New Gekko work-in-progress

**ShizZy** · August 11th, 2012, 08:44

Hey - Out of boredom with life, I've been working on Gekko again for the past 6 months or so, if anyone has been perhaps interested but not noticed. I've made some pretty big progress since the GCN dark ages (with dual core and OpenGL support, half-fullspeed with just a pure interpreter). Just thought I'd share some of my progress, as it seems a lot of my work has been pretty isolated from the emu scene.

That being said, I really could use a hand with testing (my 1-2 testers are pretty busy as it is)... so if anyone is interested please send me a PM, or join my forum http://6bit.net/forums/, or #gekko on EFnet. Thanks

Oh, and, it's opensource now- http://code.google.com/p/gekko-gc-emu/

I know this post is about 2 months old, but I was beginning to wonder if you were still around. Glad to know you're okay.

I wish I had more time for emus and stuff. The walls keep crashing to the ground around here. I'll survive, but I hate knowing there's stuff people are anticipating that I'm working on and can't finish...

The last update of this project was 3 hours ago xDDDDDD, which means that's full active

Also, there's a linux version, I'm going to compile the emu and let you know how it goes xDD

And if anyone knows how to use Nvidia UBO's effectively, Shizzy could do with pointers

My compiled vers crashes on every game I launch before game even starts. I got it from EmuCR.com. That could be my problem.

Wow, it's great seeing other Gamecube emulators being worked on!

So far, I have tested 5 games and they worked, but I haven't been able to test more because I can't use the keyboard or the Jostick in the last revision of the emu
