this completely validates your discouragement of ohle.. :) as a matter of fact thank you.

/me is still smarting over the #emulation64 ban (which was completely pointless, no?) but hey, i'm not a grudge holder, i'll get over it.

congrats u guys, that looks bad ass.

i have a million questions that i won't ask since i read the site and am following your orders. c how nice i can b?!?

/edit WAIT THAT WASN'T A QUESTION! IT WAS JUST RHETORICAL!! /endedit

I must say, i follow the N64 emu scene since the really beginning, I mean, I was there back in '97 looking everyday on the bpoint webpage to see if there was something new about Ultra64.

The biggest news ive seen since that time was on 29th January of '99, it was for sure "UltraHLE" and the Zelda OOT screenshots showing it was running perfectly on a "Decent" computer. Next day I was buying a PII-400 with a 3DFX Voodoo 2 to run it... (hehe I know with that money I could buy 3 bran new Nintendo 64 and 3 zelda cartridge, but man, running Zelda 64 on my PC was a dream come true, im sure you know what I mean ! :D )

Today is a Great day in emulation , someone is taking back the torch that realityman and epsilon put on the side. (Espisially realityman , no offence, but you gaved us false hope) :(

Now, I probably have the same enthousiam that I had 5 years ago, when bpoint told the emulation scene that a N64 emulator was possible. ( Not a lot of people beleived him at that time )

So keep up your great work on UHLE2!

Hope to hear your progress soon !

THANKS for making my useless life less boring.

It's still using hle and it will always use it. Without hle, ultrahle wouldn't be what it is. The goal of this project is to push hle approach as far as it can be, we know it has its limitation and that it's hard to have very high compatibility but what i can say you is that it can still be improved much :)

If you cant see the page, go to your local library or a friends house, and check from there. If its fake, its of no importance to you, and you shouldnt be beasting, wanting to check the page.

Stez

RatTrap
October 19th, 2002, 20:54
:(.. i had SO many hype plans.. to bad we had to announce early..

just some tiny info:

ppl seem to be getting confused about a few things.. i've read thru all emu sites i know *phew*.. my eyes are gonna need a break in a litle while.. anyways.. most sites are getting confused about this or that.. the worst thing is confusing UltraHLE2 to any emulator released by epsilon or RM.. i know there where alot of rumours about UHLE2.0 back in the day.. i can asure you.. this whole project is based on the source of the UHLE source that was leaked some months ago..

another thing:.. the website and it's looks and the url is not permanent.. it will most probably change all together.. and even the name of the emu might change slightly :p..

we are 8 coders.. but i don't code personally on the emulator.. i've been coding a "massive coderz-paradize-a'la source forge"-ish type thing.. only it's made for closed source atm only.. and it's not open for the public.. for this crew of 7 guys.. and i was invited to make them a website and some other arrangements to support these 7 guys coding on the actual emu..

Domi asked me if i wanted in on the page (yes i did make that thing Redah :p.. i pulled it off in about 2 hours btw).. because as we see it i am part of the group.. i had no idea we where anouncing.. i had been away most of the week..

info about the project:
it started not so long after the source was out.. so you can say it's been about 4 months in development by now.. believe me.. there is A LOT that has been donne.. (if i type it all out.. it would get longer then my usual posts :p).. hehe actually.. i don't know half of what's been donne.. i know it's a whole lot though.. but since i am a busy person i can't trully keep up with these 7 guys :p..

also.. believe it or not.. i haven't tried it yet :).. i know what's generally been donne.. and i've seen many screens.. i think we might post some screens now and then in here.. if anything i have a bunch and i somewhat consider them public domain :p.. since i don't even have a beta :).. but the same rules are set of course.. no beta begging.. no screens begging.. no email spamming.. no "can i be in on the project" asking.. believe me.. we have enugh ppl in there allready..

now please make sure ppl don't make mistakes in other websites about this project.. if you see a mistake point them here or tell em how it is.. also.. plz don't bother us :p..

l8rz..

Theres no need for one, they are going to port the glide into directx and openGL i belive and u should have the option to choose it :) also it should support plugins soon too :) this is 2 good to be true :D

it does work in mozilla 1.1 for windows, however, there are some issues:

1- Cause Internet Explorer do a Great job !
2- You just show us there is a glitch problem on the web site of UHLE2 annoncement, so I think this is probably not the only problem we will encounter if we install it.
3- Im a Microsoft addict ! (Sorry all you MS Hater, but no one does it better than MS, just look Windows XP, its damn stable , compatible, convivial, easy to use and setup, cant say so of Linux or any OS currently available)
4- Since Netscape get bought buy AOL, I dont want to ear it anymore(same for ICQ and Winamp)

Enough reason to stay with my good old IE ?! (By the way IE7 will be the last version of this wonderfull software, it will be slowly replaced by MSN Explorer. Good news, Bad news.. who know)

To not support PNGs, a broswer would have to be truely ancient. I'm pretty sure even IE/Netscape 3.0 supported it, and they were released in 1996!

Oh, and reason 1 to use Mozilla: IE has screwed up PNG handling. They're a few shades too dark in IE. Mozilla is fine.

guys.. bout browsers and pngs etc.. start a thread at "website corner" and i'll educate you untill i get bored :p.. unless you are afraid of what facts i might show you ;)..

about having trouble to check the site:
if you can't see the page.. i'm not sure what to do or tell you.. it's rens domain and it's somewhat temporari afaik.. i might move a copy of the anouncement site to my site tonight.. but i can't promiss anything (most probably won't happen).. i'm in the process of changing domain names.. (not sure if i'll change though.. abit indecisive about it).. www.cloudedsky.net (the egg has been there for quite sometime i might add :p.. )

about the emu:
yes afaik.. compatibility has progressed a whole lot.. and it still is.. HLE.. also zilmar spec has been added.. just like stated on the announcement..

and.. i've seen in some other boards ppl are saying pj64 and 1964 have a new competitor.. and starting some small yet ridicules emu-wars.. i myself don't see uhle2 as a competitor with any other n64 emu that i know of.. since they are very diferent types of emulators.. uhle2 is as pure HLE as it is possible to get in a n64 emu.. those 2 others are'nt..

Don't worry it really make sense, and you can't imagine how much discussions there was concerning the name... Each ones had its pros and its cons. You can sum up the problem by, people need to know that it's based on original authors work, and they also need to know that we are not affiliated to the original authors.... Well i guess we can discuss about it forever and finally we have ended to something very simple, ultrahle 2, that's all....

but the beta 1.5 version of PJ64 wasnt by the original authors, and most of us treated it like it was official, i'd say its morealess official, look how much work Dom has done to SupraHLE and the other authors respect UltraHLE and are going to give credit to the original authors, so why shouldnt it be official?

It can't, won't and shouldn't be official unless RealityMan or Epsilon give it the thumbs up. Without their approval, anything that happens with UltraHLE is unofficial.

But who cares as long as we can play games :D

well i highly doubt Realityman gives a fuck if he deleted the source and never released his work, which was proabably fake. Duno about epsilon though i heard that 95% of the work was by him on the site that leaked the source

Hehe, working out the name has been a problem :P its hard to decide what to use when you dont wish to create confusion and stuff like that, change the name completly and some people will think your ripping off the source totally, dont change it and people will think its an official version! Ahhhh! :p

But as others have said the project itself is the main thing at the moment, we can work out the name closer to release time I suppose.

And about it being fake or not I guess you guys are going to just have to trust us and wait :) It's hard to prove when we can only really show screen shots at the moment!

D@mn how can I miss this announcement! :D

As others have eloquently put it, UHLE 2.0 will be great and it will enliven the N64 scene once again. As for the name of the project I have the following suggestions:

I think it's better to keep the version number.

UltraHLE Plus 2.0
UltraHLE Pro 2.0
SupraHLE 2.0 (depends on the team or Dom's opinion on this)
SurrealHLE 2.0
RebornHLE 2.0
ExtremeHLE 2.0

Any other suggestions?

Also, I was thinking if UltraHLE can be ported to Linux with OpenGL Graphic and SDL Audio support later on. That way it can be enjoyed by more people out there, myself included. But I guess it's better to focus on getting UHLE 2 on Windows out first. Thanks to every one on UHLE 2 team. :)

It will be another amazing achievement since ePSXe in the PSX emu scene.

yup, fair enuff, ill shut me mouth :cool: . my only concern was that if someone unknown right now would release a modified version of pj64 and call it pj64 1.6, ppl would get pissed off, blah blah. just because these guys are respected in emulation doesnt give them the right over other ppl to claim a project is theres. but i dont wanna start some massive debate, as u all say, the project is wats important, its only WIP, and things can change. just hope u guys can understand where im coming from. anyway, good luck, it should be exciting to see how far u can take HLE. :D

Smiff
October 21st, 2002, 17:13
yeah i'm afraid i did have an unfortunate run in with Gent & Witten after i got wind of a PJ64 v1.5.. it's a difficult thing because sadly many users can't be trusted to work out (or care) which pseudonymn is attached to which bit of which release... when you've put a lot of work into something (and are honest) you do care about being credited correctly, which is as much about not taking credit where you shouldn't as getting it where it's needed.

imho your about box should be something like

"UltraHLE 2.x by [new team]
based on UltraHLE v1.0.0 by [original authors]"

so it's clear that 1) the new version is not from E & R and 2) you have use E & R's source (both things being equally important imho).

or at least that's what we (Project64 team) were going with until we actually got the teams together and it changed.

Tri-Force
October 21st, 2002, 18:28
well supra HLE has not mention of Ep an Re but everyone knows that it was based on their work. i understand the whole credit where credit is due point of view but this is the legendary UltraHLE were talking about here. Everyone already KNOWS that it's based on their leaked code. and changing the name too much might be a bad idea only because some people who don't frequent the boards wont know that its the next comming of the legend (what the hell am i talking like this for) however i DO agree with smiff. put the whole project based/coded by note at the bottom like were Re and Ep had it in the first place.

October 21st, 2002, 18:32

RatTrap
October 21st, 2002, 19:21
honestly.. i feel smiff is right.. and this is somethingthe guys allready have in mind.. they've considered the crediting of both this new group and the original group.. it's really dificult though.. to decide what to do with 7 guys you know.. but as an individual of course it's easier to just think this way and make it seem like the right thing to do.. just know that there's 7 guys in this project.. and not all think alike / agree on the same names / ideas :p..

but yeah.. the name has been changed allready.. and it has been set.. it won't be reveiled untill it's out though.. so you guys will just have to wait and see :)..

We have no plans on releasing the source but for many reasons.

1) UltraHLE is not open source in the first place
2) We do not want many people working on their own versions with very minor fixes of uhle using our source. If we did, we wouldn't have made an announcement.
3) Why do you need the source anyway? :P

But if we do quit the project (I'm sure you can't wait j/k) we most likely will release the code.

I duno, some one may decide to port it to Xbox or another next generation console (i hope, dc, i dont care about the ram, id be happy playing small n64 games like mario64 on dc :))

And secondly Thats a good thing, releasing the source if you quit, wish the nemu ppl would of done that :plain2:

If the source code is released, someone might take up the project and add support for the next generation of computers or for a version of windows that doesn't support older windows programs.

Is support of the Azimer Audio spec going to be added?
