Homebrew [Release] Bread Box (C64 Emulator)

[AmandaRose]

We still need a Nintendo 64 emulator! WE NEED OUR MARIO 64!

As has been stated many times over and over and over again on here Nintendo 64 emulation will probably never happen on the 3ds due to the complexities of the n64 and lack of power of the 3ds

A PS1 Emulator is happening Im pretty sure someone could make a N64 Emulator...

Can't anyone in this place stay on topic for even a single page?

OK so here is a wild thought for you I have a Galaxy Note 4 phone that is way more powerful than a 3ds and it plays playstation games perfectly yet struggles to play most Nintendo 64 games so do you see a problem in your argument yet??

 

[william341]

Do you know when you are gonna fix that?

 

[spinal_cord]

I think I fixed the file loading issues. Everyone is free to give it a try, you shouldn't need true 1541 for most games.

Thats not the crash I was talking about. if your .prg doesn't load, then it simply doesn't load. Try a different game. Frodo compatibility is not brilliant because of the emulation methods used.

[edit] Forgot to mention, the C64 screen is 22px taller than the 3DS screen, so I used the 3D Slider to scroll the screen up and down

hmm. is it really so?

according to Wikipedia:

"There are two low-resolution and two bitmapped modes. Multicolor bitmapped mode has an addressable screen of 160 × 200 pixels, with a maximum of four colors per 4 × 8 character block. High-resolution bitmapped mode has an addressable screen of 320 × 200 pixels, with a maximum of two colors per 8 × 8 character block."

The border should always be included, quite a few games places sprites outside of the normal screen space. technically it should be 44px larger but I don't think frodo emulates that much of the screen.

cool. I buy that argument!

Good luck with this emulator, think about playing The Last Ninja I & The Last Ninja II on the 3DS

 

[spinal_cord]

hmmmm, does anyone have the current build working on hardware? It's working fine in citra but keeps crashing my 3ds.

 

[william341]

What do you mean by crashing. It's working until I load a d64 and it freezes up

 

[spinal_cord]

thats what i mean. When I load a d64 its dumping be back to the home screen.

FrodoDS is under GPL so you MUST release the source code of this project as this is a modification of FrodoDS.

Otherwise you won't be only breaking GBATemp rules but also the law.

Thanks spinal, great job

1. Show me where I said I wouldn't release the source.
2. Are you seriously going to complain about upholding a licence on a forum solely based on the idea of piracy and breach of copyright? If so, you are more that welcome to get Christian Bauer involved in the matter. If he want's me to remove an unfinished, barely working port, then I'm more than happy to do that.

 

[Vague Rant]

GPL is a lot more flexible about how you provide your source than the average GBATemp user probably knows. There is no requirement that you "release" the source in any public manner. On a noncommercial release such as this one, you could, e.g. offer to provide it to individual users on request (by snail mail, even; you could probably even charge them postage and the price of the physical medium as long as it was very clear you weren't charging them a fee for the source code). Or you could throw it in a zip and PM it to people who ask, go nuts. But it's a legal falsehood to claim that you "MUST release the source code" for most sensible understandings of the word "release". Also, there isn't really anything in the GPL about how promptly you act on that offer (although it's probably frowned on from an ethical perspective to delay significantly).

If someone really wanted to strain to find some legal issues here around licensing they'd be a) you didn't provide access to a copy of the license with the binary and b) you're required to offer the source for any binary you provide, so if you haven't been using a versioning system while writing this port you'd have difficulty providing older revisions' source.

Have fun taking those complaints to court, though.

When it's stable enough be be called 'working' I'll be more than happy to post the code, even though it's a butchered mess.

how well does it runs demoscene stuff?
