General
- Fix: ODM selection and game configuration applied incorrectly for unknown cartridges under certain conditions
OS
- New: Added ‘Startup Action’ feature. You can now directly play the inserted cartridge when powering on 3D. Navigate to Settings → System → ‘Startup Action’ and select ‘Cartridge’ or ‘Library’
- New: Added ‘Power Off’ from OS menu. You can now power off 3D from either the in-game menu or settings menu
- Improved: Virtual Controller Pak, game configuration, and playtime are now saved if 3D is powered off during gameplay
- Improved: Auto overclock behavior
- Improved: OS visual polish
Notes
- Original N64 games required an active controller to start. When Startup Action is set to Cartridge, a controller must be connected on P1 when 3D is powered on
I tried it out and it’s as expected not as fast as original hardware. You get the Analogue 3D logo for a few seconds and then it boots into the game. It’s pretty cool though, my TV goes through a few seconds of “game mode enabled” anyway. You can still access the OS with Z + Start (I think, I do this with muscle memory), so I might leave this and see how it goes. If you already have a wireless controller paired up, you can just turn it on and it’ll connect to the 3D even before the game starts on the screen (tested with the NSO N64 controller).
Thanks for the update, it’s appreciated!
That’s cool to hear. I’ll have to try it out when I get the chance. Sounds similar to how my Super NT works if I remember right; though it’s been a while since I booted it up.
Good to hear about the wireless controller too. That was honestly the one thing that I thought would hold me back from using these new settings.
