Care to elaborate?

for starters you dont know what the jtag hack is, you say the first round of emu's will be buggy and suggest we stick with playing them on the original xbox, goin on about the failure rates of the 360.......  

I think im quite just as to saying you need to get a clue

[weinerschnitzel]

Can you leave the 360 talk to the 360 forums? I don't want this topic being closed.

Nes6502, can you release the skin psd's so maybe we can make a similar interface in zsnexbox?

Is anyone else having problems running in 720p? Maybe I missed something in the readme but when I go to 720P all the menu's in the GUI get messed up, overlapping and such.

I've only just taken this app for a quick spin, but I already realize how polished it is coming out of the gate.  It's another great release under your belt nes6502.  For me, saying "thank you" is truly an understatement.

You never disappoint when it comes to emulation quality and accuracy.  Much, much appreciation for sharing all your fine work.   (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

yeah this is nice, thanks was demo'n it earlier and I like it.. is there anyway to share 1 romset along with Mednafenx Nes? was playing that BattleKid demo on it....games seem to look alot more polished on this/gameplay looks smoother too! Thanks Nes that was quick!!!!  

[ressurectionx]

There shouldn't be any reason that you couldn't use the romsets/Xtras I've put together for the NES on this emu.  There's nothing crazy going on with multiple roms per zip like in the Arcades.  

If you got my roms than you can rest assured that the synopsis NES put in this emu works 99.999999% of the time too.

I just played a few roms with this emulator, I think the Castlevania medley is a good choice for the GUI bgm  

I have two questions, first is there a legal source for some nice NES preview videos? I guess not as XMV but maybe in another format I can convert myself later?

Secondly I wonder if there is a way to resize the game screen to a really exact size for NES games? First all games start in full screen what looks not so good if you have a HD TV as all games are stretched to the left and right. Is there an option like "keep aspect ratio" somewhere, I didn't see something like it?
Or would it be possible to show the size of the screen where you resize it by numbers? In most XPort emulators there are numbers shown which is a great help for setting them to the really exact real aspect ratio, if there are no numbers I can just resize it until it seems more or less accurate.

Hello Althena,

Here's hoping your a girl because Althena always had a special place in my heart.  

First question....

Yes.  Click the banner on my thread and you can have the old version of my Xtras which include videos, boxart, cartart, titles, action shots, manuals, rumble packs, and other stuff for your emus.

Everything there is outdated though, so you may want to wait a month or so for that thread to be updated before you put too much work into it.



Second question....

Good luck to ya.   I don't know nothing about no such things.

Did they hack the 360?  I don't pay attention, but I thought that was still just a dream.

Not only am I happy to see this, but I'm ecstatic that you decided to add in lightgun support after all! I'm excited to give this a try! You're awesome nes! Thank you for your hard work on the scene. I really appreciate the effort you give. All the love, effort, and polish shows.

Thanks a lot, this is exactly what I was looking for, doesn't matter if they might be outdated, for now it is ok when all games in my favorite list have a video preview  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanks, I hope I will be lucky and just missed the option  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

What I am looking for is a way to make sure you run the NES games in NestopiaX in the correct resolution so that you really have more real NES experience. I am not very happy with the default setting when I run it on my HD tv where they run stretched in full screen what looks not very good when you compare it to the correct resolution (for example square blocks in Castlevania or Mario become rectangles).

nes6502, is there a way to set the resolution NestopiaX uses to play the games, to the really correct value? In most emulators from XPort it shows you the resolution by numbers when resizing the screen and you could just check on Wikipedia what resolution a console used, do the math so it matches the resolution of your tv and you had the correct aspect ratio.
This function would be useful in NestopiaX too or maybe an option like "Keep Aspect Ratio", like for example here in Genesis Plus 360:

I know you said that you will stop developing on the Xbox and there will be no more updates from you for this project, however I can see from all the work you put into it and the long readme that you really put a lot of efforts into the project to make the ultimate NES emulator and you also mention often that having a real NES experience was important to you when porting the emulator. But I think having the accurate resolution is essential for people who want an experience as "closest thing to a real NES anyone can get".
Don't get me wrong, I think this is an amazing project and I really appreciate it, but if it is not too much work, I think the functions I mentioned should be in there, they are just too important for a real experience you also seemed to care so much much about.

But I still hope I will be lucky and just missed the option  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

pretty much every game i've tried to run (from the hdd in F drive) comes back with

Invalid file
Press "A" to exit

i don't normally keep my nes roms zipped for the other emu's, pc or xbox, but it wasn't a huge deal to zip them all, but none of them run here. the roms work on every other emulator i've ever used (nester, fce, nesticle, nestopiaPC, etc).

i was thinking that maybe the CRC's were odd, but mine are all in the synopsis.txt. i zipped them with winrar, and they're all individually zipped. i tried them with 'normal' compression and 'store' compression, but that changed nothing.

the only game that worked was The Adventures of Dino Riki.

[EDIT] the problem was that my roms all had the .NES extension in caps. changed to .nes, and it's fine. quirky.

Wow that's a weird error.....   Thanks for letting us know what you did to fix it though.  I never would have thought that would be the problem.

[cbagy]

Have had similar experiences in the past with file extensions.
So now i always make sure my stuff for all emulators is in lower case.
Saves time in the long run.
