Snes9x MSU-1 Support

[ThegreatBen]

Will this be released as a complete exe or a IPS or an ini? How will this thing work?

[qwertymodo]

The code has been merged into the master branch of the main git repo, so the feature will be available in all future releases.  You can compile it yourself or wait for 1.54.2/1.55/whatever they're going to call it (or just download from the link in the OP).

Eh, Wii U port already has perfect sound and speed on Snes9x, there's a Snes9x 1.54 core, it's not final, it all depends on what the team does.

wii u retroarch is totally alpha right now, the nightly builds work and stop working at random while they fix things. There is not even an official release. the wait will be worth it since they are hard at work

True, but the Wii port's come a long way. Outside of maybe some sound effects in Chrono Trigger and a speed issue with Star Fox it's just about as stable.

this is what i meant, a great option meanwhile and a nice platform to enjoy while 1.54 happens on wii u

not sure why anyone brought up wiiu when the retroarch for wiiu (like others have said) isn't even perfect yet. makes more sense for it to start on the wii first. qwertymodo did what most said was impossible. not only did he combine all the fmvs in chrono trigger but we will have msu-1 on the wii soon (hopefully) thanks to this snes9x implementation. really excited. wish I could contribute in some way. this will be a dream come true for me and many others who do their snes gaming on pcs or wii's.

*Shrug* Snes9x 1.53 already runs perfectly on Wii U, full speed, no hiccups, it's already making a lot of progress, I've moved on from the Wii and vWii mode, not trying to be a jerk, sorry...

you are being a jerk, please stop it. Wii makes more sense right now given the stability, it is simple common sense

*Sigh* I don't feel so well...


Let's agree to disagree.

A wii port would have been nice but it's pretty much been abandoned for vWii. Thanks for making this emulator tho. I hope you update it to get the emulation perfect.

Yeah, "would have been" nice, you know, except for the part where I already did it...

...I fucking love you. Downloading immediately. 

[qwertymodo]

Just a heads up, audio is still a bit choppy. I think I have a patch to fix it, but I've been out of state for the holidays.

[Kallisto]

So there will be a new release sometime today or tomorrow?

[Zeikar]

so it's snes9x for Windows and snes9xgx for Wii with MSU you're working on?

[MathUser2929]

Wow, a wii port. I may have to try that. Don't know what hack I'd try first.

Edit:Ok, I downloaded it and it seems it's not compiled yet. Anyone plan on compiling it? I don't have any idea how to do such a thing.

[qwertymodo]

The main Snes9x project is Windows, Linux, and libretro, all of which are working (though libretro missed a few things when they pulled the code, like save states aren't loading the msu state). Snes9xGX is the Wii port, and it's working, but the audio is crackling, though I might have a fix for that, I just haven't had time to try it. Those are the only ones I'm working on. I tried building EX+ for Android, but couldn't figure out the build process, so no go there, at least not from me. However, I mentioned libretro supports it, and that includes RetroArch on Android. I think that pretty much covers it.

[MathUser2929]

So is there a wii port of this emulator yet? Or are you saying it's coming later?

did u even checked the link?

[MathUser2929]

Yes, I downloaded something from that link and I saw a lot of files that usually aren't in emulators for Wii. There's usually a emulator folder and a apps folder. I didn't see any boot.dol.
