#Goldeneye007
I saw an update video about the recent major improvements to the Xenia Emulator and one recent line got my attention: "there's even a new build with mouse support for goldeneye, perfect dark, and halo!"
Mouse Support? Apparently it's been in the works and I just learned about it. So today I'm checking out Emoose's Mouse Hook Build.
github.com/emoose/xenia/releases/tag/mousehook-v1.13.3
So far it's got support for Goldeneye 007 XBLA, Perfect Dark, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo Reach, and Halo 4. As I've already got the Master Chief Collection, I wasn't interested in the Halo games. But the Perfect Dark XBLA remaster and recently leaked Goldeneye 007 XBLA remaster? I just had to try it out.
Goldeneye 007 works flawlessly, the only issue I had was that the menu cursor was slow (which can be fixed with a simple change in the "xenia.config.toml", I changed the sensitivity from .5 to 1).
Perfect Dark also works perfectly. However there is a problem with Xenia and NVIDIA GPUs, so that kinda dampens my enthusiasm for playing that version of the game. Still, if you overlook the graphical glitches, you can play a remastered Perfect Dark XBLA with mouse/keyboard support. Of course you can still play the N64 version with mouse and keyboard too.
