Fceux Nes Emulator
Silvina Spindler
So this just started happening out of nowhere, possibly due to stupid windows updates. When I load an nes game through launchbox, my resolution just keeps changing back and forth from 1080 to the resolution I have fceux set to run on (with a blank screen). Same thing happens if I drag and drop a nes rom file to the emulator executable file.
If I open up fceux, and then manually go to open a rom through the menus it opens properly. Any clue what could be going on? I haven't changed any settings since it last worked, but there was a recent windows update.
I'll give these a shot, do they support Xinput properly? Xinput with FCEUX is starting to appear problematic to me.
I have solved my issue (using windows 10 ver 17134). My emulator settings are "fullscreen after game is loaded". My resolution and setting mimic that of a real SNES on a crtc (resolution goes down to 1280 1024 32 bpp).
What was causing me issues was Windows "focus assist". I turned all automatic rules OFF ans set it to "ALARMS ONLY". I have no clue why it was causing me issues.
For SNES it depends on your CPU and if you have the special chip dumps. Technically speaking Higan / BSnes is the best and most accurate but they both have fairly hefty CPU requirements and you need the special chip dumps from games like Megaman X2 and X3 and Mario Kart.
I would just say stick with Snes9x if you are happy with it, it is really good and covers the vast majority of the SNES library without issues aside from a small selection of games very rarely played by most people. You can give Higan a try sometime and see what you think of it and how it runs on your system.

Playing NES games has never been easier with the tons of different NES emulators on the market. Here, we take a look at FCEUX, one of the best NES emulators which is still being developed to this day.Though you will be able to play all of the favourite NES classics with very few exceptions, FCEUX offers accurate emulation of the 80s and early 90s titles produced for the original Nintendo.

Gotten several people saying that Mesen is not running the demo properly and is causing the game to crash when using an attack or heal. Recommended emulator is currently FCEUX link to the emulator here:
Also, I made a guide for the Legend of Zelda Parallel Worlds. It is not complete yet, but I have the entire first quest done, among other stuff. I would like some people to view the guide and use it to see how it is/ give me suggestions. I coud also use help for a lot of stuff from anyone willing to help out. Thank you for your time. If you want the guide, just tell me here and I will include a megaupload link.
Very few video hardware (and more so their drivers) these days support true 320x240x8. 640x480 is the lowest most video hardware will ever do. That, or then anything lower will be upscaled to 640x480.
I also tried setting custom to my screen res but it just stays in a black box on the upper left hand corner of my screen and still plays the game. I can't see anything but it still plays. THis is honestly ****ing retarded, the emulator should just have an option to go full screen, not have me **** around with stupid options that make the user confused. JNES will go full screen for me perfectly fine. I just click on it in a menu and it goes full screen. That is how FCEUX should handel things. Sorry to rant, but I am angry, I have tried everything and nothing will work.
Wow, I must say, everything looks ALOT better with this hq3x stuff! Finaly got full mode by hiding my taskbar though. I still say it is ridiculous and needs to be made a lot simpelr but whatever. Anyways, can somone PLZ check out my guide??? I worked hard on it and would like some feedback. SO any LOZ players out there plz help me out thanks! My graphics card is a Nividia GEFORCE 9300 so yeah, that explains why the 300 resolution thing wont work. Thanks though! This site rocks!
Problem installing it this way is that if you have all your ROMs in some directory outside your home folder then you won't be able to get to it because of snap's isolation security. You will have to put the ROMs somewhere in your home directory.
If you have a massive library of ROMs on some mount for example at /mnt/romdisk/... Well you'll struggle to get to it. If this setup is for your kids, well it fails the KISS ideal! (Keep it simple and stupid!)
ConclusionMy preference is the repo version point 2 above. Just works, KISS for the kids, get's to any mount where you have a library of Nintendo games.Honestly, especially now in the middle of a Coronavirus pandemic, this Nintendo emulator with all the ROMs available free on the internet is a God send! They play while I work!
Tip: If you have an old XBOX controller, it works with it. But works best with most games if you don't try and configure the left thumbstick but program instead the bottom left directional-pad. Then just use the same A and B buttons!
As of version 2.3.0, the SDL port migrated from GTK2 to a cross platform Qt5 GUI front end. The 2.4.0 version was the first release in which the SDL port is runnable on Windows, Linux, and macOS operating systems.
It has been ported to DOS, Linux (with either SVGAlib or X), macOS (its SDL port should also work on other Unix-like platforms such as FreeBSD, Solaris and IRIX), Windows, GP2X,[5] PlayStation Portable,[6][7] the Nintendo GameCube, Wii,[8] PlayStation 2 and Pepper Pad.
FCE Ultra was forked from FCE (Family Computer Emulator).[9] Its last full release was version 0.98.12 in August 2004, while a pre-release version 0.98.13-pre was released in September 2004 as source code only. After that, development appeared to stop and the homepage and forums for the emulator were taken down.
In the absence of official development, many forks of FCE Ultra were created. Most notable are FCEU-MM, which supports many new and unusual mappers,[10] FCEU Rerecording, which incorporates many useful features for tool-assisted speedruns,[11] and FCEUXD SP, which adds a number of debugging utilities.[12]
In March 2006 it was reactivated[13] and shortly thereafter a project was initiated to combine all the forks into one new application called FCEUX, which attracted collaboration from many authors of the various forks of FCE Ultra.
FCEUX was first publicly released on August 2, 2008. This fork of the emulator has continued steady development since then, allowing the other forks to become deprecated, and now has features the original FCE Ultra does not, such as native movie recording support and the ability to extend, enhance, or alter gameplay with Lua scripts. Thus it has become far more advanced than its predecessors.[14]
FCE was written by Bero. FCE Ultra was written by Xodnizel. It was reactivated by Anthony Giorgio and Mark Doliner. The FCEUX project was initiated by Zeromus and Sebastian Porst. Additional authors joined the group prior to its first release, including mz, adelikat, nitsujrehtona, maximus, CaH4e3, qFox and Lukas Sabota (punkrockguy318). Other contributors have included Aaron O'Neal, Joe Nahmias, Paul Kuliniewicz, Quietust, Parasyte, bbitmaster, blip, nitsuja, Luke Gustafson, UncombedCoconut, Jay Lanagan, Acmlm, DWEdit, Soules, radsaq, qeed, Shinydoofy, ugetab and Ugly Joe.[14][15][16][17]
