Frequently Asked Questions

First of all, before looking here read the Manual!!

F.A.Q.

• The Plugin fails to load!
  Use the latest DirectX-Version( 8.0 at least ). I wont courage u to use a Beta-Version however, the M$-Releases are buggy enough!. Download from here
• Why does the Emulator keep showing "No Controller"?
  The Emulator acts like a real N64, U will have to restart the Emulation if U dint had a Controller configured at startup.
• The Profile i downloaded works like shite!
  Read the Textfile of the Profile, some need Adjustments in the Game.
• Why is the Pak not working?
  Check RAW Mode, if RAW is unselected it depends on the Emulator to handle the Pak.
• I changed the Paks during the game, why aint it working?
  U cant change them anytime, if U do u will probably corrupt it if its a MemPak, always wait for the Game to asks for changing Paks!
• The Game tells me the MemPak is damaged?
  Thats normal if U created a new MemPak-File. If U dint it says that the Data on the MemPak got corrupted. Most Games allow to "Repair" (read: Format) it. Theres also the Option to format it within the Plugin
• Why is the RumblePak not working?
  RumblePak needs a GamePad thats Force-FeedBack capable, and is assigned to atleast one Control / Modifier. N64-PC Adapters that dont support Force-FeedBack in the Drivers wont work.
  Also the way a N64 drives Rumble-Strength is a torture to the Gamepad drivers, its likely it wont feel like the real thing and possible that its soo weak U wont recognise it. To test if Rumble works, goto Devices Tab where You can adjust Rumble-Strength and press a Gamepad Button( aint workin on "Direct-Rumble" setting ).
• Can I transfer Pokemons into Pokemon Stadium?
  Yes, either by using an Adaptoid and REAL Gameboy-Catridges, or with using an regular Save from an GB-Emulator - Savestates wont work. Transferpak-Emulation was added by MadManMarkAu to the (open) Source of the Plugin
• Can I emulate Gameboy-Roms in Pokemon Stadium?
  No. Theoretically yes, but it aint working through an Adaptoid either.
• Im using a Adaptoid with "Direct-Rumble"..why are the Effects not like on a real N64?
  "Direct Rumble" will produce very authentic Rumble-Effects, but only if the Game runs with the same speed like on a real N64. Its that way cause if the Game runs on different speed the Intervalls between Rumble-Commands are longer( slowdowns ) or shorter( faster than N64 ) than they should be.
• Rapid Fire in Paper Mario (or Star Fox etc) doesn't work!
  Some games can't handle the rate of fire the plugin produces. When using macros, select the Slow Rapid Fire option as well as the Rapid Fire option to fix this.
• Project 64 crashes when I close the rom with PJ64 version 1.5
  This is strangely not happening to all People. Seems to be problem with the 1.5 version of PJ64, and not the fault of the plugin. Currently, there is no woraround for this problem. If this is unacceptable, using an older version of PJ64 (version 1.4) will solve this problem.
