This is what I get when loading Pong. I don't get any video! I just get the debugger. I need to get me some more stuff to test! Dolwin does look better with each release - now with program icon!

This is so impressive!!! Superb!

Going to try it out later this weekend, great news

This version seems different from the one used for the screenies though: it has no GUI interface (for game loading) nor the quick taskbar in the upper side of the screen. Maybe this is a version without the code needed for commercial games and/or the newest code?

EDIT: I tried something on the v0.0.8 and in fact I can get nothing (not even demos nor Freeloader) to work. Is this an old release and the author got confused when publishing it?

looks like a patch to make freeloader work.... "freeldr.ppf" sounds like a patch alright

Just type run at that dialog it will work then.

Sounds like Evrain is confusing Dolwin with Dolphin

I get this Gay Message When I start it up, Then it wonk start

Ok ok, now I am completely lost. Dolwin isn't Dolphin but there are TWO emulators out there??? :blink: One of them can run everything (maybe even Windows XP without crashes) while the other must be:
a. run from the debugger
b. doesn't work with Frreeloader
Explanations are very much appreciated. Othe question: how you test a not-DOLed game?

sonicadvance: it looks it failed to read the IdentPlugin (plugin spec) function of the PAD plugin...

about freeloader I got it working with the freeloader DOL, not with ISO, in older
versions. Check aboutbox as it says 0.08 for homebrewn debug.

had the same problem when i copied the new version in folder with the old one in it. delete the folder, unpack the new version and it should work.

You might also need to delete registry settings...

btw, f5 is run aswell. And for homebrew stuff, you need to choose the homebrew gfx plugin.

Impressive release!! It runs a few simple 3d demos, but i couldn't get freeloader to work.

Thanks!

I was so frightened by the debugger I didn't know what to do! :happy:

I got it to work! :satisfied

how did you get into that debugger in dolwin008?

You must choose "video plugin for homebrewn" to get graphics.

Yes, emu authors usually talk to each other a bit

Or9 has been the main coder so far, but other people have helped.

So is this GPL'ed? Now or in the future?
