Since the first announcement of Dolphin, the GameCube emulator (yet to be released) that's often mentioned at Emulation64.com with exclusive screenshots and videos, has received a lot of attention. Therefore, we now bring you the Dolphin forum, where you may leave feedback and state your questions. My good friend icepir8 has been assigned moderator, more moderators are to be added later. Thanks to icepir8 for this wonderful idea for setting up the forum, it's really needed. :D

Welcome, everyone! :)

and why's icepir8 (who doesn't seem to be working on tr64gl since some time...) the moderator o_O ;)
maybe we get a linux port of dolphin one day :P

icepir8 volunteered as moderator for this forum, and who could do it better than an experienced programmer like him? :)

I am still working on TR64Ogl and TR64. There is just sooooo little time for the fun things right now.

But Dolphin rox. And every time I turn around there is new progress. :)

Hope it gets to the point to be release soon.

Open your mind - Open your source ;) :whistling :P :blink:

[GogoTheMimic]

Nifty. :D *gets comfy* Something tells me this will be the happening place in the future. *nod*

[Modem]

I can't really fathom how much better a gamecube game can look with gamecube V.S. PC right now, but then again, everyone pretty much thought the same with N64 V.S PC back in '96. I love my wind waker, but I'd love it even more if I could play it at twice the resolution. ^_^ Can't wait for it! :D

[revl8er]

yeah it will be nice to play gamecube games on pc, but it will require a pretty powerful pc.

[vleespet]

I wouldn't be suprised if the author of Dolphin = Icepir8.

Martin, I'm sure you know more, and you could see his ISP in the chat, so don't hide it any longer :P.

[blight]

If one wants to stay anonymous he shall cuz otherwise nintendo might try stopping them or am i wrong...? :icecream:

Nope, wrong. I wish I could take credit for Dolphin, but I can't.

[Remote]

I'm pretty sure most of the people connected close to emu64 knows who it is but as long as he / she / them doesn't want to reveal themself I can wait :D

It's like Heiniken, worth waiting for.. :P

[Eagle]

For those of us who have been here for quite a long time, its not hard to venture an educated guess as to who the author is. I'd be willing to bet I know who it is.

[Remote]

I'll take you up on that bet :P I think I have a pretty good hunch but I've been wrong before.. ;)

[Burnpro]

looking at the progress of the emulator i wouldnt be surprised if the main author is jabo and/or smith... they know what they are doing so i guess is someone that has already made an n64 emu before...

I dont know, I think Jabo is content to continue with JNES and his plugins for N64 and while Smiff is great with his website and the INI I'm not sure he has a lot of programming experience (I could be wrong, but I'm sure he will tell us). As for Zilmar (whom you didnt mention) I dont believe he will do another emulator. The last time I talked to him, he was quite burnt on the idea. I had somebody else in mind and Remote knows who my best guess is cause as soon as he saw my post he PMed me with the name of who I thought it was.

[Teamz]

here's a hint: it's someone very talented with graphics

I know it seems to be a "small" hint but it can narrow down the list ;)

[Trotterwatch]

I am pretty much 100% certain I've known who the authors are since day 1 :) If I'm eventually proved wrong I guarantee I will admit it. I don't wanna contribute to speculation though in the forum.

[PhoenixA1]

Is Dolphin really in development, if it is, why so much mystery about it?
PCSX2 now is emulating almost like Dolphin, and CXBX is already in the level of Dolphin.

Man how would I love to download it, just to see for myself.

Of course it is in development, haven't you followed the progress lately? It's probably being developed harder than most other emulators out there (well except 1964 maybe :P)

The author is anonymous, and does not wish to release the emulator until it's ready.

[Remote]

Can you confirm if it's one author or several authors? /me nozy

[Eagle]

I don't wanna contribute to speculation though in the forum.

Ditto, thats why I havent actually come out and said who I think it is ;)

[icepir8]

well it's not LightKnight...... :P :pirate:

lol you cant blame the guy though right ? :P

I mean its looking abit Icarus at the moment.

I have a feeling he means like Icarus (The Dream Cast Emulator) its all show but no release :)

I seriously don't think this is the case this time, and hope not.
As the whole Icarus affair was a terrible thing to do to the public wanting to try it so much.

Hi Ice btw long time no chat, hope alls well with you.
Eagle: wth you doing up gone past 1am :o

[SculleatR]

Remote: 2 authors

as always stated its gonna be released when its ready, which
is usually up to the ToDo list.

[icepir8]

Well, All I can Say is that this Author has a good track record. :)

[mainframe19]

i say just wait till they can get it going faster!

than it will me more fun to use for every one!

what i want to know is what are the min. specs for a emu like this?

meaning will it be able to run on a geforce4 card?? and what is the min. memory? 512mb or 1.1gb?

and cpu speed?

[CpU MasteR]

Here is a universal answer for this...

Unkwown :D

I'd concur, Zilmar seemed heavily burned by he whole project 64 experience once it went public, and smiff hasn't done much coding but is brilliant at pretty much everything else.

Patience is a virtue, and like gent said I highly doubt this will be developed and then not released

[[vEX]]

Well he/she/them are progressing nicely, can't wait to see more progress :)

[Hyper19s]

yes the dolphin is progresing very nicely. And a lot of people have a very good geuse of who the author is.
I have a guess. But seriously this guy is good.

[onemustfall]

What the coder/programmer of Dolphin has done so far is awesome. I can't wait to see the final working version.
