As I read the discoussion about mupen cvs i had the following question:

There extits a few plugins for the pcsx and pcsx2 emulator. Are they compatible with yours or do you use a different plugin system??

I thought there should be a defiend plugin system for emulators so that plugins for sound and graphics had not to be done every time e new emulator is programed.

graphics plugins aren't only sending pictures on screen, they are emulating the graphic part of the console and that's different on each console. I'd say the graphic plugin is as complex as the emulator core itself. The same is true to some extend for the other plugins. The fact that they're plugins doesn't mean they are small things We have used a plugin system to split the emulation programming effort in several different parts.

i thought they were only for the output of the graphics.
