so when are they going to make an emulator that doesnt suck

[MattNF]

project64k's desyncing, constant crashing, and graphics errors are still as dumb as it's ever been. sometimes it takes 15+ minutes just to get a 4 player game started

it's been how many years and we're still using this piece of ****? the community is never going to grow until this gets fixed

 

[malva00]

what about mUpEn?

 

[MattNF]

mupen desyncs as much as pj64k does

 

[Эикельманн [РУС]]

matt, just come play console with me.

Who are "they"? See that's the problem: nobody is gonna save our *** with a miraculous new emu. The only way would be that programmers of this community do something. Unfortunately nobody wants to/can spend so much time on this and that's umderstandable.

 

[The Star King]

What Sangoku. BTW maybe it's just me but it seems like there's been more desynch than usual recently if you play on Galaxy. But I p2p'd tacos for hours and we got no desyncs except at the very end so there you go.

 

[Sangoku]

What what? I'm saying I doubt there will be any new emulator better optimized for online smash unless someone from the smash community does something. Why would random programmers suddenly help us while they have nothing to gain (assuming they knew we had a problem first...)? Now people from this community has lots of ideas (cf all the threads and posts on how to make things better), but there's always a problem. The persons concerned either don't have the programming knowledge, or they don't have time/don't want to invest so much (time and effort) in to this. And that last point is also understandable.

By the way, I've never played a game with Tacos without a desync wut. I still don't think ds are the main problem with online gaming, but whatever.

I meant to say "What Sangoku said", sorry for forgetting a word and causing you to type an entire new post, rofl

 

[RickySSB]

An emulator like GGPO would be delicious.

Lol, I thought you might have wanted to say that, but in doubt I preferred writing it all again.

Maybe internet explorer and massive can tackle it when theyre done with melee online. This seems like it would be a lot more simplistic. Im sure they, or even other smashboads programmers could whip something up

 

[Sangoku]

First we have absolutely no idea when they finish their current project, it could be in a few months, but in years too. As they said themselves, they're just nice guys who do that for the community between job and school and without time pressure. Second, assuming they finish Melee in a near future, why would they work on a game they don't even play? Again, working on online Melee isn't their job, but they do it anyway because they love the game. 64 is obviously not their job either, but if they don't love/don't know the game, I don't see why they would help us.

Maybe I'm being a bit pessimistic, but I really doubt there will be any major improvement concerning online 64. Just let the game die slowly .

 

[The Star King]

^Actually they said themselves that there's a good chance they will work on Smash 64 after Melee, because apparently it would be a lot easier

But yeah we have no idea when they'll be done

 

[ballin4life]

contributing to open source software projects can be a great addition to one's resume, in case anyone needs any additional motivation to work on e.g. Firo's client

Ballin'

such a willing cog in the machine of today's employment shenanigans

Why can't you just be chill and record spoken word albums like the other bay area guys

 

[ballin4life]

[Battlecow]

dude I need to see that more than I have ever needed anything

 

[ballin4life]

Oh I didn't remember. That would be awesome, let's keep our hopes alive then.

Like bryan micon, I'm too smart to work for the man.

 

[The Star King]

ROFL I love how obviously he wrote his own page. Like Koro on Smash Wiki.

 

[Sangoku]

That poor bryan only got insult in his youtube dance video .

I really don't think you can watch it without being my FB friend due to all the privacy settings and what all

Regardless, the good version of the music video isn't even available online - it's sitting on a DVD in some guy's closet. I've been looking to put that video online for YEARS.

 

[Battlecow]

[Olikus]
