Title: Chihirox Beta1
Post by: BenJeremy on June 05, 2003, 10:00:00 AM
Interesting.

Seems like a trend? Turning apps into dashboards (XBMP, Emus).

Still, pretty cool stuff. I wonder how well the N64 emulation is on this one.

I searched and couldn't find a post on this...i wondered why...sounds like a god dashboard to me...so it has all Emus in 1 and is a dash too? Sounds slick to me...wonder if it works any good and of course how the n64 emu is!

Now that im looking at the newspost in Jap, sorta seems like he said something about a few of XPorts emu's aswell...

And I think all of XPorts Emus are OpenSorce.  wink.gif  wink.gif  wink.gif

Seems like its got a psx emu in it too... user posted image
This seems sweet... on his page he said something about XPORT so i guess this could be a joint project? IT looks sweet to me, i'm going to test it out!

What do you mean by "Joint"? I just think Hikaru is using XPorts sources and puting them into his Dashboard,

I really doubt that XPort and Hikaru are working together on a Dashboard for Xbox... they may be. But I dont think Hikaru speaks any english at all.  wink.gif

Just tried it out... very tidy...shame i don't know japanese, but the thing of interest is the 6th option down is the EMU settings...then go to the one with 64 in the name and you will see there is a choice of options...Dadleus or PJ64!Will report when i have tried out roms!

Ok I did a quick translation...however based on how he wrote it, it sounds as if he's going to integrate the source code from Xport's emulators.  We'll have to wait to see though.  There is other information that can be posted about it later.

Plan to bring in Xport's Hugo/PCSX/Gens/FCE-NES/SMS-Plus/fMSX, and plan used the converted source code.

Quick and dirty, the Xport part is the only obsecure part though...and will be resolved later.

You don't need to store it on your c drive, I have it on my F drive.
As for an English version, the text is stored in the XBE for now, so it'd have to be patched.
I don't feel like doing that for his first beta release of it.  
In the future he'll most likely add English support.

Oh yeah, if you click the right stick down, it takes a screen shot that can be viewed from in the dash.

OK, then how about some screenshots?!??!?

Seriously, send them to me, and I'll host them for a short while, but I'm sure Xantium would be interested in having them for the news page.

ok, it seems you can change the dash music & the backgrounds, but otherwise its pretty much  
useless for now. my 64 roms do not work either. nor do my ps1 bins.

Xport - It is on his site http://www.geocities...y-SanJose/4851/
Go down to the Mail part, about the only part in english. I dont think he speaks much english, maybe you will have to find somone who can translate.

Yeah I missed that the first time - when I glanced at the webpage I thought the links on the right were for the projects on the left.  Silly me.  Hope it's still valid.

Mage - thanks.  I've heard reports that he at least speaks "engrish", though, so things will probably be OK.

Good spot!

It corresponds to the extension below Xbox (XBE) SNES (ZIP and SMC) PCE (ZIP and PCE) GEN (ZIP, GEN and SMD,32x, BIN, ISO, ZSG and RAW) NGP (NGC, NPC and NGC) Emulator function was added to the one for test a little, (EX) from starting is judged with the extension. Processing of the ƒGƒ~ƒ… which is added anew retains the back buffer of the Xbox adjusts the position of the screen by hand, presence of invalidity processing and anti alias of the bi- linear filter, sensitivity of the trigger is as the bit map. (It does not correspond to running fire function, still there is processing of not yet correspondence) * Case of translation we ask to the ƒeƒBƒz, In addition * the file which is inserted in one folder is 2560 or less, * class of the sub directory is below the 256th floor, * as for the ƒ~ƒbƒvƒtƒBƒ‹ƒ^[ the one which is not used is appealing. * As for the color of the PCE it was repaired but, you cannot use the graphic filter,

I don't know if it's possible but i'd LOVE to see some kind of screenshot option so you can take snaps of actual xbox games.
I know he has this in his emulators and it's pretty cool, but i'd really like the ability to take snaps of my xbox games for my website.

long shot, dunno if it's possible but my fingers are crossed.

for some reason i dont think this will EVER happen. You would have to somehow run the games inside of a...................... fuck i dont have a clue and dont think this would ever happen.

you would have to do some sort of indivdual controller key mapping for each game i know that much. and then a ass load more.

if you remember, DOAX beach volleyball had screenshot capability, it was programmed into the .xbe though

so i can be done, just might have to do it for every game you wanna take screen shots of

i too am ready for the new english version of this, looks nice
