Daedalus R11 (N64 Emulator) Released

greg | May 6, 2007

StrmnNrmn comes storming through after much anticipation for Daedalus R11 — the Nintendo 64 emulator for the PSP. StrmnNrmn has devoted a significant amount of time and effort into Daedalus, and it certainly shows…

The R11 change list:

  • [*] Large overhaul of rom settings and preferences. All settings should now be persistant.
  • [+] Native support for palettised textures for faster rendering and less memory usage.
  • [+] Provided a fixed size pool for all texture memory, to limit memory usage.
  • [+] Expansion Pak enabled by default.
  • [!] Updated rom info database to include save mechanism for many roms.
  • [!] Fix memory leak in texture cache.
  • [!] Fixed conversion of RGBA/32bpp textures with odd alignments.
  • [!] Fix crash which occurred when recolouring textures in low memory situations.
  • [^] Large rewrite of texture cache to reduce memory usage and improve performance.
  • [^] Various optimisations to the way textures are looked up in the cache and installed.
  • [^] Optimise offsetting/scaling of texture coordinates.
  • [^] Improve performance of dynarec fragment cache and reduce memory fragmentation.

Download:
Daedalus R11 for 1.00 Firmware

try coolroms.com :) there all legal (ish) as they dont host roms that are still under “somethig or other” protection, so no downloading mario64 (cough torrent) but they do have many many others :)

I have to admit, I haven’t tried this emulator yet, I’ve been hearing it’s still a bit slow. With all these releases though I think I’ll download it and judge for myself.

Regardless of speed, it’s far beyond something I could make, so I can’t complain really ;).

This was the same type of incrimental progress that was seen on GBA emulation …. months and months of 1 to 5 percent increases in speed and whatnot … I’m really glad to see that there is still work and interest on this project, but it’s really not going to come together till more than one emu developer gets involved in the project (just like with GBA) and brings a bit of info / experience to the table that ROCKETS the progress forward too 90 to 100 percet perfection.

Comment by grey_max
2007-05-06 18:46:57

Guess you don’t know who StrmnNrmn really is. Hes the guy that made the PC N64 emulator that so many of are current N64 emulators are based off of(Many still use his same core). So basically, there is no one who knows more who can storm onto the scene. But it would be nice to see StrmnNrmn port this core back to the PC so PC users could have one huge final update to daedalus.

Comment by FrankieViturello
2007-05-06 21:03:31

Just because StrmnNrmn is the person responsible for the PC N64 emu doesn’t mean that he needs to work on this project alone. Researchers often work in TEAMS, I think it’s always beneficial to have a second set of eyes on things like this. In any case. I don’t really see the point in alerting us all to updates with only 10% increase in speed when that doesn’t make the one game that’s currently playable any MORE playable than it already is.

Cheers. Either not SM 64 is a little slicker, but not with audio… Audio is stuttery.

I’m sure tweaking settings for each game will help, but unless my roms are broken, there isn’t much change from earlier versions.

I’m still running down the list of roms to try.

LMAO, you’re an arrogant dipshit Miles, and ignorant to boot. You have no idea what you’re talking about, if you don’t like it, why don’t you just fuck off. “Thanks for another let down?” Are you paying him for his work? No? Then shut the fuck up.

Its not worthy of payment, or release. why not just wait to release a completely working version?proof of concepts are great, then you release a working model, not 10 more proof of concepts.

U r an ungrateful person , where is the thanks u for trying strmm but it isnt what I expected , but ur mos def improving on this emu!
Keep at at man u will eventually get it !

No u prefer just sitting on ur behind and lemme shoot down any 1 that make the home brew scene what it is now , why r u on this site any way ask urself?

iT’S BECUZ MANY CODERS AND HOMEBREWERS MADE THIS PSP HACKING SCENE ALL POSSIBLE HAVE U DONATED TO ANY 1 OF THEM LATELY SINCE UR OBVIOUSLY PLEASED WITH SOME 1′S WORK BY NOW IF UR HERE STILL!!!!

It’s like yall r just waiting for good ppl that try hard everyday to fail so yall can spit on them , is that the kind of person u are?

U r that type of person that seems the thrive on attacking a honorable person when they r on the ground , u give out the aura of a low life punk that would frown at an ederly woman and kick her walking stick from her hand!

SHAME ON U MAN UR JUST WRONG IN THE WAY U SPAM HERE N JUST BE NEGATIVE TO SOME 1 THATS HELPING US ALL …………FREEEEE OF CHARGE !

Y R U LIKE THAT ?????

Any way Strmm I havent tried this yet but i did the last 1 and yes it was not at the best possible emulation as yet but most of us myself included, do appreciate what u have accomplished so far , and thank you and plzzzzz continue to do ur tireless work!!

ODV out!

Thanks StrmnNrmn for another great update of the N64! :)

However, I have to admit that the emulator still doesn’t support a lot of games. The sound is also crappy and not to talk about the speed increasements (except mario games), what is even going slower than my grandmother.

Beside of all that, still great work ;)

Super Mario 64 is definitely faster in certain areas :)
This is the only emulator that I actually get excited waiting for :D So keep up the good work - N64 games look fantastic on the PSP screen :)

ok i skipped R10
so comparing to R9:
there’s improvement for sure. it’s REALLY smooth outside the castle and in the castle but once i get in bomb-omb island it gets a lil laggy and all this is WITHOUT audio.
i just got the first star on bomb-omb island well the sixth one.
with audio, it’s still slow
thanks for R11.

Thanks! this rules! and it seems people don’t notice your frame skip option. Putting that on 2-3 gives my 100% full speed on super mario

Comment by Miles
2007-05-07 15:22:40

hmm a frameskip option that makes the speed seem smooth, sounds like that should have already been switched on by the author prior to release…
