a Nintendo - 64 Emulator on the Windows/DOS platform

After three years of undergoing the responsibilities of change the weakening dedication to what was once the most famous emulator firmed on 2003 when the last version 0.8 was released. Today it is known to be very unorthodox after zilmar's contributions but supports video and audio recording. Co-author LaC--one of the biggest names in the N64 scene for the time--designed probably the strongest sound emulation plugin period for the N64: a practical combination of the merits of Jabo's DirectSound, Azimer's sound plugin, and the No Sound plugin. The plugin support is very poor, and only the graphics plugin can be changed. This is still yet another emulator supporting special features in games that no other emulator does for the N64 while its uniquity is not only promising. Its system requirements were very high for its time. It is the first emulator to support NetPlay and does so more accurately than the later hack Project64k but is still the slowest emulator supporting NetPlay.

This emulator burst in fame since the open-source version 1.4. It was started by the designer of the standard plugin system for Nintendo 64 emulators who--with the help of the author of the default plugins supplied with this emulator--brought light to the scene after UltraHLE was discontinued. The graphics plugin is one of the strongest and can support even back to the Direct3D 6 engine for older systems. The DirectSound plugin is the strongest low-level emulation sound device for Nintendo 64 emulation and with the RSP engine used with it has the most complex support for games with special sound emulation needs. Eventually Nemu64's reputation was replaced, and Project64 became known as the most compatible memory emulator for the games in general. It is known to support features in special games no other emulator does presently.

Project64k is a modification of the open-source Project64 version 1.4 with a hacked support for Kaillera multiplayer network support (NetPlay). Nemu64 was the first to support online play, but Project64k is more famous because of Project64. Later came the more accurate and efficient 1964, and in 2007 Project64k was criticized as overly faulty as Mupen64k (later named Mupen64++ before the project was lost and replaced) came into development as the strongest N64 emulator supporting NetPlay. Still over 99 percent of NetPlay continue using Project64k usually because they never read about or looked into it.

Apollo is another N64 emulator project, but no progress has been published in several years. In this year of idle activity in the N64 scene Azimer promises soon "something out the door".

This is the legendary UltraHLE, the first N64 emulator to run commercial games. It even has sound and joystick support (the joystick support isn't too great, though).
