IS GC emulation dead?

[TheBuzzer]

Is it dead? It seems like there is no emulators comming out for gc?

 

[Agozer]

No. Just because there are no visible signs of activity doesn't mean that the whole GC emulation scene is dead.

 

[Sercio]

Is not really dead!
Just for this Computergeneration!
GC emulation needs a high end computer specs which today are very expensive so not everyone has it!
but in 1-2 years it will become at standart and gc emulation will be able!
At this time dolphin are usefull to play Gamecubegames but....
its not stable enough and too slow for this generation of computers!

zomg no info on progress! end of the world! we're all going to die!!!

 

[yegosimo]

yeah i think the same as Sercio
for example, i cannot emulate GC on my computer, but if you have like a super-computer (P4 3.2GHz, 2GB RAM, 512MB Video) then it will easily run.
the problem is that GC emulation is not dead. it is just in its early age.
GC emulation, in human terms, would be like a 2 year-old baby, and PJ64 would be like a 30-year old man.

30 Year Old Man!!!:blink: Woah! I always though Nintendo 64 emulation was a 42 year old dog!

Well, that explains alot.

I don't think my computer is ready for GC emulation T_T

If you poke around you'll find out that Gekko is in development, however, all of the developers have 2+Ghz systems with fancy new graphics cards. But considering what you are trying to emulate, such speeds are required.

Please keep in mind as emu authors get older, they take on more and more real world responsibilities. Things like Gamecube emulation aren't a priority anymore. This is where new younger talent is needed.

u guys can't retire i won't let u ;P

don't forget (i already mentioned that in another thread) that there is not much progress in pc cpu speed the last few years... n64 emulation was in a time we waited a year and buyed a cpu which was twice faster... my friend buyed a computer two years ago with a 3ghz cpu, i think it is still called a fast one today!

I can guarantee emails of that sort will be ignored en masse.

I don't think that we'll need next-gen computers to emulate gamecube games - it's just a matter of time and code optimization

 

[ShizZy]

And a little less laziness maybe

And a little less laziness maybe

Now that your not with that one chick, maybe you can focus more time on other, more important things. Like school, and family

 

[t0rek]

Threads like this one, only bother the emu authors and then delay things even more

 

[Azimer]

Threads like these don't do anything... they don't delay or motivate. They are just a steaming pile of don't.

Whats about Fires and ector (creators) ? Are they even looking in this forum or not? I guess not because i didnt see him ever in this forum. Maybe im too new to see a post from him
