      I have an older .so if you like that doesn't seem to have the performance issues.

        Would love it if you can share. (Did you notice these performance issues too? Seriously, I could be imaging this.)

          Yeah, Goldeneye is completely unplayable.

          With this older .so it's at least playable(ish).

          I'll attach the whole folder as a zip to replace /opt/retropie/emulators/mupen64plus if you wanted older files, if not you can just get the .so and try that.

              In other news - there seems to be an effort to improve performance a bit, there are come commits pending a pull request and also fixes for this issue.

              Once they're up I'll update this thread so everyone knows and can test it.

                Thanks a lot for posting. For some reason, overwriting my .so file with that older one or even the whole folder results in N64 games failing to launch at all. FFS. I had the same issue when overwriting my .so with the file I extracted from RetroPie image file.

                You don't have any ideas on what's wrong, do you?

                  It'll be because the version of mupen64 will be different I think the dependancies are different.

                  Use the latest binary for mupen64 in Retropie-Setup it seems someone applied a patch to it a whole 13 days ago that fixes the issue. It seems pretty quick now too.

                    I just applied this fix using the .so file above (@steeeb's file) however I none of the games load and they just go back to the main menu screen.

                    What is the next best emulator to use? I set it to the lr-mupenplus for now which seems to work

                    Thanks

                      Read the last replies - the problem is resolved. Ensure your RetroPie-Setup script is updated and reinstall mupen64plus (either binary or source should be OK, but the latter is probably working a bit better right now). Don't use the library posted, as it is not in sync with the latest mupen64plus core changes.
