SNES emulation breakthroughs
« on: December 24, 2010, 12:44:09 PM »
has anyone been following http://byuu.org lately?  byuu is the author of accuracy-focused emulator bsnes, and in the past week, he and some other very sharp folks have had major breakthroughs on the DSP-x chips.  this allows for near-perfect emulation of games that were either unplayable, or slightly off due to assumptions made in high-level emulation.  i don't play any of the affected games, and probably wouldn't bother with any besides _Super Mario Kart_, but it's still very exciting to read about this.  what's stunning is the rapid flow of progress; there's barely any delay between big news releases on the webpage.

All I seem to do is raise considerable amounts of hell/drama. :isuck: Although after that whole discussion, I read one of his DSP checksum threads (it appears to have since been deleted or edited out), and he explicitly stated that he didn't want to be responsible for bad dumps to be out there, and this was after several posts of him saying he will not leak it to anybody, anywhere, anytime.

So yeah, lots of fun stuff. :childish:

I'm going to say no, because v1.40 of Nestopia and v3.64 of Kega Fusion are the latest versions respectively. Although it's possible Nintendulator has since done something like that, but I don't keep up with that so I don't know.

Nintendulator for NES, but I've never used it. (I always went with Nestopia, which was accurate enough for me.)

There was some talk of a Genesis emulator a while back, maybe a year or so, over at Sonic Retro. I don't know if anything ever came of that or not.

Yeah, there's one of those in the works. It'll be quite the interesting emulator when it's released. Apparently it might get a full release this year. Currently a broken beta is out(The VDP is kind of fucked up, but everything else is fine). Not sure where to find it.

The emulator is called Nemesis, I believe. Some more info: http://gendev.spritesmind.net/forum/index.php

yes, I linked to a forum and not a topic. Info on it is spread every fucking where.

Cool, I'll have to check them out. I was still messing around with FCEultra but that was is incredibly old.

I'm really enjoying the tv mode filters in bsnes. Really takes me back ha

Let me know if you find anything Xlom.  I don't really feel like sifting through an entire forum for info.  Yea yea, I'm lazy. 

Also, I checked BSNES just now and it is quite good.  I'm just excited I finally have a machine to run it.  :laugh:  I played with all of the filters, quite impressive reproduction of the RF, Composite, RGB and S-video.  I was also impressed on how the sound effects are accurately reproduced.  I give it two thumbs up.
