Game cube emulator

[fafa]

Hello,

I wish to build a game cube emulator and I need your
help.

- Do you know if the Hardware registers
mapped to memory have a "privilegied access".
( readable and writable only by the the supervisor )

- Could you show me docs which explain how the
nintendo apis work ?

I downloaded the "GAMECUBE SDK sept 2001" and
the "CODEWARRIOR SDK", but I didn't found anything
talking about the APIs. :huh:

YAGD is incomplete and shows only the pointers and the
names of these APIs. lain:

thanks

I'm Sorry If I Seem A Little On The . . . Broad Side, But . . . You Are Crazy To Wish To Do This And When You Say You Wish To Build One Does That Mean You . . . Alone? If So, You Will Be Building For A While. I Applaud Your Efforts, But . . . Yea.

Try google and other gamecube emulator board to gather more information bout it. Don't give up hope yet if you fail to find any,as failure is the part of success and well it's obvious ppls might criticize bout it but i'm sure u r ambitious on doing it(Emu).Best of luck on makin' the emu!be sure to inform me if you did build it!

Hmmm if you really still need to ask these questions I think you're not ready to code a Gamecube emu (sorry). Coding an emu for a simpler system first will probably be more rewarding in the end.

Anyway to figure out how the API's access the GC hardware use IDA Pro (with ppc support). When setup correctly its almost as easy as reading c code. Thats probably how yagd got its info. And with the devkit you've got everything you need to figure things out yourself.

btw you know its illegal to have the devkit on your hd don't you

greets,

Azimer had done a GCube technical docs side but I don't remember where it was. Search for google and you probably find it! Hope it helps and good luck!

You should probably try another board, this one is for questions about the Dolphin emulator. But in any case, good luck with your coding.
