Is it possible to convert the 60fps code for pj64 version to dolphin version?

81001890 2419
81001892 0001
81001894 2419

81001A3A 0001
81001A3C 2409
81001A3E 0001
80122CBB 001C

Searching the forums here I only managed to find this Gecko code:

00f72da3 00000000
00f7328f 00000001
010c1ed7 00000001

But its for 1P only, 2-4P makes the game runs too fast.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm. That's a pretty interesting code. And seems relatively simple too. This code forces 60 FPS for all modes? If memory serves me correctly 1P mode already runs on 60 FPS. Lemme verify it on PJ64 and see if I can patch this in the ROM itself instead. Hopefully later today that is.

Here it is

MK64 US Wii VC - 60 FPS (AR Code)

Code:

04F73650 24190001
04F73654 24190001
00F72DA3 00000000
00F7328F 00000001
04F73A50 240A0001
04F73A54 240A0001
04F737F8 24090001
04F737FC 24090001

It's quite buggy, but it should be an one-on-one port from the GameShark codes, sans for the last line (which did nothing, it seems) which got cut. So any issues stem from the original code itself or the Virtual Console not being able to handle it well.

The original code works horrible in the main menu and in 2-4P mode, so don't use those. But it seems to work just fine in 1P mode.

[Duke91]

Just tested the code and it works great, only in 4 player mode seems to stay in the mid 40s - low 50s, but really good overall. I got the code from the latest pj64 dev version, under the enhancements tab. Some other codes you may want to convert:

Enable 3-4 Player Music
8128EC9C 240E
8128EC9E 0001
8128F9C4 2409
8128F9C6 0001

Faster Load Times
800EA6D2 000D

All Cups Tour
8018EE09 0000
8128E3C6 000F

All Players Can Choose The Same Character
810B3924 2400
810B3936 7FFF
810B39A4 2400
810B39B6 7FFF
810B3A38 2400
810B3A4E 7FFF

Well, if it worked it worked. Because I was pretty sure that the 60 FPS code was pretty bad in any menu and any other mode than 1P.

Right... The Project64 Enhancements tab... I am not so sure why those are labelled as "Enhancements" and not just as "GameShark Cheats", since that's exactly what those are (in a technical sense). It makes me wonder who classifies them to be accepted into a different category. Also be mindful just because it's in the Enhancements tab it's not automatically a proper working code. We had seen cases of that before, like with OoT's Extended Draw Distance.
