Changes

:A fork of Mupen64Plus with a custom-made Qt GUI. This is probably the easiest "just works out of the box" solution for Nintendo 64 emulation, as it comes bundled with ParaLLEl-RDP and ParaLLEl-RSP, ensuring both excellent compatibility and good speed without needing to mess with plugins or settings, provided your hardware supports Vulkan. However, unlike other emulators, it does not allow you to use other plugins. While it began as a shallow fork, it has increasingly become something closer to a hard fork, as its developer has opted to make various accuracy-focused changes to the emulation core that will require additional work to port back to upstream or to other forks. It also currently features only an a cached interpreter core, as the dynarecs used by Mupen64Plus are incompatible with the core timing changes made by the developer. While this makes simple64 more accurate than most other N64 emulators, it also results in slower performance. If more speed and enhancements are desired, there is an older build that is closer to upstream and uses GLideN64 as its graphics plugin - unfortunately lacking the texture enhancement suite required for use of texture packs and upscaling.

:Rosalie's Mupen GUI is a project aiming to close the gap between Project64 and Mupen64Plus in terms of user experience. Its interface is about on par with simple64's in terms of cleanliness and ease of use, but unlike simple64, it allows you to use other plugins. The latest version comes development versions come bundled with GLideN64 , Angrylion RDP Plus and ParaLLEl-RDP for video plugins, and mupen64plus-hle-rsp , CXD4 and ParaLLEl-RSP for RSP plugins, though it can still use the older plugins that come with regular Mupen64Plus in case your PC cannot handle the newer plugins. If you prefer GLideN64, this is a superior alternative compared to simple64, as the last version of simple64 that uses GLideN64 is becoming increasingly outdated. However, it currently lacks proper Transfer Pak support from within the GUI.
