Daedalus R10 Released -- PSP N64 Emulation!

Submitted by greg; April 01, 2007

Last Thursday StrmnNrmn left us on the edge of our computer chairs as we anxiously commenced the R10 count down. Now as StrmnNrmn continues his vast crusade through the virtual depths, the well progressing & highly anticipated Nintendo 64 emulator is ready for prime time! Without further ado... The one, the only, Daedalus R10! What's the diff?

[+] Added framerate limiting option.
[+] Added adjustable stick deadzone.
[+] Allow pause menu to be activated even when rom emulation has hung.
[!] Fix crash when no roms found, added explanatory message.
[!] Fix flickering when small number of roms found.
[^] Fix texture hash frequency check.
[^] Finally got code compiling with -O3 optimisation flag in GCC.
[^] Use VFPU for InvSqrt (thanks hlide!)
[^] Improved VFPU code for clipping and tnl (thanks Raphael!)
[^] Improved inlining of AddTri.
[^] Reduced time spent searching for overridden blend modes.
[~] Remove debug console in public release builds (smaller footprint and slight speedup.)

Mad props StrmnNrmn, job well done! Download: Daedalus R10 (for 1.50+ fw) Daedalus R10 (for 1.00 fw) Daedalus R10 Source - source: StrmnNrmn's blog

you claim to have a 3.11 downgrader and don't know what source code is..........

any ways, the source code is the code that is used to make the app/game possible, if your NOT a homebrew developer, or a developer period, you DO NOT need the source code, just download the files that will run on your PSP
1.00 - the one labled for 1.00
1.50 - the one labled for 1.50
any custom firmware - either will do nicely

# Bloodpool 2007-04-01 21:11

nice update...however im trying my supersmash right now and the screen goes blank for a few secs before the n64 logo appears.....i watch the intro to the game......press start.....the "press start" screen appears.......i press start.....the screen goes blank and stays there .....the game doesnt even boot to the character select screen....
i have no sound emulated. maybe other games will run...but supersmash doesnt seem to be running right......i kant wait for deadelus R20!!! lolz

# Satchmoe 2007-04-01 21:11

Thanks for this great emu man. I hope you realize even though there are some nay-sayers most of us appreciate what you do. Thanks for all the hard work.

# PSP DEVELOPER ON WEED 2007-04-01 21:11

IT DON'T PLAY ANY ROMS THAT I HAVE, AND TUROK FREEZES AND CRASHES PSP MARIO MIGHT WORK BUT I CAN'T FIND IT ON MY COMP. IT DEPENDS ON THE GAMES THAT YOU LIKE. SMASH BROS MIGHT WORK WELL BUT I CAN'T FIND IT EITHER. GOOD LUCK AND GOOD NIGHT

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:14

redownload them der!!!

# zack11190 2007-04-01 21:15

I can't get any of my ROMs to work. I choose my ROM from the main menu. It takes me to the ROM settings screen. I press Start and nothing happens. The screen goes black.

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:16

thats beacuse its not compatable what rom was it? KCK!!

# zack11190 2007-04-01 21:18

Earthworm Jim and Banjo-Kazooie. I'm going to try SSB in a few minutes.

# zack11190 2007-04-01 21:20

SSB works, but there's no sound and it freezes once you get to the main menu.

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:22

what about super mario? probly the new update only upd the spped but u cant play the games that u couldent on r9 so w/e u played on r9 will work on r10 but 10% faster?

# tim 2007-04-01 21:23

thats how much it worked in R9 ;)

# tim 2007-04-01 21:24

where is the frameskip option :S

# Matt/Da_kr3w911 2007-04-01 21:24

amazing improvement overall, i dont care about sound so that makes the rom run quite a bit better, just being able to make a working emu for n64 on psp is pretty awsome work, F- what everyone says your doing a great job. i just want mario 64 to work without sound. cant wait for R11. Peace man.

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:26

so it only runs better with no sound?

# cisco21c 2007-04-01 21:27

interesting. will test out.

# tim 2007-04-01 21:28

dont be a noob. it runs better overall but best without sound

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:29

my bad sorry

# starter15 2007-04-01 21:29

i just think its quite amazing that youve been able to accomplish what you have thus far. great work man.

# tim 2007-04-01 21:30

where is the frameskip option

# zack11190 2007-04-01 21:32

Conker, Banjo-Tooie, and Goldeneye do not work. Does anyone have a list of games that do work?

# KoopaTroopaZ 2007-04-01 21:33

Man Mario 64 ALMOST full speed...sweet stuff ...On his blog he posts about possible R11 Ideas...Man you are a trooper ^_^

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:34

sweet it almost runs at full speed? is that with or without adio?

# tim 2007-04-01 21:35

as with last release, the games that do work dont really matter. becuase i only found mario and mario kart playable. megaman 64 was decent. slow and gfx errors but i played it for a good amount of time,. i'm not gonna go through my 60+ roms again this time xD

i just wanna know where the frameskip option is please

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:37

lol hell probly delete this 1 off and put up the 1 with frame skip lol

# tim 2007-04-01 21:40

well the readme says it has it. but i cant find it. the R9 hack with frame skip had it with the other options. maybe he hid it or i am completely blind but i cant find it =\

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:42

well i havent used it yet i am waiting for my dad to stop playing the psp

# yourgrandma 2007-04-01 21:44

when selecting what game you want to play you can push the L R buttons to switch between menus

# Moditripit 2007-04-01 21:44

I'm playing Super Mario 64 w/ sound and frameskip at 2, it looks a little choppy, but its going at just about full speed around the castle, in the castle and a little slower in the first level, but it is great! keep up the good work!!

# grim 2007-04-01 21:50

Wow this is even more impressive than r9 , good job, the speed is definatley getting to where i want it. Im betting one more update and I'll be all set, My only gripe, does conker bad fur day work with this emu yet?

# zachary 2007-04-01 21:53

u should try it and find out dude

# Moditripit 2007-04-01 21:59

I tried it with and without expansion pack requirement and it did not load. Maybe next time, or way down the line, that game is BEEFY

# Vandel 2007-04-01 22:04

thank you so much

# rheu 2007-04-01 22:05

is this even good?

i didnt even like r9

# Keero 2007-04-01 22:09

this emulator will never be really ready and playable till the 20th release. Then...maybe it shall be powerful.

I appreciate what you guys are doing. Keep at it, it will be awsome.

# blah 2007-04-01 22:10

shit super smash bros dont work

# Richard C. Mongler 2007-04-01 22:11

It is exactly like R9.
Nothing different. Except usless features.

# zachary 2007-04-01 22:13

that sux

# felix 2007-04-01 22:16

from the looks of it, it's improving, im not gona play it thouigh, i'll try when it is a bit better with save state. good job strmnnrmn

# Kadnassio 2007-04-01 22:37

Way to go Strmnnrmn. Guys, those "useless" updates you're talking about are significant to the emulator's functionality. You want a good emulator? It's going to take time. Think of it like this. You go to the refrigerator to get a drink. Now think of every step that it takes to get that drink. I mean everything, from walking left foot, right foot, raising your arm, gripping the refrigerator handle, etc. That is how Strmnnrmn must code this bad boy emulator. Show some respect.

# Mr Saibot 2007-04-01 22:44

Nice... I wonder if killer instinct & resi 2 work yet

# yourgrandma 2007-04-01 22:51

good stuff like the new features

# RAVENMASTA 2007-04-01 22:58

maybe he should gather a team, more things would get done faster...its hard for 1 man

# Richard C. Mongler 2007-04-01 23:11

What drink would me be getting?

# Ion 2007-04-01 23:38

HALLELUJAH!!!!! !

# 89 2007-04-01 23:51

hey, rome was not build in a day, great work.
its funny because i thougth i had big expectations, i never tried this emu but when i did
i was suprised to find it working quit well,comre on people its the strongest emu out there even more so then the psone, once again thank you you are a samurai in the homebrew would

# Sid3arm 2007-04-01 23:54

Great work.. but i still like the N46 emu for trhe PC .. the one you have to pay for it runs 1000000% great

# Sticky 2007-04-01 23:55

ssb still doesn't work... :(

# HeavyD 2007-04-02 00:12

whoa you have a emulator you have to pay for i know one the runs perfect on all n64 games for free

# Will 2007-04-02 00:17

Ok chill, You can stop being an asshole now.

# dr_loko 2007-04-02 00:21

umm well first of all my psp cant run this emulator I dont know why. im running on 3.10OE and when I put the two folders that come in the .rar in E:PSP/GAMES and I try to run it but when it loads it says THE GAME CAN NOT BE STARTED.(8002014C) any body help plz

# Ion 2007-04-02 00:27

Is it set to 1.5 kernel?

# Mr Saibot 2007-04-02 00:48

Pay... for an emulator?! Sounds like some1's ripping you off!

# erutandog 2007-04-02 01:10

what is the source for
there
1.00
1.50
and source?????

# ricardo 2007-04-02 01:20

horrible still slow enough to make me sick w/o sound

# an0nymous 2007-04-02 01:20

hi there, i have installed and it works fine but i want try to load up zelda rom. can it be done ? thanks guys keep up the great work BTW !

# SWATsqad 2007-04-02 01:24

real crap i would say.. the sound on most roms... "omg"

# Fiction 2007-04-02 01:25

if you're running oe you have to put it in the E:PSP/GAME150 folder. It'll run from there.

# The Matster 2007-04-02 01:41

the hard work that is being put into this will definitely pay off. Im impressed it has got as far as it has a n64 emu on psp its still mind boggling having said that its not worth testing untill at least one game runs glitch free. Even with a fast cpu there was never a proper emulator released. Just hope that nintendo releases more awesome 64 games on the wii

# Loki 2007-04-02 02:15

I just want to say thanx

Alsoo i f any game/games need to work it's Perfect Dark and rougue sqaudren

# zazzafrazz 2007-04-02 02:46

hey mongoloid, don't bite the hand that feeds dipshit

# Calhau 2007-04-02 05:33

Great almost perfect

but great job keep going

# rom dude 2007-04-02 05:55

mario 64 works at a playable level though can lag still but zelda ocarina of time is unplayable. its too slow. good work anyways. its getting there.

# rom dude 2007-04-02 05:57

this works well on mario 64. zelda is still too slow but its getting there. good work!

# 4darkness 2007-04-02 06:35

thanks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!good job!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! !!!!

# Arius 2007-04-02 07:07

i havent tryed the emu yet tho i will later today , all i hope for is that he has cleaned up the menu and options and sorted all those horrible crashes when opening 99% of the roms avalible.

i hate these monthly realeases ,every 6 months would be way better and he should get a team involved in helping him with all aspects of the emulation and testing ... i have emailed him offering help but no reply so far.apart from that all i can say is good work ! and thats without looking at the emulation.

# 4darkness 2007-04-02 07:10

the only game works great is super mario 64.........:-(

# Sithed Ractyr 2007-04-02 07:59

Cuz it's feckin 8mbit and anything higher than that is STILL crap. But good job Strmrmranarnmnr mnremrnrmrnmr

# matz 2007-04-02 07:59

Goldeneye work anyone?

# DickDastardly 2007-04-02 08:48

golden shower releaser

# WizardEyes 2007-04-02 09:08

yeah even if we get to an R20 i still dont think it will be even close to perfect. i just think the psp will never be able to handle n64 game at a playable speed where your not cuzzing the thing out cuz it runs so slow but hey fantastic work none the less and i hope someday he proves me wrong

# devin 2007-04-02 09:17

mario 64 doesnt even work that well either :/ hopefully he'll fix it later in R11

# zachary 2007-04-02 09:37

mario 64 runs perfect now great job :)

# tp5com 2007-04-02 12:49

Man, If Its Not Gonna Happen, Its Not Gonna Happen. This thing wont ever be near 100% playable. Sorry. I know these guys are tryin their hardest, but come on already. Cant someone just make a 100% playable SNES emulator. 15-20 frames with no sound...WOWWWEEEEEE. just play it on ur comp. Besides, there aren near enought buttons on the psp for an N64 controller

# PSP Happyland 2007-04-02 12:49

You gotta love old school. Keep up your efforts on this one StrmnNrmn. Lookin' forward to the day that this runs bug free.

# yourgrandma 2007-04-02 12:54

consideration that your only using half the n64 controller at a time i do believe that there is enough buttons

# jay 2007-04-02 13:03

we need something that will convert z64 files to v64 files.

# drmadcow 2007-04-02 13:17

you really don't have any idea on how to program anything for the PSP do you? If you even looked at the early version of any psp emulator they weren't perfect. It takes time and effort and saying it won't ever be 100% your just talking out your ass. Did you see how slow the GBA emulators were when they first came out compared to now? It just takes time and saying crap like what you've said is just ignorant and stupid.

# A 2007-04-02 13:25

do you download 1.00 or 1.50 for version 3.10 OE

# jay 2007-04-02 13:52

1.50 then put it in GAME150

# ANGRY AGAIN 2007-04-02 15:11

# MaX_SLayeR 2007-04-02 15:40

You guys gotta stop talkin mess. Coding an emulator takes time. Hes basically going step by step making it better each time. Its either you get small updates every now and then or you wait 2 years till its completely done. Oh, Great job strmnnrmn

# Les 2007-04-02 15:41

Yea doode Daedalus has been doing a damn fine job indeed gettin n64 games to run on a hand held so don't fuckin criticise him if u can't do better.

# Mez 2007-04-02 19:42

wrong, either 1.00 or 1.50 EBOOT can be used in custom firmware, 1.00 eboot is best to use because it never shows a currupt icon, and if you ever decide to delete it while in the xmb, it deletes the whole thing (not just one of the 2 folders)

# Mez 2007-04-02 19:43

either, 1.00 is the better choice though

# Mez 2007-04-02 19:44

either 1.00 or 1.50 eboot can be used in custom firmware, 1.00 EBOOT is the better choice

# Mez 2007-04-02 19:46

if you dont know what the source is, you dont need it

# Dj Dumbi 2007-04-02 20:29

You don't need the source code, its' there for fiddling around or that REAL proof that it's hard coded with fixes or speedups and all other goodies.

# someguy 2007-04-02 20:36

yo nice job keep workin FUCK everybody else

# Dj Dumbi 2007-04-02 20:37

What's useless is your comments you've been posting. R10 ain't the end man, there will be future updates and continuing updates anyways so hold your horses dammit.

# Dj Dumbi 2007-04-02 20:42

try it out yourself .. want to find the rom? google for emuparidise.org or .net or something.

# Dj Dumbi 2007-04-02 20:43

# Download 1.5 Eboot Why? 2007-04-03 01:00

3,530 downloads of the 1.50 EBOOT version
385 downloads of the 1.00 EBOOT version

this makes no since to me. i would guess around 90% of us use custom firmware, so why download the version 1.5 eboot??

# Fernando 2007-04-03 04:33

Good Job man, i wonder if you try to use N64 bios on your next version, maybe the bios of N64 make everthing easy to everyone.

# DUDeSTER 2007-04-03 06:23

i was wonderin, do you need to downgrade from a custom firmwire to upgrade it? or is the custom firmire like devhook?

# Arius 2007-04-03 07:05

please understand this (to all of you)
look at gba emulation , near perfect !
gba roms are in some cases bigger than n64
and they can run ,also cps2 has very large roms
and using the rom cache function alllows them
to play full speed.

so roms are not a problem ,the problem is
deadalus on pc is too heavy for todays pc's let alone psp ... so its a bad idea from the start , pj64 can run much better on very low spec pc's
but this pj64 is still a very complicated emulator
so i think to have around 60% n64 roms running near perfect is a sure thing but only with pj64 and
it would have to coded by the original pj64 developer.

so give up the constant moan about n64 on psp
and only keep eyes peeled if you are truly interested in emulation or n64 emulation as this emu will never in my opinion go anywhere fast.

# Roblord 2007-04-03 08:01

It is the first time I ever tried this N64 Emulator and I must admit, I got really excited when I saw the Mario 64 logo on my PSP. I almost shed a tear...
Great work! Don't give up.
Waiting for teh next release.... :)

# Peetstaman 2007-04-03 22:05

people stop saying waiting for next release... damn! lol StrmnNrmn is not a machine! damn fine work this time frameskip makes for smoother gameplay and the adjustable deadzone settings are awesome because my analog stick is fucked up

I don't think people fully appreciate this emulator, it gets much much better every time and the other emu doesn't even come close. I have to say R11 owns Mario 64 and I am not gonna ask for anything more.

Awesome job StrmnNrmn

# Peetstaman 2007-04-03 22:08

that is... *R10 owns mario 64*

# Paolo 2007-04-04 05:04

yo can i save in this? because every time i play mario 64 i gota start from the beginning thats kinda gay...

# 4darkness 2007-04-04 13:21

the only game is working good is super mario 64 with no sound.......anybody knows another game is working good ??????????

and i dont know why people are complaining dont download it if its not good enough for u

# CrapAttack 2007-04-06 02:33

Not a huge speed boost, 15% is accurate.I was hopeing for around 30% speed increase. 30% would probably allow mario 64 to run smoothly with the sound on. That would keep a handfull of us busy till the next release.All and all its what i expected in the new release. Arius is right , deadalus is to much for the psp to handle.
However I have to give credit were credits due.This is a very hard task, setting out to get this emulator to run smoothly. Deadalus is a demanding emulator and the fact that you've managed to get it this far is amazing. Its going to take a very long time to get this thing running at 100%.
I've been farting around with the emulators settings and i find it runs best without sound.

# larry65 2007-04-06 02:44

I Agree .I was hopeing for a little bit more speed.R11 heres hopeing..BTW Great job on R10

# hons 2007-04-11 22:10

YOU ARE GOD.

We are all so in debt for your ongoing work on this emulator!

Ignore the haters, we all appreciate you!

KEEP ON GOING MAN!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!

# Anima 2007-05-01 10:18

Hes doin an awesome job! But I'll be patient.. till he reaches the right FPS and lets me play Zelda like its meant to be played!
