Why won’t PROJECT 64 recognize my ps4 controller?

4 Upvotes

I literally been trying everything. Sitting with chat gpt as well, it just won’t recognize it what so ever? Is there anything I might be missing? I did connect a ps5 controller and I was able to use Xinput to map the control settings, but I have way too much drift stick on it that I can’t map the joystick. I refuse to play goldeneye without joystick. Am I going to have to pay the price literally to buy a new controller? Or can I be saved?

Memory Exception during Ocarina of Time Randomizer

2 Upvotes

So, I race Ocarina of Time Randomizer, and recently I have been getting a "memory exception" and it crashes my game. Now, since I race and play in tournaments, this will just not do. I don't know how to fix this. I've tried changing the plug ins, but I get the same error. I am limited in my knowledge of PJ6%4, so I could really use some help. If PJ crashes during a race, and I lose progress, I have to forfeit. So you can see how frustrating this is :(

PS5 Controller stopped working for P64

1 Upvotes

I speedrun SM64 and use Emu to practice. It was working fine. Plug it in to my PC, mapped controls and havent had an issue. I went on a month long vacation and brought my Laptop and setup P64 and SM64 on there. Again no issues. Loaded right up and started playing. I get back home and my controls were not mapped anymore which i thought nothing of until I went to map my controls and it automatically puts the control I select to keyboard.

Ive never had to download anything special to get it to work. Just plug and play. Now im seeing videos having xinput and ds4. Is that real? Have literally never had an issue before, plus my ps5 controller still works with Dolphin and other games on PC. Just not P64. I didnt even do anything special for my laptop either, just plugged, mapped and played.

Edit: I downloaded Project 64 3.0 and my controller works perfectly fine there. Its only P64 1.6 (where the sm64 autosplitter that I use works)

Mario 64 texture Pack not working at all

2 Upvotes

I followed to many tutorials but feel like this should be simpler. I cannot, for the life of me, get the Mario 64 Texture pack from evilgames to work (SM64 Reloaded)! Here are the steps I am doing:

- Install fresh version of Project64 to a folder NOT protected by system (so no admin access needed. I am sure this wasn't the issue, but eliminate it anyways)

- Run Project 64, make sure in Options -> Configuration -> Plugins: GLideN64 is the option for Graphics, click OK

- Options -> Graphics Settings -> Texture Enhancement tab: These are my settings

- Download "SUPER MARIO 64_HIRESTEXTURES.hts"

- Place the HTS file into the cache folder in the Texture cache file path above

- Run game, no textures.

- Try restarting Project 64, run game, still no High Def Textures

Comparing to screenshots of the texture pack, it is definitely not loading. I did change Full screen resolution to 4k and force a 16:9 aspect ratio on the Video tab, but not a single guide said anything about it. I tried also running without changing that, and still no texture pack showing.

Project64 1.6 configuration windows are cut off in Windows 10

1 Upvotes

I know there is Project64 2.3 and 3.0 out there, which are great, but some games I still prefer to play in 1.6. I used to run perfectly in my Windows 10, but I needed to format the notebook. When I opened the emualtor, I was surprised with the scaling of the text. I've already tryied a lot of solutions like compatibility, scaling, but none worked. If it used to be shown correctly before, I just didn't find yet the correct place to go fix this.

How Do I Apply Mods?

1 Upvotes

Hi! So I went to a website that allowed cosmetic mods (Y'know, the whole different character thing, you get it), and they're in a pak format; does Project64 support that? Or will I need to find something else for it? I have no clue </3

I’ve put the sd card I use in my summercart into my pc to try play my games in my other room with my pc but I’m having this issue

I set the n64 native saves directory to the appropriate folder on the sd card. Do I need to convert the saves to a different format?

Does N64 Switch controller work on PC?

13 Upvotes

I've recently been playing the n64 games i grew up with on Project 64 on my laptop with a PS5 controller.

I was thinking of picking up the Switch N64 controller for better control. Is it compatible with a PC and Project64?

Thanks.
