Homebrew A step toward a working 3DS emulator has be made

[Jayro]

We've (3dmoo) had commercial roms shows gfx (broken albeit) for a few weeks.

Oh, my bad... I actually respect your work, Normmatt. I just didn't see anything announced.

Will the 3dmoo thread be updated to reflect that announcement?

I'm glad Citra is winning over 3dmoo, It's good to see the progress of the FIRST 3DS EMULATOR running commercial roms.

Actually it's Tron3DS

Actually it's Tron3DS

Well damn... my info is all out of whack. So Tron3DS, then Citra, Then 3dmoo, but 3dmoo has the first partial commercial rom support...

Is that correct?

(Forgive me, I've been drinking)

I'm hoping that eventually we'll be able to get 3DS emulation in 4K (native, not upscaled) with texture packs and 3D on 3D monitor like the Wii/GC (minus the native 3D part)

That's one of the main reasons I want to make a Skylake computer build next year, to futureproof for new performance-intensive emulators.

Congrats for the steps you've made! I've been following your updates cause I signed to your newsletter! Great Job guys, the time I get a stronger programming preparation, I will be pleased to help

Not sure why I even bother replying to you, but I've posted multiple updates on my GPU work in the early stages and stated another few times that a lot of progress has been happening, but that there was no good way to visualize this progress to the general public. Especially not on gbatemp's forums, where our thread gets trashed with questions about running pokemon on each thread page.

Anyway. Haters gonna hate, I guess. Either way, thanks for the overwhelming positive feedback

It makes me sad, because controls are borked on Citra for Windows users since I last checked. Why hasn't fixing them been top priority?

Because you haven't submitted a bug report yet

Really though, few of us actually ever use input because the main priority is getting anything to run at all currently, as explained before. We don't really ever get to test input hence.

Heh.

While I of course hope that in the future Citra will be the emulator of choice, I should note that the comparison of who boots games first is not really appropriate. 3dmoo has had stuff running with broken gfx a bit before us (as Normmatt mentioned), but Citra has had OoT booting with non-garbaged graphics, and I expect this pattern to continue for a while. However, it doesn't really matter who gets to reach which milestone first, as long as the two projects can benefit from each other, which they definitely do currently

Anyway, uh... no respect whatsoever to TronDS. That project may die in a fire if it were up to me lol

Although competition is a good thing, I'd rather they bring the emulator's strengths together for one wholesome emulator.

even homebrew community hates ps vita huh. there are a lot of discussion about 3ds firmwares, and now an emulator... must be good for sony because they blamed piracy all the time for psp.

Actually...

Keep it civil and constructive - congrats to the authors as well!
