CXBX and Halo

A bit late but better late than never

Over in this thread on our forums, there's a nice progress update about the XBOX emulator CXBX, which just recently started running games at real good speeds. But read for yourself:

yeah, halo is making good progress. there are issues (probably simple swizzling problems) with textures; but other than that, halo is able to boot up very fast so it is mostly minor fixes to get the menu working really nicely. then i'll get it in-game and see what new fun there is to fix.

halo likes to modify it's textures at unusual times, which had me scratching my head until last night when I put in a fix and suddenly everything started showing textures.

Great news indeed. You can check out the CXBX homepage or our forums for more informations.
