so...make hay while the sun shines

[cedar arrow]

hello, I have one question about the use of the NSO controller. I'm on the stable MiSTer, can I copy the zImage_dtb that is in the test-bulds and use it or I shouldn't do that?

[cerulean elk]

dual strikes + shit economy = free time

[zenith orchid]

anyone tried smash remix on the unlisted test build?

[daring meteor]

Right on the Year, haha, works great on Mister with SCART

[wanton sun]

i always try to slow VGE down but what can i do? news of today are old tomorrow 😅

[languid dune]

Same up here. I went free lance (graphic design) about 4 years ago. Started out good, then it went dry.

[daring meteor]

The true compotition

[mortal panther]

You're helping him build character.

[daring meteor]

Robert and VGE

[cerulean elk]

you are no diff than a client who wants 24 hour turn arounds. Except you give better notes!

[cerulean elk]

its "hard times" right now as Dusty Rhodes would say. But I have a sugar momma

[zenith orchid]

lol alright I'll come back later

[last scarab]

if FPGAzumSpass was a FPGA instructor, I would sign up for his class 😂

[karmic locust]

Can we get toggle to switch Mario's eyes on and off?

[cerulean elk]

Teaching. Always fun, never fun. I am on the list for DePaul and Northwestern because they need film professors but holy shit does academia move SLOW

[bronze tree]

Mario Golf boots with the sram stub

[cerulean elk]

might take a year + for an offer...or no offer at all

[bronze tree]

(but crashes before the game even begins)

same with Ogre Battle

[zenith orchid]

if smash remix works, then I'm totally grabbing that build

[shrewd peak]

it works

[zenith orchid]

👀

are you for real??

[shrewd peak]

playing right now

no issues

it takes like 30s to load because its massive though

[zenith orchid]

it's worth it right?

[shrewd peak]

oh yes

[zenith orchid]

alright, transferring the build to the MiSTer as we speak

maybe we'll get a savestate that skips the loading

[shrewd peak]

i meant for loading the rom

[zenith orchid]

ohhh

[shrewd peak]

its a one-time thing

[zenith orchid]

are you loading from sdcard?

[last scarab]

i always thought about becoming a assistant professor, but i dont know what to study in. I could talk about basic computers to old people/young adults. Maybe building/buying computer parts and basic troubleshooting? Ill think about it 🙂

[shrewd peak]

yeah

[bronze tree]

yay, New Tetris boots and is fully playable

[cerulean elk]

dont do it if you want to make money lol

[shrewd peak]

one thing actually

[cerulean elk]

Adjunct work blows; all the time commitments, all the lesson planning/outside of class work...none of the benefits or tenure

[shrewd peak]

looks like you need to boot regular smash 64 first

then switch to remix

otherwise it doesnt load, though that might just be an issue for me

[cerulean elk]

you work next to someone @last scarab who gets a massive salary, job protection and giant benefits package...doing the same work...except you get paid by the semester as a contractor with no benefits/401k/protection

[zenith orchid]

I'll give it a try then

[bronze tree]

it's a side effect of how the settings auto detect works

[eternal island]

decided to try smash remix

[bronze tree]

if the game is not detected, the settings are not changed

so if you load another game first with the correct settings it will work

[shrewd peak]

oh yeah, the text file right?

[bronze tree]

yes

[shrewd peak]

neat

[orchid nimbus]

I love the extra handicap

[quaint rune]

Gary’s kingler looks like it’s about to choke him. Oops krabby actually.

[zenith orchid]

so the issue with smash remix is that it's not in the db?

that's why you have to load the original first?

[echo cosmos]

Can anyone get Super Mario 64 to start? I get the welcome screen and then immediately a frozen garbled mess no matter what I seem to do

[eternal island]

i never had to load the original

[shrewd peak]

yeah pretty much

[remote hatch]

you need no face patch

[strong gorge]

New core?

[shrewd peak]

they use the same settings

[bronze tree]

Maybe it's in the new DB from @weary palm , I can't check right now

[strong gorge]

Its been hinted that the face issue has been fixed.

[eternal island]

i just loaded smash remix and its been working

[echo cosmos]

You mean just download the latest build right?

[zenith orchid]

@echo cosmos there's an FAQ in the pins

[rocky spindle]

Some more CRT porn for all you dirty bastards..

[vagrant ivy]

There is a ghostly man hiding on the Top Left shot

[remote hatch]

yes, Mario's face in the game has been fixed

not at the start

[orchid nimbus]

fap fap fap fap fap

[eternal island]

ah man. i love that smash remix is working so flawlessly

[remote hatch]

https://vampier.net/N64/

[eternal island]

i'll play around with it a bit more after work to see if i can find more bugs

[echo cosmos]

I see thank you

[eternal island]

or any

[uneven dagger]

the presence of two different no-face issues in the same game is something of a support nightmare eh? 🙂

[zenith orchid]

now there's only one right. 😂

[native mesa]

Sonic and dark samus don't belong on that roster IMO

[tulip coral]

When you have visible scan lines in white areas on a CRT, you know you’ve made the right choices in life

[drowsy lantern]

You got BOOST power!!!

[eternal island]

They don't, but I think it was popular demand, so I think some would disagree lol

[languid dune]

You had my interest at CRT. But with F-Zero? Now you have my attention!

[eternal island]

and depending on how big that choice was, it may not be an easy one to reverse

... wanna pick up a 36 inch sony xbr

please

[last scarab]

do you mean when he comes out of the green pipe?

[mellow path]

There should be far more Fire Emblem characters too, at least 1/3rd of the roster

[thorn flax]

I'm so sorry

[remote hatch]

that start

in game all is ok

[iron trail]

Deku tree down, how far do you guys think can we go before a crash?

Going slow because I'm supposed to be working lol

[eternal island]

it does still randomly crash though

[thorn flax]

terrible joke came to me and i must share it.
what do you call F-Zero on PS1!?
||F-Zero Buffer||

[echo cosmos]

I applied the patch to the game and put it back on the mister. It does the same thing. Crash after he says "It's me mario"

[eternal island]

jet moto i suppose

i cant think of a game like it

[last scarab]

Wipeout for Ps1!

[eternal island]

thats the closest i got

on that... if ya havent ever tried the jet moto games, give them a go

[warped patrol]

@echo cosmos I accidentally used the wrong rom for the no face patch. If you're going with ntsc make sure it's the lodgenet rom when patching.

[eternal island]

buddy of mine didnt even know they existed and got hooked

[tulip coral]

I don’t want to pick it up…. But I’d quite like it 🤣

[dusty tusk]

Hell yeah best F-Zero runs

[languid dune]

F-Zero GX runs!?

[dusty tusk]

Cartridge version of the DD expansion sadly does not yet

Lol gx

[echo cosmos]

I used "Super Mario 64 - US Version (LodgeNet) - no face IPS" on the NTSC US version of the game

[eternal island]

i'd been trying to give that one away. a lot of people wanted it.. not many willing to attempt the pick up

there was one skinny dude who showed up alone in a small car...

don't know what he thought he was going to do

i was willing to help but he couldnt even pick up the other side of it

[primal bolt]

lol

[warped patrol]

That'll cause the issue then. The lodgenet super mario rom will be in the no intro romset and should fix your issues

[rocky spindle]

Using the video mode for analog that’s been going around (The one off of Vampier’s site) it’s doing a fine job, but some typography is missing pixels.

[echo cosmos]

No intro romset? What are you talking about?

[eternal island]

think i'll wait to play through mario 64. the random crashing will get to me

[warped patrol]

See https://vampier.net/N64/

[eternal island]

constantly watching for it.. knowing it could get me at any moment

[rocky spindle]

Wow.. if you zoom into that shot you can see each little horizontal element of the aperture grille. 😍

[echo cosmos]

Oh, I missed that

[plush summit]

🚨 _NARC ALERT_🚨

😛

[iron trail]

At least you can save! Playing oot and will lose all progress whenever it crashes lol

[eternal island]

But its there... the crash is sentient. It'll happen when you least want it to

[iron trail]

Haha true

[eternal island]

Its watching me right now

[iron trail]

It's watching all of us 👀

[eternal island]

go on.. play a little bit of mario 64 man. isnt it cool to play it on mister? even has a face now! go on.... play it

and the only way to tell its going to get you.. is when the music distorts

just ever so slightly...

[dusty tusk]

Man, even the psuedo reflections work in fzero X. Even emulators struggle with that

[native mesa]

If you set vscale mode to 0 instead of 1 it should correct

[native mesa]

If it's not 99% anime sword guys, i don't want it

[echo cosmos]

Working now, thank you

[dusty tusk]

Friendly reminder to those that don't know, you can have per core settings if you add your settings under the core's folder name in brackets "[N64]"

[inner bronze]

Super Sword Bros

[rocky spindle]

It’s already on 0.

[quaint rune]

Fire emblem has way too many reps than they needed in smash

I do love Cap’n Crunch though.

[dusty tusk]

I hate the people saying smahs bros has too many mascots

I think each game franchise should have like 3-4 reps max

[hollow rune]

Starcaft 64 Sramstub

[eternal island]

still waiting for tifas trainer to be added to smash. ive been let down so far. some day

[devout leaf]

Anyone test Smash Remix?

[eternal island]

yep

played fine

but i didnt test extensively

[devout leaf]

Awesome, thank you

[neat sierra]

What are you guys using for controllers?

[eternal island]

and it was the sram build i tested it in

[mortal panther]

If this SRAMstub is a hack, Robert is more than welcome to hack together anything he desires. It sure is having a lot of positive effects.

[devout leaf]

Dude is a wizard

[hollow rune]

Pokemon stadium 2 works like a dream

[mortal panther]

For this core only, of course.

[manic basin]

More of a necromancer.

[eternal island]

im just using a ps5 controller. same as any other core

[chrome quest]

Raphnet adapter with original controller

[mortal panther]

For every other core, HORI Fighting Commander 4... although I am starting to use a DualSense more for non-PS5 and PC use.

[lament escarp]

8bitdo n64 modkit

[hollow rune]

Thanks to everyonw who watched the stream. Sorry it pooped out like it did

[zenith orchid]

Well, I'm excited for the weekend. So many new working games. 😄

[lament escarp]

Just died when I entered. Catch you next time.

[rocky spindle]

DualSense Bluetooth is seriously no joke. I can’t tell the difference between that and the PSX SNAC adapter.

[mortal panther]

It's one of the best game controllers ever released. It's practically perfect.

[zinc dew]

Thank you, you're great too

[hallow sedge]

Guys, I'm getting a crash in Mario 64 if I turn on Data-cache, is there a way to leave it on and avoid crashes?

[orchid nimbus]

yes there is

data cache delay to 10

it still crashes but less

[hallow sedge]

aaah gotcha ! thank you !

[rocky spindle]

Not sure. Definitely best this gen. Poor battery and durability concerns are holding it back, for me.

[visual wadi]

I’ve been testing this controller for the last couple days and it’s pretty freaking great. And comes with 2.4ghz usb dongle and real hardware dongle

[rocky spindle]

It’s absolutely wicked for Death Stranding DC. That was my first time experiencing the new features.

[dusty tusk]

Sadly Densha de Go English and F-Zero X Expansion Kit cartridge ports don't work, but they're both everdrive verified so here's hoping there's just some functionality that's missing

[carmine kettle]

interesting, from where?

[visual wadi]

https://amzn.to/3Z5g7Q9

It’s cheap too.

Works perfect with mister

[dusty tusk]

Any good controller with hall effect joysticks

[vapid moat]

Ouuu Snap, must go PLAY

[vapid moat]

This is more morbid than I remembered it

[dusty tusk]

God dang paper Mario getting my hopes up

[carmine kettle]

how the analog?

[raw oriole]

The new 8bitdo conversion kit for old N64 controllers uses Guli's hall effect sticks

[visual wadi]

Feels really nice

[daring meteor]

I use a Vader 3 Pro on the core

[cerulean elk]

https://youtu.be/qaXNfzQU8pQ

[eternal island]

Vid is out

[cerulean elk]

some fun till tomorrow

[eternal island]

damn. beat me to announcing your own video

ill get ya next time

[cerulean elk]

haha I will be slower tomorrow

and see everyone again tomorrow at 4 lolol. Voice over for next part after this

[rapid condor]

havent kept up with this core. Are there any games that are stable?

[cyan hawk]

What games can now be run on mister fpga N64? Mario tennis?

[mortal panther]

Check the pinned comments. Robby has created a list of fully playable games so far.

[cerulean elk]

a good list is in pins

games that all just work super well

[daring meteor]

TLDR: Not Mario Tennis

[rapid condor]

oh forgot those exist, appreciate it man

[dusty tusk]

Man, 40 winks speech is impressive

[cerulean elk]

happy to help. Plus Ocarina Master Quest version is banging today too

F Zero with big imrovements

[manic basin]

"Stick working, but slightly loose."
Oh, really....

I mean, I'm replacing it anyway, but there are lies, damned lies, statistics, and eBay descriptions.

[visual wadi]

I can’t get the sanni controller rom to work

[cerulean elk]

seems ok to me...if you like broken

[manic basin]

You have to load a save state Robert supplied. I dunno if it's pinned, so here you go.

[visual wadi]

Ahhh

Perfect

[orchid nimbus]

there - I put that as a milestone

[cerulean elk]

I mean...it really is one

[dusty tusk]

Weird, none of my patched roms seem to be working ever since I did update all

[orchid nimbus]

mister main unstable

reinstall

[dusty tusk]

Yeah, I put that back

[cerulean elk]

update_all writes over unstable

[orchid nimbus]

it didnt used to

[cerulean elk]

No? I thought it did

my memory some days isnt 100%

[split lynx]

Anyone using the Adaptoid N64 controller adapter with the MiSTer? Doesnt seem like i can get all the buttons configured, like the Z and the 4 yellow ones

[dusty tusk]

I put it back, everything else works. But dk64 patched to exclude expansion pak check no longer works

[orchid nimbus]

or it did but main versions got updated more frequent for the PSX core

I wonder what's taking sorg so long

[paper orchid]

now has a face
requires hack to remove face

[rose elbow]

it didn’t specify which face !

[cerulean elk]

Mario isnt allowed all his faces. He gets too powerful then

[viscid gate]

https://www.lanpartyguide.com/zelda/adaptoid.jpg
I have one of these working OK. Initially I had trouble mapping it in Menu - but after a few attempts it was OK

[stone pilot]

Should be good for Galaxian and Donkey Kong

[split lynx]

ok ya thats what i have too. I'll keep trying it. thanks!

[devout leaf]

1D controller

[manic basin]

Flatland plays GREAT!

[zenith orchid]

I just can't get enough F-Zero X

[orchid nimbus]

in game mario - very carefully formatted

[devout leaf]

That’s pretty nuts though. I’m loving the 8bitdo stick more than I thought.

[brisk drum]

https://tenor.com/view/macho-man-randy-savage-oh-yeah-dig-it-happy-gif-5327208

Wcw Vs nwo revenge rules!

[shell cloak]

For some reason the c-buttons on my 8bitdo kit don’t work 😦 I wonder if I have to open it up again. Everything else is fantastic

[obsidian cosmos]

sometimes you need to map them on a PC with the 8bit do software

[zinc dew]

wiiiiiide

[cerulean elk]

CREAM OF THE CROP

[obsidian cosmos]

that's how I got the start/select buttons going on my 8bitdo arcade stick

[fiery grove]

looks great, i don't know if wait for the N64 SNAC or buy this🤔

[raw oriole]

Aspect Ratio Abuse klaxon 🚨

[cerulean elk]

ok help me pick tomorrows thumbnail: meme edition

OR...and hear me out

[devout leaf]

Yeah yeah that was before I fixed it lol

[paper orchid]

The first face is in-game though! it's right on boot up!

(i'm pulling your leg of course)

[raw oriole]

Ooh blimey

[cerulean elk]

now I want to try to dual screen it

[craggy kettle]

That link rom is still the debug one and not an actual OoT rom, right?

[raw oriole]

Good thing that sort of thing would never happen in real life 😅

[orchid nimbus]

wait until my leg comes off so I can beat you with it 😄

[cerulean elk]

Double wide ultrawide

Can I get Mario across them both at once

[paper orchid]

Technically it's in-game if I get a game over! 🤣

(skill issue)

[paper orchid]

I have one of those LG DualUps, where's my square Mario

[cerulean elk]

dual ultrawides is a stupid setup but I get so accustomed to things. I need my big trackball. I need my old Apple keyboard. I need my dual ultrawides

[torpid hamlet]

Gave Sin and Punishment a personal test run. Aside from one graphical bug I've noticed and worse than native hardware framerate, I was really impressed how good it was already. Nice work!

[paper orchid]

Which graphical bug? I was about to go through a full test again

[torpid hamlet]

There's supposed to be a background here

[paper orchid]

Oh yeah, lemme check that

[dusty tusk]

Anyone else no longer able to get dk64 working with the patch?

[paper orchid]

Yeah, the vortex in the background

Let me update the spreadsheet again

A lot of other stuff was fixed when I tried it earlier, chapter 2's cutscene has a lot more of its textures which got me excited. I guess now it's time to get nitpicky lol

(Brad's eyes and the comms screen in the chapter 2 cutscene were fixed as well)

[torpid hamlet]

Ah yeah, I would need to go record an entire playthrough on original hardware

[paper orchid]

I was debating doing the same thing lol

[torpid hamlet]

Also, how does Turbo mode work

[paper orchid]

One recording on hardware, one on the MiSTer

Though @torpid hamlet if you were going to record one, which one would you want to do

I could record the other and do a crawl through

[torpid hamlet]

How do you mean

Like a full playthrough on Hard? Normal?

[paper orchid]

Do you have the ability to take a recording of the console or the MiSTer, and if so would you want to record one of those plays?

Then I could do a separate play on the other piece

[torpid hamlet]

I can record off my N64 and MiSTer

[fiery grove]

i tought that original N64 controller can't be uglier, 'till i saw this one on amazon JP

[paper orchid]

Same; IIRC there's no content differences between Easy/Normal/Hard

[torpid hamlet]

There is

[paper orchid]

Oh is there?

[torpid hamlet]

On 2-2, there's this huge plane you don't fight on Easy

[paper orchid]

Oh right, you're right

[torpid hamlet]

The one that's surrounded by airplanes

[paper orchid]

Yeah I think you see it in Easy but you don't fight it

Normal then?

[torpid hamlet]

Yeah, I'll just record Normal on N64

[paper orchid]

I need to figure out audio for HDMI, but I can do the MiSTer recording then

And try to get used to this controller I'm using 😭

[torpid hamlet]

I own an NSO N64 controller, so I just used that for the MiSTer :^]

[dusty tusk]

My Xbox one controller is falling apart. Stick drift and rb sticking

[paper orchid]

I have an 8bitdo Ultimate, the 2.4GHz one

[torpid hamlet]

Ah

[paper orchid]

It's nice, for general purpose

[torpid hamlet]

To be fair, I first played Sin and Punishment on a modern pad

[paper orchid]

N64.... not so much lmao

[torpid hamlet]

And it works pretty well

[paper orchid]

It does, but then I got used to N64 controls

[torpid hamlet]

Haha

I can go back and forth

[paper orchid]

I can do the MiSTer still lol

I'll hide the error code but keep the FPS counter

[torpid hamlet]

Alrighty, I'm gonna go pick up my N64 and RT

[paper orchid]

👍

[torpid hamlet]

I'm recording off composite though, I don't own S-video

[paper orchid]

I need to spend a bit of time getting my recording setup going again, the setup is for an arcade cab originally

Though I guess I don't need audio

[torpid hamlet]

Speaking of audio

In 2-2, on Easy some helicopters flew past me faster than it did on Normal/Hard
