mupen64plus-core VS RMG

https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/releases is this not the same core?

This PR https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/pull/873 merged in June 2022 finally makes Hey You Pikachu playable without the original hardware. No credit on my part, I am not involved in any development, but there are some brilliant people in that thread that used the reverse engineering documents for the device from zoinkity and the documents on ultra64 to make this a reality (Thank you loganmc10, if you ever see this. Bringing back my childhood :')).

Mupen64plus (N64 emulator) is purely C: https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core

It works fine if you use a custom mupen64plus core with the new dynarec. The upstream version has a small regression.

I'm trying to apply the following modifications to games-emulation/mupen64plus-core-2.5.9-r2.

VRU: https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/pull/873

On the topic of emulating old hardware, this reminds me of the Nintendo 64 VRU accessory, which is a mic + voice recognition that was used in games such as Hey You Pikachu. Nobody has emulated the hardware which performed the actual voice recognition, instead opting for modern VR libraries. So while you can use it in an emulator, the performed VR won't match what you'd get with limited hardware implementation.

>This is an HLE implementation. I did not emulate the manner in which the VRU does voice recognition

Try these: https://www.reddit.com/r/RetroArch/comments/kzczl3/mupen64plusnext\_is\_it\_possible\_to\_customize/ https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core/issues/414

What distribution of that in particular though? The official repo https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core hasn't had a new release in 7 years.

N64: RMG (Pra baixar, clica no link RMG-Portable-Windows64-v0.4.0.zip)

I hands down recommend RMG: https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG/releases

If you can't find another solution, give RMG a try instead. I don't know really anything about PJ64. But RMG is solid. https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG/releases

Suggested for customization: RMG

Yeah it is, check the download section or releases tab here https://github.com/Rosalie241/RMG

Well at least for me BigPEmu the Jaguar emulator came out of nowhere and I've read it's pretty good. I don't think there's been much progress on the N64 front, but I think Rosalie's Mupen GUI which is fairly new has become one of the easiest/best ways to emulate N64 these days. And although not a 'system emulator' as such, DREAMM is also a fairly recent project for playing old LucasArts games.
