would it be possible to port yabause to the XBOX?
There is a PSP port of it that is using dynarec cores for the SH-2 processors and I wonder if that would give any hope for the XBOX as well.
thanks

Cassini/Saturn - While technically the source is available for this Saturn emulator, it is primarily one (very) large assembly file which looks like it was created by simply running the GiriGiri EXE file through a disassembler. Porting x86 assembly to the XBox is not generally a problem, but in this case the code makes all sorts of calls to Windows GDI routines that are not implemented in the XBox SDK. This means that in order to port it, I'd have to implement those API calls myself or try to hand-edit the assembly file. Both of those tasks would be extremely tedious and therefore this project is not something that particularly interests me.
In that long post he never once said the Xbox couldnt handle the Saturn, or that it would run too slow or anything.... which means there may be hope. The only problem would be finding a coder who wants to port Yabause or other.
If the PSP can run it with 333MHz CPU and 32MB of RAM then I would hope the Xbox

How is the yaubuse performance on the PSP?
How is the compatibility in yaubuse?
I've seen dynamic cores really speed things up so you'd be surprised.. But the Saturn was like a mish mash of different processors. Just think 32x times 5..

I highly doubt the xbox has enough cpu power to run a Saturn emulator. Don't hold your breath...
I wouldn't hold my breath on someone porting it, but the Xbox is more than capable of running at least some games as good or better than current ports
Xbox
Processor: Intel Pentium III 733 MHz
RAM: 64 MB of DDR SDRAM @ 200 MHz
Graphics Processor: 233 MHz nVidia NV2A
Systems that have a Yabause port
Dreamcast
Processor: Hitachi SH4 RISC 200 MHz
Graphics Processor: 100 MHz PowerVR2 CLX2
PSP
Processor: MIPS R4000-based 333 MHz
RAM: 32 MB, or 64MB in the 2000, 3000, and PSPGo models.
Wii
Processor: IBM PowerPC 729 MHz
Graphics Processor: ATI Hollywood 243 MHz
I would say if there was an Xbox port it would be miles ahead of the Dreamcast port, and the PSP.... Wii might be the same
Food for thought

I can only find a few videos on youtube. Some run smooth, others are quite slow.
The other problem is that yabause hasn't had much activity lately (maybe dead).
The PSP porting author said that he designed the recompiler to be portable to other target architectures. He also has in mind some other possible optimizations since the actual SH2 compiler is in fact a Mips compiler instead. If you ask him kindly he might reply to performance/compatibility questions as well.
Another interesting point is that mame is currently developing a "universal dynamic recompiler". Don't know if it could be re-used for all the Saturn CPUs (at least SH2 and 68K).

I say this because a PSP is less powerfull than a Xbox, so maybe testing Yabause in a PSP is not enough: if Yabause goes bad in a PSP, it does not mean that Xbox is not capable of doing it. Besides, I know that there are newer models named "PSP Slim" and "PSP Lite" with 64 MB RAM, but I don't know anyone who owns them.
The question about testing programs in a Virtual Machine to see whether a program can be ported or not, is valid for every program (not only Yabause). I am thinking about future emulators (Nintendo DS emulator for Xbox?) or programs (Flash players?)

Even then, if more than a handful of games were playable on the xbox then it would be yet another great addition to the scene. Many people think that the xbox is dead, but look at how much attention hyper eyes port of doom has brought! This may yet be the last emulator ported to the original xbox, who knows.
Post by: hcf on September 23, 2010, 03:06:00 AM
Speaking seriously... I like to think that there are lots of emulators still coming. For example an emulator of the PC-9801 maybe will be feasible in the future
And even I have faith in having a Flash player in the future. I have seen recently some implementations of Flash based on Javascript (for example smokescreen). Maybe in the future the code can be ported from Javascript to C# and compiled for a Xbox. Who knows...
The Xbox is far from dead!!!

But, what can be emulated anymore? Dreamcast and PS2 are out of reach IMO.
Long life to xbox1 emulation scene.
Post by: Q3A-TaNK on September 29, 2010, 04:07:00 PM
Atari Jaguar (Virtual Jaguar)
NEC PC-FX (Mednafen)
ZiNC or psxMAME (PSX Based Arcade Board)
A better PSX Emulator if possible (PCSXbox is pretty frustating to setup and crashes quite abit and cant handle CDs nor Redbook Audio games too well)
Saturn to me would be possible but might not be worth it. Look at the Yabuse port for the Wii. SSF is the best Saturn emu to date IMO but still needs a hefty CPU/GPU combo to run efficiently. Also i dont think SSF is open source also. 3DO would be another system i like to see but once again FreeDO is the only emu and its not open source. FreeDO seems to be dead since 2004 with the updates.

I would be happier if any energy that might be put towards the saturn be put towards improving n64 and ps1 emulation instead
Post by: guybird on October 01, 2010, 10:31:00 AM
Fighters Megamix/Fighting Vipers/Virtual Fighters - Probably the main reason to have the emu ported
Nights
Daytona Usa's - Eh nowadays, but still the Mario for the Saturn
Panzer Dragoon's
Sonic Jam - Yes this has seemingly been ported a 1000 times across different consoles, but apparently it has some features that aren't present in many of the current sonic collections
Sonic R
Virtua Cops
Virtua Racing
And last but not least, Space Hulk Vengeance Of The Blood Angels (Psx versions works, but all in game speech is garbeled
the superior 3do version obviously has no emu to play it on, and although its rumored to exist, I can't find a Dos version to work with DosXbox)So there you go, sure not 20+ games after you take out all the psx and FBA compatibile games that made the Saturn awesome, but still some good games. I'm sure there's some good/obscure RPG's that purists could probably point out too. While we're at it, lets look at some of the other non ported systems based on the # of good games they have:
Atari Jaguar
Aliens Vs Predator - That's it folks! Good Night! Seriously though that's pretty much it, and thanks to SirLemonHead, we have the vastly superior PC version to play now.
Dreamcast
Jeez, lets see here:
Soul Calibur
NFL/NBA 2K's
Sonic Adventures
Godzilla Generations (Jap only release, yes I loved it as it was one of the few games I had on my imported Jap only DC so sue me)
Fighting Vipers 2
Power Stones
Resident Evil Code Veronica
Typing Of The Dead
Virtua Cop
Virtua Fighter
A lot of CPS3 games (Jojo, SF3, CVS, etc) although we have emu for those
Lots of SNK Games
Once again, Psx/FBA compatible games really eat into its main attraction list
3DO
Captain Quazar
Jurassic Park Interactive
Plumber's Don't Wear Ties - Eh? Eh? No takers? Ok fine
Return Fire - Available for Psx but come on, made the 3do an awesome system
Star Wars Rebel Assualt - Probably looks much better than the Sega CD version
And finally Space Hulk!
So yeah, when it comes down to it, it would be great for completeness to have these systems running great, but really in order of total number of good games, it looks like Dreamcast, Saturn, 3do then Jaguar. And the Dreamcast will never run on the xbox's specs, Saturn maybe, 3do Maybe, and Jaguar IS ported although it was a proof of concept and ran like shit according to Xport/Lantus/Whoever ported it (its been awhile).

I´m still waiting for my Xbox to arrive, as I bought it specifically for the awesome emulators. I am a bit concerned about DOS though, seeing that I never used DOS and I expect configuration and loading games might require more than the selection of a ROM file console emulators do. And I guess the fear of having to meddle with DOS commands is keeping other people from even trying.
What are some of the games you think are much superior to their console ports btw? I don´t know that many DOS-games beside the adventures that can be played via Scumm VM also and fps like Doom or Duke Nukem, but those got equal or improved console-ports in later years.
Overall, I am really thankful for the emulator-development for the Xbox. I love the Lynx for example, and as little regarded as the system is having a Lynx-emu is actually a main reason for my interest in the Xbox. It is great that even systems of little popularity did get emulation treatment on the Xbox so far.
In the same vain is my wish for a Jaguar emulator. I know that many people don´t care, but there is also the little hope that having a decent emulator available somewhere actually might attract a few people to try it out instead of just repeating the common phrases about how much it sucks. I believe many of these people never really played on the system, and one reason is the lack of any decent emulator even on PC. Eventhough the Jaguar´s software overall is below average, there are some gems to be played and I think it would be nice to have them more readily available.
And damn, I sold my Jaguar CD... but I´d love to play the beta of Black Ice/White Noise for example, a cyberpunk adventure that was really extremely promising.
But I do understand that it is probably just too much work for the few people who will actually use it. But that´s the destiny of the Xbox I guess; it is long out of stores now, and the difficulty to obtain both infos on homebrew (it´s just too much^^) and the problem of most stuff only being available via FTP won´t help attract many new users I´m afraid.

Back to Dos though. For those not in the know, DOS was the old Microsoft OS before Windows, and was nothing but command line. Being a PC and not a console, there were TONS and tons of games ported to it. At the time, most popular games were ported to it alongside consoles, minus the obvious Mario & Sonic games (At first anyhow). In wasn't until the later half of the 90's when Windows 95 came out that fewer games were being ported to it until it was discontinued around '98 I think. So the games you have on DOS are very varied, there's a lot of very early games that were never ported to a console (Corridor 7, ComQmander Keen, original Duke Nukems), then you get into games that were on every system (Aladdin, Street Fighters, etc in the Genesis, SNES days), then you get into cd based games that were only available on 3do at first, but eventually made their way to the Playstation and Saturn once they were released (Gex, Return Fire, Battle Chess, the original Need For Speed), and then finally the final days when Windows had taken over there were a handful of awesome games (Blood, System Shock, C&C). So there are literally 1,000's of games, and we've been using it to fill in the gaps of games never ported elsewhere, and in some cases where the pc version was much much better (Lemmings, Aladdin, XCOM, etc). Here's a handful of games that are the "cream of the crop" so to speak:
Corridor 7 - Ran on the Wolf3d engine, very good doom/wolf game
Battle Chess series - I knew this from the 3do, but there's 4 games/styles in the series
Old MECC games - Most of the games we knew and loved from the Apple II days in school were ported to dos, so Oregon Trail, Word Munchers, and other similar educational games like Carmen Sandiego are all here
Blood - One of the best shooters of its time, still plays very well today
Elder Scrolls 1 & 2 - Pretty good games, but obviously not Morrowind/Oblivion level
Kings Quest series - Old RPG's
Leisure Suit Larry series
Might & Magic/AD&D series - Tons and tons of old RPG's here
Raptor Call of the Shadows - Great 1942/Strikers style shooter
Sim City's - Yes these have appeared on consoles here and there, but the DOS versions are much much better
Space Hulk - The original (not the 3do/Saturn/Psx version which was #2) wasn't ported to any console
Star Wars series - Tie Fighter, Dark Forces, etc
Ultima series
Wing Commander series
Warcraft 1 & 2
X-Com
System Shock - Bioshock predecessor
Command & Conquer
And yes the current DosXbox is a pain to configure, and unreliable, but Madmab has added so many new features to it, it won't even look the same anymore. Once we finish tidying up what we have, we'll release our pack of preconfigured gamesmedia as an xtras pack, and hopefully, adding new games from that point on will be easier for people. Phew! Lots of typing!

* Sega Rally Championship: a great racing game, only ported to Windows
* Sega Worldwide Soccer: a great soccer game, only ported to Windows and with a later version in Dreamcast
* Saturn Bomberman: probably the best multi-player bomberman ever made, but only available in Saturn
* Dragon Force: what a game of strategy!! Ported to Playstation 2
* Bust-a-move 3: this was ported to PSX, but it does not work properly in the PSX emulator (the music crashes)
And so on... So having a Saturn emulator would be very nice indeed (if possible)

Aladdin? How was the DOS-version much better? The MD-version was quite excellent, hard to imagine how anything save a higher resolution could be better...especially controls.
Aladdin is one of my all time favourite games. Had it on genisis and always loved it... the feeling of playing it in DOS is amazing. The viewpoint is nice and close, the music is of amazing quality. The apple throw is different (I think it makes it a little harder, seems to be loopier, not so straight). And I think that most enemies take one more sword slash to defeat (I could be way off on that one, I am going from memory)
Basically DOS and amiga versions usually used better music files and stuff than their console counter parts (until psx and such came into the picture)
You will definately love the DOS.. Lets not forget Jazz Jackrabbit. A platform game, which incorporates speed with shooting.
DOS all the way.

Blood,
Shadow Warriors,
Carmageddon.
Well, Carmageddon did appear on other machines, but the ports were rubbish, and only the PC version is worth playing (but it's extremely good, though too easy) - I really wish we could play it on the XBox. Shadow Warrior's source code was released by 3D Realms, and thanks to a500 we have a great homebrew port for the XBox (the same with the fantastic Duke Nukem 3D) that even plays user mods, any first person shooter fan on the XBox should have the DN3D and SW ports permanently installed on their hard drives!
Also, Ive not played Alien vs, Predator on the Jaguar, but I have AvP 1 and 2 (PC) and the latest one (XBox 360), and of the three, the original one is by far the best, and the XBox port is great, though still needs some work. I'm still really hoping that SirLemonhead releases an update soon.
And yes, I do wish System Shock 2 was playable on the XBox. I loved the second one (PC), but don't like playing games on a PC.
I wish that FreeDOS had been ported to the XBox. It's open source, so probably could have been, so then maybe we'd be able to play DOS games at full speed, I don't know, instead of having to emulate DOS in DOSBox.
Some other brilliant DOS games that never appeared anywhere else are:
Blood,
Shadow Warriors,
Carmageddon.

We should try to improve on the current emus that need some tweaking like pcsxbox and some of the new madmab emus before jumping the gun and try to port over an entirely new system.

As for Saturn, it's been ported to PSP and Dreamcast which are lower end systems. I haven't seen any tests for it on a machine with near xbox specs, so someone would really have to try it out to be certain. It would be a shame if someone spent all the time porting this to find out it does in fact crawl on older machines.

Oh and yes I had no way of knowing you knew about the xbox resetting the date.
Did it ever cross your mind that maybe the person does not have his xbox hooked up to the net, or using a dash that sets the date off the net, or even has that option activated?
As for the SDK app launcher I'm not even sure if it defaults to setting the date off the net. I run the SDK launcher alot and have numerous files in my "devkit" folders with incorrect dates.

In fact i suppose a project like this may never see the light of day on Xbox due to it's limited (but adequate till now) power, the PS3 offers more power for the modern emu fan.
Lets not argue about the f******g clock n date, lets see if this thing is real and encourage the dev with some positive attitude and help, damn xbox dev's are a bit thin on the ground, let's not scare off any new ones who want to join a small community.
While this thing (if genuine) probably will never run 100% on an xbox it still may have a life span that will cross over to the next generation of homebrew machines ie- PS3.
Food for thought.
Well thats my 10 bobs worth (2 cents, 60 Euros, 20,000,000 yen, whatever)

@YRU please let me kno where i can get my hands on some files to help out, i wanna see how far they have gotten and how i can help. so please send them over or pm me a link, i shattered my femur into 9 pieces in june so i have nothing better to do
@madmab u must have taken my comment about posting like an ass personally and i didnt even mean to direct that towards u bc ur post directed toward me was 100% valid and was said respectfully, the ass was directed toward wiener not u. should have typed up my post a lil better. and if the xbox is not hooked up to the net then the RSS feed wont be visible.
@wiener no harm done man im not sensitive i just dont like being talked down to bc of other peoples posts when im just trying to add to the discussion.
I hope the video is recent and that yabause will be coming to the black box before the scene completely dies for the console that made everything possible in the modern gaming world. but the fact of the matter is that my xbox was originally modded back in june of 03 which is almost a decade ago. Yea, its been that long. As far as i know almost all work on the black box has stopped in favor of the next gen consoles where the limits of the machine are not yet seen. All i was ever questioning was how long has this video been floating around for and if this is truly creditable and is happening right now why is there so little info about it, few people who know about it, and no ask for help? no testers? no questions on past coding efforts to try and get over the obvious difficulty in emulating saturn? i mean my computer has difficulty emulating saturn
everything i say is open for discussion so please fire away

You seem to have alot of things to say about things and you have had a modded box that long...
I am just wondering why you only have 19 post and only joined in 2009...?
or have you just been leaching that long..?

I hope he's willing to add the PSP-branch dynarec core (if not done already). That should give a decent boost to performances.
It looks very good to me.
And for PSX emulation, PCSX (PC version) is getting improved every day. Check their progress at emuforums.

Don't you think the time has come for you to finally let the cat out of the bag? I mean, things are getting pretty obvious now...
Come on madmab, give us a release date already

either way i want those files i dont care who wrote them or when it was written or anything. until then wait for the official thread to start here or search for the next video release.
if u really want a saturn emulator that bad its time to blow the dust of the notebooks, break out the text books and start coding. if u wanna see the best of saturn on the black box i believe ssf is the key to that whether or not its possible to port it is another thing and i guess nobody will know until i try

the person who uploaded the video and says they r coding the emulator, username Emperor Coconut, says that they r going to try for a year to get everything working including 3d. They also stated that there is no official site or thread at this moment but the official thread will be at xbox-scene.com in the future. so by the end of september at the latest we should see something official. Hopefully they release whatever data they have because that is the beginnings of a working emulator even if the 3d doesnt work the 2d games looked to work good. the problem with the 3d might be with yabause coding itself and maybe another emulator's coding, like SSF or Cassini, can be added or modified to fix the 3d issues.

Well then what are you waiting for? Get to work!
However i don't think you'll come very far with any Saturn emulator other than Yabause.
I might be wrong, but as far as i know Yabause is the only open source Saturn emu out there.
It would be cool to see at least the 2D part running in full speed. Let's hope the author (or whoever posted these videos) will keep us updated with even more footage
