N64 emulator and roms by Samuel at 5:55 PM EST on March 22, 2006
I just recently downloaded the project64 1.6 version emulator, but I can't find a Gauntlet Legends rom. Is this the best N64 emulator out there? I use Windows XP and the speed of my processor is 1800. I have a Creative Sound Blaster X-FI Platinum sound card and Ge Force FX 5500 (256 MB DDR) video card. I hope this is good enough for playing and ripping. Where do you people get you N64 roms? I have trouble finding them.
I prefer Project 64. It's not hard to find N64 ROMs. Type something like "N64 roms gauntlet legends" into google and you should find something usable in the first three results. I started ripping on a 400MHz Celeron with 64 MB RAM, your machine will be able to handle it. It'll probably be able to play most without trouble, as well.
The emulator and rom work, but the sound gets high-pitched (pops and screams). Anyway I can fix that? Also some of the graphics are dark and jagged. Btw, I got the rom from coolrom.com http://www.coolrom.com/roms/n64/g/
Well the pops and clicks...you cant help much about that, you can reduce them a little by using Azimers plugin with a big buffer.
As for the graphics, i dunno why it looks like that. It looks looks fine on Jabo's 1.6 plugin, except with the flickering. Try using another one like Rice's and see if that helps.
Unknownfile, you're always lazy... I was gonna pay you if you would do the complete Gauntlet Legends soundtrack and sound effects, but no... >:( Thanks, Josh. I'll try that.
In case you haven't heard, Gauntlet Legends has been a pain in the ass for everyone has tried it, and I don't even want to go there. And who really cares about sound effects, anyways...
I'm not really worried about the sound effects. I just thought it would be a nice addition... Yes, I've seen how Gauntlet Legends has caused many people problems, trying to rip it. I thought you could figure it out, but I guess not... I'm going to rip it my way, like I've always done. I rip it from the original N64 and game, to my computer. I'm sure you know how to do that... The only bad thing is that I have to go through the game and record the music from each stage. All I have to do is turn the sound effects off from the options menu, so it won't interfere with the music itself. When I'm ready, I bring up the software I use, set the input levels, then record each stage seperately. When I finish, I go back to the WAV files I created, crop and fade them, then burn them to a CD. I've did this for years, it's no big deal. It just takes time. I was hoping you guys could rip Gauntlet Legends, the way you did the other games you've listed here; it would make it a lot easier, plus it would be available for other people that visit your site. Oh well, I'll do it my way. Thanks anyway.
Good idea. Personally, that is what I do. I will record the music myself and then switch over to USF if/when the set is released. No big deal. (Excluding the fact that MP3s are usually bigger than USFs.)
