  1. Error accessing drive or invalid folder. Setting to C:

     

    Other than that roms and plugins run fine... With the exception of OoT either the regular or debug. I guess it might be the VM but it seems weird that only OoT doesn't work. I'll head down to my office and try it on my Hackintosh.

  2. I'm having trouble getting OoT or MM running in nemu. So first off I'm running it in a virtual machine using VMware on my iMac. I know everyones going to jump to the conclusion that its the VM buuuut, every game I have thrown at nemu runs at more or less full speed except for the two Zelda games. I've changed RDRAM size to 8MB and I'm running Jabo 1.5.2...

     

    I take that back, I just tried running MM again and it runs fine. So basically its only OoT. I get the error

     

    "Nemu64 has stopped running"

     

    I've tried running it in project64 and it works fine. Any thoughts?

     

    Edit: I forgot to mention, this is with both the normal rom and the debug rom

  3. As per Jabba's idea, I am starting a thread for discussion of MM hacking. Discuss it, show your stuff off -- it's all fine. :)

    Sorry to bump an old topic, but I thought this had some decent stuff in it. That and I couldn't find the topic the good ol Colonel created (By all means point me to it). 

     

    Sooooo, wondering if in the past year anyone has done anything interesting with MM. With the URA team moving the project to the MM engine I was hoping to see some cool things that weren't really too show offy of URA and could be shared with the community.

  4. One thing that occurred to me was that Headmaster Gaepora's first name may be Rauru. Since people in positions of authority are usually referenced by their last name. It makes some sense, though I could be wrong. It seems to be implied also that Sages don't age, so it could very well be the same person. *shrug*

     

     

     

    Gaepora is not Raura, confirmed by Aonuma. They just named him that because the character designs were similar.

  5. Heres an example of a shortcoming in SS. In the cutscenes in Skyloft when the camera pans above and you can see the cross hatching of the trees where you can see its just 2D layers cross to create a 3D effect. Sure from far away its a good trick but that was what they were doing on the N64 and to expose in a cut scene I think is a bit silly, like a magician revealing his illusion, some people might not even notice it, but it just shows that the Wiis time is coming to an end and this is the best it can do, which I think SS has shown and its a great way to bow the console out.

  6. Oh, so I guess you missed this then, Jabba? As I clearly said here, I DO NOT think old games look bad(naturally, this includes OoT and MM). Also, your wording, whether you choose to believe or not, made it sound like good graphics make a good game. So sorry you couldn't have done that better.

     

    I was high, lol.

     

     

     

    Also, LOLWUT? What is this "blinded by Zelda vision" thing you just came up with? So I am blind just because I love Skyward Sword's graphics more than another game's? Do you realize how much sense that does not make?

     


    This was sent from a magical space satellite in the Andromeda Galaxy. Hurr.

     

    No, as I said, if you enjoy them more, then all fairness to you, but on a technical level, they do not touch Battlefield, fact!

  7. A little disclaimer:

    I am not trying to flame anyone here by any means, I am just getting REALLY FRUSTRATED by how some people look at this subject. Yeah, I know: Opinions, Dashie! Well, some opinions are wrong.

     

     

     

    Ever play OoT, or MM? Graphics are bad, yet the games are not "shit". You need to lose the mindset of caring so much about graphics, because your post looked like you thought them being good almost always makes the game, and them being bad breaks it. You're wrong. So damn wrong, and no matter how many tines you try to say you're right, you're wrong.

     

    I mean, honestly. How ignorant is it to tell me to try and find a game with bad graphics that's good? Like they never existed? Especially when we've had them for DECADES? I swear to God, there's way more to games.

     

    (also, I do not even THINK games of old look bad, it's just something I like to call "kid standards" of today that label their graphics as bad)

     

     

    Exactly what I was talking about. Since when were the graphics in OoT or MM bad? You might think they are, but I don't. For one they are N64 games, compared to any other games at the time they were best looking around, if they weren't they would not get near perfect scores. The graphics in MM even surpass those in OoT and in my opinion still look great today. What your doing is looking for gaes that may have aged and possibly not aged well.

     

    Starfox - Good game - Good Graphics

    Mischief Makers - Good game - Good Graphics

    Perfect Dark - Good game - Good Graphics

    Conkers Bad Fur Day - Good game - Good Graphics

    Tomb Raider - Good game - Good Graphics

    Bomberman - Good game - Good Graphics

    Links Awakening DX - Good game - Good Graphics

    Zone of the Enders - Good game - Good Graphics

    Metal Gear Solid - Good game - Good Graphics

    Resident Evil - Good game - Good Graphics

     

    Most of the new generation Sonic games - bad games - Good Graphics

    Conduit 1 and 2 - bad games - Good Graphics for the Wii

    3D MK games before the relaunch Bad games - Good graphics

     

    Now I can't think of any games that are great and have shit graphics.

     

    Look at the contenders for game of the year, Portal 2, Arkham Asylum, Skyward Sword, Uncharted 3 and Skyrim, all great look games, I mean they are really up there.

     

    Theres something you so did not get from my post, which was... Graphics don't matter. Great games will nearly always have great graphics. Shit games have good graphics. What I'm saying is you can't tell just by looking at it, you actually have to play it, because lets face it, nowadays most games look good and if they don't most of the time they are shit like.

     

    The great thing about the Wii and to an extent DLC is that it given developers a challenge, to make something look good with the limitations they were given and people have been really pulling it out of the bag. Games like Braid and Bit Trip look amazing.

     

     

    Also I'd just like to point out, Battlefield 3 is one of the best looking games ever made along with Crysis. You might say the artists style of SS is better and you prefer it, but the graphics are no way better and if you do think that your being blinded by Zelda vision.
