I am ready to pay for an emulator.

I know that many of the coders here make these emulators for fun, but maybe some of us in the DC scene can put some money together and pay some one for the time and work used in making an emulator.

ok cmtz, you make the 1st donation then

Cmtz · Post by **Cmtz** » Thu Jan 01, 2004 10:43 am

I have no problem doing that. My only problem would be to who.

Which coder would accept the money in order to work on new emulators.

Cmtz i see no problem in doing that. If some one can make a game contest why not an emulator contest. Maybe you could start it.

but i see nothing wrong in wanting to be proactive. Money talkes bull-shit walks

Cool! That sounds like a good idea. I'll put in $30 in the contest and if anyone else will help that would rock. Lets see if more people come in. You guys don't have to put 30 dollars. I think that even 3 or 5 dollars is good.

Another thing would be someone to hold the money while this goes on. Who here is trusted?

what emulators would you like to see come out of it.?

Cmtz · Post by **Cmtz** » Thu Jan 01, 2004 11:11 am

I think this should be discussed as a group. Maybe people who pay. What emulators are possible. I know that N64 and PS emus are out of the question, but what is something you guys would feel good working on.

Anyone else wanna help me out here?

PC Engine is much desired, as is working Genesis with sound, but that's already close...

There still hasn't been a CPC 464 emulator, and it really shouldn't be too difficult.

Oh, and is 3 minutes before posting to ask for a response some kind of record for here?

Personally, I would LOVE a full speed SNES emulator, but I don't know if thats out of the question.

A Neo-Geo Cd emulator would be nice i would be happy to donate too

Cmtz go and take a loan out of 20,000 and have a chat with Rand, He might be interested

Ian Micheal · Post by **Ian Micheal** » Thu Jan 01, 2004 12:58 pm

$20.000 I think more like a few million.

Hmmm.... off the top of my head I can think of several possible emulators that, to the best of my knowledge, are not available...

PC Engine (fullspeed with sound) or better yet, Turbo Duo
Sega CD
Jaguar (roms are <4 MB in size, so should be possible)
Jaguar CD
NeoGeo CD
fullspeed Genesis/SNES
x86/DOS
GBA (although only the 4MB carts would be usable)
Palm OS
3DO
Philips CD-i

I'd be willing to donate too.

forget about jaguar x-box is not strong enough.
sega CD could be easyer but we would need a good genesis emu first!
3do is quite impossible

by the way you forgot
a fullspeed with sound wonderswan and neo geo pocket emus.

ah, an amiga emu would rock too, but i guess it's too difficult

I think an Emulator contest would be awesome, i'd put in 20$ for it. I would like to see a decent PSX emulator, or a full speed SNES/Genesis emulator. Though more leaning towards PSX. But we can set up rules and what not on a later date. Couldn't we set up a PayPal account and put donation money into it? Have someone trusted set up the account and watch over it. I would so love to see this become reality.

Ian Micheal · Post by **Ian Micheal** » Thu Jan 01, 2004 2:32 pm

Yeah I agree We all love emulation.

Cmtz · Post by **Cmtz** » Thu Jan 01, 2004 2:49 pm

Well, if someone trusted can hold an account. I can donate my money next week. I've always trusted Dr. Zoidberg and Darc.

i can't donate money, but i'd love to have a nice amiga emu (the hardest "feasible" option

)
