Linux Gaming: Project64 (N64 Emulator) with WINE on Ubuntu

[MrKingclumsy]

Yo Dawg, we heard you like emulators, so we put an emulator on your emulator so you can game while you game :)

[HoodedPianist1]

@MrKingclumsy It's an emulator within an emulator! Emulatorception! lol

[ZNahum81208]

Wine is like Java. Java is a JIT compiler (which is an interpreter until it is more efficient to run the code compiled), so Wine would be a JIT emulator.

[cdmcowcam]

This is the best system I can emulate.

Gamecube and up lags like craZy :/

[skillertume]

wine is not an emulator, it mostly translates windows code to linux...

[adamvanderneut]

emulating an emulator huh. i tried and it doesnt work a fraction of the speed that it does on windows. get mupen64plus works just fine

[ivansegos]

@adamvanderneut WINE will not decrease your performance much, I used to play WoW on Linux with all the settings cranked up on my self build PC. the fps is no different, WINE plays WOW at FULL speed

[MrJnoman]

sudo apt-get fucked

[theOriginalLink1]

I CaN HaCk AgAiN!!!!!!!

(but I'll probably need to update my graphics card for wine)

You're a life saver! Thank a million.

[asmith4726]

sudo apt-get install mupen64plus

^-Native way to play n64 roms in Ubuntu Lucid Lynx or newer.

[unreality6794]

@asmith4726 I would use Mupen64plus but donkey kong 64 doesnt work :(

[zawette]

HElp when i try to open a game whit wine i only see a wihte thing

[moneykidz1]

Any lag? Would it run on Linux Mint?

[supercoolguyT]

Dolbhin is a wii emulator too could you post video about playin wii games in linux?

[AjFilmProductions]

Wine just adds compatability to your system by allowing you to run windows executables. It doesn't emulate a Windows system. Only some of its capabilities.

[HacksKid]

The people who created WINE said it stand for Wine Is Not an Emulator!

[WIIRULESMAN]

Even though there's no sound, I can still hear the sound effects in my head. I've played this game waaaaay too much. :P

[chucknorris687]

So you can run gaming emulators using wine?

[shiznetlcd]

wine is for any win apps not just game dude

[autonomous2010]

@shiznetlcd Yeah but good luck getting the off shelf programs to work with wine.

Games seem to have more compatibility with wine then programs do.

[shiznetlcd]

@autonomous2010 yea but the point is it still supports programs

[mrplow321]

Please tell me what plugins you used! Thanks

[tsiehtath]

emulating emulator XD on 8.10 works standard wine -.-

[DaweyYT]

WINE Is Not an Emulator ;P

[jbdott]

@DaweyYT Wine is a windows emulator. By definition an emulator is something that replicates another system. It definitely falls into the emulator category.

[DaweyYT]

To simply call it an emulator is wrong. It doesn't replicate another system completely, like a game emulator does.

[Seclusiion]

@DaweyYT It emulates system programs, though. Project64 doesnt emulate a Nintendo 64, It replicates a GAME on the n64, aka, Wine emulates a program on the windows computer.

[shadowpt]

Wine is not an emulator, it's a compatibility layer.

[parchesi]

why no sound?

[DaweyYT]

My RecordMyDesktop settings are causing it. I have sound.

[markwiebe99]

nice, but i have had trouble installing wine (im new to linux) i have tried using guides, i dont know which version or what to type in the termanil thing to install it (scripts guides give me dont work for me). maybe you can help me out a bit sometime.

[DaweyYT]

What Ubuntu version are you using? If you are using Hardy or Intrepid, go to WineHQ and follow their excellent guide to add Wine to the repositories.

[markwiebe99]

i figured it out by actually looking at the entire wine page for ubuntu, like i said, im new to ubuntu, one of the first things i tried tho was this emulator. the doom95 thing also works well

[themangodess]

Nice script!

[frecellbuu]

the list

whod do you put off jeje

[bustanutinyogut]

so does that mean ps3 can also run this through ubuntu?

[TOMMYLIU9988]

help me to install i can`t install

[mamonsin]

nice... i have it on windows and i wanna emulate it in my ubuntu. does it run all games like perfect dark and stuff? im gonna get wine and try. thankyou

[DaweyYT]

I guess it should work, every N64 game that I know works in Windows works when I use Wine. But I cant guarantee anything.

[DaweyYT]

BTW, Wine is not an emulator.

[mamonsin]

i know that lol =/ ive been using emulators since 2002

[trlkly]

Wine is still an emulator, even if they say it isn't. It's just a very high level emulator, that's all.

[DaweyYT]

No, it's not.

"Some people mean by that that Wine must emulate each processor instruction of the Windows application. This is plain wrong. As Wine's name says: "Wine Is Not an Emulator": Wine does not emulate the Intel x86 processor. It will thus not be as slow as Wabi which, since it is not running on a x86 Intel processor, also has to emulate the processor. Windows applications that do not make system calls will run just as fast as on Windows (no more no less). "

[SamueltehG33k]

nice!

[DaweyYT]

I hope you liked my video! :)
