It sounds like there's something weird going on with different leaks of this game.
The version everyone is playing right now has some issues (audio lag, menu music not playing, no fast-paced level music, glass not breaking) that the longplay in the OP doesn't have.
There was some talk about the current leak being altered to remove broken features like Xbox Live. Maybe this broke the other stuff too?

Graslu's version doesn't have Xbox Live features, either.

They have the option for Xbox Live when they go to the multiplayer screen, but the wide release doesn't have it.
I have played as far as the jungle level with a Radeon HD 7850, the "master xenia" crashed, "xenia canary" worked well, only major glitch so far was some corruption at the top part of the screen on the tank level, which I played on the old graphics to avoid it, rest was fine... well, performance is not great (not 60 but always over 30) but it feels ok... far better than it ever felt on any n64 emulator that I've tried for the past 20 years, that's for sure.... and better than on the real n64.
for your 5700xt, perhaps try forcing "no ROV" (my ancient GCN1 card doesn't support it and runs with it disabled, but I heard somewhere that with other newer radeons that do it might be worth disabling it for compatibility)
I tried setting d3d12_edram_rov to false, but the same thing. Oh well, guess it was not meant to be.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
Probably a placeholder / unfinished model. I don't think they'd ship it like that. Remember, you're playing a beta, not the final productI just gave it a shoot and it's pretty good so far. My only complaint is that i think Natalya looks worse on the remaster LOL
It black screens on my 5700 XT, but I just hear music. I can't get it to even load..
The game as published was GoldenEye 007, which the IP holders own the rights to, entirely. The music, the enemies, the levels, everything contained within the game is part of the intellectual property. You'd have to replace everything (e.g., a spiritual successor in the vein of Perfect Dark) to do a release that did not infringe on the copyright of the original.
This is a good question. I also wonder where it falls in regards to the forums rules. This is what I found there:
I think everyone can agree that it's not an authorized release. The not-so-subtle PMs asking for links suggests people know that it's not okay to post a link directly on the forum, though I have no idea if a PM loophole is okay. People are admitting to having it, which seems like it could be interpreted as against the rules as written.
I haven't seen any moderators comment on this discussion to clarify a stance since the leak, unless I missed something. It would be helpful to know what's permissible and what's not with this leak in relation to the forum rules.

It's not great, but it definitely looks more like the real-life actor than the original splotchy N64-whatever:
Xenia doesn't support system-link online play (that I know of). If you use Xlink Kai, you'll see people in its chat lobbies talk about using debug 360 hardware to get it working online (which Xlink Kai then creates a tunnel for).
I kept getting random hitches when I would shoot or something would explode. But, it was playable at least on my 3900X and 3080. Pretty cool to see.
This is revisionist history. Turok released very early in the N64's lifespan with the control scheme that eventually evolved in the modern shooter standard with all the important aspects in terms of layout already there from the start. Pretty much every shooter that followed had "Turok controls" as an option, though usually not as the default, including Goldeneye.
There are some missing effects when playing on Xenia. There is missing water on Frigate. How the heck do I get my hands on a modded xbox 360?
Would like to do some perfect dark XBLA as well, lol.

okay, but the controller was still not kind to the games I listed was the point. Loved Turok too, but also still think that even plays better on modern controllers.
The headshape is certainly closer but I don't know that an early 360 face can beat a literal photograph mapped onto a polygonIt's not great, but it definitely looks more like the real-life actor than the original splotchy N64-whatever:

I have a AMD Ryzen 3600 and a Sapphire Nitro+ 5700 XT and was able to get to the first Severnaya bunker level with no issue. I originally got the loading crashes, but solved it by switching to an earlier build. The one that worked for me was the 2020.05.18 (D3D12) build. You will also need to change 'd3d12_edram_rov = true' to 'd3d12_edram_rov = false' in your 'xenia.config.toml' file. This file is located in your Documents > Xenia folder.
You can find previous versions of Xenia here: https://xenia.en.uptodown.com/windows/versions
Taking the time to play through this again and wow I'm rusty. I forgot most of the objectives and I'm getting destroyed a lot (stuck on the second bunker now).
Still every bit as fun as when I played it back in the 90s or even moreso with the better controls. The "slap" sound when bullets hit someone is so satisfying.

Yep. Figured it out earlier. Thanks anyway though. 3700X and my 5700 XT run it flawlessly, pretty much.
Water is missing on the Xbox 360 as well. I beat it the other day on Xbox and that was one of the random things I noticed
I made it up to statue park on Secret Agent when I was just lost on where I was supposed to be going, lol.
Yeah, this game (just going from memory, haven't tried playing Goldeneye for like... 4 or 5 years now on an n64) feels so much better to play with a "modern" controller. I'm guessing there might be tweaks in the game to make it feel better too, but I'm not sure. I never tried it on an n64 with the dual-analog setup with two controllers or anything.
It's not fully clear, but it seems like EON/Danjaq might have been the primary problem. Or at least, the combination of EON/Danjaq and MGM being unable to agree on things.
How odd. . .
Though the remake included Daniel Craig. . . Maybe the hang up is perception that this would hamper marketing for the current films.
Now that it's already out there, maybe the 'powers that be' would approve it's official release. I mean, people are already playing it anyway, so might as well make some money, right?
No.
Modifying a compiled game without knowing EXACTLY what you're doing is going to break stuff.
It's one reason why actual archivists always preserve the original, as-is. A hacked up leak does -zero- for preservation efforts.
The forum forbids direct piracy, but not talking about things.
Basically, you can talk about the game, but if you link to a download site, ask for a download site, or distribute the game, expect a piracy ban.

As it should be.
Finally got to try this on Xenia. It's amazing, stuff of dreams. However I'm having a hard time with the sensitivity of my Series X controller being too high, I can't aim very well at all.
I wonder if an authentic N64 controller through Mayflash adapter would make it feel perfect since it's xinput. I suppose that would come down to how the C buttons being mapped to the right analog stick feels.

I don't see how this is possible for like 90% of the soundtrack given that most of the music in the game samples & is built around Monty Norman's James Bond Theme. The soundtrack also borrows a few key melodies from Eric Serra's GoldenEye movie score.
