Cores are essentially emulators designed to work specifically in Retroarch and are usually based on existing emulators.

Its a bit clunky, but one workaround is to install Retroarch into a second, separate folder so that you have two separate versions of Retroarch one that runs GL cores and the other for Vulkan.

To add games to your Retroarch N64 library, go to Import Content - Scan Directory in the Retroarch menu, then navigate to where you keep all your N64 roms on your PC.

Go over to the icon, select your game, click Run, then select the core you want to run the game.

Next, pick an N64 game by going over to the N64 controller icon in your Retroarch menu (assuming youve already added your games), and make sure to Run it using ParaLLel N64.

Remember, again, that youll need to set your video drivers in Retroarch to gl for this to work.

From the main menu just select Load Core, and select Mupen64Plus from the list.

Or go to Download Core and find it there if you dont have it yet.) Select a game from your collection, then click Run and select the Mupen64Plus core.

If you previously ran that game with another core, youll need to select Reset Core Association instead of Run in the games Retroarch menu.).
