You have to download Jabo's D3D8 plugin (sorry, no link. I can email it to you if you provide me with your email); and rename it to 7 instead of 8.

That should fix it.
If you have any other problems, let me know. My info should be in my profile. <<;

seems like a very well writen guide. im not having problems yet since my controller isnt hooked up im just wondering if someone can explain to me how hooking up the controller works. like i google usb adaptor to try nad find what i need but the only thing i found plugs into the mouse stop and then has a usb on the other side. im looking to plug in either a ps2 or an n64 controller not a mouse.

thanks for any help

 

[igotHYRULEbannedatTOYWIZwitmarth]

thanks man

 

[ShoeThief]

Can anyone help my problem? After playing a while with pretty much any game a message pops up saying "Max Codes blocks reached"

 

[Umbrasquall]

Did you managed to fix this? I've never seen this error before, and I don't know what it could be. If I have to guess it would have to do with not enough RAM. What are your computer specs?

Hi. I'm new here. You probably noticed immediately. :x

Anyway. I'm not having any problems playing. (aside from insane lag when trying to record with fraps, and not understanding how to get online at all.) but.. all of the shields are flat, and Samus' beam doesn't get bigger.. and is nearly non-existent. The link in the first post doesn't work, and the most recent version I can get is 1.4, apparently. Can anyone help me out here? I don't want pancake shields. ; _ ;

Go search for Project64 1.6 on google. People should do that more often, you know.

To fix the graphical error, download this here, and save it to inside your plugins folder wherever your emulator is saved.

 

[ShadowTaz]

I got 1.6, and it fixed those problems, but now weird stuff happens in the menus. Like half of Fox's face will disappear in the character select screen. (Just an example. Other things happen at random.) and the sound randomly distorts. @_@

Does it affect you ingame?

 

[smash superstar]

can someone help?


in the file tab i dont have the choice netplay

 

[brawlpro]

My problem wasn't answered I think, whenever I start a game while the emulation is starting it straight up says "A problem has occurred with project64.exe and it needs to close, windows will notify you if there is a solution available"

Thats all it says it says nothing about a graphic problem.

 

[Rupus]

Vista? I believe it's answered on the first post if you're using Vista.

 

[D.Q]

OK, now this sucks. I was messing around with the cheats and set one of the computers to be giant Donkey Kong. Of course, when the game ended the emulator crashed. So anyway, I opened up pj64k again, and this time i came up with this error: "Unhandled R4300i OpCode at 80000180 dsrav v1,a3,r0
Stoping Emulation!"
Tried another fresh copy, same thing, blah blah blah. Any help appreciated, same error occurs on Kailera as well.

 

[Sensei]

You could try deleting and reinstalling pj64k.

 

[Thino]

also check if cheats arent saved even when u close the rom

 

[D.Q]

Never mind, glitch seems to have disappeared, dunno why, maybe because I selected the mushroom kingdom cheat and the all char cheat. thnx anyway

 

[flaco]

vista suxks just change your os and almost all these prob will be cleared

 

[D.Q]

uh...I'm not using vista.

 

[SPAWN]

Could someone help me please? I got everything to work for it (graphics etc)... and I got my n64 controller hooked up to my computer. I also downloaded the nrage thing. Changed all my settings to match the controller. and took off the things said in the directions.

Here's the problem, I can't dash, I can't do pikachu's upb move in a direction (besides up)... or 2. I also cannot go down through platforms with shield or normally. Hell, I can't even walk off platforms. I played around with the deadzone, even set it to 0 and my controller still wouldn't dash. Any tips. Yes, my controller will dash on the normal system.

Edit: I also can't roll.

Edit2: I can't do smash attacks.

Edit3: NVM I GOT IT TO WORK, I CHANGED MY ANALOG REACH. I thought that unchecking the real n64 range would take care of that... silly me.

 

[SuPeRbOoM]

calibrate your controller under control panel

 

[SPAWN]

Yeah I got it, thanks for the help anyways though.

Anyone know how to get rid of lag on Kaillera? I was using a laptop so would that contribute to it?

 

[flaco]

well lag is always gonna be there but just get a better computer and don't play it in a laptop desktop are much better for that my friend

 

[SPAWN]

Any specific reason desktops are better? My desktop is still on a wireless connection.

 

[DarkDragoon]

Ahuh...
Well, I just got this, and I can use PJ64k as an Emulator offline, but I can't get it to load without crashing using "Start Game" in Kaillera.
I'll keep messing with it, but I can't get it to work yet @_@.
-DD

 

[SPAWN]

Okay. I'll help you out around Esticle/on aim sometime.. if you can't get it working.

 

[flaco]

well I mean that desktop are more stable and they will less crash bro

 

[heeheex2]

i know this has probably already been answered, but when i try to run pj64k (which is v 1.4)or the other version included in the zip file (v. 1.3), and i double click to open a game. It loads, but right when it says 100% loaded, an error message comes up

.. sorry if it's already been answered, i was too lazy to check the other posts =P

 

[Rupus]

Could you have at least checked the first post?

It's right there.

Get Jabo's 3D8 plugin, and rename it Jabo_Direct3D7.dll . Shove it in your plugins folder, and say yes to overwriting the old one.

 

[brawlpro]

yea i'll try it thino.

 

[Thino]

OMFG !! just backup and delete the old one lawl

 

[heeheex2]

i had 3D7 and 3D6 already in there.. do i delete 3D6?

 

[SPAWN]

My laptop has had close to 0 lag now. :D

 

[Thino]

i had 3D7 and 3D6 already in there.. do i delete 3D6?

nah d3d6 has nothing to do with it , u gotta get d3d8 , from normal pj64 1.6 folder , then rename pj64k's d3d7 into something else for backup , then copypaste d3d8 into pj64k's plugin folder and finally rename it to d3d7 lol

 

[FluxWolf]

Hey everyone, I went through the guide and read everything pretty carefully I think, but I am still having problems. It is with the Audio plugin, and its causing pj64k to fail and not let me play. Any suggestions? Thanks.

 

[SPAWN]

I had the same problem. I had my pj64k running perfectly, then one day it didn't work.

Unfortunately, you have to delete everything, and redo the process. I'm sorry, but that's what I did. I hope I helped. You asked for any suggestions. ^_^
------------------------------------------------------------
Now for my problem:

My pj64k has in its plugin folder:

Adaptoid_v1_0.dll
AudioHLE.dll
Homepage
Jabo_DInput.dll
Jabo_Direct3D6.dll
Jabo_Direct3D7.dll
Jabo_Dsound.dll
No Sound.dll
NRage_DInput8.dll
NRage_DInput8_V2.dll
Readme
RSP.dll
sidewinder USB.ctp
sidewinder USB.jsf
Zilmar_Audio.dll

My problem is I can't see my cursor/shield/fox's shine, etc. I didn't modify anything in my plugins folder, all I did was download it then add in the new NRage's controller plugin. That's it.

If you could help me out it'd be most appreciated, thank you. I hope I've included all the info needed.

 

[brawlpro]

whenever i click on a plugin, it says it was damaged or removed or something, and I don't remember doing any of that, also..I can't find jabo's 3d8 plugin.

 

[studgangsta]

"Ahuh...

I have the same problem!!!! why??? it worked before!! it just stopped for no reason!!

 

[Umbrasquall]

Updated, figured I should add on the extra solutions in case someone's running Aero.
