Yeah he's been 'planning' working on uBlock support for Thunderbird for one year, three months and counting. Still waiting for the construction of his legendary 'development machine' to finish up.......... Any day now.........
Thunderbird is made by Mozilla so that means he's worked on a Firefox project and uBlock works on Chrome too so that'd mean he's worked with Google, y'know? The math checks out

Is this Mooch's only outlet to act out? I imagine she is raised by a strict Quaker family.
>>140427670
Spicy detail:
>don't think it is a cist, but I am not a doctor. My doctor acted like there would be physical evidence of something like that.
Cancer would probably have a bump or something on the testicle, and there are no physical indications of anything like that. No lumps, swelling, redness, etc. Can't necessarily rule it out, but I highly doubt it (thank God).
I have not had any symptoms except pain, so I am going to wait for the test results of my urine analysis and MRI/ultrasound and see what happens.
I suppose it is possible I injured myself, but I feel like I would have noticed it if I had. I don't necessarily do that much physically, I mean, I exercise and stuff, I just am not a very physical person.
I'm sure most of us have had experiences similar to yours, so I wouldn't feel bad about knowing stuff like that. :)
>>140438694
No. I'm raised by a rather liberal family, actually. They're not all that strict.

Off the top of my head, this has not stopped an overwhelming percentage of the black community or Chris-chan

If he starts getting female hormones at young age he may not be that bad looking if he isn't very masculine now. He can get some sugar daddy then.

No you just have to have some disability. What state are in? It probably depends on a state.

No unless Simias does it himself.
>>140455751
I wouldn't mind if Mednafen continues to get optional "enhanced accuracy" features like this.
I doubt any dev really wanted retarded lines, the IR is up for debate.
>>140459706
I intend to...use these ehnanced features
>>140443092
Woah there, Captain Obvious.
I've noticed this in a few games. Why does the cursor flicker like it's in three different spots? (this is pretty old, but I'm just curious, I don't know if it's even a problem still.)
>>140462013
Pretty sure that is literally accurate and FF8 did that to note to you that those cursors were not the active one
>>140462013
They look a bit fast on there but I think that's normal. That or they're supposed to grey out.
>>140462013
Working as intended.

>>140456665
Most games only break w/ OpenGL 1.78, there's mostly only some graphical issues w/ GL2 Tweak (issues that are present in 1.78 too) AFAIK.
Out of my small collection of games I tried, those broken on 1.78:
Ape Escape (black screen/hang)
Chrono Cross (hangs after menu)
Fear Effect 2 (hangs during intro)
Formula One (black screen/hang)
Gran Turismo (black screen/hang)
Legend of Dragoon (black screen/hang)
Medievil (hangs during intro)
Silent Hill (hangs after intro warning)
Tomba 2 (black screen/hang)
WipeOut (hangs loading track)
Broken on both:
Crash Team Racing (intro image doesn't go away)
Broken on GL2 Tweak:
Dragon Quest VII (Menu is broken)
Graphics issues w/ 1.78:
Crash 1, 2, 3 (texture transparency issues)
Dino Crisis 2 (texture issues)
King's Field 0, 1, 2 (polys stretching over the screen)
LSD (polys stretching over the screen)
Metal Gear Solid (lots of stuff)
NuPa (texture transparency issues)
Pepsi man (polys stretching over the screen)
Quake 2 (polys stretching over the screen)
Silent Hill (polys stretching over the screen)
Skullmonkeys (texture transparency issues)
Twisted Metal 2 (polys stretching over the screen)
Graphics issues w/ GL2 Tweak and 1.78:
Gex Enter the Gecko (poly seams)
Gran Turismo (texture garbage)
Spyro 1, 2, 3 (poly seams)
WipeOut (poly seams)
Emulation Station or Launch Box?

Is this with the new improved GTE hack or with the old one?
I don't really know if adding perspective correction is a good idea with the software renderer, however if frankenbeetle becomes a thing it would be relatively trivial to implement in OpenGL.
>>140462013
I seem to recall that it's how it worked on the real console.
>>140470108
>Is this with the new improved GTE hack
Yes.
>>140430416
But simias is a beloved /emugen/ hero.
Even emugen doesn't hate him and that's something for a dev.
>>140435496
That makes me a nerd. Especially with the maths involved with GLSL based raytracing. All that vector math, dot/cross products, calculating refraction indices....
They just need to fix colour channels for flashback scenes and the codec. Other than that, looking good.
>>140473905
>tfw I could barely even handle eulers and basic calculus when making shitty Unity games
>>140476750
Is this software mode? I thought PCSX2 just rendered Snake normally in the codec.
>>140476880
No, it's GL hardware mode. All CRC hacks disabled. New WIP hack to handle games with that particular style of post-processing. https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/issues/1318
This is what Prince of Persia does behind the scenes, which is a nightmare for PCSX2 to try and deal with:
>copy the framebuffer 0x0 to 0x2300
>channel shuffle: move the red channel (0x0) to others channel (0x2300)
>change brighyness of 0x2300 to 0x0.
>texture shuffle: move RGBA_RGBA_... (0x0) to RRGB_ARGB_A...(0x2300) (I think, dunno if it wrap at the end)
>use alpha channel of 0x2300 to render into 0x0
>channel shuffle: move the blue channel (0x0) to others channel (0x2300)
>>140476750
>>140476880
Basically, ingame graphics now have accurate colour filtering, but the codec is green instead of brown-ish. So it's obviously mixing up a colour channel somewhere. Hopefully it proves easy to fix.
Performance doesn't seem exactly great, though, which is probably to be expected. Up until now, all the post-processing effects were hacked out. On the plus side, PCSX2 no longer eats shitloads of VRAM in games like MGS3 and GT4.
>>140430580
I kinda empathize with him, it's true that formal mathematics are a bit daunting. They use ambiguous notation everywhere, obscure symbols that can have different meaning in different fields etc...
I find that it's generally simpler to find some code that does what you want and figure out what it does. Basically substituting programing language notation for mathematical notation.
Still, it's just like learning a new programing language, with some effort you manage to make sense of the notation and then the snippets he pasted become pretty trivial really.
I guess what I'm saying is that maths have a poor coding style.

His tweets are gone too

>>140470954
I rather think he's muddying the waters. Give me a fucking 100% accurate native-res PSX emu; mednafen is currently somewhere in the high 90s. Even then, based on shit I occasionally read from Recapcha certain subsystems are held together with ducktape and bailingtwine and need to be refactored.
I do not give a single nickel-plated fuck about upscaling hacks.
I don't know if this is the accurate thread for this but I don't see a PS3 general up so my question is:
Can you play ntsc/j ps2 classics on a PAL ps3 with the ps2 classics manager?
Because I can regularly play PAL games on it but I tried booting Super Dimensional Fortress Macross(2001) on it and it just gave me a black screen while the ps3 was still on.
I tried googling but the official PS2 classics compatibility list doesn't list it at all and I can't find info on other NTSC/J PS2 classics for the love of mine.
>>140486303
PS3 is region free for PS3 games, but region locked for PSX, PS2, and Blu-Rays. You either need to put CFW on the PS3 (this is not the place to ask for help with that and you probably won't even want to do it because it's a fucking task and a half), or mod a PS2 or PSX to take out of region games.or emulate it~~~
>>140486576
My PS3 already has CFW which is why I've been able to use ReactPSN and launch downloaded PS2 ISOs encrypted into PS2 Classics, but there must be a step I'm forgetting here.
I googled ps3hax and other forums for the last 3 hours but I haven't found a solution to my problems and it's kinda weird, it feels like google and the forums give me answers for completely different questions.
>>140486806
Is your PS3 a backwards compatible launch model? Because if not, just assume that game isn't compatible with the software emulator like 90% of the library.
>>140486806
Okay I found the answer to my question, for it to work it must have actually been released as a PS2 classic so old as shit games like >>140486303 clearly don't fit the bill.
HOWEVER I can play the .ISO with the internal ps2 emulator, but the wireless controller doesn't work and I have to play with the tiny as fuck wire.
Ayyy

I'm not sure what this image macro is supposed to convey.

Nothing good ever comes from porting to Android.
>>140492006
But something good might come from it, anon. Namely forcing zilmar to de-Win32ize the codebase as much as possible, which opens the door to Linux.
>>140492182
Then why not just start porting to Linux?
>>140492324
Zilmar probably doesn't give a rat's ass about Linux. Linux compatibility will just be a nice side effect of wanting to get those Android moneys.

So apparently this game is absolutely godly, hard as fuck to find, etc. And every other post on emugen is about it.
Well I tried it in Dolphin. Given the reputation /v/ has for this game, and how apparently the sequel takes everything this game did and ruined it, I was pretty fucking hype to start playing.
What the fuck is wrong with /v/? Has it been 3 years since anyone here has actually played it? Is the rose tintedness THAT fucking strong with this game?

>>140501959
while i don't agree with some of your points i do agree that it's disgustingly overrated
a friend of mine kept telling me to give it a try, and so i did, and i never really got too far because it feels so sluggish all arounddisaster was a better game on the same engine
>>140501959
I don't want to start a console war but I'm pretty sure the fact that it was released on the Wii is the reason it's overrated. The same game released on an other console or even on PC would have been considered an average JRPG I think. Wii player were starved for "big" games so Xenoblade managed to become a must-have.
Unfortunately it's been that way with Nintendo consoles since the N64 basically. Nintendo fans are in the last stages of denial these days, we'll see if the NX manages to do better.

Wow your taste is like Nega/v/'s. I mean it's overrated but some of the shit you're saying like "Battle themes are so fucking terrible" are the exact opposite of the general human consensus.
Also you aren't high level enough to experience the real horrific fault and that is once there's a difference of 7+ levels or so between you and an enemy the lower level party can't even hit the higher leveled one without insane amounts of accuracy gems
So lets say I wanted to play pokemon between my tablet and phone. What would be the best way to use one save file?
Save the emulator and save file on google drive or what?
>>140523898
Just the save file, use the same emulator on both machines and set the save path to the google drive.
>>140524734
kinda useless though if its not available offline eck

>>140527165
Any time you connect to the internet it updates the file. Local storage updates the cloud storage.
>>140527165
It's only a problem if you want to switch from one to the other while offline. Otherwise just use the one you want and sync them the next time you get internet access.
>>140491097
>So this is the path Project64 is gonna take for Android
less work + better performance. What's wrong with that?
>>140528758
Well, given it's Android, it definitely needs all of that. I was just curious if zilmar was gonna wait until an ARM RSP dynarec or if he was just gonna HLE everything.
He's still gonna be boned without an ARM CPU dynarec, though.
Reminder that Retroarch still can't do this
>>140528758
It shouldn't take any path on Android. Android is not usable for emulating video games.

>>140529079
Emulate 3DS with features no 3DS emulator even has?
Yeah, no shit.
>>140529079
Whats mind boggling is why no one has set up the wii u gamepad to play DS games. Delroth went through all that work to figure it out and yet no one has done shit with it.
>>140529353
Not enough people have a Wii U to care probably. Maybe if the controllers become cheaper and more mainstream later on. Do we know if the NX is going to have a similar controller yet?
>>140529124
>It shouldn't take any path on Android. Android is not usable for emulating video games.
I agree, and so do many others. Which is why I think he isn't getting much help with porting to Android.
>>140528986
>I was just curious if zilmar was gonna wait until an ARM RSP dynarec or if he was just gonna HLE everything.
I highly doubt he will work on a ARM RSP dynarec. LLE is not ideal on android and zilmar never really did much for the x86 RSP dynarec, so I don't see why he'd do it.
>He's still gonna be boned without an ARM CPU dynarec, though.
This is true, especially since there are 32bit ARM devices and 64bit devices. So he may have to support both or pick one and not support the other.
>>140529504
No official news on the NX specs yet.
>>140529353
Yeah, I've been thinking about this recently. I hate emulating DS games on PC because it doesn't feel the same without touch screen and also because the touchscreen takes up a big part of the PC screen. It'd be nice to be able to use the tablet.

So I guess this isn't particularly relevant today, but could someone tell me why GBA games used to get leaked before they were released?
Please don't take anything you read in that 4chan emugen thread as gospel.
We have lost many devs who would have liked to work with us simply because of comments made there by third parties which really don't reflect my attitude or stance towards these devs.
I only hang out on IRC freenode at #retroarch and anything else you read about regarding me or what I say about other projects/authors/etc/stuff is simply hearsay and should be dismissed out of hand. I'd encourage devs at least not to read that board and think anything being said on there is necessarily true, there are too many people at this point who simply like to instigate or try to create rifts. For what reasons I don't know, but it happens regardless.
Unfortunately while I think the emugen thread on 4chan can be a good thing, more often than not it does more harm than good when it comes to developer relations. But then devs should stop reading this page and think it is a fair reflection of what I am actually saying. I don't post on there. I am a strong believer in the value of anonymity on the Internet but even I have to admit it is sad that certain people sabotage anonymity and make it seem like a destructive thing so that only non-anonymous stuff like Facebook/Reddit/etc remains. There should be more moderation and better self-governance to ensure things don't turn toxic.
Sure thing SP. We know very well, how much you like to disparage devs on 4chan.

I guess it's possible there were some unscrupulous distributors who allowed the rom dumping groups to get a hold of the carts early and dump them. Somehow Nintendo must have begun weeding out sellers like that.
>>140536535
Some of what goes on here is true though. You just have to know enough to separate the truth from the falsehood.
>>140536535
This place only serves as something to shit post on. 4chan has no value beyond that. Serious discussions are to be had elsewhere.
>>140536535
SP has hurt my feelings on numerous occasions. I've reached out to him and tried to make him see reason, but he says that there is a conspiracy against him and I'm a part of it.
I never trolled him not even once.

SP has a somewhat paranoid-delusional streak so that's probably why. If he would just normie-fy RA people would embrace him but he refuses
Don't mind me.
>>140543042
Too late.
>>140501959
You left out the one truly bad thing about this game - the writing.
>Was I memed? What the fuck is going on?
People are absolutely starved for good JRPGs these days, and as terrible as the writing is, this was the best one to come out in years.
>>140543042
From the thumbnail I thought that said "FOR YOU" in the center
>>140544318
You'll never get a JRPG with good writing again because translations are of one of two stripes now, with decent amount being a mix:
1. Boringly literal jaunts that pick up all the stupid anime tropes of the original game's script.
2. Memetown garbage where 20something hipsters try to write the latest "le funnay reddit meme" phrase and insert it in the game.
No one is trying to put out a solid, well written script that replaces the garbage tropes in the original script like "he's fast," "we're coming with you...because we're your nakama!!" with relatively unique, non-memelicious writing.
>>140530916
I follow it occasional as well, anon. Wake me up when it can at least replace DOSBox.
>>140539939
This anon knows what's what.
Code of Princess: Preserved forever on PC. No emulation needed.
Porting is the ideal solution to the preservation problem. Get the code out of the hands of greedy rights holders and onto Steem Steem and Gogog
>>140551537
Write an interpreter in C and it'll run on anything that can compile C code. Port a game to to a system and it'll only run on that system.
Ports are great, but for real preservation, emulation is the best way to go.
>>140551875
PC will never end. It just goes on and on my friend. No way Microsoft would ever drop support for DirectX9..............Right? ;)
No way GPU manufacturers will drop support for OGL after awhile due to Vulkan and thus all emulators using the OGL API will be rendered useless..........Right? ;)
>>140540858
Sounds like a buncha' dysfunctional horseshit to me. :/

I hope the thermal goggles actually work this time.
>>140554274
In MGS2 they do, at least.
>>140552460
The point is all attempts at preservation are ephemeral and must be maintained in the future. Meaning doom for any such efforts.
>>140552064
...And that is the reason people should push for more Linux ports of the mainstream games.
>>140550463
It already can, doofus. It's far more accurate than DOSBox.
>>140555062
Linux games are dependent on OGL though
>>140555573
Is SDL OGL?
How is it possible that two different games made by two different companies on PS2 both play similarly and have Crimson in their title?
>>140556382
Does it provide hardware accelerated feature-sets?
Does dolphin load custom textures for Gamecube games? Or is it just a Wii feature? 'Cause I'm getting no luck on Gale of Darkness.
>>140557446
>Does dolphin load custom textures for Gamecube games?
Yes.
>>140557601
Then any idea what's going wrong? I also tried prefixing the filenames with the game ID to no avail. Running a portable build, if that makes any difference.
Regardless, thanks for confirming. This at least tells me that I wasn't wasting time for nothing.
I take it there's no way to make some PS2 games not look like blurry shit.
>>140557795
I hate the man who invented interlacing.
>New computer
>Want to install Project64 again
>MFW Malware everywhere no matter what
Well fuck...anyone know any good MALWARE free N64 emulators?
>>140557776
If you're editing textures while it's running turn off prefetch. Otherwise, IDK.
>>140559879
mupen64p is your only other option. But don't worry because no N64 emulator is "good." Wallow in sorrow with us.
>>140559497
That's not interlacing (though interlacing can cause blur on PCSX2), that's a stupid bloom post processing effect.
You can try messing with the skipdraw setting to get rid of it, but I wouldn't get your hopes up.
>>140560139
Not talking about the bloom afterimage, that is expected. I'm talking about the fact that when I select Interlacing: None all my screenshots for this game get twice as WIDE but the game is much sharper. Also the screen bobs. So basically it's either sharp image+screen bob and superwide screens or blurry as fuck accurate image with no bob and normal screens
>>140559879
I remember using Project 64 waaaaaaaaay back in the day, so much fucking fun
I reinstalled it the other day, got bombarded with malware, removed the malware and installed a "clean" version, still got malware...fun times, just use another emulator, there's no hope left for Project64
R.I.P my old friend...
>>140560423
Did you try all the deinterlacing options? I bet one of them works without bob.
>>140560534I can't afford "blend bff 1/2 fps" since it's well, half fps
>>140560069
no, loading it with prefetch. i've also turned it off to do live editing as i do with all my wii games, but nothing. Ah well, thanks anon. I'll come back in a few days and poke around again.
>>140560092
>But don't worry because no N64 emulator is "good."
Maybe if you didn't use a garbage emulator, your experience would be better.
>>140559879
>>140560474
>not downloading the latest binary from emucr
well played. Why run an installer for an outdated version of PJ64???
>>140560474
>I reinstalled it the other day, got bombarded with malware, removed the malware and installed a "clean" version, still got malware...
This is literally impossible.
>>140563024
I've used all the N64 emulators currently touted as the best. They're all garabge.
>>140565486
The only real problem are obscure games. Anyone who whines about popular games like OOT are just retarded (like that one emudev).
>>140565928
Mostly it's the lesser known titles. But aren't there some problems in even widely known titles like Perfect Dark?
>>140565928
>implying long path textures and fog in OoT don't get fucked up on most emus still
>>140565928
The best way to play OoT is still Dolphin though.
>>140550205
If you absolutely _must_ have your game Woolsey'd before it becomes palatable, then why the fuck are you playing JRPGs in the first place?
Anyone here build their own arcade cab?

>>140568650
>>140569124
You're both wrong. The best way to play OoT is in Citra. :^)
>>140570120
One day. Not today though.
>>140570057
Why the fucking fuck would you use an rpi for that?
You could easily fit two full atx PCs in that case.
>acer logo
This guy is just trolling, isn't he?
>>140570345
>tfw OoT will be playable on Citra before it's playable on an N64 emu
>>140568389
>But aren't there some problems in even widely known titles like Perfect Dark?
Probably. I think the main reason though, is because hardly anyone plays perfect dark on emulator. Not sure why that seems to be the case since overclocking would probably improve the game imo. I hated how the game lagged on console.
>>140569124
>The best way to play OoT is still Dolphin though.
I'd rather use angrylion's and call it a day.
>>140570120
Do they even have a dynarec yet?
>>140572110
>Do they even have a dynarec yet?
Still WIP.
>>140571430
Pis are low power draw, dont require a lot of umph for pacman, lower temps, etc etc etc.
Why do people say dynarecs are the easy parts of emu-building, anyway? Not implying you guys said it just now but I do see that sometimes and it's confusing to me. Dynamic recompiling just seems crazy complicated to me.
>>140557795
Wildarms hack fixes it in some games. Worked in SC3 for me.
>>140460986
is that some xbox monster hunter clone
>>140573070
>Why do people say dynarecs are the easy parts of emu-building, anyway?
I'd argue that it depends. If you have a good amount of docs, then dynarecs are the hard part. But REing is harder than making a dynarec.
There are some emudevs that haven't even managed to write interpreters that are even as accurate as the docs... I really wonder who those people are who say dynarecs are the easy part. Chances are, those individuals probably don't code dynarecs.
>>140572668
Weaksauce. An emulator without a dynarec is no good. I wouldn't even use an interpreter for a SNES emu... No point in wasting cpu cycles, especially if you're going for accuracy.
>>140551537
PC is not forever though. Things eventually break, even though it takes generally much longer than on consoles.
>Get the code out of the hands of greedy rights holders and onto Steem Steem and Gogog
I don't think you understand what source code is.
>>140573070
Because those people are clueless probably. There's also the fact that some devs look down on dynarecs, not because they're easy to do but because they're less accurate and not portable. They're also pretty tricky to maintain and debug. Nobody uses a dynarec if they can avoid it.
>>140575632
Is there an SNES emulator that uses a dynarec?
>>140556463
WHAT GAME IS THIS FROM

So. I just got a cool fightstick and I'm trying to set up Mame with it.
How the fuck does Mame even work? It's so intense compared to other emulators.
I just wanna play some Arcade games in a sort of authentic sense.
Can I use PCSX2 dev builds or are they actually unstable?
>>140588334
Never used anything else over the last 8+ years, pretty much never experienced major problems. Just check the comment on the Buildbot just in case.
