Post by: SpiGGy on November 28, 2004, 01:12:00 PM

The current PS2, GC, DC and other emulators aren't even that good right know as far as I've seen in public releases, so you shoulden't get your hopes up about seeing them on an xbox2 either. PSX and N64 emulation is hardly that good at this point, you've really got to be kidding yourself if you expect to see a PS2 or DC type emulator on a near-future xbox system.

Is really just speculation on anyones part and we should try to be optimistic and just wait until E3 when they announce the PS3 & XBOX 2.

I could go on for days about rumors on both these machineses:

Hard drive -bo hard drive
price

You name it and we could make a thread about it

You sir, are not going anywhere until you finish off a few of those projects. XSNES9X, Duke 3D-X, NeoCDSDL-X are all in need of some love. So kindly sit back at your desk and crack on.

And that goes for the rest of you too!

The reason I made this topic was because we hardly even see updates on older Emus now. And I thought maybe people think Xbox has done as good as it can do now, or maybe can only do a bit more, but not anything major like we have seen in the past.

Because the Mame updates have just about dried up now, and also surreal 64 doesn't look like it's coming out now either.

So because Surreal v2 isn't out now, it won't ever come out? You need to reconfigure your logic.

The lamers are the problem. They have pushed all the development underground. I'm sure that stuff will become public again once all the retards have moved on to something else. For example:

GIMME XBOX EMULATORRZ FOR PS3, PLS.

Back in 1994, I played a "virtual reality" Doom and Wolfenstein.

Sega World in Vegas had headsets and gloves with Doom and Wolfenstein.

What can I say? I got a bit bored!

I do still have a tinker with the code from time to time though. But the version I'm working on is horribly out of date. It really needs starting over.

I might look again at it sometime in the future, got some other things I want to do first though.

Yeah you should start on that again... When you first said you were porting it I was over the moon, but then you said you couldn't be bothered...
I will give you a hug if you port it.

I don't know if there's a PC emulator for N-Gage, but I'm pretty sure that no one with the skill to make or port an N-Gage emulator for Xbox is even remotely interested.

I hear ya there.. I tried my other emulators like Atari 2600 for the first time the other day. There's always hope for new coders out there,... but one never knows.

while these forums can get a bit trying in terms of the morons around - its not the morons fault - nor Surreal

people get bored , people move on and find new interests/hobbies - two years ago i was really excited about xbox development..now theres barely any interest..especially once you realise your pratically coding on windows enviroment anyway (which is what i do as a regular job)

ive actually become more of an end user..im actually starting to play games (Halo 2 mainly) and play with emulators which i didnt bother with otherwise

Does that mean we will get one last newly compiled Surreal or does it mean it will never come?













It's sad to see but all good things come to an end.

lantus is not anymore in the surreal v2 development...

(correct me lantus if im wrong)

oDD is doing the work.

and he told me he was very interested in that...so keep hope alive.

and play other emus like lantus or

oDD is doing the work.

lantus told us that months ago.  at this point, his end is done.  
and didn't lantus say that a compiled Surreal v2 was oDD's decision?  why are people asking lantus, then?

I think I agree with the controversial statement that the Xbox Emulation scene is nearing the end of its usefulness.  Do I need another update to a NES emulator?  Or a Genesis emulator?  When most games are playable, and at full speed, I'm happy enough.  I think most people feel the same way, hence the interest on the N64 emulator Surreal; the last great, untamed console system.  (I think.)

And what would the scene look forward to if a full speed, full compatibility N64 emulator on this console generation did come out?  As it is, I only check on the emulation forum section once in a blue moon now anyway.

there isnt even an emulator on the pc that can emulate all the n64 games... like RE2, world racing championship and a few others... the n64 has a long way to go its seems since alot of people who make emulators have lost interest and moved on to other things... why emulate newer consoles when u havent perfected the old ones yet  unsure.gif

good post.
I can never remember a time when emulation as a whole was at it's peak.  Perhaps the release of UltraHLE years back, that was the pinnacle.  It was a real feat, which spun the scene into mainstream gaming.  The fact is, we have loads of games at our disposal. Old ones, new... and yet we cling to the N64 like it's going to miraculously become 100% perfect.

Tearing is ugly dude, 50fps is much better.

Oh, and save up for a new TV.

That is such a lame excuse. It can simply added with one little option (it IS supported by SDL). Running 60hz-games in slow speed is worse than a few graphical artifacts, especially if you're used to play them at normal speeld.

The option should be called "Force games to run at 60hz" or something. Turn it off by default for the people who hate 'tearing', but make sure that people who want/need it can turn it on.

That's all I ask.sad.gif
