Daedalus R7 Released! |
StrmnNrmn has released a new version of the hottest, and most anticipated emulator today. Daedalus R7 (Release 7) contains a nice speed increase over the previous version of R6 and also is the host to a new configuration system that will allow users to map the PSP buttons to the configuration/setup they have been dreaming of.
Many have complained that the PSP does not have enough buttons to emulate the Nintendo 64 console, but others like myself have pointed out that not all buttons are used in every game. So, if you are playing a game that have different layouts, you can easily change the configuration of the buttons before you start playing that game.
Aside from the button mapping feature, this new release features an average speed increase of 25-30% from the previous release. You can read the full change log below and see a video that I compiled of this new release. The video shows Super Mario 64 with tessellate large tris enabled and disabled. You will also see Mario Kart 64 which runs at 10fps in the game with large tris disabled (for performance). So, if you are like me and must have the latest, and the greatest emul
ators for your PSP, download this release below the change log –
- [^] Avoid checking for interrupts in dynarec code in most
situations.
- [^] Optimise dynarec Load/Store instructions to avoid
checking for interrupts directly.
- [^] Implemented the remaining 32-bit integer instructions in
the dynarec.
- [^] Implemented the remaining commong load/store
instructions in the dynarec.
- [^] Implemented JAL/JR in dynarec.
- [^] Optimised various texture cache related features.
- [^] Added various known value optimisations to the dynarec
engine.
- [^] Link together blocks even when they exit with branch
likely instructions.
- [+] Added option to allow frequency of texture update checks
to be reduced.
- [+] Added the ability to configure buttons
- [!] Fixed a couple of compatibility issues caused by the
dynarec.
- [!] Fixed a couple of issues related to self-modifying code
and the dynarec.
- [!] Fixed issues with the framerate counter flickering

Comments [refresh]
first post lol but seriosuly great im gonna go try this!
1ST
HAHA
pwnd
Trying it now! Can't wait! steveL88 tells me its great!
KICK IM GETTIN IT
Yay but not full speed jet! :(
Can I use exts. like *.v64 and *.rom?
Cool I'll try just now
It looks like Mario 64 runs 80% speed without good textures. Still looks playable though! Me download NOW!!!!
yes at last R7 is out XD
Why does it leave a massive tmp file after playing a game in Daeldus folder? Shouldn't it delete itself afterwards
where is all the hype at???
Der Speed is doch immernoch totaler Hirschkot! Läuft das Ding überhaupt @ 333 MHz !?
wtf.. after I load a rom (tried a couple different roms) and get past that expansion pack/texture update settings screen the screen goes black and the memorycard lamp is flashing and after a while it stops.. Whats wrong?
QJ i sent you a tip about this before strmnnrmn even had this on his blog, i was refeshing the sorceforge page over and over againh untill it came up, i was first to get the news and first to give you the news, i notified you before it was posted evn on strmnnrmn's blog so i think i shopuld have some credit for god sakes, its things like this that stop people from posting news to you, maby thats why your so slow, why dont you try showing some appriciation
wow, you can really see the speed increase! freaking amazing for mario 64. I will try Zelda in a minute.
YES! It's great to see this progression.
@17 It's cool that you want to help get the word about, but as far as credit goes: Get over it. You didn't make this emulator, so you really don't deserve credit for anything. They would have found out about this release with or without you.
And no i'm not running a firewall or anything else either.
mario kart seems to lag more than it did in r6 (it skips back and forth sometimes.) but i could complete races now, so im happy.
@20, it was slow the first time I tried it but i refreshed and it was all good. @17, I agree, QJ has been guilty of this a few times. You should get credit.
If Strnmnnmn or whatever the hell his name is get this to 30fps with Sound, savegames and sleepmode. I would be completely happy. Infact, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference between that and full speed.
nocomment
Thanks Zodionic for tipping us on the news.We are deeepppply sorry for not giving you credit .you are so great.........Do want a cookie?
finnaly, a good emulator gets better. Thank you StrmnNrmn
oh this is great!!!!!!!!!! !!!
StrmnNrmn you are a GOD!!! but one problem can any1 tell me y my psp loads it up and i select the rom and then all the text appears and it freezes shuts my psp down and i have to reboot? sum 1 plz reply to me at SkitzoTweak69@a im.com....it would be greatly appreciated
@#17 QJ doesnt owe you diddly-squat man
@#26 Yea ya kno what he does deserve a cookie
anybody try it ?!
Tell us !!!!
I like all emulators, and I like the idea to emulate the Nintendo64. But also with this new release, the games are still too slow. And if the speed is optimized, what's about the sound? I think the PSP is too weak and to slow for an Nintendo64 Emulator... If it isn't, sorry my post... But anyway, good work and maybe next month, next release, will be faster and better?
Definate speed increase ..Mario is definatly playable but still to slow to be enjoyable
damn pretty good!!!!
compared to r6 this one look s awesome and GREAT speed improvement....
@Zodionic - I waswatching the sourceforge files because I had to make the video and do the story all in a short amount of time. So, I didn't get this tip from you, I found it by myself as an anxious player awaiting this new release and making the video as well that I upped on YouTube.
woot.
WWWWWWWWWWWwwwwwwwwwooooooooooooooottttTTTTT.
I love you, strmmnnmm or whatever.
its going pretty decent(but the begging took forever) but its ok i saved the game so now i dont have to worry about that anymore
does this work on 2.6
very nice speed improvements on snowboard kids, super mario 64 and mario kart 64 from what i've tried. you're doing a great job strmnnrmn. awesome release. this gives me hope for playable and enjoyable speed improvements in the future. cheers!
do this work on 2.6
the thing is I tipped this suite on july sales the night before they put their article out, and they never thanked me.
is zelda playable?
slo-mo fun for all ages.. hehehe..
keep up the good work!! :)
I've been trying various games, and Mario Kart 64 is simply great! It's one of the playable games, and you can actually complete races now. I'm getting a framerate of 10-12 during races, like 20-25 at the menu, and about 18 when you've paused it in a race. If it were let's say.. a framerate of 20 during races, then this would be totally hardcore.
StrmnNrmn rocks ^_^
their job is to supply knews about everything, even the sucky games.
what games is playable then? what games is good? 10fps doesnt sound exciting though, great that things happen anyway
GOOD HOMEBREW Ive seen for awhile. But then again.... What do i know... my doctor says I'm 80% INSANE!!! ZOMG!!! HILLS!!! RUN!!!! ZOMG!!! DEER!!!
is it just me or does it seem faster in the youtube video than it really is.
I try it with harvest moon... 9.2 frames... Very slowly, not playable, but is a great work !
Great work keep it up. Ima rub this on my bro cuz he loves that DS so much. lol!!!!!!!
great work tough it is still slow we never though we were in this point so we can expect a complete emulation in the future
The only game that loads is super mario 64.
in the video the mario kart bit he is in 8th passses a load out as he does he jumps too 3rd but by the time he gets to the front of the crown he is 8th again.
bring on a playable goldeneye my xbox still cant play that proper so i doubt psp will get it down
53 - No, it doesn't play sound.
Anyway, great update. Keep up the good work.
No their isn't any sound but i read the plan for sound is at around the r10,r11 builds
i just got it workin man this is too great
Testing RightNOW!!! Supermario 64
Emulatores are fun but only when we can have full speed.
Like the Amiga 500 emulator, this one is VERY cool and I would like to see him running at full speed!
If N64 / Amiga 500 skip up to 1/4 - 1/3 of the frames and run at real time it would be great but 10-15fps games are just to annoying to be interesting...
I don´t think PSP is too slow for that, I just think it´s hard to program without SONY´s help.
Great Work... but dont release anything untill something is 100% playable
When a single rom is playable with 28~30 fps and has sound.
Release.
Until then, it's useless and time consuming
Does Pilotwings or Waverace work/somewhat playable?
does super smash work well
Can someone please explain why people can get mario 64 at near full speed but they can't get mario on gba to full speed?
I dnl this and tried it out and noticed a huge increase when playing mario 64. Cant wait for it to run faster and have the textures work.
>>61
It takes time and progress to get a emulator to run almost perfect, none ever run truly perfect IMO, but thats why the maker puts out updates to the program every so often. No one, at least from what I have seen on the internet, can wait for someone to make a full speed emulator to come out, because they'll think it was a fake and never beleive its true.
This is awesome for Mario Kart, I could finally complete races, thanks to this emu, I am still playing mario kart(having it pause right now).
I never though speed like this would be possible.
Thanks and Keep up the excellent work, can't wait till the next release.
This is outstanding! People may say that it's not good enough to enjoy the games and play it...but it's not about that. It's about watching Mario run around...ON YOUR PSP!!!!
Which reminds me....
What games work? Does Banjo-Kazooie work? How about Animal Crossing? I would loooove to shove a big screen with Animal Crossing in my brother face!!!
Keep up the good work StrmnNrmn....or Stormin Normin....
suks he shuld die. lol jk jk
it improved ALOT. mario kart seems a little gliytchy but thats ok
how many fps does mario kart run at?? im thinking of 'Backing it up" hehe
10fps in Mario Kart, however it seems to run faster than that (looks like it), just watch the video and judge for yourself - it's playing at 10fps
@68
Animal Crossing was on Gamecube...
If you want it that bad, go get a DS Lite.
@62 - Shut the ***** up dude. I can't believe there are people with mental capacity this low.
Could you clock your ir shell to 333mhz and then load up r7 and it would be faster?
u must b dumb animal crossing was relaesed for the n64 in japan and you can play it on an n64 emulator, it was only released in america on the gamecube
apparantely ur the noob, animal crossing was released on the 64 in japan, as animal forrest. get ur facts straight.
Awsome...you have our support man!
They should male solo emulators that load 1 game so they can be working on it's particular bugs n needs... like a Mario Kart 64 solo emulator... or a Super Mario 64 solo emulator.. but most importantly... a The Legend of Zelda solo emulator! Its just a thought.. i reallly think that this might work
once you overcolck the cpu to 333 using ir shell:)
a nice build. Speeds up to 15fps with Mario 64(Although textures suffer a bit) but hey, I'm not complaining, keep up the good work and wer're looking forward to R8!
Great job! WOW isn't enough, but it's all we have. Mario 64 (the only rom I'm really concerned with) is finally playable. Add just a little more speed and the next comments are gonna be "Where's the sound?" Again...great work! Thank you.
#17, stop being such a whining loser. Just look at your comment then tell me there is no sign of you being a complete and pathetic loser...
"i was refeshing the sorceforge page over and over againh untill it came up", What the hell is wrong with you? Just for some credit to help finally grow your e-penis?
Good Bye.
has full speed in the room where you go to the first level
is awsome. i actually got through a grand prix in mario kart with no freezing.
Everytime I pick a ROM, the screen goes black, and the memorystick light flashes forever. Theres also no text telling me how far it's loaded either (if it IS infact loading something). Does this happen to anybody else?
Tried Mario64 with the 333 clock speed enabled both through CUstom Firmware and iR Shell (wouldn've tacked on Devhook 1.50FW|flash| with 33MHz additionaly but that seemed a bit like overkill) and the clock speeds during gameplay are identical to those reported for regular emulation (i.e. 9-11fps constant toping out at 15) seems StrmnNrmn has already integrated full clock speed beforehand.
S.Y.M = $.WHY.|\/|

Test #2: Tesselate disabled, Mario 64
With the graphical sacrifice of Tesselate disabled from regular emulation in the 333MHz mode you can pull a constant 13-15fps during movement and 11-13fps on standstill (all fps from active gameplay)
S.Y.M = $.WHY.|V|
This game is playing full speed but the screen is flickering but that doesn't matter. this is the only rom that runs at full speed....... GREAT EMU
@ 72
Shut up. Do your research before calling others noob. There was an Animal Crossing game for N64 only in japan. It was horrible and kind of different from the rest of the series, but guess what? There was one for N64. Like ZOMG! God I hate arrogant people who thinks they know so much...
no comment
how's ogrebattle 64 run?
#68
I thought the amazing thing about the psp would be well....playing PSP games on the PSP...man was a freakin wrong.
I Hope The Perfect Version of this Emulation comes out soon before the PSP 2.... sigh
QJ is just the Messenger to these Emulation, The Guy who's making this is only working on this Emulator, DUH!
quest 64 actually does run with full speed the only thing i dont like about it is that theres is some glitchy graphics on the left side and top of the screen but the most playable game ive seen on this emulator:)
Holy crap I've got to try this. Quest 64 isn't much of a wonderful game but for some reason I've always enjoyed playing it. I was so downed when my N64 mem card failed, but now I've been playing it on my new fast PC and I think I'll try it with this awesome emulator.
It is moments like these that Sony should really really just give in to homebrew, even if they don't make a dime off of it. Who cares, I'm a customer who bought a PSP, and this is what I want. The customers' wants are more important than those of big corporations.
Now if only we had a decent GBA emulator. But I do appreciate the work that has been done so far on both n64 emulation and gba emu on the PSP.
10 frames a second!!! your kidding!!! BRRRRRLLPPPPP! waste of time! helllllo!!! 60 frames a second or nothing.
@100
Actually, 30 frames is full speed. 60 frames would just make animation look slightly smoother.
Isn't 15 the bare minimum into tricking the eye into thinking that the animation is real movement? I would be happy with 20 fps and low quality sound but this so far is awesome.
I sure hope that Sony will learn to support homebrew when PSP-2 comes out. If not, then they can shove it somewhere. I want handheld, portable emulation of the systems I grew up with. I just got done testing Super Mario 64. I can't believe I'm seeing (fairly) beautiful N64 graphics being emulated on a little machine such as PSP. I mean, only 333 Mhz, this is incredible.
By the way, is it possible to go back to the rom list without restarting Daedalus? I was going to test Quest 64 but I didn't feel like relaunching the software. I gotta go to bed anyways. I still can't believe that I just played an emulated 3D gfx system (n64) on a little handheld gaming system. 1.5 + homebrew forever!.
"Poops on Mario's chest" there you go!!!
I Just Messed Around with the Pictures because it looked too plain so here, lol hope you like it.

I just saw the video! IMPRESSIVE!!! AWESOME! GREAT!
In your face DS! Lol, You're awersome StrmnNrmn, keep it up!
that's amazing
how does super smash bros. if at all. would love to play it on the psp.
by the way but n64 emu does every1 else use on the pc im on project64
StrmnNrmn is a legend!
For anyone complaining, your all ungrateful pieces of crap. The fact that this emulator is even NEAR playable is beyond me. I give it two more updates for sound. StrmnNrmn deserves alot more credit than he's getting. Wow...a couple of more updates and we've got an outstanding n64 emulator.
ok, 1, is paper mario playable and 2 do you put src folder in the root?
Yall keep talkin bout mario this and quest 64 that... I'll be impressed once I play get Goldeneye or PD cuz that would be sick
Rampage: World Tour runs at 90% speed with textures turned off. Fully playable just without sound.
Top FPS during gameplay: 31.3
i tried super smash if you turn the dynamic recomplier off you can play if but the graphical errors are so bad that you cant see the people on the level ive tested twice on the kirby dream land level with me vs kirby and the tesstelate large tris was off so it would run smoother but if you cant see the sprites whats the point? hope that helped
fantastic job. really nice.
few roms work, with no sound and a lot of flick and graphic troubles. Go ahead, you r making an excellent work, but for now we r far to a acceptable version
Great improvment INDEED, very impressed!
there aint no sound right? - so i havnt configurated it wrong ;) ?
ok i guess i shouldnt realy get credit, but its happened to me to many times and its starting to get on my nerves
smash bros dont runs well whatever nice update StrmnNrmn ;)
someone who knows how to hack help and the emu will be done twice as fast :)
someone who knows how to hack help and the emu will be done twice as fast :)
Where is everyone getting these roms? I feel lame asking that but seriously..... if you would be so kind as to email me some or at least tell me where one would go about finding them, I would greatly appreciate that.
goerstad17@msn.com
Wow! Is it just me, but do the demo'ed games (SM64 and MK64) ACTUALLY LOOK FREAKING PLAYABLE?!? Yes there is quite a ways for speed to go still and bugs to be removed, but this is the release I have been waiting for-a release where some games are playable!!!
PPL... NO PSP 2 will be comming out in the near future so get your head out your ass's plz psp and ps3 is going to be the dominate thing when it comes out and new firmware for the psp for more fun with the ps3 and there you have it and no the Sony mylo isnt the new psp..
And great job on your N64 Emulator i hope to see R8's and R9's to 10's in the future.
Basil, I had the same problem. And I fixed it by unzipping the rom before loading it to my psp.
Animal Crossing loads with this version but sadly I don't think I've seen even 1 texture load up :(
StrmnNrmn is so awesome... cant believe what im seeing... please dont let any of those ungrateful bastard out there discourage u... u are greatest thing ever happening to psp thanx a bunch :) cant wait for ur future updates
his name is stormingnorman

where do i get roms from help
30fps=not full speed.
29.97 fps is full speed for north american video. video games run at 60fps though.
-Mike, video editor
i ment 101, my bad
that people are so bored of their expensive psps that they have to play 10 year old nintendo games at 10 fps just to amuse themselves. psp games suck that bad huh? lol
unless you're gay and/or have a firmware above 1.5, test the inside of the castle in super mario 64, it runs at 20fps with tesselate large triangles off! Very impressive speed! I can't wait to try out quest64! (dont think i like that game, i just read it was fast)
and to all you people who keep saying "blah blah i dont care until it's 60 frames per second" just STFU! If ur not interested in a psp qj.net news article (i'm not interested in 9/10 of them) just stfu and don't comment in it. As for me, i say keep chugging StrmnNrmn!
that's exactly what i mean by don't bother comment
Yay 1st post!!!111 I am the bestes !!!
WHERE DO U GET ROMS FROM
@ 139:Are you ***** stupid? or retarded?
www.master-romz.dl.am ;)
how do you save a game and how do you open them?
@135
Yes, most of the PSP games do suck. The N64 had some g reat games, this program allows us to play n64 ON THE GO. You can't carry a nintendo 64 in your pocket.
StrmnNrmn you are a God Coder Amongst God Coders. People said it couldn't be done. Just show them different. Make all these lame ass DS users who come here and criticize your work EAT A BIG ONE. Your the man. You are part of a PSP revolution that will be talked about by your childrens childrens children. OK maybe not so exaggerated, but you get what I mean. Keep up the good work and kick some ass.
PS : To all the CoQ RyDinG newbs. Stay off this forum. You all make me sick when I hear u complaining. You all sound like a bunch of Hayeenas on PMS.
http://www.daedaluslist.co.nr/
Compatibility list..
I Think Your Head Has Already Been your own ass, PS3 Sucks and it will remain the copycat system. This is just a heads up you no. So STFU and sop teasing ppl.
As much as this guy works on this emulation, the project will never be perfect, it would only be great, not perfect. As you see the SNES emulator on the PSP is not perfect and was in the works for acouple years and is still alittle buggy. So you see if this project ever hit perfection, it would mean future gaming system would already be invented by then when the project is completed 100%. Remember this nothing is ever Perfect!
you posted an address of a site that hosts roms and your post wasn't deleted yet o_0
everyone be sure to check out that address before the post is deleted, i for one never heard of that site
lol that site sux doesn't have alot of roms
yeah, there's much better rom sites out there. Most of you emu-heads in this comments section should know of them
Looks nice!!! Can't wait for the next release!!!!! o0!!!
dohgames...all im gonna say
can somebody give me a link to a website that has Animal Forest??
I have been looking for this game forever and can't find it.
FO SHIZZLE GRIZZLE .OH YEAH STRMNNRMN ROCKS I WAS PLAYING SUPER MARIO AND DANG THAT MESS WAS JETIN I WAS BASIXALLY PLAYING THE GAME AT FULL SPEED.NOW THAT YOU WORKED ON SPEED I WOULD GO BACK TO GRAPHIC FIXING LIKE FOR MEGAMAN ONLY THE CHARACTERS ARE NOTICEABLE EVERYTHING ELSE IS UNREADABLE OR HAS GRAPHIC ERRORS.BUT HECK TO DA YEAH NICE WORK DUDE.

ummm.. if it cant play paper mario, the single best n64 game besides BFD wants the point of this
PAPER MARIO 4 LIFE
Wow! Mario 64 & Star Fox run great! I can actually start star fox mission without my PSP freezing on me, And Mario's FPS increased ALOT compared to R6.
but for somereason its sayingthat there is no rom in the emu??? now what??
sometimes mario 64 saves fine and other times when i restart the game it does not actually save the game, has anyone else had this problem and know how to fix it.
this is pissing me off so much, its like the save game works whenever it wants without any reason, everytime i restart the program it acts like i didnt even bother to save after the last star, i just got 3 stars and when i restarted it says that i only got 1, what is the deal someone please respond
The only problem with this release is that it freezez coming out of sleep mode now. It didn't do that before.
anybody get goldeneye to load?
i cant get past the "rom settings" page. it just flashes black when i hit start and then back to rom settings.
i have tried multiple GE roms.
how do u work this im kinda slow in this type of things so can any1 help me please
i follow the instructions on how to install it.. but when i try to open it on the psp it comes up as a corrupted file and won't open.. im stuck there .. anyone know what my dumbass is doing wrong.. help me out!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!
so will we be able to play multiplayer and if yes how?
1st post
