Solved N64 roms not launching in Recalbox v4.0 and RPI3 (even after changing the n64.videomode)
-
@eightkiller I'll give it a try on my 4K TV later today and let you know what happens, because as of now I'm using my Bartop for everything (1280x1024, 19", 5:4)

Soooo @eightkiller
N64 on my PI2 (for testing purposes), with recalbox 4.0.2 on my 60", 4k UHD, LG 60UH8509, running in fullscreen without any problems, being connected via HDMI.
- Shaders are set to none
- Pixel Perfect is deactivated
My TV has "Mode 16 CEA" as preferred mode, which I have put in my
recalbox.conf
so the two important parts look like this## Set game resolution for emulators ## select your mode from the command : tvservice -m [MODE] ## CEA 5 HDMI : 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz interlaced ## CEA 4 HDMI : 1280x720 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive ## use 'default' for using the default resolution ## (string) global.videomode=CEA 16 HDMI and
## N64 emulator is configured to display a screen with a 640x480 resolution (native n64 resolution) ## So you must use one of these video modes (DMT 4 HDMI,CEA 1 HDMI). ## If your screen is not compatible with one of these video modes, please check the recalbox's wiki. n64.videomode=DMT 4 HDMI ## If you are using a CRT screen, please change the setting above with this one : # n64.videomode=default Everything else is left untouched

@Nachtgarm Thanks for your help.
I have the same config as you except i'm using a RPI 3 , my N64 was working perfectly on my old RPI2 with recalbox 3.x,
I Switched to a RPI 3 with the 4.x.x versions of recalbox.So it might be a an issue due to the RPI 3 ?
I have the exact same config
## Set game resolution for emulators ## select your mode from the command : tvservice -m [MODE] ## CEA 5 HDMI : 1920x1080 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz interlaced ## CEA 4 HDMI : 1280x720 @ 60Hz 16:9, clock:74MHz progressive ## CEA 1 HDMI : 640x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:25MHz progressive ## CEA 2 HDMI : 720x480 @ 60Hz 4:3, clock:27MHz progressive ## use 'default' for using the default resolution ## (string) global.videomode=CEA 16 HDMI ## Shader set ## Automatically select shaders for all systems ## (none, retro, scanlines) global.shaderset=none ## Once enabled, your screen will be cropped, and you will have a pixel perfect image (0,1) global.integerscale=0 and

I'm using a LG 42LW4500 TV Screen
What's going on ??!!!
-
Could you please backup your data, make a clean install, leave everything unchanged and start a N64 game?
-
I did a clean install just a few days ago, and only changed the .configfiles of other emulators (snes, megadrive, etc...) in the recalbox.conf
I'am also using a NAS to load my ROMs (so I've just added a line in the fstab and renamed my S31Emulationstation in S92emulationstation, that's all I modified. And everything is working flawlessly except for N64.

@eightkiller one very important recommendation users should know is how to follow instructions. He was clear about you launching a n64 game without ANY other modifications. You haven't tried that yet.
WHY did he ask you to do that...? Because the solution is not evident and you need to go step by step to see what broke n64. If it doesn't work with the very standard way, then there is no need to look any further in the chain of possible issues. So please, be so kind to follow the instructions. -
My bad, I'm a deadbrain guy :'(, I found what was wrong and it was pretty d**n stupid... I forgot to unzip the n64 roms and had them in .zip format instead of .n64, I was using my old bestset I had with an old RetroPie version I think. The fresh reinstall I just did as you suggested made me realize that.
Thanks for your help guys, and sorry for the trouble, fake problems like that are often the hardest to solve xD
See your on the forum.

N64 emulator is configured to display a screen with a 640x480 resolution (na$
So you must use one of these video modes (DMT 4 HDMI,CEA 1 HDMI).
If your screen is not compatible with one of these video modes, please check$

@leandro-siqueira this is a very old topic and you haven‘t made any question. I‘m closing this.
