how well does this emulate?

[____anders____]

the one that came with the HBC emulates most games at half the speed, some better, some worse.

maybe this update plays games faster..

Why is this a dol file if it's suppose to be a Wii version?

Here is version with a .elf file I made for those using the twilight hack, confirmed running ocarina of time but very slow (~12fps).

Simply extract this to the root of your SD Card and launch with twilight hack.

Can anyone tell me why I can't get it to work? Tried it with roms in root/n64roms, root/apps/n64roms, and root/apps/wii64/n64roms.

I wonder if anyone would be able to use the built in emulator for 64 games and make it so it can run roms. I dont think it works that way though.

[DPyro]

Ah ok, HBC can boot dol files I guess...

The emulator is "built in" to the games from what I heard, not to the system. Not very space efficient really.
