Also, it doesn't come with Glide, because the current Windows version of Glide isn't open source or something.

Is there a chance that the recording branch will allow us to use audio compression? In the current mupen when you record avi, it asks you which video compression you want to use, however it saves the audio as uncompressed PCM format. This I believe leads to sound desyncs when you compress the avi a second time.

Yes that will most likely be an option, after we finish off a few of our branches... I will get to reworking recording. Hopefully nmn will have solved some of the Win32 issues. I don't want to start doing recording until I have all the necessary things done for this project.

Actually I thought this was a bug with the way it saves the audio to a file. If the game uses multiple sample rates etc for sounds, I was led to believe this caused an A-V desync..

That might be it, I really dont know the cause, but I am hoping that this emulator will fix the problem

I plan to take a whack at the Banjo-Tooie fire-egg bug. If I get into working on this emulator at all, then this bug will be the first one I fix. I'm downloading the dependencies as we speak, as well as ripping my banjo-tooie copy onto my computer.

I got BT booting again on Mupen64, seemed to be a problem with the ini settings as I suspected. I wonder where the fireegg thing occurs.

I'll try to be precise: once you have learned how to hang from ledges and aim eggs in level 1 (mayahem temple), you can proceed in the overworld to the plateau (3rd tunnel/teleport thing in the game, and contains entrance to level 2, glitter gulch mine). If you have enough notes, jamjars in this area will teach you how to launch fire eggs. If you shoot a fire egg at the icon above a brown gate, the gate is supposed to open giving you access to the meador (with the 4th tunnel/teleport thing and 3rd level (witchyworld) entrance). The bug with mupen is that the gate doesn't open at all. Edit: I have provided a state which under normal circumstances would be fine, but the glitch prevents progress. Press Z to launch a fire egg. (R changes egg type, C-up gets out of aiming mode)

There are some big new features, and major contributions were written for this release by: slougi, DarkJezter, ebenblues, Tillin9, Richard42, nmn, and okaygo.

  • On Screen Display
  • KDE4 GUI (experimental, compile from source)
  • Cheat system with Gameshark codes
Minor New Features
  • Single frame advance
  • Emulator playback speed up or down in 5% increments
  • Rumble Pak support with force feedback
  • Map emulator functions (fullscreen, stop emulation, etc) to joystick buttons or axis movements.
  • Volume up/down
  • Blight Input: Individually configure each direction of X and Y axis, which allows inverting the axis
  • JTTL_Audio: libsamplerate support for high quality audio resampling
  • GTK GUI: Search/filter box
  • GTK GUI: Accelerator keys
  • GTK GUI: numerous small changes and fixes
  • Overhaul of rom handling functions; numerous small fixes
Bug fixes
  • NoMemoryExpansion parameter to emulate 4MB console; fixes some games

Enjoy this guys, this is one step closer to ReRecording, what we could really use now is some of the programmers to help port the code to Windows. You could also join us in IRC on FreeNode at #mupen64plus

Although some of surely have already checked their inbox and thus heard the news: soft reset is now supported and seemingly working as of revision 793.

Now all we could use are some Win32 Developers to help build/compile on windows.

slougi has started a windows branch, and this is my copy working. games dont seem to run, and I haven't played with it much. But eventually things should just work.

working(a): adopted as a temporary basis for further work; "a working draft"; "a working hypothesis" ie: my working copy, or... my copy working :P no your right, i see what you mean. it runs, but you couldnt say it WORKED well

I hope it will emulate games better. Such as, oh...Gauntlet Legends. Can't really play that game at all, cause there's no health bar or anything.

Tell me about it. I love the N64 version of Gauntlet Legends. Unfortunately I can't find the game anywhere. So I gotta wait for a better Emulator. :/

Wait a minute, I just found out, Gauntlet Legends is also for the PlayStation, why don't you do that for that system?

I have the playstation version. It's just not as much fun as the N64 version. :3

Yeah, I guess your right, still, if it is sorta different on the PlayStation version than it is on the N64, both versions would be TASed.

The N64 version actually has better controls. In the PSX version, it's harder to get a bead on your enemies. Plus, your shots just go right through every enemy. Kinda makes it hard to power level when you're destroying every enemy plus the generators. xD I'm just going to keep my fingers crossed, and hope Mupen+ can run the game better than other emulators.

Am I doing something wrong? I went to the googlecode site and downloaded it, but it doesn't seem to have any recording or playback features at all.

Mupen64Plus is a fork of the old 0.5, so rerecording is not supported yet. Check Issue 58 for more.
