For starters, I've confirmed that I'm running v8...it would suck if I tried to give you advice with an older version.

I just booted up v8 and played the first level of Kung-Fu to see if there were any problems. It played perfectly in 1080i/NTSC (IIRC). That's a great game BTW.

So...with that in mind...I'll ask a few more questions to see if I can help you or jog your memory.

- Did you do a clean install of Mednafenx-nes v8?
- Did you delete the prior save file / save states / cache remnants that might cause problems?
- Did this rom work fine on prior NES emulators? Is it tested to work?
- Have you tried wiping everything and then re-ftp upload again to see if it works then?

Let me know and I'll try to help out...later.

this is a late reply,

i found more games that don't work, paperboy 2, and then some ninja game its called zen or something like that

but i did do a clean install, and then reinstalled it again
i deleted my cache in e: and the saves folder for the games that don't work
and all these games did work on fce v16

it might be the bios i use, but i don't have alot of options on a 1.6 xbox
and ever since i started using my 1.6 alot of games haven't been working
like i think all my dos games don't work anymore, and some n64 don't work either

any advice anyone?

This could just be semantics and that I'm misunderstanding you, but I normally go into Micro$oft Dash and then find and delete the prior save file for the entire application in question (in this case FCEUltra and/or MednafenX). Or, I just navigate to the TDATA and UDATA folders via FTP and trash the saves in question.

Then, using my Chris Farley Ninja Skillz , I completely delete the offending folder of the misbehaving application/emulator - be it in your E, F, or G partition. Then, when no one is looking, I rub my rosary and do a completely "clean" install. This way there's neither a save file, .ini file, nor offending remnants of the prior emulator left behind to piss you off.

Granted, with emulators, I always leave the rom folders behind so I don't have to re-up them (too time-consuming).

You may have meant this, but perhaps not. It certainly won't hurt to try.

Let me know, mang.

Hi!

First of all sorry for my English (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

I'l try to explain myself, i'm trying to play duck hunt with my light gun on mednafen nesv8 but i can't. I can calibrate the light gun, but i didn't find the way to play with it during the game....At the beginning of the game, when you choose the game configuration, in the controller 1 or controller 2 i cannot choose "light gun".

If anybody knows how to play this with the light gun please help me.

Thanks,

MaRcMa99

Sorry for the noob question, but it is the first time I am using this emulator. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)
I wanted to play Duck Hunt, "inserted the coins" and then I don't know what to press to start that holy game. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Nope. It is so much better being undead. I'm heading to the mall.

Not sure about the Vs, version. That's the one that requires you to input a coin? Or is it the Play choice 10 version? Not sure, but for the console one, you set controller 2 as the light gun and controller 1 as the controller I think. If you did it the other way around, that would explain it. Someone else could probablly answer this better.

I have a Controller S in port 1 and Lightgun in port 4 on Xbox.
In Mednafen config select gamepad in port 1 and Zapper in port 2.
It works great with Duckhunt (haven't tried VS and PC10 versions).

thanks a lot, now it's working (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

So from what I am understanding is that you HAVE to use at least 2 controllers - if you don't have a lightgun to use in combination with a controller? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

Mednafenx seems to be more taxing then fceultra was. In a handful of games, with supersai2x filter and at 720p, there is slowdowns (drop from 60 to in the 40's fps), whereas there were none on fceultra. Is there any truth to this?

As far as I know, Mednafen is more accurate than FCEUltra, which means you are going to pay with more CPU cycles.

@Xport

In 720p the only software filter i can use is superscale2x to get smooth frame rates. When i use super2xsai (my favorite filter for the NES) the framerate drops in most games. Is this normal, or is there something wrong (i need to fix something or delete something)? Neogenesis, Zsnexbox, and FBA-xxx, all more advanced systems, have no problem running games in 720p in any software filter besides HQ2x. Also there was none of these problems with fceUltra.

Thanks again for all your great emulators.
