Probably the best result you'll end up getting outside of paying out the ass for a cart.

I have a cart but the N64 looks like ass on my TV, I think it'd be better on a CRT but I don't have one or room for one.

I will never fucking understand why this exists. Like what is the goddamn point? What do you gain from withholding information that can be of value to someone?

You've got to remember these are on the same forums that will close threads because they think "download" means "pirate" in the modern era. They're the same idiots who have both the "use the search function, thread closed" and "don't necro, thread closed" without any hint of irony.

These terrible forums have ridiculous rules about the type of content you're allowed to post. Some of the fixes would breach the forum's arbitrary and retarded rules. Not all of them are >>385100757 but a lot would be. I saw a thread advocating DS fix get closed early on after the Dark Souls 1 PC release. These are real forums.

I once found someone like that and holy shit I was mad, he asked me how to installe The Sims even though he just needed to follow the instructions on the fucking installer, like what does it even change if you read what I write instead of the installer itself.

>game has a massive issue
>when the problem actually can't be fixed by mods and was never patched out

God Eater 1 & 2 on PC has this weird ass issue where if you play multiplayer with more than 2 people, it'll sperg out at the results screen if anyone takes too long.

The only way to prevent this is to everyone mash the results screen as fast as you can to skip through it. If you don't, it'll get stuck on the Waiting For Players screen. The thing is, the game saves AFTER the Waiting For Players screen so you'd end up losing progress on the hunt you just did. Only thing to do after that is to have the host or whatever disconnect, so the other players would keep their progress. If I recall, the host would lose progress anyway.

It honestly baffles me that this hasn't been fixed. The game is enjoyable but that actually makes me mad as fuck.

>>385110261
Medieval 2: Total War. The game used to have a launcher that allowed you to select mods and such before the game launched because you had to pick from which expansion campaign you wanted to use
With a steam update, it reduced it to 5 steam buttons, so everyone recommended just replacing which launcher corresponded with each button. But the tool I used was a replacement launcher that served the old one's purpose, and could still run even with the update.

back in days. on some retarded mmo forum, i had a problem with setup file, i posted exact fucking error code. gayass GM asked for my specs. i was using vista.

I wasn't referencing 4chan. I was referencing experiences on other forums kinda like how others are doing in this thread.

>>385124612
I miss that a little bit I feel like it kept out the super sensitive fucks that I can only imagine are the ones screaming about SJW, ASJW and /pol/ shit nowadays.

oh boy. none of the posters have ever experienced any of that they're posting. they're simply posting over and over again the same things to give purpose to their lives

Haven't tried to play an old game recently, have you?
Shit, I ran into half of these problems when I modded morrowind 2 days ago.

>>385085860
what game

>>385124484
show us anon. You can block out your name

>>385086069
not him, but maybe your toaster is below the requirement

No joke, once I was sitting around doing nothing and suddenly remembered a forum post from five years ago where I emailed a guy the fix without publicly answering the question or posting the files. I felt so terrible that I logged back in for the first time in years just to publicly answer.

How much did you have to post/play their stupid game for your account to work anon? That's the only thing I can think of that I haven't tried.
