FAQ:

Q: What does Range Fog and Linear Fog mean?                             *
*    A: Range Fog is the default fog method and usually correct method       *
*    fog. Linear Fog refers to depth based fog on a linear filter. It is     *
*    less costly, but requires the Software Vertex Clipper, which itself     *
*    uses more resources than the old hardware method. Linear Fog can        *
*    create a more visually appealing thickness of fog, but some less        *
*    desirable artifacts may appear. Rice 6.12 only.                         *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: Software Vertex Clipper, what?                                       *
*    A: The Software Vertex Clipper uses code that also relies on DirectX    *
*    features unsupported by XBOX. You can witness the missing side          *
*    textures on treasure chests in Legend of Zelda. The rest of the         *
*    functionality is enough to work, and it also corrects some bad          *
*    vertex clipping seen in Conker's BFD in the level "Enter the Vertex."   *
*    You can enable the Software Vertex Clipper by selecting "Software       *
*    Vertex Processing" in Video Settings. Rice 6.12 only.                   *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: 1964 1.1 and PJ64 1.6 support cheats, what gives?                    *
*    A: I never implemented a menu scheme to modify and activate cheats.     *
*    In the meantime, PJ64 1.6 can load "permanent cheats" that correct      *
*    some big issues. (i.e. Zelda SubScreen Delay Fix, and Pokemon Snap)     *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: I am experiencing graphics glitches in X game.                       *
*    A: That's not really helpful. 😕 The most common graphics issues        *
*    result from Rice Video's lack of [Hardware] Framebuffer Emulation.      *
*    Garbled textures, missing effects, bad vertex clipping, and black/      *
*    missing textures can be a result of a plugin incompatibility rather     *
*    than a port incompatibility. Check your PC for compatibility with       *
*    the closest Rice Video plugin to determine if the bug is in fact a      *
*    regression or something that can be fixed. Next, you can do some        *
*    research to find out what type of bug you are encountering and if it    *
*    can be fixed. Emutalk.net forums and BigHead's compaitibility list      *
*    are helpful here. Gonetz' GLideN64 dev blog has great explanations      *
*    for N64 HLE graphics problems here: http://gliden64.blogspot.com/       *
*    After that, report the game, tell me exactly whats wrong, what          *
*    emulator and plugins you're using, include a screenshot, and I might    *
*    look into fixing it. Otherwise... Don't bother! 😛                      *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: I am experiencing a crash after X in Y game.                         *
*    A: Make sure you are giving the emulator enough RAM, and try setting    *
*    Texture Memory to AUTO. Some games handle the auto texture memory       *
*    trick better than others. If crashes persist, report the game,          *
*    emulator & plugins, how to reproduce the crash, and any combination     *
*    of plugins that worked in the past.                                     *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: PJ64 1.6 doesn't play opening animations all of the time. Why?       *
*    A: There are some changes to PJ64 where previous optimizations don't    *
*    work as gracefully. The result is that some opening animations get      *
*    skipped at the cost of good emulation speed.                            *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: Turok Dinosaur Hunter doesn't work or crashes on me. Why?            *
*    A: PJ64 1.6 won't boot it due to optimization issues. 1964 1.1 will     *
*    only boot it with audioMusyX. Both emulators will eventually crash,     *
*    either randomly, or after the first key is recovered. Mupen64 would     *
*    be needed to play this game fully.                                      *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: Players 2 and 4 are unplayable in Conker's BFD deathmatch.           *
*    A: Sorry. Again, this is a core issue.                                  *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: Can I tweak the speed of a game?                                     *
*    A: Yes. Adjust the Counter Factor value in the emulator's .ini or       *
*    .rdb. A lower CF value emulates closer to a real N64, while a higher    *
*    CF value will create a better experience on old hardware like the       *
*    Xbox. Generally, adjusting CF will do a better job than Frameskip.      *
*                                                                            *
*    Q: Load/Save States as well as the In Game Menu cause me crashes.       *
*    A: Yes, these bugs have been around since Surreal64 1.0. They are a     *
*    result of the emulator and plugins running natively with the lower      *
*    level xbox functionality written into various parts of Surreal64.       *
*    Most emulators for the Xbox include a simple App that the emulator      *
*    is built ontop of.with Surreal64, when a problem occurs, the            *
*    interface becomes inaccessible.
