Project64 Crashing, need help

Hello!

Let me first introduce myself - my name is Paul Heyman... :D Well ok, jokes aside, I'm Spektarm, a long-time No Mercy fan, member of The No Mercy Zone, who recently discovered this place. I've played this game for a long time in the past, I've used all kinds of mods and stuff for it and of course I've modded it a bit myself (texture mods).

The thing is all of this I've done on my old PC which I can't use anymore - now I'm on a laptop for mobility reasons (studying abroad, etc.). I looked through this place and found all of my favourite saves from the past - ECW Barely Legal, TNA Impact, Summerslam, TNA vs ROH, etc. (all fantastic, can't put into words how much I admire the work each and every one of you modders has put into this game).

But this is where the problems surface. I had set up a certain save, configured Project64 1.6 with all the correct plugins and settings which I've already used in the past and I know they should work. And all of a sudden, after the hi-res textures are loaded properly and the emulation starts, Project64 crashes at the opening screens of the game - THQ, AKI - i.e. always before the Start screen. I can run the default unmodded No Mercy, but not the Mods/Saves.

I've tried newer versions of the emulator as well, with no success though. 1.7 and 2.1 crash as well for me.

As experts, what do you guys think the problem might be, guys? I'd really appreciate some help on this one, as I want to be able to enjoy the amazing work the community has produced.

Thank you!

What O.S. are you running?If it's vista or win7 may need to run in administrator mode and set compatibility to vista sp2 but sounds more like a bad gameshark code.
what save is it a patched save may need to dl a cht.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that - I'm on Windows 7 64-bit.

I've tried what you said too - running it with XP and Vista compatibility mode and it still crashes...

Furthermore, I have no idea what a Gameshark code is, let alone a bad one. :D

If it's crashing with only saves, you have a cheat selected that is making it do so. In system/cheats you can find the cheat menu, make sure you only have the cheats selected needed to play the mod.

@ ronaldrain: Good to see you, man. :)
