.Ok first off, what do some of these settings mean? What is Dynarec memory? Well over in the Official Surreal64 Help Thread, Iriez does an EXCELLENT job of explaining the proper way to fine tune your settings. Keep in mind, though, that that thread is for helping people to get the emulator to work for them, not making games run as optimal as possible.
Also, through trial and error, I've found that UltraHLE DOES NOT support the Memory Pak. Any game that requires a memory pack will say the memory pack is either damaged or not present when run under UltaHLE.
Last Updated September 9th, 2005
ALL GAMES ARE (U) (!) MEANING THEY ARE PERFECT AMERICAN RIPS UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED
ALSO THIS SETTINGS THREAD WILL BECOME OBSOLETE AS SOON AS I GET MY NEW HARDDRIVE! I PLAN ON PUTTING A COMPLETE SET OF ROMS ON IT, SETTING UP ALL THE GAMES AND THEN POSTING MY INI FILE FOR OTHERS TO DOWNLOAD!
Well, here is my list of optimal settings and a description on how each game runs:
Blue=Runs near perfect or pretty good
Red=Runs but has some sort of problem
1080 Snowboarding
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Glitches so extremely minor I don't bother to post them.
AeroGauge
Emulator - Project 64
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Default settings make this game run excellent.
BattleTanx
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Videos can run kind of slow but gameplay seems alright.
Conker's Bad Fur Day
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
These settings seem to work best. Gives you the impression conker has a beard. Lags at some points but runs PLAYABLE throughout most of the game.
Cruis'n USA
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 12mb Dynarec, 6mb Paging
Runs very smoothly under this emulator. Only problem is that there is an EXTREMELY MINOR glitch where balloons show up in the sparkles near a doorway.
Cruis'n World
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Runs and playable but a bit slow.
Diddy Kong Racing
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Same as Cruis'n World, runs a bit slow but still playable.
Doom 64
Emulator - UltraHLE
Settings - 10mb Video Memory
Runs almost perfect, but the controls are a bit too sensitive, but it's still playable.
Extreme-G
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs really good.
Forsaken 64
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Glitches so extremely minor I don't bother to post them.
F-Zero X
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs REALLY well but textures don't show up on cars. Big deal, so you lose a little bit of eye candy.
Gex: Deep Cover Gecko
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs fine, just personally can't stand the controls...
Glover
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs excellent. No glitches as far as I can see.
GoldenEye 007
Emulator - UltraHLE
Settings - 2mb Video Memory
The best way I've found so far to run this game. Controls are WAY too sensitive but it runs fairly smooth. As for texture glitches, the Train Depot's ground is some weird sort of blue and the black reflective glass is transparent. Also, the Save Game select screen lags for some reason or another but once you select a game, it runs Ok.
Harvest Moon 64
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs perfect.
Jet Force Gemini
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Has a few glitches; most are minor but the most annoying one is the big black square that replaces your shadow
.Kirby 64 - The Crystal Shards
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
I'm going to have to make this blue because although most enemies are missing their textures, the game is still playable.
Mario Kart 64
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 6mb Paging
Runs great.
Mario Party 1
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Seems to run fine.
Mario Party 2
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Slight texture glitches here and their.
Mario Party 3
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Same settings as Mario Party 2, same minor problems
.Mortal Combat Trilogy
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 3mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Game runs with full eye candy but I still can't get it to run at full speed. Playable, but just a tad too slow.
Paper Mario
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 2mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
There are a few parts where you think it's freezing but it's loading. There don't seem to be any serious glitches.
Rampage World Tour
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs excellent (but I mean come on, it's not very graphics intensive
). The only issue this game has is that the music makes *popping* sounds from time to time. No biggy really.Rampage 2 - Universal Tour
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs perfect.
Rush 2 - Extreme Racing
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 5mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 5mb Paging
Runs very well but on the stunt track, some floor textures are missing.
San Francisco Rush
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Game runs EXCELLENT! The only issue is that on the title screen, the graphics are SLIGHTLY messed up.
South Park
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs very well. Don't forget to add Use Basic Audio=1 into the games entry in the Surreal.ini in your TDATA folder.
Star Fox 64
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
This game runs perfect. I don't believe the N64 could have done a better job
)Super Mario 64
Emulator - UltraHLE
Settings - 10mb Video Memory
Runs Excellent on this emulator. The only problem I've seen is that in the very beginning of the game when you can move mario face around, the textures don't show up. NOTE:When getting the star "Pole Jumping For 8 Red Coins", sometimes the poles don't show up, leaving you with nothing to grab. To fix this just turn off the Xbox and resume gameplay.
Super Smash Brothers
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 8mb Video Memory, 6mb Dynarec, 2mb Paging
I don't recommend messing with these settings as they are OPTIMAL. Trust me, I spent some time getting the game to work this good.
Tetrisphere
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Runs fine.
The Legend Of Zelda - Majora's Mask
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 2mb Video Memory, 10mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
This game runs OK I guess but there are quite a few annoyances. The biggest problem is it likes to slow down A LOT when loading a new area and you think it's about to freeze. Also, you can't see what time of day it is by looking at the thing at the bottom of the screen. Also, it has an issue where the last heart that you have doesn't show up.
The Legend Of Zelda - Ocarina Of Time
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Max Video, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
My god did this game take me forever to figure out that the default settings are the best! You can take your Dynarec as high as 12 but I don't recommend it as you could run out of memory and have your box freeze. The game run smooth, but there are a few textures that are messed up, especially some spiderwebs and lets just say Red Mountain looks actually kind of cool
. This game also has the last heart not showing up issue.Turok 2 - Seeds Of Evil
Emulator - Project 64
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 14mb Dynarec, 7mb Paging
Slight lag and sound doesn't sync up very good, probobly because the videos are on crack. Don't forget to add Use Basic Audio=1 into the games entry in the Surreal.ini in your TDATA folder.
Turok 3 - Shadow Of Oblivion
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Same problems as Turok 2. Don't forget to add Use Basic Audio=1 into the games entry in the Surreal.ini in your TDATA folder.
Quest 64
Emulator - Project 64
Settings - 6mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
This game runs excellent with these settings. These are optimised and going any higher could be risky.
Wave Race 64
Emulator - 1964
Settings - 4mb Video Memory, 8mb Dynarec, 4mb Paging
Game runs excellent on default settings.

Yeah, I believe the dash is no longer in memory after you load a new xbe, although I could be mistaken. At any rate, I'm going to have my RAM upgraded to 128MB next week. I'd like to add to the performance tuning settings; however, will you still be interested in my settings after the upgrade, or is this thread directed more towards 64MB Xboxes?

Emulator - 1964
Settings - Default
Perfect - well I don't see any errors.
Diddy Kong Racing
Emulator - 1964
Settings - Default
Perfect graphics apart from ocasional 1/10th second black screen but that doesn't matter. Also sometimes car slows because you have to press down the drive button hard because no sensetivity in Surreal ATM.

. Number three, try to say on topic so this post doesn't become locked from swaying to much from its original purpose.Aside from that, I would appreciate any help. Also, If a mod would pin this, I would really appreciate it. I'm sure it would get lots of recognition then and one other thing.

What are the default settings for each of the three emulators in Surreal 64 in terms of videomemory, dynarec, and Paging? Also does the default setting change according to which game you are playing or does the default stay constant.
In general, Is there a good difference in play performance between using personalized settings as opposed to the defualt settings?

Anyone know a way to fix this? Could it be the rom? (that'd suck because Ive already collected over half of the stars in the game hahah)
This happens in both 1964 and UltraHLE.
Any help appreciated!

I reckon this topic should be up on the main page since a new version of Surreal came out recently.
And I am wondering , is there much difference between Surreal beta 2 and the new beta 4 version ?
I'm wondering can anyone tell me how these games play in the newest version.
Pokemon Stadium 1 and 2. Mario Golf and Mario Tennis. And do any of the Zelda games play perfectly yet ?
And do you think we will ever have an accurate Surreal compatibility list ? I don't :(
And I like this one better then the normal Surreal compatibillity thread, because at least this one, tells you the best settings to use, which is very helpful.

) and didn't have a single problem throughout th game.Goldeneye... Your best bet is UltraHLE + Messing with controller sensitivity. I couldn't for the life of me get that thing running under the other two emulators using every know combination of Video Plugins and Settings known to man. They both ran slow and very much unplayable.
Perfect Dark... Rice Video 5.31 and if I remember correctly PJ64. This game still runs too slow but can by some MAYBE considered playable, depending on how obssessed you are with playing this game.
In conclusion, I deleted both Goldeneye and Perfect Dark...
Waiting For Surreal 2

I think I'm setting a record for fuckups
but the other 2 were exploited. This new one was done up right. I said screw this and bought me one of them there Xecuter3 CE chips. While I'm at it, let me tell you about my xbox history:1st Xbox: Bought it just for an Xbox! Didn't know crap about modding or taking it apart and didn't really know much about it until I went to find an Xbox community. Low and behold I found this place. That's when I started reading. Low on cash and deteremined to find out what the hell all this stuff was about, I went with XlinuX
! First attempt failed, error 21 but at least I could still play my games! month later did some research and fixed it and the first dash I used was UnleashX. Got familiar with modding and the journey began. Started using Avalaunch as my dash and then one day out of curiosity (remember, font modded) went into Ava options and unlocked the drive but it wouldn't relock so I'm like fine because the password was on the same screen. Went to get something to write with and as soon as I reentered the room it shut off. I was like WTF!?! Make a LOOONNNG story short, HD ended up getting locked with wrong password and could NOT be unlocked.2nd Xbox: Still actually works. No top on it, bottom is silver (BAD paint job screwup) and the fan controller shorted out so it's ghetto rigged to 12 volts (not the stock fan. Couldn't deal with that so I bought a cool red 80mm) Kept that until I bouth my new one and gave the old one to my friend, which I think he used ONCE to play Forza Motorsport.
3rd: My Baby
. This one does not and will not hav a paintjob, it's all together and is shiny and new looking except for the X3 switch panel on the bottom left. I love this thing.Anyways, In the time it took me to type this I could have updated that list so let me get back to work.

Mischief Makers
1964, default settings, runs great, alot of missing letters in all of dialogue texts.
Duke Nukem Zero Hour

all of these games were tested/played on surreal 64 xxx beta 4.
default settings = 8mb dynarec, 4mb paging, rice 5.60.

Also, I couldn't tell you, since I have a 1.6 and therefore can't do a ram upgrade. If I could I wouldn't anyways because N64 emulation is fun, but not my favorite. I play my NES, SNES games A LOT more than Surreal yet I still keep my roms. Why?
Post by: noselessmonk on September 23, 2005, 10:14:00 AM
Emulator Version: Surreal64xxx beta 4
Rom Version: (U) (!)
Rom Settings: Video Plugin : Rice 5.10(5.31 has a bit better graphics but stutters and has slower, less constant framerate). Audio : Basic.
Comments: While Project64 plays with less glitches in the menu, I would rather have a smoother framerate. I prefer to play it on 1964.
1964: Debug info showed a 70-80fps and was very smooth. Slight graphics glitches unless you use Rice 5.60 which stutters and slows down(especially in the intros of a match). Dynarec mem : 6 Mbytes, Paging mem: 4 Mbytes(You could probably add 1-2 MBs to each; the debug showed that mem while playing stayed at around 6-8 Mbytes)
Project 64: Stutters more than 1964 but better graphics especially in the menus.
Dynarec mem: 6 Mbytes, Paging mem: 4 Mbytes.
UltraHLE: Untested.
I really liked how smooth it played under 1964. I would recommend using that for those that prefer smoother framerates and don't mind gfx glitches. If you don't mind giving up speed for quality, then you could try using Rice 5.60 under 1964 or Rice 5.31 under Project64.
Post by: noselessmonk on September 23, 2005, 10:33:00 AM
Oh well...
I found that using these settings under 1964 works even better than what I posted above:
Video: Rice 5.31
Audio: Basic
Dynarec:4 Mbytes
Paging:4 Mbytes
It helps play replays better in Mario Tennis.

i've heard a few people getting goldeneye running well through ultrahle, i just get a black screen that crashes my xbox with it.
im using surealxxx b4 which i got through the usual place. i'm going to try downloading again to see if that gets it working (sometimes a fresh install works :rolleyes: ) but wondered if anyone had suggestions.
also is there a way to config ultrahle? i can config sureal and pj64 but not ultrahle...is that just the way it is? and is there a way to add video/sound plugins to surealxxx? if so where would these be found?

Rice 5.60
Well, I am not sure if there is a better cure or not and I hope this helps considering that this is the greatest game ever made.

Okay, I went through every setting possible on the surreal 64. For ZELDA OCARINA OF TIME, there was a problem with the 2D stuff in the shops and the temple of time ect... Anyway, what is causing that believe it or not is the SOUND. The optimal settings are as follows:
Audio Plugin: BASIC AUDIO!!!
Emulator:1964
Dynarec memory:8 Mbytes
Paging memory: 4 Mbytes
Rice 5.60
Well, I am not sure if there is a better cure or not and I hope this helps considering that this is the greatest game ever made.
This was actually covered 2 posts above your one.
Do you notice crackly/stuttery audio when you run it in BASIC audio mode?

A lot of people claim that, I've been playing and it works fine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

It does run pretty well though, even if it does get some glitches on the pause menu etc,
the main games runs pretty well, considering its running on an Xbox.
I just use the JTTL audio, & deal with the menu glitches.
If Surreal v2 had ever come out, then we may not have these issues, sadly it never came to be.

If you are using an audio plug in, it will/may hinder your fishing experience!!!!!!
I could not set the hook for the life of me and tried to configure the analog sensitivity in every different way.
I then switched the sound to Basic Audio and it remedied the problem.
So for anyone who is playing Zelda OOT, I hope this helps because it sure pissed me off a great deal!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy.gif)

How do I save games with Surreal64 or does it do it automatically?

Anyone got a good settings for Mario kart. I'm playing two players right now and I have a lot of slowdown and the music is awful!
Thx
Use Surreal 64 1.0 and the game runs fine.
I think that Surreal 64 1.0 is the best surreal version for the most game.

That's an almost 4 year old post.
The correct answer would be:
Surreal64 B5.1 CE
1964
Rice 5.30 or 5.60
Vid: 4MB (Maybe 6MB)
Dyna: 8MB
Page: 6MB
These settings didn't work properly in some of the versions between 1.0 and 5.1, but with 5.1 you'll get no slowdown whatsoever.

I'm going to be making a new version of this thread so that I can update the main page, seeing as it hasn't been updated since september 2005.
The new version will be for surreal64 B5.1 CE, and will also list which video plugin has been found to give the best performance.
I will also post my surreal.ini file for people to download and test the setting with their own setup.
