How to Install Previous Version of mupen64plus to get Super Mario Star Road working
-
@quicksilver Really? Maybe I'll try it again with that Core in the morning then (but I need to download an older version don't I? Which seems a whole other can of worms...)
Thanks again!
-
@AdamBeGood lr-mupen64plus is an old core, don't need to do anything special with it
-
I still get this I'm afraid.... :(
-
@AdamBeGood darn! Well if you get to the point where you would like to try again to get it working let me know. I think at this point you pretty much have everything you need. It sounds like you just need to get the proper mario64 rom to start with before patching.
-
@quicksilver Yeah, maybe I will wait a bit. I've been adding a lot of games recently and there is a bit of fatigue! I did use the Rom that the ReadMe suggested the more recent time I tried this though... One thing I didn't do the same was the Extender, as the version on the website I got the Rom from was no longer available.
One little thing, crackle on sound effects on Mupen64plus - there is nothing to be done about that is there? Rogue Squadron and Mario Kart are two offenders.
-
@AdamBeGood which exact version/plugin of mupen64plus are you getting the crackling with?
-
@quicksilver mupen64-GLideN64
I am unsure how to get the version, but I installed it by binary which was built on 24th April.

Go to
/opt/retropie/configs/all/autoconf.cfgand make sure that
mupen64plus_audio = "0"If it is, then proceed to the next step, if its not then change it to "0", then start a game using gliden64 and then quit the game (this will populate the the section we need in the next config).
Next go to
/opt/retropie/configs/n64/mupen64plus.cfgand go to the section[Audio-SDL]you will see the line below. Make sure
RESAMPLE = "trivial"just as I have it.# Audio resampling algorithm. src-sinc-best-quality, src-sinc-medium-quality, src-sinc-fastest, src-zero-order-hold, src-linear, speex-fixed-{10-0}, trivial RESAMPLE = "trivial"Now your audio will sound a lot better :)
-
@quicksilver Dear me, that is soooooo much better. Do you have any other changes that I might be missing out on? That has basically sorted the issue entirely, Shadows of the Empire was pretty horrible to listen to before.
-
@AdamBeGood Make sure that the gliden64 hybrid filter is turned off. The setting is also in the mupen64plus.cfg under the
[Video-GLideN64]section.
Make sureEnableHybridFilter = False -
@quicksilver Perfect, I did that previously as I read it in the "Getting the best N64 experience on a Pi 4" thread.
Everything seems to be running pretty bloody well now! Mystical Ninja Starring Goeman excepted. I am very happy with my Pi 4, maybe I can be running some games in higher resolutions and so forth but so far as playability everything is very playable.

What is the issue with this game? Is it just slow or other issues?
