    Ok. Another SDK Demo for you guys, but this requires some help from members. i need someone who has good knowledge of N64 CIC chips. This Image Requires a CIC hack to get it to work in an emulator. see pics below.

    IN PROJECT 64 1.6:

    It might require more than a "CIC hack" to get working in emulators, namely N64 emulators to get better. Overwrite the data from offset 0x40 to 0x1000 in this ROM with the same data from ex. Super Mario 64, or really any game that uses the 6102 CIC, to get rid of the CIC errors in Project64, but neither PJ64 v1.6 (infinite loop error) nor Nemu64 v0.8, Mupen64Plus v1.99.5 or MESS v0.147b (all just black screens) will run it. If you can, try the ROM on real hardware via a 64drive, Everdrive or whatever, and see if it works there.

    Tried it on my Everdrive 64. Works just fine. No patching needed.

    My Everdrive has the 6102 CIC chip in it and no bootloader for alternate CIC chips.

    Alright, so it's certainly the emulators' fault. Really hoping for an accurate N64 emulator to come out one of these days... or at least "somewhat more accurate" if bsnes/higan is any indication regarding system requirements.

    Well, i'm glad people got it to work. i currently don't have a 64drive, so i guess i won't be playing this anytime soon. i assumed that all this needed was a CIC patch, like iplrom. unfortunately, this is now appart of the growing list of non-playable 64 carts. thanks guys for trying.

    It works fine in MESS 0.146 and 1964 0.9.9. The latter may require specific plugins, so it's easier to just download MESS 0.146.
