It's possible, but it's not what I had in mind, and it would most likely be too slow when the rest of the hardware support would be in place.xipi2002 posted on Apr 18 2004 at 02:50 PM said:

Damn! that's what I was hoping for, (even without sound and clocked to the hilt!)Squidge posted on Apr 18 2004 at 03:23 PM said:
Anyway back on the MD emu, are you planning on using extra RAM for JIT compilation? I was just wondering, because that would explain why your emu would (in theory) be a lot faster,but more ram intensive than R'lyeh's.

Yes, my emu was designed to compile the 68k code to native arm on the fly, and then use this compiled version from there on. Much faster than any interpreted version.

Why not precompile on the computer? Or is that what you are doing? Or am I dumb, and that is impossible?Squidge posted on Apr 19 2004 at 10:37 AM said:

Well, until the code is executed (and you follow it through), you don't know what is code and what is data, so the first place you can start thinking about compiling is when your actually running it. A PC will never to be able to find all of the executable code without a lot of help from someone who knows a lot about the system it's for (and then it would take several days).

so you should be! :lol:xipi2002 posted on Apr 18 2004 at 02:50 PM said:
I think Rlyeh will pull his off but if he doesnt get sound support we can have squidges if he wants to make it! YAY!

tisk tisk tisk so quickly one pulls his loyalty and faith from one programmer to another Good luck to both of them I say. Im sure they'll both have great success.

to be honest if rlyeh manages to make his MD emu full speed(even with fs1 which is more or less unoticable) with sound and support roms greater than 2mo squidges emu might get shodowed by it, people will only use rlyeh emu. which would be sad

I thought about a way to load 4mb roms whilst on the toilet earlier, but I think I'll just write down that idea for another time and wait for rlyeh. Maybe he'll release his emu at the gbax compo.

I do all my best thinking on the toilet,.. there's nothing quite like a good hard think

THe toilet really helps to get the brain thinking so does the bed hehe Anyway hope you do decide to do it. The more Genesis emulators the better

yup, it's normally either on the loo or whilst driving to work on auto-pilot 50 miles, so plenty of time to think.

yeah well, it seems I start of from home, and about an hour or so later, I have to figure out where I am from landmarkings, as I've been thinking about something completely different for the past 60 minutes, so I call this auto-pilot, as I've no idea what the roads were like for the last hour, or what I've seen or what colors traffic lights like were etc. I only seem to remember the bad parts (sudden stops) and people getting in my way (moving lanes, but not actually overtaking anyone).
