Which version of mame do you have, rk? I know the earlier versions had that issue, but afaik version 0.4 fixed that (0.4 is also the latest version I know of).

it's version 0.4 , is it suppose to autoscroll when you get to the last item?

@TheRealStatic I was going to do a little work on it until my laptop decided to get a crack in the LCD. Hopefully in a couple weeks.

What games work well on 0.4? I tried Donkey Kong, which ought to be easy for the Wii to handle. The framerate was poor and the sound was glitchy.

Hard to say. There's a list with all supported roms here...but just because it's supported doesn't mean it runs well.

There was a nice list of good, playable games coming along on tehskeen...but it kinda got lost with the rest of the forum.

All I really care about are the "konami" beat 'm ups (asterix, simpsons, turtles 4 & 5, X-men), and they play out great. And vendetta (no one I know heard of it...but it was the best beat 'm up experience ever).

And of course...TAPPER!!!!

Well, since TehSkeen is gone and I don't have an actual release for the new site, might as well post an update here.

Hardware acceleration! It's going places! Not quite the right place, but it's a start!

nice to see you back on this project !

but what do you mean by "hardware acceleration" ? isn't wii-sdl already using video & audio hardware acceleration ? you are expecting more ?

The way SDL works is everything is written pixel by pixel to a single texture in software and that one texture is written to the framebuffer. This new way will avoid having to decode all the textures in software, which should give us a nice speed boost. It should also make games with a lot of texture scaling (like Out Run) faster as well since the GPU will be doing all of that now.

That is, once I get the Wii's funky block layout for textures working my way. And because MAME uses several different texture types, it might take a while.

So, erm...does that mean we have to tie down our wii's before loading the emulator?

Glad to see so many people still waiting for a release. Sorry for the long hiatus.

In other news, more progress!

    I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

    He put it down when the 3ds came out

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
