Amazing work by Hikaru and everyone involved with the N64 Emulator.

Congrats, great job, and keep up the excellent work!

Your fame is well-deserved

How does this patching work? I tried with one patch-program. Which just told me that the xbe didn't contain any media2-flag. I guess I need another patchprogram, what's the name of it?

"What the fuck's the internet?"

Internet is kinda like connected LAN's. It started in the 60's witht the american army. It became a success in the 90's. And now we use broadband. That is like a faster connection.
You use a webexplorer to see the pages, and they are mainly written in HTML, PHP or ASP. That is like different languages for scripts and shit. Do you get it?

No games that dont run on the orig. daedalus are going to run on Hikaru's xbox port since he probably knows nothing much about the n64 at all.

I agree 100% with Cyrus. You can be sure that the majority of people that downloaded the xbox n64 and psx ports today had no idea that the majority of the work was not done by the two people who ported them. But instead the people who spent years (and it really was years) to create the emulators in the first place.

I am willing to say that Hikaru's probably doesn't know all that much about n64 emulation at all. Then again he really doesn't have to. he is only porting it.

I know that if i had have put 3 years of my life into an open source emulator and then have someone use the sourcecode for monetary gain ($2000+ US dollars) I would be pretty pissed. Would wonder why i even bothered making it open source in the first place.

Anyway not having a go at Hikaru or xPort but I think sometimes a lot of people understimate the amount of work that the original developers put into there emulators in comparison to the porters.

OT: Cyrus I can kind of see why you have stayed in the DC scene and not shifted over to xbox development.

Good to see your Icarus coming along. It really has come a long way since i last remeber

.

Ohh and too the guys having a go at Cyrus. Keep in mind. If it wasn't for people like him doing the 'real' coding none of the emulators currently available on xbox would be around.

but yet none of that will stop you from downloading it once its released.

im grateful someone is porting it period.

I am grateful that it is being ported. Heck if it wasn't for the few people who port and the few who develop for the xbox then the scene would be dead. And let's face it there really arn't that many people developing/porting for it.

My point is a lot of people seem to forget that there is a huge difference between porting software and developing it.

And I can definetly understand Cyrus' fustration.

well, I've got to disagree with you on this one man. The reason is this: if the original developer, who knows this emu in-out, wanted the money; all he'd have to do was to port it himself. Easy as that. And,if it's gpl'ed the source still have to be freely distributet. If hikaru changes this, and refuses to release the source-code he's using, he's breaking the law. (not that I see many of the wh0's in here bothering to much about stuff like that).

Anyways, that's my tweo cents.

Well i was bored of the Negativity of the negativity of this thread so i decided to make a replacement intro screen user posted image

I didn't like the basicness of the other skin... I want to see what games i would be missing out on if i didn't have this emu!
And yes some of the games MAY not yet be suported but i believe they will be (that is why i didn't put perfect dark in, i don't think that will be playable.)

edit: had to convert it to a .gif if anyone wants the real thing then post here.
