Download glN64 v0.4: Binary (92K), Source (147K)

• Fixed a stupid bug that was causing crashes in several F3DEX games

• Changed some build options that may increase speed a bit

Download glNintendo64() v0.3.1: Binary (65K), Source (114K)

• First open source release
• Rewrote combiner (twice)
• New combiner translates N64 combine modes into native combiner
• Now has two combiner recompilers to choose from; GeForce and OpenGL 1.4
• No longer adjusts texture coords for filtered TexRects when clamping is enabled
• Enables and disables texture stages based on combiner (more reliable method)
• Now only enables alpha testing for threshold mode, not dithered
• Added fullscreen support
• Added support for second texture
• Added support for F3DEX2 ForceMatrix
• Added support for changing light color with MoveWord in F3DEX2
• Added support for texture coordinate shifts
• Added support for S2DEX BG_Copy command
• Added support for fog (still a tad buggy)
• Added partial support for ModifyVtx (only vertex color and texture coordinates so far)
• Added very hacked and partial support for dithered alpha testing (Mario 64 dissolve effect)
• Added more error checking in LoadTile and LoadBlock (fixes freezing in Zelda 64)
• Added partial support for noise in combiner (won't work in all cases yet)
• Added 2xSaI texture filtering
• Added partial support for forced blender modes
• Fixed stupid palette selection bug (fixes most of the bad textures in many games)
• Fixed a bug that caused the wrong tile to be used on some textured rectangles
• Fixed a bug that caused the color buffer to be cleared along with the depth buffer
• Fixed a bug that disabled all lights if one had an invalid direction
• Changed the way the window is sized in windowed mode (doesn't clip off parts anymore)
• Improved TexRect texture coordinate generation (again)
• Improved texture size computation, should be nearly always correct now
• Improved CRC checking in texture cache, it's much more accurate (and effective) now
• Removed limit on number of textures that can be cached - is now only limited by actual size
• Improved OpenGL state management (slight speed improvement)
• Improved display list culling
• Many other fixes, tweaks, and additions that I've forgotten about over the months...

Download glNintendo64() v0.3: Binary (65K), Source (95K)

• Added some error checking to LoadTile and LoadBlock commands (doesn't crash as much anymore)
• Fixed a matrix bug in the F3DEX2 microcode
• More fixes to mirroring and clamping (still not quite right though)
• Some slight optimizations to texture loading
• Now forces clamping to on when mask is set to 0 (fixes some alignment problems)

Download glNintendo64() v0.2 (52K)

What's new:

• Completely rewrote texture loading
• Added support for 4-bit I, 8-bit I, 4-bit CI and 8-bit CI textures
• Full TMem emulation (should be about perfect)
• Fixed up wrapping/mirroring/clamping support (still needs some work)
• No longer requires IBM_MIRRORED_REPEAT extension for texture mirroring (one step closer to supporting non-GeForce cards)
• Greatly improved texture cache, it now throws out old textures instead of filling up, plus many other improvements
• Now you can set the amount of memory you want the texture cache to use
• Transformation and lighting are now performed internally (fixes many problems)
• Greatly improved TexRect texture coordinate generation
• Some optimizations; all matrix operations, color conversions, and TMem emulation are done in assembler now
• Added support for F3DEX, F3DEX2 and Fast3D EXT (or whatever you call it) microcodes
• Automatic microcode detection (not extensively tested, can be bypassed in config dialog)
• Support for RDP SetOtherMode command, and fixes for F3DEX2 SetOtherMode commands
• Many more combine modes, and fixes to existing ones
• Speaking of the config dialog, I've added one. Note that the disabled items aren't implemented yet
• The plug-in now creates an INI file the plugins folder for saving configuration
• Moved all OpenGL handling and emulation to a seperate thread (hoping to fix ROM browser freezing)
• PJ64 ROM browser freezing nearly fixed, but it still happens sometimes (if anyone can help me with this, please do!)
• Reflection mapping much better now (see Mario's head and stars)
• Alot more I can't remember...

Download glNintendo64() v0.2 (51K)

What's new:

• First release under new name
• Using DrawElements now, should be slightly faster
• More Set/ClearGeometryMode modes supported
• More SetOtherMode_L and SetOtherMode_H stuff implemented
• Support for 4-bit IA, 8-bit IA, 16-bit IA, 16-bit RGBA, and 32-bit RGBA textures (not always correct)
• Support for non-power-of-2 textures
• Support for LoadBlock texture loading
• Preliminary support for LoadTile texture loading (still pretty buggy, look at Mario Kart to see it in action)
• Started working on full tmem emulation (when finished, it should eliminate all texture bugs)
• Very basic texture caching (still needs lots of work)
• Very hacked in (read slow) combiner support using NV_combine_registers extension
• Unfortunately, the NV_register_combiners extension is required for combine mode support (sorry non-nVidia owners, this requirement will be lifted later on)
• Very incorrect spherical mapping (only really works on metal-head Mario)
• TexRects now supported (texture coordinates not always correct yet)
• Moved DP interrupt generation to FullSync (don't know if it helps anything, but it's more correct)
• With all the new stuff, speed is starting to suffer some (needs lots of optimization)
• Alot more I can't remember...
