:An open-source multi-system emulator and successor to Near's [[higan]] project, with a mostly original N64 core. Unlike other N64 emulators, it aims for high accuracy and does not employ HLE RSP or RDP emulation of any kind, not does it use game-specific hacks. It uses Themaister's ParaLLEl-RDP Vulkan renderer (with Angrylion's MAME renderer as a software-based fallback) for pixel-perfect LLE graphics. While it is currently less compatible than Mupen64Plus or Project64, it is quickly catching up to them (only a handful of games are currently listed as partially or not working), and it currently passes several stringent accuracy tests the other emulators do not. However, it remains to be seen how accurate its developers are willing to make it without compromising speed and playability on current machines. | :An open-source multi-system emulator and successor to Near's [[higan]] project, with a mostly original N64 core.
