New Gekko Emu Content (Insider)

[ShizZy]

Hello all-
I'd just like to give a heads up over here of what has been in the works with Gekko. Along with the continuous development of the video plugin, we have been making great progress with the recompiler, as well as audio. With such accomplishments being made, we've decided to start a sort of private insider club in order to shed some light on the project has it's being developed - a privilege given in thanks for those who have donated to the team.

Located on our forums (http://www.gekko-emu.com/forums, go there if you have not registered already ), the insider section offers exclusive content - screenshots and videos of the project (as they arrive, posted on a weekly basis), developer "blogs", compatibility, answered questions, private discussion, and will eventually include project release candidates. Donations are going towards 64bit PCs for the developers, in order to further the capabilities of the project.

Here is but a brief preview of what can be found there right now -



Plus dozens more shots and games Any support given to the project is motivating to us, even if it's just a visit to the site. Thank you!

-The Gekko Team

Yeah, seeing some frame rates is pretty freakin' nice. Tons of screenshots. Not only that, but I love the technical discussion, a lot of in-depth progress description and such.

Should be some live action video up on there soon, too!

Impressive screenshot - I may just have to donate and get access to all the goodies. I'm very anxious to see Gekko's release!

Seems like a worthy endeavor to me, i'm in *donates*

Mind you, I'd donate to just about any project I liked... (Was the first pj64 beta member by donating, Lucky for them I had already been part of the 1964 beta team so meh! )

Hmm, I don't have money but I do have a sister. Can we talk about it?

 

[Sercio]

how would your sister help to code a 64 bit dual core app?

 

[Miretank]

Moral support dude. ;P

 

[Toasty]

No, I think that using one's sister as a bargaining chip would count as immoral support.

 

[smcd]

Dude there's a huge black market for children, it could be the most profitable donation!

@Miretank: send ph0t0z kthx

@All: We've been having some slight slight issues with accounts, sometimes requiring manual activation of donators. (Sometimes their subscription expires the following day, though once we add you manually it's good forever). So if for some reason you donated and don't have access, please please please PM me or post, and it will be fixed within hours.

@ScottJC, looks as though that happened to you. Fixed yah. Chrono will fix the script once he gets back home.

Wow! This is looking better and better. It seems as if every time I leave for a week, I get updates. Its like... you actually like emu coding

Well, I don't really have any money right now, just got accepted by a girl, I get my license in a month, and I don't have a car yet.

Still, nice job. Video looks nice. Also good to hear that the recompiler is finally in the working. For those of you who actually know framerates, I would assume that they are nothing too amazing right now because the dynamic recompiler is still a bit "in the works" if you know what I mean. I don't know for sure, but it would be great to see 64 bit versions of the gekko. I myself use a 64 bit OS, and could use the optimizations.

Gekko Emu Content - Video update

If anyone is interested, Knuckles has posted a video of Gekko running the Zelda Wind Waker Demo past the point where other emulators hang (getting the key) on N'Sider. It's our first video yet, so go take a look
