Monkey 64 HOWTO ***Read First***

[DPyro]

1. Make a folder on the root of your memorystick called "N64".

2. Make sure the rom you have is unzipped. For example the filename should be something like "WaveRace64.v64".

3. Take that file and put it into the folder called "N64" which is on the root of your memorystick.

4. Now place Monkey64 in your game folder.

For people with 1.0 or people using eloader your memorystick should look like this:

E:\N64
E:\PSP
E:\PSP\GAME
E:\PSP\GAME\Monkey64

For people with 1.5 your memorystick should look like this:
E:\N64
E:\PSP
E:\PSP\GAME
E:\PSP\GAME\Monk _
E:\PSP\GAME\Monk_~1%

Now... start up the emulator, and then you should come up to something that says this:

( ) load rom -> WaveRace64.v64
( ) clock speed
etc...

Make sure that the "0" between the parentheses is in "load rom" section and press "X". The light should flicker a couple of times and when it stops go down to "Run Rom" and press "X" again.

Congratulations you are now emulating the N64 on your PSP (well, sorta).

Thankyou. We needed this. From now on any problems should hopefully be posted in this thread. ATM there's a lot of homebrew noobs asking questions everywhere.

[Vega]

2.6 owners:

Follow Sn!pers guidelines on installing 1.5, then run the MONK folder from the eloader menu.
Running the psmonkey folder will make the PSP crash.

I agree. This will cut down on the stupid questions like "Monkey 64 only works in the game folder not in the root, and then it won't find roms. HELP!"

[LHorse007]

Why do I think that sometimes I'm the only one who knows what a readme.txt file is for?

[LiLMeNaCe]

hey dylanvv20 does the monkey 64 wrk on 2.6 if so can u plz tell me wat to do

[LHorse007]

hey dylanvv20 does the monkey 64 wrk on 2.6 if so can u plz tell me wat to do
If you did enough searching to find this info, then you should be able to find the answer to that question.

Yes it will work on 2.60, follow the instructions above for 1.0 or people using an eloader.

Yes, you will need an eloader and an actual copy of GTA:Liberty Stories.

Do not ask for an eloader or how to install it and use it, go find it.

[itaintmefoo]

wait do 2.6 ursers use 1.5 0r 1.0 ty

[Wally]

2.6 users use 1.0.

[eman]

thanks very much needed for all the noobs

[psp726]

There is no run rom selection for me. Does anyone have it?

[DPyro]

Err...Sorry, thats on the old version of M64.

[dkjr83]

I've tried running both versions (1.0-2.0 and 1.5) on 2.6 using the GTA eboot loader. I can get to the loading screen and pick my rom but it gives me an error when I try to launch it. It doesn't crash though, so that's a good sign.

Any suggestions?

[DerekTheJew]

I downloaded monkey64 and i only got a rar file and my eloader is not recognizing that it is there. I have it under psp/game can anyone help explain?

[DPyro]

You need to unrar it and place the monkey64 folder under PSP/GAME folder.

[DerekTheJew]

so i need to find an app to unrar the file similar to unzipping the file?

[DPyro]

Yep.

[vettacossx]

Some Very Very Impressive Frame Rate Keep Up The Good Work!

[DerekTheJew]

i think i got it thanx

[Waxman]

I run the program but when I hit load rom it gives me this,"Error: illegal 32bit memory read at 0*80400000 <pc: 0*8040000> Anyone know the issue?? I am trying to run mario kart 64

[Wally]

keep pressing x

[Waxman]

doesnt work, just shows error message again and again darn ...

[nikerox99]

Yo ive got firmware 2.6 running and i can get SM 64 running really slowly but i only get words like lives, stars etc showing up and the rest of the screen is black?? Is this normal or am i doing something wrong?

[Xiro]

I run the program but when I hit load rom it gives me this,"Error: illegal 32bit memory read at 0*80400000 <pc: 0*8040000> Anyone know the issue?? I am trying to run mario kart 64

did you select the correct microcode from the list?

[Gray Fox]

i used 1.50 and that worked with 2.60, but when i loaded the rom it didnt do anything else than turnng off. I dont understand that BS that everyone say that 1.0 and 2.60 are using the same folders, since im allways using 1.50?

[Albert Delia]

This may sound stupid but where exactly must I put the ROM I wish to play, someone please help

[Albert Delia]

ok menaged sorry for disturbing (saw the readme hehehe)

[kersplatty]

do the roms have to be byteswapped,lil or big endian?

[Shilo]

Yo ive got firmware 2.6 running and i can get SM 64 running really slowly but i only get words like lives, stars etc showing up and the rest of the screen is black?? Is this normal or am i doing something wrong?

If your using the microcode Fast 3D Ext, it wont work right. Use the mircocode Fast 3D instead. The chart thingy is wrong.

[kersplatty]

anybody what type of format do the roms have to be in? byteswapped or not

[sbrandyx]

can someone try and get this to work on a higher upgrade like 2.6

[sbrandyx]

okay dont answer my question i read the forum and found out

[Kloe]

i tried running a few games and looked up their microcode on that big list and set it to what it told me to and all i get is the psp crashing when i click to load the rom...

[DPyro]

Make sure the roms you try are no bigger than 16mb.

[harry ballzack]

ok i have a 2.6 psp with eloader 9.7i have both daedalus(r4) and monkey 64(2.0).when i load monkey 64 i see ( )rom load( )tbl fast emulation( )micro code...ect.i load mario kart 64.v64.and set the right micro code.it loads up but when i am about to start a race the psp freezes and crashes.
also when i load up any rom the screen gets all glichy and looks like TV snow,then the the N64 logo comes up and the rom loads up...is that normal?

[DPyro]

I think these problems occur cause you guys have 2.6....At least most people having problems are using higher firmware.

[Wally]

Could also be the dump of the rom.

[bobcobb]

Well, the ROM does not load very well, and is extremely slow with 2.6.

4-5 FPS on SuperMario 64

How is your performance on 1.5?

[Accordion]

im on 1.5
i get 4-5 on super mario outside the castle
5-7 inside the castle on average
7-8 inside first level room(the bomb painting room)
8-10 in the garden area with all the signposts and trees
and back to 4-5 inside the real levels

[Mugen84]

thank u very much for the info

[Wally]

IT runs via the GTA exploit ok so 16mb is out until fanjita changes memory management

[Samba]

Hi im running 2.0 firmware and trying to run goldeneye i opne monkey 64 through "Choice" eloader and when i try and load it psp freezes and thhen crashes any help? or do i have to use the gta eloader?

[Accordion]

read around please
16mb limit (maybe lower actually)
any way the opcodes have not been done for that anyway

[delorean88]

yo does anybody know where exactly i put the games because everytime i load up the program no roms ever appear and when i go to load one the psp freezes and crashes. wat do i do with the roms. thanks for any help

[Kramer]

In the root of your memory stick in a folder named n64

[delaney64]

dude it keeps crashing me im using 1.5. i did everything you said my memory looks like what u said but when i click load it goes to some screens and it crashes. doesnt even get me to run it

[Zion]

use .v64 files. they are better than the zipped roms. they will load faster too.

[Wally]

delaney: What roms are you testing?

[webjohn]

[jetbreaker]

I haven't been able to correctly set up the new monkey version, and I've been installing the 1.5, cuz my PSP is version 1.5, but sadly it doesn't want to run any of my games, and yes i did check the codes, I tried mario 64, Super Smash Bros, and Kirby the Crystal Shards and nothing. If someone can help me please reply

[oa17]

Everytime I start to load it I press x & it says game cannot be loaded data is corrupted. Anyone know how to fix this?

[keefurxxcore]

does this emu work for 2.80? (sorry for being a noob)

[edota]

ok...this is what i have..


F:\PSP\GAME\Monk_~1%\ and then the monkey emulator file with a conkers bad fur day EBOOT. there too.

now the other thing...


F:\N64\conkers bad fur day.v64

and thats the rom. its about 59 mb. The N64 and PSP folder at the very begining of everything. So i think its perfect. The problem is whenever i go on my PSP to GAMES i go down to "Memory Stick" and i press "X" which opens all these games.

the first "game" is Monkey64 and the background is Conker leaning on the Rareware logo while saying," Ohh noo..its gonna be one of those days."

when i press "x" a little box comes up saying,"This game cannot be started. The Data is corrupted. I've tried everything i could think of!!

Please!! Anyone!! Someone!! Help me out!!:( :confused:

Filesize. The rom is too big to work. Other then the improper release. No public release by me suports roms larger then 16MB. Conker is 64MB. On top of this Conker uses a custom microcode and is not working cpu emulation wise. So there is no chance it will ever work.

[famouspker49]

i am having problems, because i was usind dedaulus or h/e you spell it, and i was able to play Super Mario 64 just fine, but the fps was a little slow, and i tried other games like mario golf, mario kart, mario tennis, and super smash bros. The others didnt work so i d/l monkey 64 and not even super mario 64 works, and i used the right microcode and such, but the games never load just at the bottom of the screen it says "VSYNC: 9.33 PC: 0x800001c83na Pi Write Out of Bounds DRAM" and the numbers sometime vary, but the game never loads help pls?
