I am still new to this emulator, about a week+ since I found it so I don't know how fast or slow things go on. My question is does the actual important things get worked on like the ton of games that don't work, crashes, low frame rates, and so on? I ask this because the updates I have seen like one that removes some acsii lettering or the other that let's you double click to get full screen isn't actually something I am in a huge rush for. I don't mean to sound like I am bashing any of the dev's, updates, or the ones I just mentioned. I know it takes a huge amount of time to get those things working and fixed up so I don't expect to come back tomorrow and find 50 crashes fixed and 100 games working all of a sudden. I am just wondering how often do those things actually get worked on instead of things that really is not needed. As I said this isn't some bashing thread on the emultor or dev's, just a question, so I would appreciate not being insulted. Smile Some people take things the wrong way.

BITCH!! GTFO THE FORUMS! lol jk but EVERY SINGLE ONE of the updates are put into their own revision... like wiki changes and stuff Tongue these are usually easy fixes and the other ones are added once they are finished but usually take a long time. also a fix that fixes super mario galaxy, wouldnt be labeled "super mario galaxy fix" but rather "dsp plugin error fixed" or something

lol yea I wouldn't expect the wii games to be working 100% if the gc games are having issues. I was just wondering because I been finding a number of games that aren't compatible which gets tiring after a while. Then you get the crashes with the ones that do work, lol. So I was just wondering how often or long it is to those updates come out from time to time.

No matter the process, development is development. No matter how small the steps may be.
Coding C++ is not easy, it sux if i do say so myself.
Users do what they want when they want, let them make what little contributions they can.
As for the highstreem Top-Dogs, they make builds on the main page, which are supposedly supposed to be top notch, considering it takes then a whole month to complte the process.

Bottom line, Updates come out everyday

What kind of an emulator would this be if we didn't do so?
The process itself it timeless, but the job inevitably gets done.. Eventually.

Nah it doesn't sound rough or offensive at all. I'm fine. Smile It was just my hope stuff like that does get worked on eventually. Of course I know coding something like that to make the actual game work must be extremely difficult so it wasn't my idea at all to make it sound like one of those threads saying "come on wtf fix something". And for the first question you asked, if it was like that then ti would be like the rest of the broken and out dated emulators out there, lol. But it definitely doesn't look like that at all with updates released every day which is always great to see and very much appreciated by everyone.
