Thanks to all developers and anyone affiliated with this emulator, the last thing
I'd want to see is another truely amazingly promising N64 emulator just disappear,
especially when it's for the best console around!
This PJ64X work is simply astonishing I must say since I'm doing my own
compatability list I've seen what works and what doesn't and I've never
seen so much even load!!!
CHEERS!

P.S. The first N64 emulator for PC was UltraHLE and it played Mario 64 and Zelda near perfectly so I don't know what you mean buy "jesus they were bad".

Im a little drunk at the moment... but the first one I remember was UltraHLE, and it was incredible, what was that mid-98? anyway... I agree Pike, This was one hell of a release... I thank all that were involved. Now if only my fsck'ing girlfriend would quit playing mario-cart 64... I could get back to some super metroid.
damn... NerdENerd, you beat me to it.

I would like to know the answer to that before i pay homage, none the less great job Im up to like 44 stars on mario64. |
I know for a fact that the pj64-x team started working on it BEFORE any money was being offered and that it was not a driving factor.
All-in-all I think that they have done a great job! and am sure it will improve over time.

Anyways, I just modded my box on the weekend, and got the Bios flashed and all yesterday. The first thing I tried out was PJ64 w/ Mario 64, and it plays incredibly. It's very nice, and I'm impressed - afterall... it's just a beta.

There won't be updates by the original author; the contest is over, as said in big, bold letters on the contest's homepage. He's just worked on this for a month and a half, and I doubt he's willing to do the equivilent of at-home surgery without another dose of cash.
I wouldn't complain at all about this... if it only met the first goal. However, since it has met all three (therefore, the ending of the contest), I'm really, really dissapointed; any of you got a 32MB game working? Because no one else has. Read Goal 3; it's supposed to run at least one with full speed, graphics, and controls.

1. Perhaps you should try and go through all of the roms to which ones work and don't. Someone has already started on that... it can be found HERE. Wasn't there a thing with like Boot Keys...? Like Diddy Kong Racing had its own boot key for it to work or something....I forget.
2. Create a prog that allows the user to change thier controller layout. I for one (not to critisize), don't really enjoy where the C-Buttons are located and would like to change them.
3. Make GoldenEye work!! LOTS of people enjoyed it and it doesn't seem to work correctly.
4. I don't know what graphics plug-in to choose.... Maybe you should make it so PJ64-X Auto-Detects what type of plug-in it should use...
That's it for me.

| I just wanted to add my voice to the several people on the board that think that pj64-x, and the contest, is the best thing to hit the scene in a long long time. Sure, you could nitpick about the R button, but really who cares.. we have a good working emu beyond anyone's realistic expectations, and there is fixes on the way.... anyway, great work (whoever wrote the emu) ... and thank you very much Iriez for arranging all this and getting the donations together to get this off the ground. I think what alot of people are forgetting is that we probably wouldn't have a working (with sound) n64 emu otherwise. The emu rocks, the contest got it to us, I'm willing to look past any slight descrepencies in the contest rules or what have you... who cares, I didn't donate, and I'm finding most of the people complaining about the contest specifics didn't donate either. The xbox mod scene is kind of unique in that alot of people who were never in any mod scene before are in this one. The learning curve is relatively low and the mods are readily available, causing every newb and his brother to have a modded xbox and lurk here. As such, the signal to noise ratio gets pretty low, and we have lot more cry babies, nitpickers and fanboy's comparitively speaking. It must be hard to put up with from a developers standpoint. But I think it's important for the devs and coders to know that the old-school and the hardcore are still here and we ABSOLUTELY appreciate all thats being done FOR FREE in this very cool scene. Seriously, no other console, nor the PC for that matter, has had this level of emu and homebrew support this early in the scene. It's unreal. It may be a little hard to hear our cheers through all of the immature and ill-founded jeers, but we are here. Thanks. |

1. There is a built in compatibility list... when you go to the main screen of the emu press X (or is it Y?) wait for about 1min (it will seem to freeze but it hasn't.) Then it will show the compatibility of the games and which plugin to use!

badmonkey from another thread: I don't think the problem ever was with the quality of the emulator, or with people thinking it needing to be more. The problem was with the info not forthcoming about the contest aspect of it. People were just directed to a web page that stated that The Contest is Over. Clearly the released version was not meeting the requirements as people understood them, and I don't think there is anything wrong with people requesting/demanding proper information about it. I am sure that there are plenty of people also upset that there is only one entry, but nothing can be done about that. Though it won't change the dissapointment. A contest loses a bit of something if there is no competition in it. I would even think the coders would be a bit dissapointed not having the extra drive to beat out the competition. As said though... What can ya do? If no one else enters, then no one else enters. I would, as would anyone else I'm sure, be very dissapointed if the developers quit their work. It is definately not their work, which is at an excellent start, and is a most welcome and wanted addition to the Xbox emu library, that we find fault and bitch about. It is in the lack of info about the contest, and the developers must definately not confuse this into being about them, or what they are doing. |
I posted this in another thread, but I figure it would have more relevance here.
I think the emulator is off to an excellent start, and it is definately something I have wanted for a long time on the xbox. Great work guy(s), please don't let the unrelated negative shite get ya down, because your work is definately appreciated. Even if it doesn't shine through much in a thankless world.

drat!
but i think the best thing in the world is if the scene stays alive. i dont want a perfect emulator for everything. but the whole scene should not die because of some (meanwhile its the majority. but who cares...) idiots that dont have a clue about anything.
so again: thank you coders out there! not only for pj64 but also for all the emus ever made. in my life i had thousand times more fun with emus then with normal games.

Finally! I'd been struggling to get the emu to work, when I tried redownloading the emu. That did the trick! I've been reading all of this negativity the past few days, and was expecting the worst. This is really very excellent for a beta! For those of us who have been involved in the emu scene (or at least, using emulators when NES emulation was still being perfected) this is much better than the early releases then! Mario 64 plays like, 95% perfectly, with cleaner graphics, on quick comparison with the real thing on my TV. I remember the days of struggling on my old Macintosh Performa, getting 15 FPS on 1st Gen crappy NES games. There aren't even any N64 emulators this good on the Mac today! Hear hear!

Finally I get to see a positive thread and people who show respect for others.
I've been using Emulators since the early days of Mame when there was only the dos version of mame. I have tons of EMU's on my xbox and pc. Project 64 is my favorite N64 one on my pc. So I was very happy when I saw it on my Xbox running as well as it did. I love 1080 snowboarding and that was my first game I tried. Ran like a charm. Minor graphic glitch on levels that have snow falling but that wasn't a big deal. Then I tried Mario 64 and was very impressed.
Not a complaint but one question on N64 emu's in general. Why can't anyone seem to get the 2D games to work well? Like tetris and Dr Mario. I've never seen an EMU get those to work well at all. You'd think that they wouldn't be that hard being 2D instead of 3D.
Thanks alot for the port of Project 64 and that reminds me that there's also a VERY BIG THANKS going out to the people who worked on the Project 64 for the PC since this is a port.

They have the rest of this site to spew there bile, but to save the coders having to trawl through thousands of posts to see the genuine respect and admiration THE SILENT MAJORITY have for their work, PLEASE post a few words of appreciation here. I'm sure, for the coders concerned, this project was NEVER about money. Credit where credit is due, and genuine appreciation for an ASTONISHING achievement will be worth every drop of blood, sweat and tears as this project evolves.... Please, post disappointments and negativity elsewhere. This thread has one aim. POSITIVITY |
I'm not sure
One can't help feel that a legal sdk or 128meg of ram as standard and we'd have that emulator already.
