What are you talking about? I follow the GitHub commits and Reddit and I see progress at a snail's pace. What progress has Xenia made in the past 6 months?! I'm genuinely worried it's going to die soon and will never progress to even a 'descent' emulator. It's only capable of playing a handful of !2D! XBLA games and that compat. list never changes. Ooooooh, so impressive. Cemu is garbage compared to the godliness of Xenia.
Aside from migration to Vulcan and breaking some games (Scott Pilgrim for ex.), what is new? What new games boot? How's the 3D stuff coming along? What new features are supported? How's those perf. increases coming? What are you smoking? Do tell me about AAAAAALLLLL the progress Xenia has made lately and then let's stack that up to Exzap+team big bi-weekly releases.
Why do all these geniuses think opening up an emu allows thousands of devs to pour in and perfect emulation within weeks? That's not how it works kids. Maybe one day you'll learn that. Just stop talking (seriously) and enjoy the fastest progressing emulator on the market which, oh what do you know, is closed source. Stick with what's working. If this progress keeps up, keep this thing closed forever and trust that the team will deliver on the bonus things the community wants at some point. I'm pretty sure the team members/size will not be stagnate also, so there's always the possibility of more on-boarding - if you have the right qualifications....
As a game developer myself, two people working on Cemu while the next generation of open source emulation are still trying to figure things out years after their conception is becoming more of a joke than anything.
I have no disrespect for any on-going developments and I am not a programmer myself but I do see patterns in each development cycle.
In the past year alone Cemu has made far more progress and likely earns less than what Patreon states and the devs are likely not able to live off of that as a full-time job.
Compare that to Citra, Decaf and Xenia where you rarely see anyone reporting it online and I myself have seen a lack of commits.
RPCS3 and Nucelus aren't even mentioned anymore until some big game is shown off which hardly works at all or crashes badly.
For the longest time, I have been wondering what is going on with Decaf Wii U Emulation and it seems to progress slowly with more people working on it.
The sheer fact two people are working on a closed source Cemu project and haven't shared their knowledge proves they know what they are doing seeing as how there isn't a copy-paste war going on and from what I have been keeping up on, many devs borrow and copy from one-another.
I've seen the debate of open source vs closed source and results show that closed source keeps the copy-cats from potentially candy-wrapping viruses people are likely to gobble up in seconds.
Kudos to the devs of Cemu for that.
Honestly, I think the two are proving their merit and developing the first emulator that actually plays games than those who are still trying to pick up the pace.
The idiots lurking in this thread are obviously pirates and immature brats who have no idea what the word 'development' even means and flaunt their incoherent knowledge around like they own the place.
Let this be a lesson that hard work is appreciated and often undermined by selfish mongrels who care only for themselves.
Sociopaths are good at biting the hand that feeds them but couldn't find the food if they tried.
Also, this entire thread could use a massive Troll Genocide of mass proportions... seriously over 600 pages of less than information?
Get real and stop feeding the damn Trolls, they just keep getting uglier and worse.
I may be a skeptic but Exzap and his devs get my condolences of hard work and effort, this crap isn't easy and they do what no-one else can do unless otherwise proven.
So Trolls, if you can do better go code your own damn Cemu clone and prove you are better or get the hell out of here and leave your inhumanity out of the picture.
