Project 64 started close to 3 decades ago and has seen many changes and revisions over the years, friends have come and gone but we have all grown up together.
Of those revisions, it was decided to continue programming using the original 1.6 source, leading to Project64_Legacy.
Legacy means to not only allow games to run smoothly as we have seen in Project64 1.6.1 but to do so without hacks and various tricks that compromise stability.
Achievements include:
*Vulnerability found within Project64 1.6 through 1.7.2 is patched.
*Jabo Texture loading/creation corrected with exclusive Jabo Direct3D8_1.7.0.47a
*Dialogs in full-screen.
*Default Plugins with per-game settings (Video, Audio, RSP).
*Ique with full cheat support for known games.
*Online RDX support is accessed through rom browser...

This is an easy to use utility for performing some tasks on SNES / SFC ROMs!

Following functions are included:

Add header: adds an empty header
Remove header: removes an existing header
Edit ROM information like title, country/region and version
Fix checksum: fixes a broken checksum. You always should do this before saving, if possible. Please note that some beta or demo ROMs have an odd checksum anyway …
Fix ROM size: fixes wrong internal ROM size information (useful for some ROM hacks)
Expand ROM: expands ROM to a specific size up to 64 Mbit (BS-X up to 32 Mbit). Mirror option should only be used, when there are problems with standard expanding. Always check if your ROM still works after doing this!
Split ROM: splits ROM into multiple parts
SwapBin: swaps binaries to get a “Close-to-SNES-Mask-ROM”-layout (27C801)
Deinterleave: some copy stations like “Game Doctor SF” or “Super UFO” use interleaving when dumping HiROM games. This will reverse...

Released by PJ64LegacyTeam By kind permission of Jabo

Changes:

Hey everyone!

If you’ve been following the emulation scene lately, you probably already know that things have taken a turn for the worse. Nintendo’s recent legal actions have shut down some of the biggest names in Switch and 3DS emulation—Yuzu, Ryujinx, and Citra—along with their forks. While Nintendo claims this is a necessary move to combat piracy, the takedowns have left many gamers wondering:

Is emulation a threat to intellectual property, or is it the only way to preserve gaming history?

I just published an in-depth article that dives into this very question:

Nintendo vs. Emulation: Can Copyright and Game Preservation Coexist?

Created by Exzap (and aided by Peter Gov), it is the second Wii U emulator to be available to the public but the first to emulate commercial games. It can decrypt Wii U images that use the Wud format but also the RPS or RPL files. Internal resolution can be up to 1920 x 1080 depending on the game (and beyond with graphic packs). Currently, the DRC (GamePad), the Pro controller and the conventional controller are emulated. Wiimotes are also emulated (including native support). Keyboard inputs and USB controllers as input devices are also supported. The GamePad tactile input can be controlled with a left mouse click. The Gyro functionality is emulated with limitations and can be controlled via the right mouse button. This version is only compatible for Windows x64 (from Windows 7) with an OpenGL 4.1 (or higher) or Vulkan graphics card and it will be necessary to have 4 to 8 GB of RAM to make it work.

Gameboy Color emulator writes for Windows and Android.

It is an N64 emulator written in Rust by Logan McNaughton (single64) and some portions of which come from mupen64plus and/or ares.



The objectives in summary are:
– Performance. The author wants to be able to use this emulator on his laptop.
– Easy to use.
– Easy to work with. Dynamic recompilers perform well, but they are very difficult to read and understand. This emulator will only have interpreters for the CPU and RSP. In addition, it is written entirely in Rust (outside Parallel-RDP), a modern programming language whose number of users continues to grow. The author tried to avoid the use of macros, which can reduce the repetitiveness of the code, but also its readability.

The changes are:

The naming convention for save files changed in this version. This means that the emulator won’t find saves that previously existed. You'll need to go into the save file folder and rename your save file to the...
