well the original port gets nice speed, just no sound. so it should be decent

Sound does add alot on though...mute an n64 emu and youll get quite a bit of extra frames per second. The thing to remember here is that the xbox has nothing else running, while your computer has many programs (and an OS) running, while emulating. Not to mention, an emulator on the xbox can be designed specifically for the xbox, so there needn't be extra settings for every variation of video card.

ok to all the skeptics out there, 5 days meant 5 days without sleeping. a lot of Redbul was exchanged in that time. but this is legit, we will be needing 10 beta testers in the coming days, possibly next week sometime. and to the person who ask what is the meaning of fine? it mean I got theroms to work pretty, good, except with some sound issues.

soplease dont bash me or the people who are also involved in this project. we are going as fast as we can to get this to work. and the only reason we said something was because it was close to beng done.

We will deliver just be nice.

EDIT- Please dont PM me on the forums, just email me [email protected]

keep up the good work... hope you guys fix all the bugs .... cant wait to play starfox 64 again....
i have 4 controllers i can beta test multiplayer games for you

LunarEclipse · « **Reply #48 on:** April 07, 2003, 07:47:00 PM »

I have selected 6 testers so far, they have gotten their email saying so, I need 4 more, so give me your feed back. and everything is going smoothly, but we are taking tomorrow and wednsday off. We have been working on this project 24/7 to get everything to work.

so who will be the lucky 4 people? better get crackin for a spot. and Im sorry to say, we are putting safeguards on our emulator to prevent leaking or distribution till the first version is released sorry.

Good Luck everyone!!!!

Good job on the emulator, I expect to see great things from this.

LunarEclipse · « **Reply #50 on:** April 07, 2003, 08:02:00 PM »

By the way Im only taking applications by email.

PMing, AIMing, and posting for a spot on the boards will be rejected. sorry to be harsh

any help or testing you need, i'll help. glad to see someone took up this project, i contacted the previous coder, and he hasn't responded. keep up the good work

Who WAS THE PREVIOUS CODER?

it was the author, on the daedalus homepage....

LunarEclipse: you've got mail

Can't wait to see Super Smash.

10 Beta testers have been chosen. and please not that these were rather difficut decisions based on the modded box, and the amount and type of roms that they have. if you have recieved a notification email congrats.

to those that have been slected you will recieve a download link on or around the 20th (hehe 4/20 get it?)

once again, I apoligize to the peeps that didn get selected but do know that it will be worth the wait.

LunarEclipse, thats not bad work for saying you've managed 93 hours on Morrowind as well as messing around with linux and other stuff.

Just take a quick search on LunarEclipse in the forums, I think this is a joke or a brag that has just got out of hand, If a N64 emu was on the cards here then it would be amazing, but somehow I dont think its going to be coming from someone who post's because he can't get cheat codes to work for a snes emu...serious coding takes serious time, also I dont beleive that the source code to the xbox version was ever made public..

Come on guys this is crap!

I agree 100%. I guess the xbox scene will have to experience all the lying assholes themselves, like the dreamcast scene did, before they start taking things with a grain of salt. I mean... common, this guy is so obviously fake it makes me feel bad for all the people believing in him. SNAP OUT OF IT!

As to LunarWhatever, you can go f*ck yourself.

No VerticalE, how about you go and fuck yourself. Vindictive a-hole. You haven't earned any bashing rights here on this board.

I believe him...

Firstly, until you have a working alpha/beta whatever, in your hands, DO NOT SEND THIS GUY ANY MONEY.

I am not saying he's not working on a new version of Daedalus, but I am very sceptical. It's not that I believe this can't be done, because we all should know it can.

No technical background or anything else has given me reason to believe this is more than a publicity stunt. Firstly, the only way he could continue work on the leaked beta would be by having the original pre-compiled code. This is not freely available and I see no proof that he has acquired this code. The only thing he could then do is to try porting the PC code of Deadalus. He has provided no technical background or information to any other coder/site that I'm aware of that would agree with and backup his claims.

seeing is very much believing with this, I'm afraid. Sometimes, I think it's better that people shutup and release something when it's ready or at least discuss with other coders or give a locked beta to a few choice website reviewers.

So, a little more technical background or a locked alpha to xbox-scene or anywhere that would confirm this project would be nice. I am very angry though that you would talk about accepting money at this stage, where you have proven nothing.

What you have is a guy that claim something without supporting his claim with proof. It's so fucking obvious I just can't keep my mouth shut about it. And about "earning" bashing rights... GROW THE FUCK UP! I have followed this scene since it first started - only because I don't have as many posts as you etc. doesn't make me less fed up with asshole liars like LunarWhatnot.
