Homebrew [RELEASE] DaedalusX64 (N64 Emulator)

[RocketRobz]

I have release a new version, now with experimental 3D support: https://github.com/masterfeizz/daedalusx64-3DS/releases/tag/v0.0.2

The texture quality is lower, and the games run slower, even with 3D turned off.
Would it be possible to revert the texture quality and fix the speed with 3D turned off?

Yes, this is just using an older experimental version of picaGL

I have a question.
Is it too far fetched to ask if there will be dynarec support?

Dynarec is also wanted for the vita port, so I guess it's a matter of time.

I remember reading two weeks ago in the Daedalus psp discord that if someone ever were crazy enough to try to make an N64 emulator run on the 3DS they should probably should probably not use daedalusx64 and rather the android port of mupen64plus, yet here we are Amazing work!

Would it be possible to make a DynaRec based upon a Mupen64Plus ARM DynaRec for some other ARM based device?

Some issues I feel should be fixed:

-rendering (some textures look weird, for example, Mario's face in SM64)

-SRAM and sound

Otherwise it's very impressive, especially since many once said it would be impossible, yet you have done it. Please continue development on this emulator.

I hope 0.0.3 comes with saving support

DaedalusX64 was never quite full speed on the PSP, but on the more powerful n3DS it could actually potentially run full speed. Excited to see where this goes.

I mean, full speed PS1 did happen, so it's possible

No you cannot play Superman 64. I can't get past this dang screen.

 

[SunlitSpace542]

The only games I've tried that are playable are Super Mario 64, Starfox 64, and Mario Kart 64 (kinda). The rendering issues really hinder the playability of some games. Plus, Mario's overgrown facial hair.

(even if there's problems, I'll certainly be playing the hell out of it!)

I mean this is great and all but why do we really need N64 emulation on the Nintendo 3DS? Most of Nintendo 64's greatest games could already be played on the Nintendo 3DS through the superior remasters that were made.

Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time- We literally have a Nintendo 3DS remake of this game that is superior to the original.
Legend of Zelda Majora's mask- Same thing we have a superior port
Mario Kart 64- We have our very own Mario Kart 7 game on the 3DS that has much better graphics and gameplay than the 64 version.
Super Mario 64- As the 3DS is backwards compatible with the original DS we could always play Super Mario 64 DS which has updated visuals.
Super Smash Bros- We have a Super Smash Bros game on the 3DS with arguably better visuals and more characters.
Donkey Kong Country- We have the Wii port which is great
Diddy Kong Racing- We have the Nintendo DS version we could natively play.
Rayman 2- Was already remade on the 3DS as Rayman 3DS
Goldenye 64- We have a superior version of this game already on the Wii. I believe it was also remade on the DS so you can play that.

In a lot of these cases, there may be ports, but they aren't exactly the same. Super Mario 64 DS and Super Mario 64 are a good bit different from each other, for instance, and I rather enjoy the original but don't play the DS one nearly as much. SM64 itself is one reason I'm hoping this emulator progresses - it'd be fun to attempt speedruns on the go. Same goes for Diddy, and to a lesser extent, the Zeldas.

Mario Kart, Smash Bros - those aren't replacements, just sequels. That's like saying Pokemon Ultra Sun is so good you'd never want to touch HeartGold again. They're different games with different qualities, and I'd still enjoy playing those on the 3DS as well.

Donkey Kong? There's no Donkey Kong Country on the N64... DK 64 is a completely different 3D game.

Dunno about the other two... but there's a lot of other good N64 games that I can hope to play in this emulator's future. Even if better (or just other) options may exist for them. Still!!

This is one of the most impressive pieces of 3ds homebrew ive ever seen.

May I suggest skipping every other frame to bring a few games into a playable speed?

This is great, I can't wait to see how far the performance improves once Dynarec is implemented. Keep up the good work guys!

The Majoras Mask remake sucks. They messed up the swimming mechanics badly. Luckily, there's a mod that fixes that.

I didnt know PS1 was fullspeed on the N3DS.

If you are referring to fullspeed ps1 on the psp, that was not emulation.

Yes, in the recent retroarch builds, many PS1 games run fullsped on the n3DS, even games that have 3D graphics.

Some suggestions for future additions:

-controller remapping
-an interface (preferably something like the interface in Bubble2k16's emulators)

CIA version would be nice too
