Is it possible to disable anti-aliasing in N64 games via GameShark cheats?

it would be interesting, if this is happening with the GameShark cheat, too

Well, i may be too noobish, but i can't get this .bat working.
I use ROMs from Goodset in .z64.
I have 2 kind of errors.

For Extrem-G for exemple:
Error : File or path not found - [output.z64]
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.
Impossible de trouver D:\***\output.z64
Appuyez sur une touche pour continuer...

Translation if needed :
'uips.exe' is not known as an internal or external command, an executable program or a commands file.
Can't find D:\***\output.z64
Press a key to continue...


For GoldenEye for exemple :
Real N64 CRC Tool V2 [By Rao 1999/2000] - Update CRC's

FileName : output.z64
ROM Title : GOLDENEYE
Type : CIC-NUS-6102
CRC's : $0414CA61, $2E57B8AA [Updated]
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.
Appuyez sur une touche pour continuer...

Translation : see above.

So, firstly, i can't egt that IPS file (i must be wrong in folder structure, dunno...)
And second, i don't have the same error whith each game.

Any tips ?
Thank y ou !
'uips.exe' n'est pas reconnu en tant que commande interne ou externe, un programme exécutable ou un fichier de commandes.

EDIT : actually, it seems it was missing the uips.exe path in the batch code.
I have now IPS files for most games, but Extrem-G gives me the same error (no output).
The IPS files titles are like this :
68D7A1DE.ips
that's OK ?
Thank you !

EDIT 2 : here are the games that give me that same error :
Banjo-Kazooie
Conker's Bad Fur Day
Extrem-G

MoockyLoock, the games that give you an error are not yet compatible with suturnu's patcher. Therefore no output.z64 is created, thus the ips program cannot create an ips file from it.

68D7A1DE.ips is the right filename for the rom Jet Force Gemini (E) (M4).

Ah OK thank you
Thing is, i tried this and it seems to work, but I only have LCD or Plasma screen right now to test. (i tried both s-Video and RGB) ; but on those screen, the sharpness enhancement is not so obvious.
I'll have to try it on my CRT in my "lab".
But that's great to see people working on such foolish project :]

hm,
instead of searching and patching the video table and osViSetSepcialFeatures, it seems to be enough to patch osViSwapContext hardcoded (for most lowres games), too.

thanks for the list!
I've already started looking into incompatible roms.

here for example is a patch for conker

for 'Conker's Bad Fur Day (US) v1.0' z64 format
