8-bit:

Why don't you get one of those wonderkind 13-year-olds to code you up an emulator, so you can shut up.

Please.

You obviously have no idea how difficult programming is. I'm a professional, have been for 5 years, programming for 10, and I have no idea how these guys got this far with ePSXe. All the work I do is on problems that are mostly understood, on software and with tools that are usually very well documented.

Not so with an emulator, where you're basically hacking the instruction set for an almost undocumented processor. Do you think Sony wants these guys to write emulators? Obviously not. Any information found on the nature of the PSX processor and subsystems is all gathered via trial-and-error and experimentation.

Seriously, if you've got such omnipotent friends, have them code up an emulator for your system. Maybe they won't even charge you for it. :fingers:

 

>THEN, THEY START CHARGING. Nobody codes just so they can
>be nice
Funny, I know of a piece of software which is being continually updated and improved by people all over the globe with the express understanding that they'll never receive any money at all for it. Perhaps you've heard of the Linux kernel? Of course I'd be remiss if not to mention the fact that Zsnes operates on very much the same principle.

 

Yeah and ever heard of Winamp? its free, maybe not that hard of a program to code, but its been getting regular updates for a few years now. It makes me wonder what kind of people you grew up around that would make you think that nobody would put some effort into something and then give it away. This thread is leading nowhere.

 

You guys sound like tools.
Yes, coding is hard. Thats why the guy at ePSXe suck at it.
And I do know a 13 year old that is working ona game boy advance emulator.

You cannot blame hardware because your supposed to code FOR the hardware, not the other way around.


They are constantly improving it, that is true. But they still don't charge you because they know it is still too buggy for release.

And don't give me this "Do you think Sony wants these guys to write emulators? " crap. Bleem! has done a fine job keeping their stuff bug free. ePSXe is a desperate company that is frustrated at the results. Just a hunch.

And like somebody said, coding is really hard, so why would anyone do for free?

DO YOU ALL REALIZE THAT YOU ARE CONTRADICTING YOURSELVES?!

Winamp gets mass profit because they recieve over 500,000 hits a day from people looking for skins and plugins.

 

Blah, you're an idiot.

This is my last reply to you. Let me just say this, Winamp isn't making mass profits from the hits they are getting. They are making mass profits because they licensed the app to AOL.

"You cannot blame hardware because your supposed to code FOR the hardware, not the other way around." Brilliant.

"Bleem! has done a fine job keeping their stuff bug free. ePSXe is a desperate company that is frustrated at the results. Just a hunch."

Work this into that thick husk you call a skull. There is no ePSXe COMPANY.

And on top of that, Bleem isn't as stable as you seem to think.

"...coding is hard. Thats why the guy at ePSXe suck at it."

Do me a favor. Age about 5 years, then look back at these posts and say "Man, I was a dumbass when I was 14."

 

Yes, coding is hard. Thats why the guy at ePSXe suck at it. And I do know a 13 year old that is working ona game boy advance emulator.

I believe you, in the history of Emulation there were some young, brilliant coders. But even if you are one of them (which I don't believe), you should have more respect with the ePSXe authors.

You cannot blame hardware because your supposed to code FOR the hardware, not the other way around.

Err... first, what they said was "blame the hardware manufacturers". And yes, they're responsible. There are many crappy pieces of hardware out there, and an unbelievable number of poorly written drivers. You know that if you use only good-quality hardware and certified drivers even Win95 can be rock-solid stable?

They are constantly improving it, that is true. But they still don't charge you because they know it is still too buggy for release.

First, we're not contradicting ourselves, many people code for free. Try searching for freeware, you'll see what I mean. Or Linux.
Second, ePSXe is not a company, they're not trying to sell anything. Their software is free, and they don't owe you anything.
Third, if you like Bleem! that much then stop bothering us and go use it. That is, if you can find a way to make it work with Win2000.

Don't EVER tell me that Bleem! for the PC is worth more than just crap. First of all, the program hasn't updated for over a YEAR now (I don't think it even updated more than seven times TOTAL) and 1.5 is STILL freeze-happy. I paid $30 for that thing and now I just use ePSXe, because, despite its bugs, it's more stable and looks better than Bleem. (hell, for a lot of games it even RUNS faster).

Why dont you start asking your 13yr. old friend code a psx emulator, why not just sell your system and get a real psx and shut your dumb azz.

 

What are you talking about 8bit? EPSXE works perfect you just have to know the compatibility and how to use it. I t runs 100%perfect on my system so dont complain.

Why dont you make your own emulater and stop complaining.

 

>They just either suck at coding, or maybe they really didn't spend "hours and

Do you know the term "hobby"?

>All the other non-Playstation emulators work perfectly on mine.

and all the other Playstation emus? You can't compare mices with
elephants.

There ARE endless configurations on PC based hardware. I dunno
what kind of "technical support" board you'd owned, but if you deny that
fact I think it was a board about coffee machines

>Coding around problems isn't THAT hard.

Yes. It's not THAT hard. It's HARDER! Nobody of the freeware emu coders has
every kind of hardware (and of course all of the zillions psx games) around to
check out each problem. How do you code around a problem, if you can't produce
it on your system?

>And I did have have a Saturn emulator working so I know my CD-Drive is not to blame

Great proof!

>And I do know a 13 year old that is working ona game boy advance emulator.

Wow. Great news. That raises a number of questions:
1.) what's the nick name of this kid? "RealityBoy"?
2.) Since it will run all games flawless on all kind of hardware, how many bucks will the emu cost?
3.) will FF9 PAL UK work with this GBA emu?

>Bleem! has done a fine job keeping their stuff bug free

Ahem... are we talking about THAT bleem!? YES? WAHAHAHAHA...
* BlackDove is wiping away the tears of laughter

>ePSXe is a desperate company that is frustrated at the results

mmm... calb is only frustrated when Diablo2 starts lagging again, as far as
I can tell

>DO YOU ALL REALIZE THAT YOU ARE CONTRADICTING YOURSELVES?!

Don't you realize that you are making just a fool out yourself?
Fact is: you've downloaded some free software, it doesn't work on your system,
you are pissed, you are starting to complain and insult coders on a
messageboard... but since many of YOUR statements are contradicting...

(like:
"Coding around problems isn't THAT hard. " - "And like somebody said, coding is really hard, so why would anyone do for free?"
"I never ran into an emulator 'that just won't work'" - "I do get the SOny logo. And I do get sound at the logo"
"You cannot blame hardware because your supposed to code FOR the hardware, not the other way around" - "I used to own a technical support forum at EZ Board")

...I don't take you very seriously

Have fun

LOL! That's a good one...

You say they want to charge people for their emu when it will be perfect? Well _Demo_ is one of the creator of Zsnes and after long years the emu is perfect and still free so I don't think ePSXe will cost anything someday.
They're coding an emu as their hobby but also to make a name for themselves to get jobs easier(you know ,they show their work,the man is impressed,they get the job).
I really think you need to learn a lot of things before to flame emu authors and especially ePSXe authors since their emu is the best PSX emu around here.
Bye.

 

Just Shut the f**k up 8 bit Idonknowwhat.
Ure just an asshole who thinks he rules the world
come up w/ a PSX emulator (u can make it w/ ure wonder boy there) that works on every system, ill give u a prize.
I jes dont understand how ppl can be patient w/ u (yup, a lot of replys to ur completely dumbass thread here kind) cause i CANT!
hey Pete, great reply

Once again, ure a real asshole... AGE UP!

 

Jeez, I don't even know where to begin. The rampant ignorance of this board is quite overwhelming.

I should destroy your petty arguments but I see that this board is rather mentally inane.

Ah, but what the hell.





Dirk:

Yes, AOL bought them because they were getting mass revenue from the site. Otherwise, why would AOL care?

There is no ePSXe COMPANY

Right, it's a staff right NOW.


Do me a favor. Age about 5 years, then look back at these posts and say "Man, I was a dumbass when I was 14."


I'm 19. Please don't make assumptions.




BADARO:
You're a moron, I won't even waste my time with you.




MUKI:
, it's more stable and looks better than Bleem


ePSXe is NOT more stable than Bleem!. Bleem! runs more games and has much lower error numbers. Look at the size of this board.




IRAN:
You're stupidity breaks new ground.




LazyGuy:

What are you talking about 8bit? EPSXE works perfect you just have to know the compatibility and how to use it. I t runs 100%perfect on my system so dont complain.


This is easily one of the stupidest things I've EVER read in my enntire life. I DON'T GIVE A RATS ASS HOW GOOD IT RUNS ON YOUR PC, MORON! I'M COMPLAINING BECAUSE IT DOESN'T RUN ON MINE, AT ALL.





PETE:
Do you know the term "hobby"?

Didn't somebody just say coding was extremely hard? Well, if it can be brought down to the level of "hobbie" than whats so hard to believe a 13 year old is making a GBA emulator?
CONTRADICTIONS LEFT AND RIGHT!!

and all the other Playstation emus? You can't compare mices with
elephants.

Thanks for the tip. N64 runs on a much tougher code. MUCH TOUGHER.

There ARE endless configurations on PC based hardware. I dunno
what kind of "technical support" board you'd owned, but if you deny that
fact I think it was a board about coffee machines

Right now, I'm going forum to forum giving out free tech support because I'm bored. Like here:

http://pub40.ezboard.com/funcensored2frm1.showMessage?topicID=808.topic

The rest of your argument is mere filler. I clearly stated that the emulator worked at first then randomly stopped. You're are not even absorbing what I'm trying to say. You are only defending ePSXe with childish copy/pasting techniques.




RAZIEL:
Zsnes won't charge because they know there is no market for Super Nintendo emulators. Also, roms are almost illegal nowadays. Having PS games isn't.




NEOJAG:
GAY.

 

8 bit Orgy, allright, we have tried to help you and this is the way you treat us. You are now offically on my SHIT list and one step from being banned from these boards. To treat people this way is inexcusable and to make crack about the authors, of which Pete Bernert is one and a very good one I might add, is intolerable and unacceptable. These guy responded to you the way they did because you made them very angry. Who can blame them? They tried to tell you things, as did I, and to offer you suggestions, but no, you just raved on and on, attacking innocent people in the process. You say you are 19, well, I'm 49 and believe me, I've seen , heard, and done things that you haven't even dreamed of yet. Hell, I have two children who are older, more respectful, and more knowldgable than you. It takes a lot to get me this upset, but you have managed to do it. So I'm telling you right now, this is enough, no more or I will ban you myself. This is your first and only warning. Do us a favor, go, and don't come back! It would best for all if you did. Do not open another thread about this, I WILL delete it, I'm an administrator here. Thread closed!
