Ok here is the log in case anyone is interested.
Edam is the author.

>g56k> real 1:1 emulation would be 5-10 ghz + on n64 and ds
>Edam> So what's up with this DS emu?
>Scorpiove> it barely emulates the mode 7 in the gba thats what
>g56k> nothing
>g56k> stop asking about it
>Veilkrand> but you never will do 1:1, there is a lot of optimizations tricks
>g56k> go buy a real ds
>g56k> its not like theres any roms to play anyway
>Edam> Scorpiove: It should. The hblank interrupt is handled ok
>Scorpiove> yeah ds is a nice toy
>Veilkrand> there is the metroid demo
>g56k> well i mean putting it through software emulation
>Edam> I'd be surprised if a DS can be emulated under 1GHz, but it's certainly possible.
>g56k> which is alot of cpu
>Veilkrand> darkfader dumped metroid demo
>g56k> even with dynarec cores and shit
>Edam> Hell, look at the N64; dynarec pushed that to viability at 600MHz
>Edam> Ok, feck it. I'm the author. Direct your abuse at me.
.
.
.
>Edam> Wow, no abuse
>g56k> vba isn't very accurate itself
>g56k> its got timing issues and shit
>Edam> VBA's much more accurate than my core. Believe me on that
>Edam> Mind you, anyone in here could write a core better than mine
>NinSeg> Somebody optimized VBA 1.7.2
>VmprHntrD> he adds in a ton of great shit
>g56k> i don't collect emus
>g56k>
>Edam> Damn it. I'm meant to be getting abuse. Not giving it to myself
>g56k> i tried that build
>g56k> but its still slow
>VmprHntrD> maybe your pc is slow
>Edam> You try coding an emu, then get back to me on speed
>g56k> i have a 2ghx
>g56k> *ghz
>VmprHntrD> well I got less and it runs 100%
>Edam> I'm gonna dynarec "ds"emu when the core's viable
>g56k> it runs 100% but the games sometimes stutter and freeze esp. with lots of mode 7 or 3d on screen
>Edam> Scorpiove: Anyway, have you got a good mode7 test I could run?
>Scorpiove> sorry i dont
>g56k> the shinen logo in iridion 3d is a perfect example cause the logo just hangs onces its zoomed it
>g56k> *in
>Edam> (How can you tell it's bad on mode7 then?
)
>Scorpiove> edam what are you talking about
>Scorpiove> you missed what i siad
>Scorpiove> said*
>Edam> Anyway. I was assured I was going to get abuse once I popped in here.
>Edam> And I have received very little!
>Scorpiove> Edam you dont know what you are talking about... I said nothing of mode 7, I'm talking about a cpu
>g56k> ram doesn't really make a difference in emus
>g56k> unless its hle shit
>Edam> Just after I joined you said "it barely emulates mode 7"
>Edam> Of course, that _could_ have been another emu you were talking about
>Edam> g56k: You'd be surprised
>Edam> I tend to use a truckload of RAM to store the loaded ROM
>Edam> And yes, there's a reason for me to take so much RAM
>Edam> Well, you'd be right. It doesn't even get the arm7 right
>Edam> Crashes out _constantly_
>Edam> What have y'all actually tried on dsemu? I'd be interested to know results
>Scorpiove> Someone thought it was asking for ds emulation
>Scorpiove> errrrr
>Scorpiove> bleh
>LReyome29> ds emulation, about 5 years maybe
>Edam> Hah. An emulator called DSemu, emulate a DS?
>Scorpiove> someone wanted ds emulation
>Edam> Nah, it won't be long. 3D's just like OpenGL, and the ARM9 is an ARM7 with addons
>Scorpiove> remember the arm7 in the ds has more than the arm 7 in the gba
>Scorpiove>
>Edam> But it's locked down. So useless!
>Edam> I should do an MSX at some point. Probably easier than DS
>Scorpiove> what does the ds have for video
>Edam> Just two standard GBA screens
>Scorpiove> i mean the hardware
Edam> I'd guess a specialised chip again
>Edam> Anyway. I'd like to know what y'all've tested on "ds"emu
>Scorpiove> I haven't tried it
>Scorpiove>
>Edam> Try it! it'll crash, guarantee it
>Scorpiove> are you really the author?
>Edam> Sure I'm the author
>VmprHntrD> what are you the author of
>Edam> VmprHntrD: I've never seen a fully accurate one
>VmprHntrD> gba emulation is pretty solid, I dunno what you're talking about scratching barely
>Edam> VmprHntrD: "ds"emu (go on, diss me)
>VmprHntrD> well accuracy eh
>VmprHntrD> dsemu eh
>VmprHntrD> don't you have an irc channel
>Edam> eh
>Edam> Not that I know of!
>VmprHntrD> oh wait no that was the gbalink dude
>VmprHntrD> dsemu is what it is, you won't get me insulting it
>Edam> I didn't expect praise
>ReyVGM> you should REALLY change the name of that dsemu, every loser and lamer thinks they can play ds roms there... like there even are ds roms yet
>Edam> ReyVGM: I like to confuse people
>ReyVGM> at least a tem name change
>Scorpiove> change it to sdemu
>Scorpiove> lol
>Edam> If I change the name, lots of things would have to change
>VmprHntrD> the name is fine
>VmprHntrD> the DS has the gba processor in it, and you got to start somewhere
>Scorpiove> if he changes it someone else will take it
>ReyVGM> its just a name change, just stop refering to it as a ds emu, nothing major
>Edam> I alreay have a subtitle on the site, >strikeout>DS>/strikeout> / GBA
>ReyVGM> cept the chans get flooded with N00BS asking for ds roms to play on their DSEMU
>ReyVGM> and when we tell them there arent any ds emus they all link to your emu
>Scorpiove> lol
>VmprHntrD> thats the chans problems not his
>ReyVGM> i just tend to ban them
>Edam> Heehee
>Edam> Damn it
>ReyVGM> like i said, its not a dsemu yet, so why call it that?
>Edam> I'd agree with the change in principle
>ReyVGM> like just a temp name change until it really starts showing its ds powers
>Edam> But it'll be 10 years before it can try to emulate a DS
>Scorpiove> lol are you a beginner programmer edam?
>Scorpiove> err not beginner, but first project?
>Edam> Scorpiove: Let's just say that, before this project, my biggest piece of code was a hundred lines
>ReyVGM> well i guess Edam will be confusing the n00bs for 10 years with its dsemu
>Edam> Yes, confusion is good.
>ReyVGM> trust me, confusion is not good, if you say you are new at this you really haven't started to receive the massive ammount of lame emails asking for roms and asking for features for the emu
>em0rox> HA
>em0rox> 10 years?
>ReyVGM> if you arent gonna emulate the ds for another year then i guess the name 'dsemu' is just really misleding
>em0rox> rey, it is a "claim to fame"
>em0rox> 3?
>Edam> Bets are being laid down
>ReyVGM> 'claim of fame'? thats just lame
>ReyVGM> thats like lying and stuff
>em0rox> rey, but true
>Edam> I won't be the first to emulate a DS well. Guarantee you that.
