Nintendo 64 Core Problems

Hello there,

Been testing the waters with Retroarch on my Media Centre in the living room and am absolutely loving it, what a great job it does at handling everything i throw into it.

Unfortunately i have been having a whole lot of problems with the Nintendo 64 core, most games have a lot of flicker, if i set up with 1080p they don’t stretch to fit the screen (16:9) or they do but other games don’t, certain games have issues with every single video plugin (Rice, Glide, etc).

What are the best settings to have ? I am extremely used to Project 64 and it’s quite unfortunate that there isn’t a better core, i would love to have the games upscaled and running with nice shaders (i use hqx4 for all the other consoles).

Thank you, i honestly would appreciate some help.

N64 emulation is pretty ropey to be honest and why would you want to stretch to 16:9? If anything try 8:7. I’m so glad I have my N64 on my CRT and just use a FLASH cart.

I think it will be along time before we ever see a perfect working N64 emulator and I’ve never liked Mupen.
