Tehpola has posted a new screenshot of Mario 64 working on the port of Mupen to the Gamecube and Wii.

If its correct then the FPS looks awesome

Very solid progress thus far. I think the previous build of the emu was running Mario 64 at a maximum of 12 frames per second.

So, to get up to 32 fps, that's just over halfway to 60 fps, the speed at which N64 games naturally ran at.

Nice, glad to know it's being ported!

mario 64 runs 30 frames though so its already full speed. certain games like super smash bros run at 60, and zelda mm and oot both run at 20 for full speed. just to let you know

I dunno, pretty much every game that i've ever tried on project 64 reads at a fps of 60, so unless that's off then it seems they all run at 60.

I really hope the next version will be wii friendly , hence just be able to run it straight from dvd-r since people using the SD card way are really a very small minority.

Are you serious? sdcard users only thats useless then. I thought I could load directly from dvd using my qoob pro moded gamecube. Or even load the dol file onto the qoob pro (depending on size).

Oh Well.
