Nintendo 64

[daring meteor]

Set to 4mb

[wanton sun]

no excuse for Robby anymore 🙂

[brisk drum]

Oooo let’s see if battle for naboo works!

[daring meteor]

Exotica

[brisk drum]

Still nothing with battle for naboo sadly ..

[loud tartan]

Did International Track & Field 2000 woek before? If not, it does now!

[pine apex]

change expansion pak to 4MB

[mild ether]

Wow! Dr Mario is absolutely perfect!

[quasi storm]

Almost!

Still a stray black box here and there

[manic basin]

Doing a kickflip...

[quaint jacinth]

does Killer Instinct gold still crash in round 1

[fair stump]

Now I gotta see if episode one racer is as bonkers fast as I remember

[fair stump]

Yes

[manic basin]

I'm gonna try twin stick!

[orchid nimbus]

nice

that's new

[manic basin]

It's a ....de(s)cent homage!

[fair stump]

Having the c buttons set to my right stick and having to press down on that to go fast is so confusing

[manic basin]

Thank goodness for the Brawler I got donated. C buttons > stick....my brain likes it a lot more.

[sacred valley]

It runs! Rush 2049 works 🙂

[brisk drum]

Yep been playing it hardcore for a few builds now

All Gucci bro

Quake 2 however is now booting

[cunning mantle]

Duke Nukem Zero Hour works too.

[brisk drum]

Quake 2 boots but it’s dark af now

[mild ether]

Excitebike works

Perfectly

[brisk drum]

About to give that a try real quick

[orchid nimbus]

FAQ Decoder updated with new error bit

[sacred valley]

Blast Corps works boots

[daring meteor]

Did anyone else try Custom Robo?

[daring meteor]

Does it

[orchid nimbus]

Custom @zinc dew ?

[worldly flint]

Kirby 64 still black screen in levels?

[sacred valley]

False alarm. It boots now where it didn't before

[fair stump]

Test sheet isn't fully updated and already the No Boot games are the minority now

🎉

[daring meteor]

Custom Robo has broken bg, but boots

And is playable

[quasi storm]

I can't wait until the playable category starts dwindling into completable, then to perfect...

[worn delta]

Probably worth commenting the ones that don't boot because of missing TLB, might make it easier to check the others that may work now

[hearty python]

Seems the update today is a huge step

[sacred valley]

Definitely is!

[quasi storm]

Even though this core is feature incomplete still, I feel that the emulation scene in the N64 department has been blown away 10-fold...

[mild ether]

So many of these work perfectly

Ogre Battle

[brisk drum]

Definitely

[mild ether]

Wait it froze

[sacred valley]

F1 World Grand Prix now boots and is playable

[fair stump]

THPS went straight from no boot to totally playable in one swoop

[quasi storm]

TLB?

[mild ether]

Not sure, started to boot and froze before main menu.

[brisk drum]

Duck dodgers looking good!

[daring meteor]

And so did 1080 technically

And I am 100% certain oot will do the same

[sacred valley]

Yeah I've already seen at least 5 games that went from nothing to fully working

[quasi storm]

Man, the TLB update is going to be huge...

[hearty python]

If the speed is hold, Robert has a work free Christmas 🎅 😂

[quasi storm]

But, maybe I shouldn't get ahead of myself...

[daring meteor]

Honestly, this update is probably just as major lmao

[sacred valley]

For me it definitely is; a couple of my favorites now work 🙂

[quick arch]

Top Gear Rally 2 - Menu are too big but in game it is great

[silent marten]

A few rendering modes, flash saving, controller pak and TLB then bug fixes 🙂

[quasi storm]

I wonder if transfer pack is a possibility

[fair stump]

Do not load Top Gear Hyperbike if you can't look at flashing lights

The entire screen is flashing nonstop ingame

[silent marten]

This will be a major afterthought if it is possible

[quasi storm]

Or the microphone for Hey you Pikachu

[wanton sun]

thank you!

[ocean lily]

just need controller pak saves now

[versed cairn]

Anyone free to try the everdrive cracked jet force Gemini?

I have a feeling it might boot now

[quasi storm]

Or heck, just save states to hold us over.

[mild ether]

was Ridge Racer working perfect?

[orchid nimbus]

never got it to work

[mortal apex]

@worn delta may I send you a dm?

[hasty kayak]

No......

[mild ether]

Is now

[hasty kayak]

Ridge Racer has Graphical issues and doesn't run at Full speed.

[worn delta]

Sure thing

[hasty kayak]

No its not. Black track textures.

[brisk drum]

Lol duck dodgers has issues

[fair stump]

Anyone mind checking ready 2 rumble boxing round 2?

[mild ether]

Looks good to me.

[hasty kayak]

So Black Track Textures look good to you?

[mild ether]

Oh that's not normal eh?

[quasi storm]

Screenshot or it didn't happen...

[mild ether]

Looks like track to me.

[hasty kayak]

No to have Solid Black Track Textures is not right for that game.

[brisk drum]

No one said it was ..

This isn’t even a beta core yet

[daring meteor]

Curious where the black textures in the games that they occur happen from

[quasi storm]

It's all good taco, maybe they weren't familiar with the game?

[daring meteor]

MK64 Thwomps, Glover, Custom Robo, Ridge Racer

[quick arch]

Zelda OOT (not game cube version) and Zelda Majora (not game cube version) are still hangs on JP version at the start of the rom

[hasty kayak]

Who are you aiming that comment at?

[quasi storm]

If I remember correctly, it happens because the rendering mode to draw the texture doesn't exist yet, so it's just black.

[daring meteor]

E4000 or E8000?

I'm talking about E4000 type errors

[brisk drum]

No one in particular I was just trying to diffuse the argument

[mild ether]

It's a nice shade of black though. Like track.

[hasty kayak]

There was no argument?

[brisk drum]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-fighting-no-fight-beat-it-mj-michael-jackson-gif-16119406

[hasty kayak]

But its not right.

[quasi storm]

Calm down guys, come on let's keep testing games

[zinc dew]

I tried Custom Robo but there’s severe graphical issues at the start. The playfield for the battling robots is completely missing.

[mild ether]

I'm kidding. 😄

[carmine kettle]

damn new build already i haavent even played fully on the old build

[daring meteor]

Yeah

[brisk drum]

Forget the old build .. it’s anew day

[quasi storm]

Prepare yourself, this update was a big one...

[zinc dew]

Oh wow really?

[hasty kayak]

That isn't how it should be.

[sacred valley]

Destruction Derby also

[quasi storm]

I know right? understatement of the century.

[gritty current]

What about USA version?

[zinc dew]

Oh sorry I wasn’t being sarcastic lol.

[quasi storm]

Oh haha! You haven't checked it out yet?

[hasty kayak]

Just concerned as people are putting comments on the Test sheet like "Runs at Full Speed" and the game doesn't run at Full Speed. Do you have the Real Hardware to confirm that?

[zinc dew]

Nah my WFH PC died so I’m in the office today.

[quasi storm]

Wait did you just get here? Look at this torrent of comments and replies.

[daring meteor]

Robert has consistantly provided updates every day all September

[mild ether]

I don't remember StarCraft working but it is a bit rough.

[balmy dagger]

Robby gotta work, man! Someone has to make the new Duke Nukem

[daring meteor]

Big props to Robert

And its updates that you try and you see the difference

[mild ether]

Trying to get that first game ready for Christmas.

[hasty kayak]

We now have games that Boot which wouldn't even attempt to now 🙂

[zinc dew]

Yeah, haven’t been a good mod today

I am playing Starfield during lunch lol

[quick arch]

I think they work now but I didn't test my self

[quasi storm]

Take a look at the sheets, the numbers in no boot is dwindling...

[zinc dew]

wow!

That’s great!

[fair stump]

I don't bother writing down performance notes, just major graphical issues and such

[daring meteor]

At this pace it'll be the last game

[zinc dew]

You know that’s great?

[daring meteor]

Hahahaha

[loud tartan]

1080 now working without the save state

[golden pilot]

1080 works straight off now Still no KI2 😢

[zinc dew]

Because we have an amazing team of people here who diligently test and update the spreadsheet!

[brisk drum]

Sound keeps cutting out on me in dk64

[remote hatch]

here should be shadow on track

[hasty kayak]

But there are people that do. Saying something is "Full Speed" yet I test it and see slowdowns that are not there with Real Hardware. I can actually test the Core vs Real HD.

[zinc dew]

I can’t wait until that “Fully Playable” pin is useless with most games working. Should be in a month right?

[hasty kayak]

Yep that is how it looks on Real HW.

[balmy dagger]

That's your hearing going, old man

[quasi storm]

Then do so. That would be very valuable additions to the sheet!

[cerulean elk]

Oh hell yeah! I missed the new core

[zinc dew]

Anyone check Space Station Silicon Valley for the missing energy sprites?

[quasi storm]

I demand a plug.

[hasty kayak]

I have been changing games that I know aren't performing 100% and I am also well aware of how early this core is.

[fair stump]

The ps1 core had that gran turismo video that people used for accuracy, right? I look forward to that with this core

[mild ether]

Don't go on my opinion on perfect for n64 I am heavily saying it looks and plays nice vs what the real thing does.

[hasty kayak]

Who did the video for that? 😉 I will give you a hint.

[fair stump]

That's what I figured 🤣

[mild ether]

Dr Mario is perfect though.

[hasty kayak]

That day was amazing. Robert made changes and got me to compare vs my Real HW 🙂 amazing stuff

[weak sierra]

Just saw Pilotwings 64, Oooooooh yeah!

[viscid nebula]

poggers

[hasty kayak]

Yep updated the sheet for PilotWings 64, intro is missing some graphics and running slowly with Audio popping but at least it boots now!

[mild ether]

WCW nwo revenge!

[cerulean elk]

I walk away for an hour and look what happens lol

[brisk drum]

I’ll check quick

[weak sierra]

Still progress though, nice

[viscid nebula]

lool

[zinc dew]

Thanks, amigo!

[quasi storm]

It's not...

[robust trout]

Ain't no chat cooldown in sight... and apologies if this has been suggested before... but I would love to have an option/toggle to use the dpad as an extra analog stick. I really dislike using an analog stick in menus, and BOY HOWDY do N64 games love making everyone use only the analog stick for everything.

[hasty kayak]

See what I mean now? 🙂

[mild ether]

What is missing?

[zealous hull]

There may be patches you can use?

[quasi storm]

Are you trolling?

[mild ether]

No.

[brisk drum]

De nada , and unfortunately crystal are still not visible

[daring meteor]

Dr Mario has transparency issues

[zinc dew]

Thank you anyways!

[hasty kayak]

This is perfect, looks like track 😉

[daring meteor]

More minor than Ridge racer tho

[sly wasp]

Probably already answered as I'm still behind in reading this thread but in case it hasn't been answered: ini crt settings not needed here (240p sony bvm crt).

[quasi storm]

The press any button prompt has a black box around it as does the score counter. Minor, but not perfect.

[sly wasp]

why 4mb?

[brisk drum]

Thanks

[mild ether]

Didn't even notice.

[daring meteor]

Star Wars Racer is Expansion Pack enchanted and plays on interlaced if you're using it

Unfourtenatly interlaced isn't properly implemented rn

[ocean lily]

never noticed before that it seems the splash screens and menus run in Top Gear Rally run at 480i but only appear to render at 240p

[hasty kayak]

Top Gear Rally 2 has a weird Ratio going on with its intro screens but it BOOTS 🙂

[daring meteor]

(Ofc don't set it to 4MB in the list )

[brisk drum]

Ken Griffey jr slugfest fully playable now

[viscid nebula]

Star Wars Racer is Expansion Pack enchanted

kek

[cerulean elk]

I’m taking 2049 as a sign of a good day

Needed it today!

[daring meteor]

I mean

[quasi storm]

All good man! It's the details that count.

[daring meteor]

That's what it says haha

[hasty kayak]

Resident Evil 2 shows Expansion Pack as detected!! but Crashes when you select New Game

[sonic junco]

Do we think that maybe you could get the anti-aliasing effect with the same type of filters we use for interpolation?

[quasi storm]

It does help a little bit.

But mostly with 2D graphics. The 3D graphics are not as affected.

[fair stump]

Previous builds I was able to get into the intro cutscene

[brisk drum]

Try the Japanese version

[fair stump]

Maybe try to not push a button for a couple seconds when each screen shows up?

[quasi storm]

RE2 was a mixed bag for me. I couldn't get past the main menu. Sometimes getting further than other times. It was quite bizarre.

[fair stump]

RE2 US is very touchy

[brisk drum]

Ready 2 rumble boxing still not booting, well it boots but freezes

[hasty kayak]

RE 2 is a difficult one for the Real HW from what I remember reading.

Its a big game with a tonne of compression used for the Video and Audio to make it "fit" onto the Cartridge.

[quasi storm]

So what you're saying is someone needs to stop bumping the dang cartridge?

[oblique remnant]

Yuke Yuke is still making trouble at the start screen

[quasi storm]

(dreams of a core where you can cartridge tilt Goldeneye on the mister)

[fair stump]

Booting now. This had the nintendo sports label so I'm wondering what it's like

[tropic sand]

Excite bike runs now....

[fair stump]

This actually runs and looks really good

[cerulean elk]

So is today Christmas? Lol

[hasty kayak]

mmmm yeah

[brisk drum]

Rip mamba !

[mortal panther]

More like 12 days of Christmas

...and counting

[hasty kayak]

time for the Video Game Esoterica Christmas Special featuring "IVE GOT A NINTENDO 64444444!!"

[lament escarp]

Turok is supposed to have a hud right? Does anybody know why it's still missing?

[languid dune]

Holy crap! So many games working now! Time to get testing!

[fair stump]

Monaco grand prix booting now with very creepy headless drivers 😆

[brisk drum]

South Park rally boots but freezes

Progress

The other two south park games don’t even boot

[fair stump]

This is actually really playable but look at these amazing graphics 😄

That was marked as TLB, that must be incorrect, right?

[brisk drum]

Space invaders 64 now boots

[cerulean elk]

I’m starting to think Robert just finished the core months ago and now drip feeds us his revisions

[brisk drum]

Oh yeah she works!

[daring meteor]

Fake TLB

[mortal panther]

That's how he 'finds' all these problems so quickly on a daily basis. He already found them months ago. 😉

[mortal apex]

I got the Dinosaur Planet restoration running with the latest core. Tried it yesterday, the expansion pak was not detected but now it's almost playable.

[compact depot]

Does OoT (Non GC) boot now?

[daring meteor]

No

[lament escarp]

Didn't for me. I'm also annoyed by the wrongly colored buttons.

[lean spruce]

hey bakc home and just loaded OOT with todays build. OOT intro is looking very rough. Like it has nonly three colors on the ground with massive banding. Sorry if its been pointed out already

[daring meteor]

Yeah dithering and LOD are probably needed

[mortal apex]

I say almost because of this:

[lean spruce]

no, it think its worse that just that missing. Its looking so much worse. Like you watch a picture on an old computer with a graphics card that can only show 8 colors

[daring meteor]

Dithering and LOD are p important

[languid dune]

Nice! Pokemon Puzzle League is fixed as well!

[lament escarp]

Item pickup is fixed, but kokiri satan eyes remain.

[languid dune]

The cursor no longer blocks your view of the blocks behind it.

[chrome quest]

Space Station Silicon Valley sprites for pickups still missing

[versed cairn]

The ground is made up of 2 textures in normal ocarina of time. We only have 1 so far

That’s why it looks weird

[fair stump]

Look at dem cheeks 👀

[oblique remnant]

I didn't know there was the Duke Nukem Voice in that game? Was that Different in the PAL Version ? 😄

[random portal]

I think I remember seeing someone play Smash Remix on the core. How do I get it to run?

[daring meteor]

Get the core to run or the game to run?

[weary palm]

Best game, best font. ❤️

[random portal]

the game

[versed cairn]

Which is the worst n64 game. Carmegetton or super man?

[random portal]

Carmageddon isn't that bad

just cause of the censor?

[midnight void]

what weird phrasing lol

[weary palm]

I had to try it. The control was horrible.

Compared to the PC version

[languid dune]

1080º time! Time to bust out my Tommy Hilfiger clothes. 🤘

[eternal island]

it might be one hack away from being decent

but i don't think anything can fix superman 64

maybe a trash can

[manic basin]

Episode 1 Racer will accept the RRDUAL code but I can't get the stick on the second controller to register. Womp.

[weary palm]

beta superman 64 is better, they say

[daring meteor]

I know who can fix Superman 64

Lex Luthor

[languid dune]

Work your body, wor-work your body! 🎶

[manic basin]

John Peters. </s>

[weary palm]

Let's krypronot go there

[versed cairn]

I hear it’s not that bad after the first level but the rings intro is such a nightmare

[cerulean elk]

I’d rather have Daryl Strawberry baseball 😂

[weary palm]

I wanna play battlefield 1964

[fair stump]

The number of games I'm switching from No Boot to Playable is absurd

[chrome quest]

Dinomod patch version can get around that.
Dinosaur Planet. I hit d pad buttons to access a map warp

[manic basin]

Also, the LRG version does NOT boot on the core, but the OG does. For Episode 1.

[worn delta]

Anyone checked the PAL exclusives that didn't boot before?

[mortal apex]

Amazing, I'll try that later tonight thanks!

[weary palm]

thanks for the cred ❤️

[languid dune]

@cerulean elk just had a joygasm.

[cerulean elk]

Lol I needed it today!

[vague sun]

63% playable with the number climbing as testers update the sheet. Sweet!

[languid dune]

You earned it!

[daring meteor]

Baseball 2001 seems to require TLB

[lament escarp]

Aydin chronicles gets through the entire intro without freezing now.

[cerulean elk]

I can’t remember if Castlevania games are TLB but I haven’t seen them mentioned so I assume they are still no boot?

[daring meteor]

Yeah all the All Star Baseball games seem to require TLB

[languid dune]

Yeah, still no boot on my end.

[daring meteor]

Might be worth to go through all the remaining games and check for TLB

[vague sun]

Not tested yet on the sheet.

[cerulean elk]

Saving the best for last obv

[fair stump]

Duke nukem zero hour is a third person shooter?!

[inner bronze]

New goal: Core in full release by christmas

[cerulean elk]

And a bad one at that

[daring meteor]

Castlevania requires TLB

Castlevania 2 requires TLB

Holy, we might be getting to that moment

[lean spruce]

Rayman 2: Ludlums and blue lazers still invisible. Menu is also invisible

But Blobox eyes are fixed

[uneven dagger]

Can confirm that while Dr Mario plays well, I do not play Dr Mario well. Hopefully that's something Robert can address in a future build 😉

[cerulean elk]

That’s what I thought but I can’t remember them all in my head

[languid dune]

Nice Cruis'n Exotica plays now!

It's like F-Zero with the track floating the air!

[viscid nebula]

star wars pod racer works

[lament escarp]

It's really hard not too play -quest64- and aydin chronicles too far, as you cannot save yet. They're really fun.

[hexed knot]

This mess of a game is playable now.

[quaint rune]

Is that woods tiger ?

[lament escarp]

Btw brians pink text is also fixed

[daring meteor]

Robert didn't mention that one

[languid dune]

Cruis'n Zero

[daring meteor]

There's some TLB games that Robert didn't mention, like Castlevania, Castlevania 2, All Star Baseball

[paper orchid]

Oh right, new core version huh

I need to go punish my sins again

[daring meteor]

I think most of the unplayable games RN are TLB games

[odd vector]

Does Bomberman 64 Boot now?

[mild ether]

Puzzle Bobble still looks like a Atari 2600 game.

[paper orchid]

the civil engineer that decided that cliffside roads don't need a guard rail needs to be fired

[hexed knot]

Nope

[odd vector]

😢

[cerulean elk]

I gotta stop looking at racing games

I’m now trying to buy a hydro Thunder and California speed PCB

And I need more racing arcade boards like I need a pet elephant

[mild ether]

Need Artic Thunder with the built in cooler.

[lean spruce]

how do you take a screenshot on MiSTer again? I have to show you how OOT looks for me. Something must be wrong

[mild ether]

Good game and the fan is a big plus.

[daring meteor]

I think bomberman 64 is TLB too

[cerulean elk]

I don’t need any more racing boards. But that won’t stop me

[daring meteor]

Holy

Like I swear at this point

[tropic sand]

It plays really well

[daring meteor]

You just test a random broken game and its TLB

[mild ether]

Arcade games are like pokemon

[daring meteor]

Let's see, War gods is still broken too right

[silent marten]

It doesn't boot yet, needs flash saves by the looks of things

[desert crow]

win button + prntScn or that + shift for original res

[sly wasp]

or just use your phone camera like most other people

[cerulean elk]

It’s funny how excited I can get about a game I own on cart and on Dreamcast 😂

[topaz otter]

I work for the state, its budget cuts

[mild ether]

Gotta get them all

[fair stump]

The mister remote script makes screenshot taking and sharing super easy, I definitely recommend it

[daring meteor]

Ah no War gods isn't TLB

I think the number of nonbooting, non TLB games is in the single digits

[brisk drum]

Spider-Man still missing textures

[mild ether]

Wonder what makes Puzzle Bobble so broken.

[tropic sand]

Same on beetle racing

[viscid nebula]

ITS A NEW LAP REC ORD

[languid dune]

Jump'n Jim Rivers!...eats dirt.

[brisk drum]

It’s so broken it looks like an Atari 2600 game

[mild ether]

I know right!?

[brisk drum]

Just think of it as a demake

[hasty kayak]

gzz

[mild ether]

Legit looks like a 2600.

[hasty kayak]

Carmageddon 64 is awful man.... compared to the Original on PC its really bad.

[random portal]

maybe because I haven't played it in a while

[hearty python]

Body Harvest seems to go faster in the Intro now. Over 20 FPS where before was 5-7 FPS. But main Game is as slow as before

[random portal]

I know the PC version had super slick driving where you spun out for no reason

[hasty kayak]

The manages to feel lifeless and twitchy at the same time. Everything looks very flat and straight. The censoring doesn't bother me at all but the gameplay is piss poor.

[hexed knot]

ooh, DK64 boots now, and you even get the first couple seconds of the DK Rap before all sound cuts out.

[desert crow]

Homebrew like controller test roms are booting now. no more savestates

[hasty kayak]

PC version looked 10 times better, tracks weren't just flat with sharp edges and yes you could spin out easily but it wasn't twitchy when you steered.

[manic basin]

I got the whole rap. Poor Lanky.

</AndWhenIHaver>

[viscid nebula]

D...K...

DONKEY. KONG.

[carmine kettle]

@desert crow when you doing snac core for saturn.. if you have time

[viscid nebula]

[zealous hull]

Is there a common point of failure when appending entries to the N64-database.txt file? I've added the MD5 value of the romhack in question and auto-detect is failing every time. It is working for entries that already exist.

[hollow rune]

Testing Panda Activate!

[fair stump]

Almost done testing all the no boots

[ripe cargo]

It there a difference in the controller test program thats pinned here, and the one from the HTGDB pack? The one here requires a SS to load, both controller apps in the HTGDB pack are now working.

[fair stump]

Insane improvement overall

[mortal apex]

I added a few in mine, I think its case sensitive (should be lowercase), but other than that idk. I always add new entries at the end.

[sly wasp]

why not just try adding it earlier in the list to eliminate "point of failure" possibility?

[brisk drum]

Flood gates officially opened

[zealous hull]

Ah. I believe I've been pasting it in as all uppercase. That would explain it.

[wanton sun]

can confirm it fully works. completed the full racing series, no issues found 🙂 (PAL version) (edit: transitions screen show garbage, but that's it)

[nova grotto]

Duck dodgers is booting now

[brisk drum]

Yep , it hangs after you collect your first energy atom

[mortal panther]

You're adding the MD5 only for the first 4,096 bytes, right?

[brisk drum]

Kinda of a funny glitch that makes the screen shrink little by little

[nova grotto]

But still Mischief Makers is freezing

[spare meadow]

I am not home right now. Is Killer Instinct Gold working? With the latest core, I mean

[zealous hull]

No, the FAQ says you can add the MD5 for the entire file for custom entries.

[orchid nimbus]

yes either

[mortal panther]

Good to know, thanks

[zealous hull]

I'm nearly positive it's a case issue.

Testing now.

[lean spruce]

can anybody confirm OOT Master Quest looks like this? It looks considerably worse than a few builds ago

[wanton sun]

looks like that currently, the ground is not correct

[mortal panther]

The Orifice of Doom...

[lean spruce]

thanks! It looks like 8 colors GPU

[hollow rune]

The Legend of Zelda and the Orifice of Doom

[desert crow]

if anyone asks you can say Doom works on the core

[viscid gate]

@terse canyon XenoCrisis wouldn’t boot for me unless data cache was off - what settings did you use?

[mild ether]

Once it runs Doom it's officially a thing.

[terse canyon]

standard settings/no changes, you might try resetting a few times to get it to boot

[fair stump]

@hollow rune would you mind testing ready 2 rumble boxing round 2? I don't have that game

[zealous hull]

Yep, case sensitivity issue. When will I ever learn? Thanks very much.

[weary palm]

Shadows under the player seems broken too, somehow.

[zinc dew]

Sorry for my late reply but thank you!

[hollow rune]

On it

[hexed knot]

Oh wow, we jumped over 60 % playable today (63.3 so far)

[fair stump]

One last no boot to test. Currently only 37 games don't boot

[random portal]

I got Smash Remix to run

set CIC to 6103

[daring meteor]

Most of those are TLB

[vapid moat]

Something's wrong with these Venusaurs

[daring meteor]

I suggest we start checking them for TLB

[ripe cargo]

Doesnt boot

[daring meteor]

I checked and Castlevania, All Stars baseball have TLB
War gods doesn't

[wanton sun]

didn't notice that, maybe i should compare with hardware not my memories before saying anything 😅

[terse canyon]

@viscid gate the audio is bit all over the place though

[weary palm]

Seems pretty leafless

[wanton sun]

some pokemons are completly missing 🙂

[daring meteor]

I'm testing all the TLB games

Well

The nonbooting games to check for TLB

[weary palm]

Homebrew?

[versed cairn]

Kk thanks for checking

[desert crow]

yeah i booted 1 and 2 and just ran around for a minute didn't go too deep

[zinc dew]

Any new games to add to the Fully Playable list?

#1096015979055697940 message

Looking for games that function closely to how it would on an original system. I.e. no major issues and you can save your game.

The saving stipulation is important as we effectively say that game is representative of the original experience.

[viscid gate]

Portal 64 boots now

[pallid falcon]

What if the game uses a password system? 😉

[orchid nimbus]

joystick test works without savestate

[hollow rune]

Story mode animations now visible on Dr Mario. Still black boxes other places though

[orchid nimbus]

yup 🙂 it was the first game I tested since I have been the one bugging FPGAZumSpass about it 😄

[fair stump]

The Japanese exclusive sheet is many test versions behind. I bet there would be huge improvements there as well

[zinc dew]

That counts!

[cunning mantle]

240p Testsuite works too.

[hollow rune]

I will go there after I hit some problems I keep seeing on US roms

[viscid gate]

The black boxes on Bangai-O sprites are now gone too

[daring meteor]

I tested every single game not working.

[lean spruce]

Mega Man 64: Another example of the ground looking like it lacks colors.

[daring meteor]

For NTSC-U region.

ECW Hardcore Revolution (USA).z64
Jet Force Gemini (USA).z64
Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (USA) (Rev 2).z64
War Gods (USA).z64
WWF Attitude (USA).z64
WWF War Zone (USA).z64

[modern sleet]

Ooh Q2 boots now

[daring meteor]

These are the only games that don't work that don't need TLB.

[ocean ivy]

Does anyone know a confirmed booting game when using the stable MiSTer.rbf?

[hearty python]

Mission Impossible boots now also

I am on stable

[viscid nebula]

aw diddy kong locked up after beating the triceratops

[daring meteor]

Every single other game I had, that wasn't booting, Crashed/Looped on a TLB access

[viscid nebula]

also when hitting a mountain on a certain angle will cause diddy to stay at that angle

[daring meteor]

So the only games we don't have working, are TLB games, fighting games, OOT and Jet Force Gemini

[terse canyon]

https://youtu.be/JuDUCzt3zss

[daring meteor]

Might be worth to add to the list in some way, through some games only "Trivially" use the TLB

[hollow rune]

Add Deadly Arts to the list of games that look practically perfect. Background got fixed yesterday and the rest of the UI today

[viscid nebula]

diddy locked up again

yuck

[orchid nimbus]

oh nice

[modern sleet]

It begins

[daring meteor]

Might be nice to mention that somewhere haha, so people won't start testing the games that aren't booting as long as Robert didn't start a thing on the TLB

[brisk drum]

Tonic trouble is kinda fun

[vapid moat]

Huh. Guess I'll try to see if this one can be used then:

https://github.com/wermipls/mimi

[orchid nimbus]

@vapid moat locks up

already tested

[vapid moat]

Damnit

[brisk drum]

Gauntlet legends still no boot

Add that to the list

[manic basin]

This is the one time I actually LOVE the c buttons mapped to stick 2... it really helps.

[daring meteor]

Yeah, TLB

[vapid moat]

With Pokemon Stadium now booting, how long until we get to explore Transfer Pak-related features?

[viscid gate]

Some of the other homebrew shows life

[nova grotto]

Whenever I try to run this game I get an error detected or something like thtat

[daring meteor]

Wait no actually on gauntlet legends I'm not sure

[paper orchid]

Alright, no noticeable change with S&P

[daring meteor]

Oh nevermind Robert mentioned it yeah

[paper orchid]

One errant pixel in training and a missing background in 1-3 I was hoping would be affected

[manic basin]

Sealed that choice for me. Thanks!

[zenith orchid]

does it go in game? can you show FPS and error code?

[hollow rune]

Charlie's Blast Factory bow playable

[daring meteor]

I can't belive the core reached this state that quickly

[orchid nimbus]

you sound excited 😄

[vapid moat]

What state would it be during December...

[daring meteor]

At this point I incline to belive next week every non TLB game will be bootable

[viscid nebula]

never forgetti

[tulip coral]

Hey @wanton sun I was wondering, had there been any aspect of the N64 core that you have implemented and thought you wish you had done for the PS1? Or are they totally dissimilar? Absolutely amazing work btw the progress is phenomenal

[daring meteor]

It's just Zelda, jet force gemini, and wresling games

That's it

[hollow rune]

Only because the status changed. I don't really care about the game itself.

[vapid moat]

Such a fine spagetti, I'd never forgetti

[viscid nebula]

lol was that really 3 months ago

shit

robert can you recode my life

[mortal panther]

Apparently where he lives, Christmas is in August.

[viscid nebula]

🤣

[odd vector]

wut jet force is running?

[native mesa]

games arent loading for me anyomore. do i need a new unstable main?

[viscid nebula]

you mean july

[daring meteor]

Jet force is the only thing not running

[viscid nebula]

smash remixxxxx

[desert crow]

yeah seems playable, a little slow. that's Doom 2. no error codes

[orchid nimbus]

Donkey Kong Demo

[hollow rune]

Command & Conquer now playable

[mortal panther]

Command & Conker

[brisk drum]

Brohmand and conquer

[zenith orchid]

Very nice! Do you know if its comparable to how it plays on original hw?

[orchid nimbus]

homebrew doesn't like my controller

weird

[desert crow]

nope haven't tried it on real hw. was just testing some homebrew

mame controls didn't work for me either

[cunning mantle]

Namco Museum Galaga finally works.

[hollow rune]

@fair stump @hexed knot @pallid falcon Did the sheet get messed up? All the boots turned to playable

[hollow rune]

@worn delta

[fair stump]

I haven't looked at the sheet in a bit, looked fine last I saw

[vapid moat]

We gonna party hard here when Brian's added

[fair stump]

Yeah, looks like the bottom counter is at least missing to me

Somebody should be able to revert it

[dusty tusk]

Oh neat. I don't think DK64 needs to be expansion pak patched

Still has a tendancy to lose audio

[hollow rune]

I can do it. I found the point where it messed up. Am I allowed to @worn delta?

[orchid nimbus]

Mission Ass-ault

[brisk drum]

https://tenor.com/view/beavis-yay-gif-26220052

He said ass

[cerulean elk]

Good day. More N64 cores, I just bought a 2LB dry aged rib eye for dinner. Rush 2049 works!

I’m like @languid dune when he got F Zero 🤣

[hexed knot]

Restoring an earlier version of the Spreadsheet, only 3 versions old.

[orchid nimbus]

why?

who messed up?

[hexed knot]

All "Boots" were changed to "Playable"

[orchid nimbus]

who ever is doing this @#@#@# stop it

[dusty tusk]

Anyone who has gotten patches to work consistently, got Densha de Go English or F-Zero X Expansion Kit working?

[fair stump]

It feels surprisingly easy to mess up the sheet, gotta be extra careful

[dusty tusk]

Also, south park rally boots

[manic basin]

Did it hang for you at the text screen?

[dusty tusk]

Locks up at the content advisory screen though.

[manic basin]

Yep

[orchid nimbus]

Persona for N64

[hasty kayak]

This is why having so many people edit the Sheet will cause issues.

[dusty tusk]

Ooh, THPS1 finally boots

[hasty kayak]

This happened before and I had to recover it.

[mortal apex]

I don't think so, I'm still on MiSTer_unstable_20230818_116413 and games load.

[dusty tusk]

Sometimes a game will Bork everything and I have to restart the core

[mortal panther]

The most important game now working!

[hollow rune]

Excitebike got past the n sports logo

[paper orchid]

For some reason now I have Superman stuck in my head

I should revisit THPS1

(I need to 100% the remakes too)

[dusty tusk]

The remake is soooo good

Holy crap pilot wings boots now

[hollow rune]

Excitebike playable

[surreal summit]

Rayman 2 is frustratingly close to being fully playable. No subtitles or 2D items (Lums, Etc.) display.

[dusty tusk]

Pilot wings is a bit glitchy, but it functions

[chrome quest]

Is smash remix on the testing sheet? Does it go by another name?

[random portal]

I only saw 19XX

oh wait

the testing sheet

I assumed the database

[dusty tusk]

Mario Golf boots, but locks up past logos

[daring meteor]

TLB whoooooo

[native mesa]

Are there any patches to remove young link's yelling from the gamecube version of OOT?

[random portal]

guess not

[hollow rune]

It is pretty rough.

[brisk edge]

Smash remix was working last I saw, haven't tried it myself though

[hexed knot]

Yeah, same with Mario Tennis. Similar issues I'd guess.

Though it requires the data cache to be off for Mario Tennis to show logos.

[chrome quest]

Is 240p test suite not released yet?

[hexed knot]

Playable ™️

[hearty python]

Roadsters is now also playable and perhaps a good testpoint for the missing stuff, Crazy grafik glitches

[brisk drum]

Pod racer is all kinds of messed up on my crt

[daring meteor]

Disable Expansion Pak

Fixes it

[hollow rune]

I marked it that for sure.

[brisk drum]

Tight booty

[dusty tusk]

Cna confirm, Doom 64's red sprites weren't fixed by recent update

[brisk drum]

Nope …

[daring meteor]

Reboot

[brisk drum]

Neither was quake but quake II now boots

[brisk drum]

Ugh that show is so overrated

I’m amazed there isn’t a reboot n64 game

Superman 64 seems the same

[eternal island]

i love that show

games were bad though

[daring meteor]

What

[eternal island]

well i did, years ago

[brisk drum]

Reboot was an early cg cartoon

Boomer show

[velvet nexus]

I think I was just at the generation point that it didn't jive with me

That, and beast wars

[random portal]

Xeno Crisis got to the menu with CIC 6106

sorry, past the language select and the first frame of the intro

[brisk drum]

I love beast wars

[quick arch]

there is some alpha, beta but not sure if it is the state of release

[brisk drum]

Shame the game still doesn’t boot ..

Well it boots but crashes

[dusty tusk]

It's not mother 64, but Shigesato Itoi's fishing game seems to work

[random portal]

I'm trying to brute force booting Xeno Crisis. This time with COC 6103. Intro made it past a few more frames. Testing method: Continuously resetting game

[iron trail]

It's happening because the filter doesn't contain the entire dataset in a table. So when you sort a column the others are seen as separate datasets and not part of the whole set for each sheet. The owner or someone with with edit rights can remove the filter, select all, and add a new filter that contains all columns. This would need to be done for each sheet. Then sorting and filtering will work correctly/as expected.

[rocky spindle]

How soon before we see the N64 SNAC available to buy, do we think?

[languid dune]

Forsaken 64 plays now.

[brisk drum]

Nice find

[elfin depot]

MisterAddon's 4 player Snac 64 is coming soon

[languid dune]

Still no War Gods...

[weary palm]

Not anymore. We can probably remove that patch.

[lament escarp]

Sadly the dk rap lost audio after a few seconds for me. But the game booted without any patches.

[weary palm]

Why? 😂

[languid dune]

The next "golden goose" for me is getting Mischief Makers past the title screen.

[random portal]

Super B-Daman - Battle Phoenix 64 now has working background and Kanji is visible.

[languid dune]

Because he's a little punk!

[dusty tusk]

It seems any if the cutscenes eventually kills the audio

[worn delta]

Just seeing this now, did the issue get sorted or does it need reverted?

[vapid moat]

Too powerful for now

[desert crow]

there are some patches that restores the changed stuff in the GC versions of Zelda. for the people complaining about button colors https://krikzz.com/forum/index.php?topic=5161.0

[hollow rune]

Fixed thanks to @hexed knot

[iron trail]

This is what I mean, see how only three columns have the "filter" icon? That means they're the only columns that are part of a filter table.

It's easy to correct. On each sheet, do the following:
Click into any cell with data
Select all (ctrl-a or cmd-a)
Data > Remove Filter
Data > Create a Filter

Then you'll see each column has the "filter" icon – sorting/filtering will apply to the entire range and will not mess anything up 🙂

[tulip coral]

https://tenor.com/view/omg-yes-nitrous-kids-gif-15888241

[hollow rune]

Is it okay if I fix it if I know what went wrong

[iron trail]

I'm happy to fix it but I don't want to overstep 👀

[hexed knot]

Alternatively, we could freeze the columns, and disallow any sorting or filtering. There's no need to change ordering of the USA games table.

[dusty tusk]

Not sure how long this has been the case but Onegai Monsters seems to be working

[worn delta]

I should have mentioned, don't do any filtering or ordering as that is universal - not just for you. So it impacts everyone. You are better making a copy of you need to do that

[iron trail]

I don't want to filter, I'm trying to help correct the present filter so that when others do filter/sort, it doesn't mess up the sheet.

It gets messed up because it's incorrectly made

I agree people shouldn't be filtering, but it's going to continue to happen

Correcting it will prevent the need to revert the sheet and lose work.

[dusty tusk]

Is Onegai Monsters just Pokémon

[languid dune]

I made it through Lanky Kong's part of the song! Then the audio cut out after that...

[dusty tusk]

But off brand

[hearty python]

Rush2 also working now. Really fast too

[storm void]

Not sure if anyone said, but Command & Conquer shows signs of life 🙂

[pine apex]

Nice crash Calyfighter 63 1/3

[stuck summit]

Idk if this was mentioned already but this is expected. As with the PS1, the N64 has a pretty poor color depth. And just like PS1, the console used heavy dithering to simulate a higher color depth. We're not sure if higher color depths will be supported, since it might not fit.

[weary palm]

Emulators had problem with desynced audio in the DK64 intro not so long ago.

[fair stump]

EVA online?

[iron trail]

@hasty kayak please see this reply, again, I am not trying to filter. I'm trying to help prevent you guys from needing to revert the sheet when someone does filter/sort. It's happening because it's incorrectly formatted.

[hollow rune]

Saw it earlier. It is playable

[daring meteor]

Memory manager heavily implies TLB

[worn delta]

Ah, I see what you mean. I wonder if I should apply this or remove filtering all together

[dusty tusk]

This has the potential to be the first core that reaches full compatibility before any software emulator

[hollow rune]

Lode Runner is now playable. Lode Runner is also pretty ugly

[fair stump]

Removing filtering seems fine to me

[cerulean elk]

A classic and needs more love

It’s like their one game I never hear anyone mention outside of this channel

[weary palm]

GoldenEye is my golden goose

[iron trail]

Personally I would remove and reapply the correct filter, otherwise others are bound to mess it up.

For example, if someone adds an empty column, and later sorts... it's going to separate it into two data sets and get messy again.

Removing and re-adding the filter to the entire dataset will allow it to be sorted without messing things up.

[storm void]

I never played it on N64... "playable" is a relative term 😂

[hollow rune]

The NES one is fine.

[languid dune]

Which is sad, because it's probably my favorite Treasure game. Sin and Punishment 2 on the Wii is the clostest contender.

[cerulean elk]

I was just playing Gunstar Heroes Saturday

[languid dune]

Gunstar Super Heroes is also great.

Doesn't get enough love either.

[cerulean elk]

I always use that game as an emulation / FPGA example as the first level has some awesome scrolling / effects especially once you slide down the backside of the pyramid after you beat that block boss

[covert bough]

played that one on everdrive it was awesome, had never known there was a sequel until I found it

[viscid nebula]

I have a mario 64 coop split screen versoin where both players have infinite lives, health and can mid-air jump if anyone is interested

dm me for the goods, great for kids

[safe robin]

Wow, if robby wants to keep the playable games list updated he has a lot of work to do after this update

[fair stump]

I vote Robby is the only one allowed to edit the spreadsheet and we just have to ping him the updates

[native mesa]

LOL you know why

[paper orchid]

I bet you loved the GBA version of Link to the Past

[paper orchid]

GSH? There's the first boss (in the opening level) that rendered incorrectly on a lot of emulators for the longest time, the status bar got all kinds of fucked up

[zinc dew]

Once that list gets too big then it’s value is lost and the spreadsheet is the one source of truth.

The idea was it to be like a small sampling of titles early users can use to know what to play. People who don’t want to test and just play a game.

[safe robin]

I'll try rocket robot on wheels now, thanks for the recommendation yesterday 😎

[native mesa]

Lol is link dying in Majora's Mask som anti piracy measure?

[zinc dew]

I may have over sold it now that I’ve played more LOL

[native mesa]

Check the author. https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/7320/

[oblique remnant]

Id actually love to filter but didn't do because then the sheet gets messed up for everyone right? so personal filter views are not possible?

[paper orchid]

That's Minish Cap though

LttP GBA has plenty of it too

[native mesa]

Oh I'd never play that version

It has the wrong pixel ratio

[paper orchid]

(I also don't fault you for that patch, I used that patch lmao)

[primal bolt]

I think its a bug that happens when the cart is loose in the slot

[iron trail]

Yes, if you want your own, just make a copy. The current filter is wrong, so not only does it change for everyone, it messes up the order (the Name and Notes columns are separate from the other sortable columns). If it's corrected, at least sorting/filtering will sort things correctly.

[hollow rune]

All N64 Madden games are now playable

[chrome quest]

Now THIS is Pod Racing!
Amazing this works

[paper orchid]

I thought it was because every copy of Majora's Mask is personalized

BEN

[dusty tusk]

Mario Advance 4 + eReader + no voice patches is the definitive version

[oblique remnant]

nice , did you have to turn down polling rate to 3ms of that raphnet adapter because default is 6ms?

[chrome quest]

When I got it I downloaded the firmware software and set it all as low as would go. No issues, feels great. 2 Player at the ready! (And on offscreen Dualsense to get Port 3 for the Dual Stick mode)

[weary palm]

Too low of a resolution. 😉

[marble cargo]

Puyo Puyo Sun 64 is working!

Puyo Puyo~n Party still doesn't work though.

[oblique remnant]

do you see any downsides compared to the Raphnet V3?

[weary palm]

Does Jet Force Gemini work without crashes?

[hollow orbit]

That’s what my wife said about my New Year’s resolution to lose 5 lbs

[daring meteor]

Its the only game to not boot

[weary palm]

Oh

Sad

[oblique remnant]

With flash support it will maybe?!

[daring meteor]

We can hope hahah

[chrome quest]

Sorry, downsides of which. I have the Raphnet V3, so compared to what...?
Generally, can't see any issues, other than perhaps the Pak compatibility but who can say

[daring meteor]

It is a flash game

[nimble needle]

[silent marten]

Smash Remix is pretty awesome

[chrome quest]

@worn delta Request to add a ROM to the testing database. Smash Remix.
I'm no Smash player, but seems "the" major mod for that game, probably alot of interest if the Discord is anything to go by!

[orchid nimbus]

problem with those things is - if it's an IPS patch and they don't give the target MD5/SHA1 then you got so many different versions

[worn delta]

I think the best thing for new/missing patched roms would to get the files added to the HTGDB pack so there is one a standard version out there. People adding their own patched versions is a recipe for confusion

[native mesa]

I think it's a flawed system in general

[chrome quest]

If someone knows how to get it added to HTGDB then, that would at least be consistent with the system, such as it is.
The ROM patcher they provide on the main site of this mod does check the SHA1 of the base ROM. Doesn't report the output anticipate value, but should be valid even if we had to specify Remix v1.4.0 or something.

No need to add at all, just thought it worth asking

[oblique remnant]

sorry my bad there is only V3. single or dual. obviously dual makes more sense

[cerulean elk]

Fancy

[silent marten]

I just patched it to 1.4.1

Which is the latest

[hexed knot]

Eventually, will the real solution be a move away from using the text database in general?

[silent marten]

No one knows, right now it is the way that it works

[chrome quest]

So it is. Missed that on the top of the screen. Case in point for version control

[marble cargo]

Playing Pokémon Stadium 2. The Pokéball Cup was nice enough to give me a Smeargle with Spore lmao

[hearty python]

All Rush Games work now. Mega Man 64 works now also

[hexed knot]

eyyy, we cracked 200 games playable

[hearty python]

Really big progress today

[worn delta]

F1 Racing Championship (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).z64 is worth a check for anyone at their MiSTer, wasn't booting a couple of builds back and is last exclusive PAL game that isn't

[daring meteor]

Let's first check for TLB

[brisk drum]

TL BIZZLE

The final frontier

[worn delta]

Good point, if it is a TLB then worth noting

[surreal summit]

Anybody else using the MiSTer Addons YC encoder? I get a grayscale image and I'm wondering if someone else that uses it can confirm.

[orchid nimbus]

well.... looks like today was a huge jump forward

[iron trail]

Always seems to be!

[marble cargo]

Aside from the obvious inaccuracies, Pokémon Stadium 2 is working pretty smoothly.

[hexed knot]

I'd say.

Yesterday/Today so far

[modern sleet]

Robert said, 100% playable by december right? 1 meaning one hundred %?

[silent marten]

At this rate you are not wrong 🙂

[hexed knot]

yeah he thinks in boolean

[wraith estuary]

Multiple people have mentioned Excitebike 64 already, but I just want to emphasize how smooth it's running in this core. This is a game that never seemed right to me on any emulator. The game would stutter, the music would speed up and slow down and the sound would always distort. I was worried it would be the same issues in this core, but it seems to be running great! ❤️

[daring meteor]

No TLB, hangs on gameplay start but boot works

NTSC version didn't hang for me tho

Its in a terrible state but runs there

[chrome quest]

Is there a definative list for TLB? Anything that has it NTSC, is PAL the same?

[daring meteor]

There is not, but

I tried to check all the non booting NTSC games, and out of them, only found a couple that don't use TLB

[orchid nimbus]

Armorines Conker's Bad Fur Day FIFI soccer 64 (USA) (EN,FR,DE) Gauntlet Legends (USA) Goldeneye 007 (USA) Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine (USA) Jeremy McGrath Supercross 2000 (USA) Monaco Grand Prix (USA) NBA Jam 2000 (USA) NFL Quarterback Club 99 (USA) Paper Mario (USA) Perfect dark (USA) Shadow Man (USA) South Park (USA) Star Wars Episode I - Battle for naboo (USA) Turok - Rage Wars (USA) Turok 2 - Seeds of Evil (USA)

and probably more

or less

[daring meteor]

ECW Hardcore Revolution (USA).z64
Jet Force Gemini (USA).z64
Legend of Zelda, The - Ocarina of Time (USA) (Rev 2).z64
War Gods (USA).z64
WWF Attitude (USA).z64
WWF War Zone (USA).z64
These are the ones that don't use TLB

[wraith estuary]

FIFI

[daring meteor]

The rest use TLB

[weary palm]

[cerulean elk]

A classic. Can’t wait to get back into some treasure on N64. Lotta requests to see the game running which is nice. Means people remember it

[chrome quest]

When did your attempt at F1 Racing Championship (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).z64 crash @daring meteor
Owl beat me to it, adding playable now too.

[daring meteor]

Right this moment

It crashed when I started a race

When the 1 came up

[eternal ravine]

@cerulean elk
Mischief Makers is a strange game but good
Gonna put some time in that one when the core gels

[chrome quest]

Probably something inconsistent then. Visuals are very buggy. I left the car stationary as I type. There is now a whirlpool under the car

[daring meteor]

Yeah, so playable but buggy

@orchid nimbus If you want, you can add some more TLB games (All the non booting games that aren't the ones I mentioned), but some TLB games initialize the TLB and never touch it, at least according to robert, and thus are patchable

[cerulean elk]

I think it was TOO experimental for its own good

[eternal ravine]

Treasure definitely drank some sake before making that
And while making it

[orchid nimbus]

Kasher until there is a defenitive list I'll just keep that list in the FAQ

[daring meteor]

I tested games for TLB in an emulator

There's also some more games Robert mentioned

[hearty python]

Frogger 2 Starts now, but not playable cause crazy grafik bugs

[daring meteor]

The ultimate Mega Drive game

[mystic galleon]

@fallen sparrow Dear mister ninja, sorry to bother I'm a bit drunk you see, nether-the-less Beatle adventure racing sort of kind of works! Omg, quick make a video singing its praises and you'll get internet fame and people will send you their underware. Much love xx

By the way, if anyone's looking for more games to get working, those few games robert mentioned (And close ones) probably are patchable to be working

Robert is a machine

A meaningful update

Every

Single

Day

In September

[severe rock]

Nintendo64 emulators had teams of like 5 people

[brisk drum]

I agree with the list

[hearty python]

40 Winks (Europe) is strange. With PAL Setting no Picture, but with NTSC Setting show life ( Not for use on this System)

[severe rock]

The legendary near said the 16bit gen was the last one where you could build an accurate and complete emulator by yourself, that anything beyond that required a team. I guess he never met Robert

[eternal ravine]

Maybe it's all hoax and it's running on the ARM side

[brisk drum]

I wish I was a bard so I could compose Melodie’s to tell the legend of Robert Peip

[severe rock]

You could always write haikus

And play rap rythms in the background

Modern day bard

[silent marten]

Do you have the correct boot1.rom?

[daring meteor]

The proto isn't TLB for me

[hearty python]

Ohh, i need two roms ?

[brisk drum]

https://youtu.be/AmoW-fNZxCY?si=MTaoS-o-jsES3iV_

It’s been done

[daring meteor]

You need a PAL pif

[hearty python]

Ok, i take a look later. Thought i had an universal bios

[silent marten]

@hearty python check ya DM

[hearty python]

OK

[cerulean elk]

Off topic steak for you 🤣

[brisk drum]

Look at the marbling on that mofo!

[cerulean elk]

Two pounds of aged prime rib eye locally raised

[native mesa]

Someone made a special build for it

[brisk drum]

Pure delicious !

[cerulean elk]

Living it up today

[brisk drum]

Hell yeah!

[dreamy ridge]

okay boys, what are the choicest game selects for today's build?

i'm scrollin and seeing pilotwings works?!

[brisk drum]

So many new games booting .. but I’m gonna dig into rogue squadron

[daring meteor]

It all works

[hollow rune]

So many games moved into playable today. Really amazing

[cerulean elk]

Gonna be a busy video tomorrow night

[hollow rune]

It is really buggy, but yeah

[brisk drum]

https://tenor.com/view/queen-bey-lemonade-beyonce-opening-door-flood-gif-5380328

[hollow rune]

Like stuttery and not fun to play

[fair stump]

"Tons of new working games! (For real this time)"

[daring meteor]

The next update that's gonna show this amount of games suddenly playable is the very first TLB update

[cerulean elk]

Lol you try churning out fresh titles every time 🤣

[daring meteor]

The next and possibly only, haha

[dreamy ridge]

lmao! dang, beetle adventure racing playable, been waiting for that one!

[daring meteor]

This isn't even from today haha

[eternal ravine]

Conker and Perfect Dark seem like two that really push the hardware

[dreamy ridge]

yeah both were pretty late in the life cycle

[native mesa]

Gamma correction would be a nice update

[stone pilot]

Games that push the N64 that hard are rare

[brisk drum]

Use the built in gamma settings

[hearty oar]

Pun intended?

[manic basin]

Ribeye core wen?!

[brisk drum]

I bet Robert could rig it up somehow

[hollow rune]

I wonder what is the problem with Mystical Ninja working

[eternal ravine]

We should get a list of all cooking-related games across MiSTer cores

I know PSX/PS1 has some

Burger Burger!

[fair stump]

Vamp's error code checker could probably tell you

[hollow rune]

You're right I keep neglecting that

[eternal ravine]

Darn, Cooking Mama was after N64

[chilly ember]

[chrome quest]

Checking PAL games, "G.A.S.P!! Fighters' NEXTream". Apparently has a US version, but does anyone have it?
(It is called "Deadly Arts" in NTSC. NTSC already tested, known to be working).

[hexed knot]

Since I like data visualization, graphed out the Spreadsheet with what little graphing skills I have. Counts are from the EOD, starting August 15th (when we started keeping count), ending today.

The counts themselves.

[dense chasm]

Will there be a way to adjust stick sensitivity in the core eventually, or is that a higher level issue?

[modern sleet]

Check your DM

[chrome quest]

Tested all the PAL versions of games which are "No Boot" on NTSC. Hopefully if others boot NTSC they will PAL, still needs checking of course

One case PAL worked where NTSC did not, BattleTanx - Global Assault. All else the same

[hollow rune]

Good night all. I tested my paws out. Love that we are making this happen

[lone geyser]

mimi (the newer controller test) also boots but freezes after a few seconds.

[orchid nimbus]

correct

[cerulean elk]

Fat Programmable Grill Array

[orchid nimbus]

very nice overview @hexed knot 😄

[cerulean elk]

Core options include tarragon rosemary compound butter toggle on/off

[orchid nimbus]

people who drown their steak in butter should be executed

I went to a steak restaurant once ... they drowned my steak!

[lone geyser]

Apologies, didn't see that it was tested

[orchid nimbus]

well I said later that it didn't work

but the chat has been moving a breakneck speeds today

@hexed knot it might be a good idea to so a sum of column and then convert to percentages in case people add entries

[weary beacon]

Batman Beyond booted and played great. Might give super man a run for it's money.

[quasi storm]

Batman beyond: Why is this bar lying on the floor?

[grave island]

I'm having trouble getting the Zelda games to boot with recent releases via the N64 updater script.

Diddy Kong and Mario Kart work, but not the Zelda games.

They worked before.

[severe rock]

Not what I had in mind but this is pretty cool

[topaz otter]

And he's not even using his full power. He has a power level over one million.

[severe rock]

He has a final form???

[grave island]

Also keeps saying auto-detect failed for the Zelda games.

[weary beacon]

zelda games work for me. Using gamecube master quest editions

[grave island]

I have the lodgenet roms.

[amber saffron]

I had a similar issue with some games. I found that resetting settings for the core fixed it.

Maybe some old settings that aren't right anymore or something

[weary beacon]

then change your rom names to match the database txt file

[amber saffron]

Huh that thing is name based? Interesting

[grand niche]

ive discovered my 360 pad wont work with the core, but plugged in an xbox one pad and it works..

[safe robin]

I wonder. When we get game pack support, will they also sometimes get corrupted without any reason like on the real n64? 😅 After all those years I'm still not sure if the card packs were just bad or if some games just did not save Correctly sometimes

[grave island]

So I had to retry loading the game many times for it to properly catch it.

[safe robin]

I am knew every friend of mine and my self-confidence had problems with the memory packs background then

[worldly quartz]

so the n64 database is based on what romset?

[desert crow]

not name based, it's hash based. try loading the regular rom first. that should make it pick your right cic

[worldly quartz]

so that I can debug why the supported saving games don't work for me

[weary beacon]

Do you think the implementation of Multitexturing is going to resolve most of the missing textures ?

[brisk edge]

most of the time I think it was just the battery running dry, at least on the official ones

[placid quiver]

So what's the explanation behind the Face crashing Super Mario 64? I know it needs a patch then it works

[mortal panther]

The ROM needs a patch to skip past that portion of the game. It utilizes a feature that is not yet implemented in the core.

[safe robin]

The face in the main menu you can manipulate uses special functions that are not implemented yet

[worldly quartz]

yeah it uses the dreaded TLB

[placid quiver]

Ah I wondered if it was tlb

[worldly quartz]

Too bad patching out TLB will be hard to do, like changing its use to access the memory directly

[placid quiver]

Sounds like TLB will be implemented at some point but may have to be a separate build

[worldly quartz]

Maybe in the future all those games will be reversed engineered and we'll have full speed on all games

yeah, TLB is expected to cause major hits in performance

[placid quiver]

I see Robert trying to get it done though since SM64 is one of his games he wants to get perfect

[mortal panther]

I think he mentioned that he wanted to make TLB one of the last things to implement, since it would make debugging other things easier in the meantime.

[worn delta]

Yeah, and there are some big hitters on the TLB list, it isn't like a load of FIFA games or weaker titlea

[mortal panther]

Perhaps I'm thinking of something else though... like some other remaining features of the RDP.

There's a lot that gets discussed here. Easy to lose track. 🙂

[marble cargo]

TLB is starting to sound like a boogeyman you would tell kids about to scare them.

[fallen sparrow]

Thanks, I have a different type of video coming up lol

[marble cargo]

Make sure to highlight Smash Remix, since that is one of the more impressive hacks out there.

[fallen sparrow]

Vid is done. I couldn't get Smash ReMix working, I did try. Any advice on how to get it working?

I can do it in a future vid

[marble cargo]

Load Super Smash Bros. first, then boot up Smash Remix separately.

[fallen sparrow]

Thanks I'll try that, next time I boot up the MiSTer

[desert crow]

Wild Waters (proto) seems like a newly booting game

[zinc dew]

I have full confidence in TLB being resolved and this core being perfect.

[nimble needle]

Looking forward to that. Ya put me on to Mario Kart Amped so cheers for that one 👍

[fallen sparrow]

Sweet, video is out btw

[hearty oar]

well, I'm sure it will be as close to perfect as possible given the limitations of the MiSTer on ie, the emulated CPU clock speed

[native mesa]

I've honestly never seen smash bros look so good

It's like getting glasses for the first time

[hearty oar]

playing Smash Remix for the first time on the core, it's amazing how much work has gone into it

definitely going to have some mates around with some GameCube controllers at some point to really have fun with it

[grave island]

Overall performance seems rather improved. Star Fox 64 doesn't have as much slow down as before.

[native mesa]

Sad N64 controller noises

[grave island]

Thanks for the tip, that worked for me.

[hearty oar]

haha, I tried it with my NSO pad for about 5 mins, then just plugged in the GC controller instead and immediately started playing 10x better

[native mesa]

Does the 4 player GameCube adapter work on mister?

[hearty oar]

it does with the current unstable linux, I merged a patch for it a little while back

mayflash adaptor has always worked

[worn delta]

Still waiting for Sorg to merge it?

[hearty oar]

yeah, it's been a while, not sure how to contact him lol outside of github issues

I think someone mentioned the MiSTer FB group but I don't have an account

well it's merged, but the release hasn't been cut

[sonic kiln]

Why’s TLB so bad? Out of the loop

Why is it so bad to implement

[worn delta]

He is working on other things right now, I take it he hasn't done a Linux update since you added it?

[hearty oar]

nope

[native mesa]

Are you the one that did the guncon stuff?

[worn delta]

Maybe just focussed on other things, be good to get that and the NOS 64 controller added next update though

[north lagoon]

Does Super Mario 64 boot with last progress?

[native mesa]

It has always booted

[quasi storm]

But TLB makes the floating head not work(?) You need a patch.

[north lagoon]

I mean : pass title screen

[mortal panther]

It has for quite a while now.

[quasi storm]

You need a no face patch, and even then it is still prone to crashing, unless you adjust ddr latency.

[mortal panther]

There are still random crashes though. Nothing yet completely resolves those, but can be mitigated somewhat with that.

[zinc dew]

Check the pins, there’s a Fully Playable list that has a link to a patch that the community here has vetted

[north lagoon]

Ok thanks

[mortal panther]

Other weird things have been 'resolved' as well across the board...

[native mesa]

Regressed you mean

[sonic kiln]

Ah that sucks.

[worn delta]

What new issues have emerged since last build?

[waxen lodge]

Viewpoint 2064 works great now, just have to pick EEPROM4 saving, but seems to be perfect from playing a little, shame it didn't get released

[languid dune]

Only regression I noticed was no longer being able to make it to Resident Evil 2's title screen. But it does recognise the expansion pack now, so maybe a sidestep instead?

[quaint pewter]

I played Duck Dodgers (PAL) for about an hour earlier and it seems to work great. Glover is still a dark hellscape lol

[zinc dew]

so Glover is working perfectly?

har har har

[grave island]

Anyone ever get Super Mario 64 to crash/freeze? Just did it on the first Star level.

[quaint pewter]

It's like the anti-mario64. nothing can be seen apart from the scary glove eyes.

[grave island]

It froze with corrupted audio

[languid dune]

Kirby is also a dark hellscape still. Which is fitting considering the series' tendency for having hellspawn final bosses designed to give kids nightmares.

[languid dune]

Yeah, it's known for locking up. Same with Wave Race 64.

[amber saffron]

If you use the UltraSM64 patch it works without crash (for me).

https://github.com/FazanaJ/ultrasm64

[quaint pewter]

Is that better than the noface patch? I tried that but must be doing it wrong or using wrong base rom as I can't get it working. I'm a doofus. lol

[amber saffron]

yeah this is better than the noface patch

the noface one crashed a bunch for me

[grave island]

Thanks, I'll give it a go.

[wraith estuary]

I see the cache and ddr settings in the core debug menu. can you recommend some settings that work well for sm64?

[grave island]

Where is the actual patch? Have no idea what to look for there.

[amber saffron]

Its a whole process, one second, another user posted a regular patch based on it.

[wraith estuary]

i think this is it. Robby actually pinned it. #1096015979055697940 message

[zinc dew]

That Robby guy sounds like a nerd

[grave island]

Ah, got it thanks.

[mortal panther]

Treating this place like his personal pincushion. I swear...

In all seriousness... he is singlehandedly responsible for the best looking and most useful pinned comments on any server I'm a member of.

...just don't tell him that.

😉

[cerulean elk]

That’s an insult to nerds

At least they provide something 🤣

(I say as I finish up N64 edits for tomorrows video…😬)

[brisk drum]

Army men air attack working very well

[weary perch]

Mickey's Speedway USA - save file with everything unlocked including the Transfer Pak content

works on the JP rom as well

[orchid nimbus]

recompile does 30fps

[cerulean elk]

Ooh that looks improved

[native mesa]

It usually always crashes for me

[native mesa]

Do you have a patch for it?

[cerulean elk]

@brisk drum
