    I cant seem to run Vigilante 8 or Vigilante 8 2nd offense on Project64. Can somebody tell me what is the best Emulator and Plug-ins to use for Vigilante 8 and Vigilante 8 2nd offense.

    I was having problems running them as well, and I deleted them(of course that was before I discovered this site...). I'd still like to know what I need to do to get them running well, as I would like to get them again for multiplayer purposes. I'm using project64 as well(version 1.6), and the menus were glitched(backgrounds not displaying correctly and menu options either not clearly visible or visible, but not matching the backgrounds. And there were black boxes around certain objects in gameplay, though gameplay itself seemed to be running at speed. I'm also having menu problems in the PSX versions(ePSXe 1.7), though not as bad as when I tried using ePSXe 1.6, which was equivalent to(or worse than) the 64 versions, graphics and menuwise. Yet Star Wars: Demolition runs flawlessly on ePSXe 1.7(though it was prone to crashing in the menus on version 1.6[thought I'd mention it as it's essentially the 3rd Vigilante 8]).

    Another problem is that since the menus are glitched, I can't keep track of my upgrade points in Vigilante 8: 2nd Offense. Please help?

    menu glitches are a misconfigured graphics plugin, try checking the 'fixes' section of Pete's dx7 config.

    Don't have Pete's Dx7(just Dx6 ver.); where would I find it?
    I tried clicking the link in the ePSXe plugin pack thread, but it just comes up that the page was stolen ???.

    The link in that thread is dead. Search on google and you will find the same thing elsewhere.





    PS. Optimus prime did nothing in that movie. Except get completely owned the single time he fought.

    Found it, downloaded it, read the FAQ and realized I already had it(for some reason, neither the one I had, nor the one downloaded are labeled as the Dx7 ver.).
    Switched to it, and when it didn't immediately work, I started messing with settings and through trial and error, determined all I had to do was switch to FVP.


    PS. Optimus had TWO fights(did you forget how the freeway chase ended with Optimus DECAPITATING Bonecrusher?), and in the one that he was having trouble with, he was fighting MEGATRON! No matter how awesome Optimus Prime is, that fight was NOT going to be a cakewalk.

    While it's nice that I got it working on ePSXe, I'd still like to know what I need to do to get it working on Project64.
