PSMonkey posted this news on his site:

"Our fellow monkey Wally has discovered something interesting. He has found a way to make waverace 64 show the n64 logo. It's a rather interesting hack. Whats going on is waverace progresses far enough to setup the n64 logo into the framebuffer but then haults on an unemulated opcode. So by supressing the unemulated opcodes for now the emulator is able to loop long enough for the video code to force a vsync and make the emulator draw the framebuffer to the screen. So why does this matter? It shows the emulator can progress further then originaly though. It does not mean we are close to running comercial roms yet but it does mean with a little more work we could start seeing more results.

So we will have to see how things progress. So huge credit to wally for finding the hack & $n!pR for his continual testing of the emulator for me.

-- info about protest --
Well my protest turned out interesting. It's still an on going project that I will continue to push for (to get sites like ********** & dcemu to get along for a change). Yet I have still desided to take nincest on as a baby project wile i am still hard at work on iris, once maybe iris is futer along i will dedicate more to getting ninsest furter along to start running mario 64. So we will have to see how things go in the future.

Thanks to all who suported the protest & the scene.

--edit--
Now this post comes with a free pretty picture. Mmmm thats lovely. I sudgest framing it.

Well sounds good smile.gif Take your time. If I can play mario 64 or even golden eye(or perfect dark)on my psp, you'll be my gods.

it would be awsome if you could play mario 64

nothing has really been able to emulate 64 well

Goldeneye is a ways off...I think the first game we'll be able to play is Waverace JPN. I've also tested Goldeneye, Mariokart, Starfox and Bomberman. Mariokart is one I think we'll be able to do once Waverace is working at a decent speed.

Cheers! cool.gif

I would just be happy with Mario 64 and the Zeldas. I know that that is far off into the future, but I can dream can't I?

To me this is one of the best potential homebrew developments - along with a PSOne emulator.

So much so in fact that maybe donations should be considered - or a reward set up for the first person/group to produce a working emulator capable of playing actual game roms ( read: wifi goldeneye biggrin.gif )

I wish sony hadn't made it so hard, yes they hindered piracy a little, but I think if they had allowed homebrew the sales of the psp would have been higher and so would that of larger capacity memory sticks.

I guess this is cool because it shows what hombrewers can do but theres really no point to this. The psp isnt powerful enough to emulate n64.
rempsycho
that sounds awesome. cause i like the 64

Uhh...Yes it is. If you can emulate an N64 on a 333Mhz PC you can emulate it even better on the PSP (R4300). cool.gif
