I have been retexturing facility and am getting close to finishing it. But, when I play the game it will lag in some spots due to the texture. I don't think it is my computer. I have 8gb of ram and a quad core processor. My graphics card is a Nvidia gtx460m. I was thinking maybe it was too much for the emulator? So I went back and halved some of the textures so they would only be 2x to 4x the resolution. Is it they emulator or do I have the configuration wrong? I'm using rice 6.1.4 to do this because it's the only video plugin I can get to work with hires textures. Thanks again everyone for the support. Maybe I'll post some pictures soon or upload the work in progress.

Are you using Project64 for your emulator? If so, make sure that the custom GoldenEye ROM (if you are indeed using one) is using the following settings...

CPU Core Style: Recompiler
Self Modifying-Core Type: Change Memory and Cache
Memory Size: 4 MB
Advanced Block Linking: On
Default Save Type: Use First Used Save Type
Counter Factor: 2
Check marks by: Large Compile Buffer, Register Caching, SP Hack, Use TLB

If not, the game will run slower than usual, since the emulator doesn't know what settings to use on it, as it relies on the CRC Checksum in the ROM header - which is recalculated when enough changes are made to the game. Hopefully that will help.

Wreck, Zodiac is trying to make one of these hires texture packs for emulators, not modifying the ROM itself.

while I'm at it, Zodiac, to my knowledge nobody makes hirez texture packs here. the main activity here is ROM hacking, which differs greatly from emulator/videoplugin based texture replacement.
You'll probably find answers to your problems here:

Oh I see. I will try these settings here. Yes I am using project64 for my emulator. Thanks for the support. Didn't realize this was not part of the hacking. I apologize. I tried to join their site but there was a glitch in the server and wouldn't let me. I like this site anyway, I appreciate the prompt responses from everyone.
Ok, thanks again:)
