Frequently asked questions about sixtyforce:

Where can I download cartridges?

I can't tell you how to get cartridges that are commercial games. There are devices you can use to do it legally, but the laws are different depending on where you live and I don't want to give anyone bad advice. There are plenty of other places on the internet that can help you figure out how to acquire cartridges legally.

Why do things sound wrong?

There are two things that may break sound:

1) Compatibility. The audio plugin included with sixtyforce doesn't work with all games. To fix this, choose "Use high quality audio processing" in the preferences. This should get the sound working right if it's a compatibility problem.

2) Skipping. You will hear pops and skips if the emulation's timing is off. On slower machines using the included audio plugin may help speed up the sound. Choose "Use plugin audio" in the preferences to try this. If skipping is happening because a game is running too fast, make sure 'Enable Speed Limiter" is selected in the 'Options' menu.

If neither of these help, either your machine is too slow for sixtyforce or there is a bug with the emulation. Both of these are being worked on!

Why can't I run in fullscreen?

If you get an error message when trying to run in fullscreen mode, try turning off any optional graphics features. (For example: Anti-aliasing.)

Why doesn't [fill in the blank] work?

Emulation is tricky business. If something isn't working, it's because there's a glitch in the emulation somewhere. If a game appears to be working, but the graphics aren't displaying correctly, try using a different graphic plugin with the game.

If your game cartridge has been patched or modified in any way, this may prevent it from working in sixtyforce. You may also want to check the compatibility list to see if there are any notes on how to get a specific game working.
