The Ultimate Emulator Project

well that is true too. but i dunno i am pretty stupid

You guys are quick to figure I'm offened by the smallest of things. :lol:

I've been into emulation since I was 7 (started with a Snes emulator, then worked my way up to nes, GB, and then N64, MAME, and I'm starting to use a PSx emulator). I'm not always up to date with the emulator news, but I've been doing it as of late.

there's a difference between an emulator player and an emulator writer. your ability to use an emulator doesn't reflect your skill as a coder, life isn't so simple, buddy. if you have trouble setting up something as simple as ePSXe, your project is doomed to fail.

Lol, I think you should go for it now just to prove us wrong...

A very ambixious project that requires more than skills

I just don't think we're going to be able to combine all the emulators, it'll take too long to start from scratch and we'll have to have all the programmers chip in and then change all the front ends. Not all the programmers are going to want to do this, plus then we'd have to have the programmers in emulating the net play/2 player over net and many are just going to want to stick to their own projects.

Unless you have the skills to combine all these emulators, the idea sounds unrealistic on such a scale. Emulators have been combined (Fusion (SMS/GG/Genesis) Atari, PC emulators, etc.) but when we're talking 32-bit consoles upwards, it's not possible to achieve such perfection.

so much for support from this forum too, eh?

We are giving you the best kind of support you can get dude, it's called the truth. It's not like the movies where someone has an epiphany in the last 20 minutes and wins the contest/get's the girl/wins the race/ programs the most advanced emulator on the planet

Put it this way...it's not as easy as said.It requires too much work.
There is MESS...it has lots of systems emulated.

aaaah movies. they make our own dreary dead-end lives seem happy

hmm no one reads my posts

but if you really want to i would start by taking the emulator M.E.S.S and hacking it. it already plays most systems and you wouldnt have to worry about programing an emulator from scratch. the only problem is this will still be a very hard task to do.
