Emulation Best way to play every possible N64 game on wiiu

[SaulFabre]

Hi Guys,

has someone managed to run the romhack ultimate trial on wii u?
I have tried it with wii64 and i couldn't save the game.

Does someone have an idea what I could try?

Not64 I am not familiar and I dont have a suitable controller

can i ask for what game is that romhack? i think for Zelda: OoT?
i think you're talking about this one?

That's the one

some rom patches for a few "unplayable" N64 games on Wii.

Knife Edge: Nose Gunner (USA) - original patch from https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/issues/930#issuecomment-1960105283
tested with Not64 (glN64). menus still too fast but at least the gameplay speed is normal (about 20 FPS), making it playable.
note: if you're playing on Wii, set CPU Clock Divider to 2 to reduce slowdowns during the text cutscenes.
apply this patch to this rom:
ROM name: Knife Edge - Nose Gunner (USA).z64
CRC32: 255EE1DD

Top Gear Hyper-Bike (USA) - patch based on https://github.com/Klozz/Daedalusx64/blob/master/Daedalus.cht#L4926
tested with Not64 (glN64). at least makes the game bootable. However the game has some weird random texture issues in the race tracks so you could get confused while gameplay. Technically playable but not fun to look at.
don't try to play this in Wii64 Rice, it won't boot. (maybe incomplete Rice GFX emulation?)
apply this patch to this rom:
ROM name: Top Gear Hyper-Bike (USA).z64
CRC32: 6EEBC26A

Top Gear Overdrive (USA) - patch based on https://github.com/Klozz/Daedalusx64/blob/master/Daedalus.cht#L4956
Not64 has some issues in the menus, but in-game is fine.
best way to play this is using Wii64 Rice, almost perfect GFX.
first boot the patched rom, then load another rom to save the entry in RiceVideoLinux.ini, then edit said file (RiceVideoLinux.ini) and add the following config to solve the graphical issues:

AccurateTextureMapping=2
NormalColorCombiner=1
UseCIWidthAndRatio=1
AlternativeTxtSizeMethod=1
ForceScreenClear=1

apply this patch to this rom:
ROM name: Top Gear Overdrive (USA).z64
CRC32: F3E0FF21

you'll need to use a patcher such Floating IPS or RomPatcher.js.

the Top Gear patches were made with the N64 GameShark Code Injector v4.4.2 by Triclon. i'll also attach it there. It needs Python 3 to run.

(ps: hopefully @pedro702 sees this)

so i tested on regular wii64,wii64 rice and not64

kife edge nose gunner while the game seems to run at locked 20 fps something is still off but its playable i guess.

top gear hyper bike like you said has lot of texture issues so i dont think it playable, i mean it runs but i dont see anyone playing an entire game with that much gfx glitches on the tracks.

Top gear overdrive yeah seems almost perfect ingame so this one is good imo.
