Many of the most old-school of gamers still pride themselves on playing all the classics on the original hardware and look down on emulation. Many other Nintendo fans may be loading up their Wiis with plenty of excellent N64 games on the Virtual Console. However, if you are looking for something to breath a bit of fresh air into your favorite N64 games, you may want to look into some neat little hacks you can do with an N64 emulator and some select plugins and texture packs.

What Can These Tweaks Do?

Even though it was 64-bit, the N64 was still in that era where 3D processing was at its infancy and the graphics weren’t quite as smooth as we might like. In fact, the 32-bit Playstation had a number of later games that gave the best of the N64 a run for its money in terms of graphics. However, with some emulation tweaks, we can give some of your favorite N64 classics a significant boost to help transition them into the modern era.

While I wasn’t as impressed with most of these as much as I was with the PS1 emulation enhancements we covered a while back, there are some very interesting examples of a high-gloss finish added to some of the best of the N64 library.

Basic Image Enhancement Plugins

Without doing anything too terribly complicated, you can make most any N64 game look significantly better by using Project64 with a plugin, typically the Rice Video Plugin (find others on list of plugins here). These improvements are usually made by enhancing the 3D model textures and using anti-aliasing techniques to smoothen the rough edges of the polygons. Here are some great examples of enhanced screenshots (click to enlarge)

Custom Texture Packs

One of the coolest tricks in N64 emulation is re-texturing. With this technique, the original graphics of the game are taken out, redone using high resolution textures or a different graphic style (such as Cell Shading), and then reinserted for playback on the PC. These texture packs consist of zipped files that you download and use in combination with a copy of the original game ROM and specific emulators. (See this guide for a detailed example)

The only disadvantage to this technique is that there is a lot of time and effort that goes into these texture packs. Dedicated members of the N64 emulation community pour their creativity and skill into these creations and is is no small task to adequately take care of one game, let alone the entire N64 library. Because of this, not every N64 game is going to have high-resolution texture packs available. Although, you are free to join in on the initiative yourself.

Below are some of my favorite examples of texture packs (click to enlarge screens), but there are more available. If you have a favorite that isn’t mentioned, feel free to drop some links in the comments section below.

Play Goldeneye and other N64 games on the Mac with 100% compatibility - Mupen64plus

After trying out all the so called top n64 emulators for the mac, (sixtyforce) I was never able to play Goldeneye with 100% compatibility like I could do on Windows with Project64. That is until now. When I discovered Mupen64plus I was surprised to know that Goldeneye emulated flawlessly along with many other games. Some games that I could never get to work on PJ64 on windows ran on Mupen64plus without a problem.

1. Download the latest mupen64plus bundle for the mac at http://code.google.com/p/mupen64plus/downloads/list The link that reads mupen64plus-bundle-osx-X.XX.X.zip is the one.

2. Extract the files into your Applications folder or elsewhere. There are two folders , if you are using a 64bit version of OSX (Snow Leopard) double click on x86_64 if not double click on the x86_32 folder.

3. Drag your game roms into this folder.

Using Terminal to Navigate to the Folder

4. Use terminal and cd to the folder you were working in.

5. Type ./run_glide.sh nameofrom.z64 (you must be in the x86_64 or 32 folder we were working in). The emulator will start. You can also use the arach and rice plugins by typing ./run_rice.sh or ./run_arach instead of ./run_glide. Switch plugins if you are seeing emulation problems with a game. Some games work better with different plugins.

6. Game should start running. Controls below

I think there was a front end somewhere... but really we should all learn to use the terminal
