Hey guys.

I have a question about Ocarina of Time.
Would it be alot of work to do a hack that makes the game run in 60fps? As far as I know N64 do use some kind of ASM language. However there it is not possible at all to make it run in higher fps with a emulator without making the whole game go to fast.

I suppose it would be alot of work. But it would be realy awesome.

I run the game with ReShade FX and it do look stunning compared to the original, but the fps is realy killing it(actualy around 20... *Ubisoft style*).

Here's a video of how it can look like!

When it comes to frames-per-second, does every single frame have to be accounted for, or can some frames be skipped?

For instance, I just tested something by increasing the frame counter in Megaman 2, so instead of it being incremented by 1 each time, it is now being incremented by 4. I'm adding 4 to the frame counter. Does that count as speeding up the framerate, and making it something like 60fps?

Or would 60fps mean having each individual frame (1 instead of 4) being accounted for? I'm not too knowledgable when it comes to fps, as you can probably tell.

I want to know if it is possible to modify a NES game to run at 60 FPS, or if the system is capable of it. For all I know, the NES might already run at 60fps. I'm not sure.

I'm not too knowledgable about the N64 either, but I would like to think that 60fps is possible.

I know that it is possible to make the RCP run faster by changing the value of the register 0x10050020. You can then reprogram the PIC input to accept a clock rate higher than that of the RDRAM, and that effectively makes your game run faster.

You need to adjust the audio output's sample rate, though. The audio DAC will run faster too.

It's great that you talk about this. Iam sorry I cannot help, I don't know anything about how either N64 or OOT works. I do know however that there is a hack for example Banjo Kazooie that will make it run in 60fps. But I think OOT is completely different than that game so it may not be as easy.
