How do I use texture packs

[smbergie200]

OK - downloaded RiceVideo Plugin. I have googled and checked out these forums and I still have no clue how to make texture packs work. I am using the most current Rice Video Plugin and 1.7 beta. Also is rice video plugin the best for texture packs? I noticed there were other plugins that support texture packs. Please help. I want to see Mario 64 in all its high res glory. ;)

No. Glide64 is the best for Rice format texture packs.

Jabo's plugin also rules (since it has native DXT compression, for small texture packs), but you need to donate for that.

[rswedlow]

It vaguely matters really. If you want to load some Super Mario 64 retextures RiceVideo texture paks for this game are compatible with Glide64. If your system supports Glide64 with the default wrapper you could benefit from an extra glitch or two fixed, but it's usually slower and less compatible with older systems.

[Rice's Video Plugin 6.1.0, the hasty beta 6.1.1.10, and the (official) 6.1.4 plugin are all the "latest" versions in my book. Personally I prefer the first, but it just doesn't matter.]

For Rice's plugin get to the plugin configuration dialoge through the emulator and load installed retextures through the Texture Enhancement tab settings.

you can pretty much find texture packs on YouTube, theres pokemon, NES Mario, Paper Mario, Zelda, Luigi's Mansion, you name it! but getting a good one might cost you a download if you are not careful!

I think you should know that there is another Star Fox hires remake coming!

[rswedlow]

I will keep that in mind. :) Please do tell if I am missing out on something...it would be a waste of an effort to perfection.

I will keep track of EmuTalk every day for as long as I know. There is HomebrewHeaven, but the retexturing forum there is private: And so I automatically presume they choose to host artwork there for a reason.

[ReplayTy13]

Well, you are talking to the hires Star Fox designer...I suck at designing, so I made it a community project

Well as of the past few weeks very many much more retexture projects have started...this is probably due to the following:

RiceVideo and N64GFX have been around for texturing since 2004.
There are now 5 video plugins that will dump textures from TMEM.
Rice's Video Plugin was discontinued for a couple years, most of today's retextures were between that period and that in which mudlord picked it up, and now mudlord's increments to the plugin support have stopped since some months.
Project64 is also popular for its unique approach to retexturing.
EmuTalk is not dead exactly, and the vBulletin registration was in 2001 I suppose.
Someone has finally started a Turok 2 retexture that can be downloaded, and it looks to me better than the one that was left. Also check out what RaulUchiha did to Super Mario 64 [and SSB]; just because a game is popular with retexture projects doesn't mean some things aren't getting better. I've listed 100 links to projects, and now I'm going to STFU this thread to death as I quietly monitor the ET retexture forum every day.

[gitech001]

Hi Icono, LTNS!

Nice list! Looks like you spent hours on it. Just like me, no reguard for time till it's perfect! ;)

How've you been?

TTYL,
Jay

[rswedlow]

hi gitech

I am very inspired now in the present areas of research. There will, has been times of forced isolation, but for those select hearts I can never forget to maintain this list. Of course I would also have to remember the work you have gone through.

Ricevideo is alive again, Aristotle has taken up the source

[rswedlow]

Arrgh there's some positives to that really. It'd be nice if someone who knows what Rice did to buggy up the latest beta 10 of 6.1.1 in some special cases had the knowledge to undo that, everyone only cares about the latest version lately, which is getting worse and worse

"Try Glide64 napalm R1.1 instead.
It has all the features Rice has and will be the future because Rice seems to be finally dead! And you only have one folder to edit!"
The drunk's starting to get to a lot of people though, not just me lately

[gitech001]

Hi guys,

Sorry I have been inactive for a while.

Thanks Icono! ;)

What's new?

Are you going to Alpha test?

Have you seen the work Aristotle is doing with Rice Video?

Later,
Jay

PS: I wonder if you could come back to emutalk. I would really like to see you there. Let me know. I can talk to the mods for you if you need me too. ;)

[rswedlow]

I am currently an alpha tester; development seems to be progressing nicely forgetting about time matters and expected problems in alpha development.

The RSP plugin is especially worth checking out. The only things left seem to be pausing error messages concerning vectors of memory (which you press Enter they're gone like they never happened) and its inability to boot some particular games in LLE. Other than that it appears perfect.

If there is a way to be back on EmuTalk I will see how I can help Aristotle's continuous efforts. It's been 2 years since the last defense of me.

[gitech001]

I would like to see you back at emutalk and your help with ARV would be very helpfull.

Have you tried to sign up again?

Thanks and TTYL,
Jay

[rswedlow]

Have I tried to sign up again, I've thought about it, I certainly wouldn't create a new hotmail account when I already have one, but I was banned--we see--so the best way is if one of the moderators thought it reasonable ...

I actually told my feelings to Knuckles, slight chance he never read it, or maybe he just really despaired still. Makes sense after seeing "THE END." for the reason I was banned :D so yea sorry about that at least, but to be honest with you,

I'm not sure it will matter in the long run. I have a feeling Aristotle's potential guides him to be capable without my betatesting.

[gitech001]

Ok, thanks for updating me. :cool:

(Maybe I will have a surprize for you ;) )

Later,
Jay
