Daedalus R8 "Spiff Up" (Unnofficial N64 Emu for PSP Release)

[Wally]

Hi wally here.

Just thought you people might be interested in graphical fixes (where purple textures occur) in daedalus R8.

Game Graphical fixes include
Banjo Kazooie - Tiles disappear, turns ground black
Big Mountain 2000 - Game looks better now, however black splotches exist in snow in some places.
007- World is not enough - Works really good now, except bonds hands are glitchy
Bust a move 1, 2, DX - Now full speed
Custom Robo - Game looks much better however Some sprites such as your player arent visible.
Doom - Makes background black although game is slow anyhow
Dr Mario - Fixes a lot of problems but still the game is scrambled up.
Extreme G- Lots more stuff visible now in menus.
F-Zero X - Game is full speed and working with all current graphics
Forsaken - Minor graphical hiccups cured (Full speeder)
Glover - Makes outside of castle dark, however moving up after mr tippy finishes talking will go inside castle.
Legend of Zelda - Various locations fixed and some go dark. (Chance of getting raped by a zombie is very high if adult)
Mario Kart - Some random fix
Megaman 64- Fixed minor graphical glitches
Micro machines Turbo - Most things visible now, game is full speed playable up to stage 4 on easy mode then freezes.
Monster Truck Madness - Menu is now visible.
Mortal Kombat 4 - Characters are no longer black, except now the background is black (Unknown reasons)
Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon - makes text visble, splits goemon in half, freezes outside (always has)
Pokemon Stadium 2 - Most locations are visible and playale
Rush 2 - All graphics are fixed (Las vegas)
San Fransico Rush
Snowboard Kids 2 - Fixed menu
Super Mario 64 - Makes game look better in certain locations
Tom Clancys rainbow 6 - makes game all grey.

Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 - Fixed the Letters and other stuff
Twisted Edge Snowboarding - removes purple snow at start however it doesnt look like snow yet
Tsumu to Batsu - Sin and Punishment First level is now visible, except the top of the screen is laggy (This is for you Tatsujin, thanks so much for your help)

[stotheamuel]

I do notice some better gfx in mario 64 from time to time and there is an obvious increase in zelda

two thumbs up

[Briggzy11]

yeh i was happy testing these for you Wally they're great, o well Im off bed lol its 6:21 am...

...Have fun editing wally :):):)

[mditalia13]

what zelda game is that?

[tophead420]

what zelda game is that?

its Ocarina of time in my mind the greatest Zelda of all time and is this just as good as the official as far as speed cuz the official one is great but ill give this a try lol

[mditalia13]

how do you save in this game? is it like super mario 64?

[BL4Z3D247]

yes all the games will save like mario 64, press select after saving the game

[Alucard]

Two questions:

1) Do the saves work in Zelda now? They didn't before.

2) How much faster is Zelda? FPS?

I have been dying to play Zelda on the go. This may be blasphamy, but I never beat Zelda. I didn't like these types of games till I got older.

[mat_dizzy]

Yesh CMON :D

[BL4Z3D247]

wow i haven't played Zelda-OOT on daedalus since R4 and OMG how this game sped up :D, cut scene was going from 5-12 fps, 16 fps when Navi first arrives at Link, and in Link's hut it goes 15 fps, then u get outside and it goes back down to 4-7 fps

[Kramer]

Yeah i cant wait for zelda oot to be at a steady 15fps that's when ill start playing it.

[BL4Z3D247]

yeh i'm with u on that Kramer :)

ohh and to save hit start, then square twice then select, works fine

[pkmusicmaker]

Are the stars in Mario now completely yellow? No more black bottom?

[Mr.Denny]

Sounds great wally!

:)

[NoQuarter]

Awesome job wally,really appreciate your work on this:)

[Viper Snake]

Nice work. :D

The game that probably needs texture fixing the most is probably fzero x, its purple and black pretty much everywhere ingame lol. (Death Race is all I seem to be able to get into).

[alleyal202]

Yo wally,great work,first the start of that very good r8 game list now this.i havent tried it out yet but i will try.i have one question for u wally?if your playing around with the sc,can u see whats going on with goldeneye?by the way when u going to release some more info on the compact list?

[AtariFreek]

Is Micro Machines Turbo A Little Less Purple Now?

[Alucard]

Thanks for the response guys. I am with you on this. Zelda definately needs a good 15FPS to be playable.

[jak66]

anyone tried super smash brothers with this yet, may be able to see characters when playing vs now

[.:}<3\/!}\{:.]

Is Micro Machines Turbo A Little Less Purple Now?
you never try things for yourself, but i never try stuff myself.(i cant be bother) :D :D

[sroon]

Hey Wally!
Glad I could help!
( O ) ( O )

[Kvonx]

great job even thigh i havent tried it yet!!!

[m64fan]

can you save in zelda in this version

[psman]

cool speedup thx wally

[Kvonx]

tha text in quest 64 is now readable

[Exoskeletor]

Nah its my update :)
are you in contact with the daedalus author so he can add this updates on the next release?

[felonyr301]

wait i thought it was just a graphics fix not a speed up psman its probably in your head lol. and yea as much as i love zelda OOT im gonna wait till its faster to really play it like 15 fps steady sounds good but honestly the part that made the experience a classic was the sounds of the game so i really cant wait for sound to be put on this game its the only game i care for on the n64 and of course zelda majora's mask too cant forget that lol..

[r-complex]

can someone kxploit it for me...

I havent found a proper kxploit app for mac yet (A moderator would be prefered)

Hey Wally! Try HomebrewPSP Converter for OSX! I've used it on several older 1.0 apps and have had pretty good luck so far!:D

[r-complex]

Hey Wally! Try HomebrewPSP Converter for OSX! I've used it on several older 1.0 apps and have had pretty good luck so far!:D

I wuz kinda hopin' someone might continue the Vectrex EMU! And, Heretic! It looks Much Better than DooM! 480x272 and not that 320x200 S-c-a-l-e-d pixel stuff!

[flippkidd69]

hey wally wasap... quick question.. can u implement a frame skip in a new build ? hope its not too much.. but i think it really helps gameplay and maybe make alot more games worth playing PLUS+++ it will make this build alot sweeter cuz damn i think its even faster !!! jst imagine a 1 frame skip setting on that frame rate !.. ok ok im gettin ahead of my self.. just a suggestion :D

[robjanos]

hey wally how did you get so far in zelda oot?

[Wally]

First of all thanks for all your support.
Secondly here is a new release!
-- Read ME ---
The Current Release has most graphical fixes for these games
Banjo Kazooie -
Big Mountain 2000 - Game looks better now, however black splotches exist in snow in some places.
007- World is not enough - Works really good now, except bonds hands are glitchy
Bust a move 1, 2, DX - Now full speed
Custom Robo - Game looks much better however Some sprites such as your player arent visible.
Doom - Makes background black although game is slow anyhow
Dr Mario - Fixes a lot of problems but still the game is scrambled up.
Extreme G- Lots more stuff visible now in menus.
F-Zero X - Game is full speed and working with all current graphics
Forsaken - Minor graphical hiccups cured (Full speeder)
Glover - Makes outside of castle dark, however moving up after mr tippy finishes talking will go inside castle.
Legend of Zelda - Various locations fixed and some go dark. (Chance of getting raped by a zombie is very high if adult)
Megaman 64- Fixed minor graphical glitches
Micro machines Turbo - Most things visible now, game is full speed playable up to stage 4 on easy mode then freezes.
Monster Truck Madness - Menu is now visible.
Mortal Kombat 4 - Characters are no longer black, except now the background is black (Unknown reasons)
Super Mario 64 - Makes game look better in certain locations
Pokemon Stadium 2 - Most locations are visible and playable
Tony Hawks Pro Skater 3 - Fixed the Letters and other stuff
Tsumu to Batsu - Sin and Punishment First level is now visible, except the top of the screen is laggy (This is for you Tatsujin, thanks so much for your help)
Virtual Pool - Makes game unplayable..

Some fixes will make games unplayable (Turning textures black, like in doom how purple you can see and black you cant :) ) however there could be a speed boost of 1fps or so in some games.

-- End read me --
Pkmusicmaker: Apparently so, i havent tested it myself

Viper Snake: That has been fixed in the current release which im releasing here

r-complex: Nah its not working for me, some strange reason

flippkidd69: Its already been tried, and its not going to be tried again. Im no real programmer to be honest!! ;) I just know how to do things like this.

Atarifreak: Its playable to the full extent, i suggest you try it.

jakk : Super Smash bros hasnt been fixed up yet, im not intending to bother with it until it works with dynarec

Exoskeletor: Im some extent yes, I will pass it on to strmnNrmn if i can get in touch with him

felonyr301: Yes you are quite correct, its just a graphical fixup which then somehow makes games faster.

Im glad its also fixing up other games too :)

I probably wont work on this tonight as i have 2 assignments due shortly.

anyhow enjoy!

[BL4Z3D247]

heres the 1.5 download, for people that need it

[CheeseSlayer]

Full Speed F-zero!!! No Way?!

[SpacemanSpiff]

Does F-Zero actually make it into a race? I thought it crashed at first because the debug menu was stuck for a while, but after around 30 seconds it loaded the game but it doesn't take up the entire screen for some reason. I tried to start a tournament but it appears to have crashed now, its been around 2 minutes and nothings happened.

[stotheamuel]

hey wally how did you get so far in zelda oot?

Downloading a save

[Wally]

F-Zero X is full speed in death match mode for those wondering

Stotheamuel - thanks for answering that, forgot about that :)

[Wally]

[BL4Z3D247]

[Baboon]

I cant believe there’s another update here already!

As soon as I finish work I’ll be downloading this version of Daedalus. Thanks for the great progress your making on this Wally, the list of games that are working well is really shaping up now! :)

I hope all these fixes get used by strummn on his next release?

Top stuff.


...and thanks to blazed247 for the 1.5 download. :D

[alleyal202]

No i dont know video freak;)

[alleyal202]

Im a Yay Area Boss!

[alleyal202]

But hi video,i live in vallejo,how about u?

[Panini]

Spam?? :eek:

[tsurumaru]

C-C-C-Combobreaker!

alleyal202 you can edit your previous posts to add additional comments rather than triple post. In forums some consider even double posting as bad etiquette ;)

[Gray Fox]

Whats this? An update on daedulus? What does it fix? Fix purple couloured things in the games listed to right colours?

[tsurumaru]

Whats this? An update on daedulus? What does it fix? Fix purple couloured things in the games listed to right colours?

Yes, Wally the kind soul, and a few other from Strmnnrmn's blog have been collecting the missing mux files and then entering them into Daedalus to release a new version that includes these textures and thus fixes the black/purple problems in the listed roms.

[Wally]

Update today :) See first page

Added:
Rush 2
Sanfransico Rush ( I think)
Mario Kart - dunno what this is? I think its wrong
And others

[tsurumaru]

Update today :) See first page

Hey thanks Wally, new post on Strmnnrmn's blog by the way, he has posted how to activate Daedalus' debug mode. This might help with your work here :).

[Wally]

I cant work it out man :P

Its confusing

[alleyal202]

Keep up the good work.Will test later tonight

[razorak]

AeroGauge still crashes after the first race =(

[Gray Fox]

I must say im really impressed, R8 original played Command & conquer with everything purple at gameplay and something purple at menu, but now in wallys release nearly everything is coloured or black, but better black that purple lol

[Baboon]

007 The world is not enough, Micro machines, and Extreme G are all now very playable and aseptically pleasing! :)

Thanx again for this uopdate.

[alleyal202]

SF rush works now!some graphic issues

[Wally]

[alleyal202]

[Mr.Denny]

I think you have to just download a previous release and place the Eboot with Wallys Eboot.

[sroon]

Do u know when a real n64 emulator will be out one that will run any game and be reliable

[tsurumaru]

Do u know when a real n64 emulator will be out one that will run any game and be reliable

What?

This is now the only N64 emulator for the PSP, its a work in progress so of course its not perfect.

Be very grateful that you have even this emulator, before its release we only had Monkey64's very basic (but appreciated) work.

Future versions will have an increased compatibility with games and improved graphics and speed. The programmer works very hard on this emulator but he is not a miracle worker, these things take a lot of patience, hard work, and time.

[rehbock]

Do u know when a real n64 emulator will be out one that will run any game and be reliable


You should shame.
Just a low aged isogamer can tell such sentence you should respect work of others.
Daedalus works fine and some games already fullspeed Puzzlebubble or halfspeed -> Super Mario , Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1
So make up ur mind before posting such crap questions and read the rules, which already tells you dont to ask for fullspeed XYZ Emulator

[blackrave]

Thanks for this R8. Looks very improved. Is it any faster than R7 or "just" the graphical improvements? Thanks again.

[tsurumaru]

Thanks for this R8. Looks very improved. Is it any faster than R7 or "just" the graphical improvements? Thanks again.

Wally and others have fixed some of the missing textures that were present in the official R8 version (Which is 3-10 frames per second faster than R7! It really depends on what games you are running as to the improvement).

Regards.

[dski1326]

do u know were to get super mario for n64? Everywhere i go to it is esa protected. PLZ help. Srry about the earlier coment i didn't mean to be mean.:(

[publicprivates]

stop asking for roms or go suck an egg. Read the rules. No rom sharing.

[Broadus]

I can't get any of the downloads for Wally's version of R8 to work (1.0 and 1.5). Could someone link me to a download that works, or does my computer just have mysterious problems?
I'd like someone to try the downloads themselves before they decide my computer just has mysterious problems.

[xxcolbyxx]

WOW, what am awesome emulator and thread. I stumbed across this forum by accident looking for PSP games.

Does anyone know how i might change the Z button so it will be assigned to the L shoulder button of the PSP? This would help me immensely in Zelda OOT instead of having to use triangle. Thanks for the awesome emulator and i'll be waiting patiently for an update. =D

Edit: Thanks scroon for that zelda save file, but i'm having trouble using it. I unzipped it and put the 2 files into the savegame directory, but when i get into the actual game i dont see the file in the menu screen. Everything is still, well, empty.

Edit2: Well, wudduya know, the Readme was a big help =) For those who wish to get the save file to work also, you have to RENAME the save files as your original ROM.

[CaptainMorgan4]

You would have to be an experienced coder to change some of the controls sorry, but StrmnNrmn did add control schemes you can choose from in the options screen so try that. I don't play Zelda so I wouldn't know, but yeah I hope StrmnNrmn updates soon I'm getting worried.
