PPC emulation for winuae
If OS4 for classics becomes available. Will we ever see PPC emulation on winuae? Or maybe on a PPC hosted version of UAE?
|
No.
|
Why in hell PPC emulation? Only for OS4? WinUAE/JIT is muuuuch faster than every real PPC machine.
|
not that fast as it wont start my ppc games ??? :D

really, only on my pegII I see a point in ppc games like quake2, descent, hereticII... my 233mhz csppc+g-rex / voodoo3 sucks in them... |
I've got a funny feeling this has been discussed before...

I realized how much WarpOS sucks when I played QuakeII, Wipeout + Wipeout 2097 on my P1 200mhz system imho Shogo + Heretic II are the worst examples, the other PPC games are quite playable I bet you only get half of the performance due to the context switches from WarpOS :guru |
Why on earth do you want to play these under emulation - aren't the PC native versions of those games far superior anyway? Working CDTV emulation will be far more useful.

doesnt bother me though, pushed through doom at 9fps on 030/50 ;) quakeII works just as well without screaming fps (around 15-20 on bppc) , but shogo/heretic2 suffer quite badly although i pushed through and finished h2. shogo was to much ;) its only in the most recent games (last 3-4 years??) where low fps kills the game as the old games actually skipped frames to keep game speed moving. now they have to show every frame so low fps kills them. i never got 3d support working with voodoo way back then, so for me it turned out better on amiga then pc ;) this is one game that runs very nice even on cheapest amiga ppc hardware. Imnot pushing to support ppc emu by the way.. just saying what it was like when i cared to use the miggy. emulating the miggy environment every now n again is plenty for my amiga fix now on speedy pc ;) |

There's no need to beat about the bush, tell us what you really think. It would be nice if there was an emulator that OS4 will run on - Until OS4 x86 arrives... ... ... ... ... ... I have to content myself with curiosity only. PearPC..? |
Apple is able to do PPC emulation on Intel Mac's, they are doing G3 or maybe even G4 emulation I think. It works very well and most of it is transparent to the user.

Maybe another programmer can write a PPC model for Toni that can be included with WinUAE. JIT was made by someone else after.

Answer is still NO. I never add anything PPC specific to WinUAE. (of course I can't prevent others to fork it) Seriously, if you want PPC emulation and run OS4+, patch/hack/etc PearPC (or something like that). PPC classic emulation will be totally pointless and really slow. warning: this will get quickly locked if... |
