Hi,
I think it's about time that the RPCEmu changes I have been working on
are freed from my the confines of hard drive ;-)
The main additions to the Subversion version are:
- Support for networking
- Working dynarec
- Cocoa GUI
- Application bundle (i.e. it comes as RPCEmu.app which is a normal
OS X application)
Note that it is still very much a work in progress and has plenty of
known bugs. For example, it crashes every time you quit it! Also, it
does not work on Snow Leopard 10.6.1 - it runs but mouse input is
ignored.
If you would like to give it a try you can download it from http://www.devrx.org/software/rpcemu/rpcemu-fjd-20090929.tar.gz
. To install, untar it by double clicking on rpcemu-
fjd-20090929.tar.gz and then move RPCEmu.app into /Applications (or
wherever you want to keep it).
It has only been tested on OS X Leopard 10.5.8. rpcemu-
fjd-20090929.tar.gz includes source and an Intel binary, although it
is possible to compile a PowerPC version from source.
The first time you run it will prompt you for a data directory. This
is the directory that contains rpc.cfg, roms, hostfs and hard disc
files. You can either choose an existing directory or choose an empty
directory (~/Library/Application Support/RPCEmu by default) which
RPCEmu will set up by copying the ROM file you choose to it.
For more details, including instructions on how to set up networking,
see rpcemu-fjd-20090929/src/README-MacOSX.
I'm be happy to help with getting these changes into Subversion and/or
the Spoon Edition. The source code in rpcemu-fjd-20090929.tar.gz is
based on Subversion r168.
Francis
