do i not need a voodoo card for most of the good ones?

The only n64 emu that requires a voodoo card is UltraHLE. All the others you can play without 3dfx, if you have a decent card. Try pj64 and try several different plugins to see which one works the best for you. And stop posting the same question in every section of the forum.

BTW zephon...
what n64 emu do u use?
cuz i wanna find one that will run paper mario 64

ok to clear things up for people:

1) pj64 1.3 runs most games ever made on the n64 pretty darn well
2) all the info u could eva possibly need about the emu is on smiffs site at www.smiff.clara.net (then go to the project64 section), but just to clear things u basically need a minimum of about 500-600 mhz processeur and almost essentially an NVIDIA type card or ATI Radeon, and 128 ram. if u do not hav these requirements then u will not be able to take advantage of the emu, and if u visit the emutalk.net forums ull see how popular the damn thing is.

Note: Voodoo 3-5 users can use pj64 using the fix in Mr.Bollywoods Directcontrol, but u will still get visual probs like the original bloke who started this thread showed. if u want to see decent screenshots of the emu in action go to smiffs site, or pj64.net, or alternatively email me and ill send a pic of th emu in action (ive got a lot of roms).

Smiffs site has a compat. list which is pretty damn accurate considering almost all beta testers (donators to pj64) contributed to giving the compat. experiences with pj64 1.3. (thanks mainly to bodie and mojo123 for that).

also, uhle is pretty much dead, there are about 10 games that actually do work well, although for voodoo users and peopl who want to play goldeneye, uhle is the emu to use. (goldeneye is working on pj64 very well iin pj64, but not as good as uhle, same for zelda OoT, in regards to the start screen bug). pj64 1.4 might very well hav full support for perfect dark, among other big games. as for pj64 1.3 u can even play conkers bad fur day to the end.

hope that settles peoples probs.

ok try either pj64 or 1964. both can play the game, although there are many bugs, i believe some1 has completed the game on 1964. if i were u wait for the next release of 1964 (the authors seem to like thisgame), or pj64 1.4 (this could be ages though).
