well, all three plugins freeze when loading a savestate on OoT. 5.6 freezes in the menu (when you select load state-> state 1), 5.1 and 5.31 get into the game actually, but then freeze (the music still runs, tho). Are there any specific settings I should use?

PS: can someone tell me, why UltraHLE ALWAYS freezes when it's started? It did it with all Surreal emus, but i never found out why.

But still: thank you for your efforts.

ultrahle works only with some games (mario64, mario kart, zelda OOT), it has less compatibility but more performance, as for your states problems, I only tested it by doing a save state, playing 2 minutes then loading state and it worked like a charm.

[Horscht]

well, the state worked, but only as long as i didn't reset the emu.

While this technically isn't a bug/issue, I'd rather post here instead of creating a new thread since it is a one reply question:  what are the odds of smb support being added on in a later version of Surreal64 XXX?

I don t understand the question, sorry.

I think (!) he's talking about SMB sharing, i think it's "streaming" from a computer.

for SMB support, why not, if I can find a source (I think there s some support on mameox).

Sorry, I should have elaborated more  But yeah, the full term I believe is Samba.  There's full support in XBMC too, if you are brave enough to find it  But SMB support would kick ass...

How about 720p (1280x720) and/or 1080i (1920x1080) resolution support in Surreal or is it too much for the Xbox to handle or would it be fine with a 128MB Xbox?

Thanks GogoAckman & Freakdave for this update. Your continuted work is much appreciated by many!

My question is about Dr. Mario. I noticed the "can't see pills" problem is still there, even with all three plugin versions. I know you said 5.31 will not work with PJ64. Does anyone know if PJ64 is the emulator for the PC that will play Dr. Mario with 5.31? I tried to locate the plugin and try for myself with that version, but had no luck finding Rice 5.31. I could have sworn that 5.31 was supposed to have fixed that game along with 3 others if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks again!

the ini can change some things, maybe this one has something to do with the ini, try to find another.

Horscht: you may notice that zelda oot runs better with 1964, rice 5.60 and basic audio as settings.  That way you can load/save states no problem, I already tried it.  Just be careful since you should have about 2 mb free during most of the game, it is difficult to get into the ingame menu with 1 mb free.  So when playing you should have the debug on to see whether you can actually save at that point, or to wait until the memory frees up.
GogoAckman, Freakdave: Excellent release you guys.
I noticed the todo.txt file there, and I was wondering whether you would accept some more suggestions.  I'd like to see a few things, some may be not even possible so let's keep an open mind:
Video related:
1080i or 420p support. resizable screen.  Rice video latest versions. PJ64 1.6 sources (possible?)
Audio:
surround sound/dolby enhancement if not already active. (possible?)
Misc:
crash detection; a way for surreal to detect when a game has crashed and reboots the xbox.  And another great way to prevent crashes; have a small ini file called crash.ini, which will make records of games that have loaded, and whether they were properly unloaded..  a simple way is to add a value of 0 to each game once the game is run, and a value of 1 once the game was unloaded.  Then from the menu, when trying to run a game which has previously crashed, have a "warning: this game crashed upon last try: are you sure you'd like to load it" message.
Have settings which are known to be optimized per game updated with every release, or as a seperate file.  That way people will have the best settings available to them, resulting in less problems overall.

I'll try the emu on my dev kit.
And see how good it runs on 128

for 1080i or 420p, I can t do it as I don t have HDTV to test, resizable screen is already on todo list and upgrade sources, yes it would be great but the doors are closed.
audio -> maybe, as I said directx thing is not really something I know
crash detection -> why not but how, I must find .

EDIT : as for all the bugs, I hope the version I released is good, I have some problems compiling it, all is fine but sometimes the xbe is 1.0Mb and sometimes 1.39Mb, I have many strange compile bugs (all logical is okay but it crashes or do some strange things, it works good in debug and not in release mode), I corrected romlist bug (it may result by a crash) but it will be for next time.
