Mupen64plus-ae: Animal Forest (Doubutsu No Mori) english patch rom crash

Does the non-patched ROM also crash?

Im not sure, I cant read japanese, so even if it could work, it wouldnt really do any good. if it helps, my device is HTC One X

I'd just like to determine if the problem is specific to the patched ROM, or if it also affects the nonpatched one as well. You don't have to be able to play it, just run a quick test to see if it crashes. The reason I ask is because I'd rather not go through the patching process if I don't have too. If you find that the crash only happens on the patched ROM, then please post a link to the specific patch you are using (and instructions for how to apply the patch would be helpful as well)

Okay, the non English patch Rom did work, and here is the link to the patched Rom --LINK REMOVED-- you just have to download it (make sure the file extension is .n64) and it should work :) thanks and keep up the great work!

Please do not post links to ROMs (copyright violation). I bought a Doubutsu No Mori cartridge off ebay a few months ago when we were working on plugging in the eeprom clock emulation code. I'll patch my own ROM. I found a couple of translation patches, so hopefully one of them is the version you have that is experiencing the problem.

Hi, I just wanted to add a bit to this. The author of the translation project posted the latest translation patch here: http://www.emutalk.net/threads/14426-animal-forest-translation/page74

You'll need your own, unedited ROM for it.

An unpatched ROM works fine with the gles2n64 plugin. Textures all load, game runs smooth, etc. However, it's inconvenient for those of us who don't speak Japanese haha. The old, partially translated ROM also behaves the same way, but is also mostly in Japanese.

The latest patch will not load with the gles2n64 plugin at all. Simply a black screen and return to the main menu. It will run with the gles2rice plugin, though. However, it has a ton of problems loading textures (mostly 2D textures), so the game is unplayable as you can't see a lot things.

If it helps any, N64oid runs the latest patched ROM with almost no problems.

Doesn't help any since N64oid is closed source :)

Upstream issue

It's the latest version of the patch.

If the unpatched version works, but the unpatched one doesn't, then it's most likely a problem with the patch.

You could request support for this patch upstream. Since the unpatched version works, it would most likely require some sort of hack. This is upstream: https://github.com/mupen64plus/mupen64plus-core
