neobrain: it's nice to see that the devs. are actually active here. Just out of curiosity what part of the emulator do you work on?

AA. It's his job to break it whenever I'm on vacation.

Just check the changes list on our googlecode page? :p *read: being busy with uni stuff
neobrain: why look at the GoogleCode page when I can read it from one of the actual developers ?

Personal opinions are biased; when I say I'm fixing stuff other people might say I'm ruining the emu by making stuff go slow. When people say some dude sped up everything, I say he broke the emu by making the code base a cruel mess and/or breaking working emulation. When I say I'm fixing bugs in Dolphin's most important video backend (the software renderer), people say I'm wasting time on a useless emu part.
... for what it's worth, that's probably a better answer to your first question than to your second question :p (not that the second question was being serious anyway) 04-15-2013, 07:35 AM

Who do I complain to?
The list: Audio Issues: Delroth or Skid Graphics issues: SonicAdvance1 or Neobrain. Usually Neobrain. Once a year tino (rodolfo). My phone doesn't run dolphin: SonicAdvance1 FIFO: Marcos or Skid. Core: Skid MACOSX: Pauldacheez My GUI looks ugly: Neobrain Options are mysteriously disappearing: Billiard I could actually make this a lot longer if I thought about it. But I won't.

Don't forget shuffle2 and delroth, the guys to kick you from #dolphin-emu whenever you're complaining to anyone :p

Ideally, I imagine that the SW renderer would be the most accurate, so if any one of the accelerated backends doesn't render something correctly while SW does, it helps you to know what's broken. Additionally, I feel you should have something that produces the most accurate results, even if it isn't (the most) usable. If it weren't for the SW renderer in PCSX2, it'd be pretty much unplayable on Linux for all but a few games that actually work with OpenGL. Even a few of the Desmume devs know how important having a good SW renderer is; the OpenGL section is being reworked atm, but SW has almost always provided flawless performance and graphical results. So keep at it neobrain; you're not wasting your time in my book. |
