Yuzu Progress Report October 2023
- matheusmoreira 3y agoAlways impresses me the quality of the engineering that goes into emulators. Wish every project would do these reports.
- airstrike 3y agosadly it seems to be unavailable on Mac
- 0xDEADFED5 3y agoryujinx for you then yuzu's theoretically already done the heavy lifting...Vulkan has been the focus for a while. i wonder if yuzu would break MoltenVK in terrible ways, or if it's mostly compatible
- VHRanger 3y agoI tried to port Yuzu to MacOS. There's still an old PR for it somewhere in the GitHub. I got some 2d games booting. The main problem is simply that none of the core devs have a mac! The other big hurdle is the lack of some shader types on metal. For example, geometry shaders are used in Mario, but not available. They'd have to be emulated with compute shaders. The CPU emulation side is pretty easily compatible.
- 3836293648 3y agoEmulators are amazing and these progress reports (and Ryujinx's and Citra's and Dolphin's) are great reads. It just feels a bit icky to see them work on current gen consoles. Preservation is important, but focusing on current gen stuff just feels like they're actively catering to pirates rather than just incidentally helping them.
- DistractionRect 3y agoI own a switch, but higher res and mod support simply provide the better experience.
- ronsor 3y agoIf one doesn't do the work now, then it'll soon be too late.
- jamesgeck0 3y agoBy that logic, we'd have a lot more folks working on the less mature 3DS and WiiU emulation scene. That's where we've got aging irreplaceable hardware starting to fail, and many popular games still not playable without hacks or patches.
- causi 3y agoIt just feels a bit icky to see them work on current gen consoles. Nintendo has used legal and illegal bullying to shut down more fan projects and youtube channels than I've pirated games. Until they stop hating the people who love them most, fuck 'em.
- realusername 3y agoDon't worry, Nintendo is also trying to shut down websites sharing 40 year old games, there's never been any limit for them.
- wiseowise 3y agoOh noes, my poor billion worth gaming companies that milk their player base. Who will think about them?!
- jamesgeck0 3y agoThe update includes fixes for an indie game released this year. Megacorps aren't the only ones affected by this.
- 3y ago
- alakep 3y agoI thought this was about Yuzu Health
- mtsr 3y agoOne thing that I really wish one of these emulators would support is VR. The VR support in Zelda and Mario would really shine on a proper VR HMD with VR controllers.
- j5155 3y agoI would say VR support is an exaggeration…no motion controls, no first person view, and in SMO you can’t even play the main game iirc
- sillywalk 3y agoYuzu is a Nintendo Switch Emulator.
