MAME port for Cray?
<< < (3/3)
Lilwolf:
You shouldn't need a cray for that.  There are parts of mames descrete sound emulation which is very similar to this. 

I've been talking about this for a long time.  I just don't know enought to be able to do it.  I keep hoping that an emulator author would get excited about it.

I think it would be REALLY cool to have an emulator which you basically drop in the schematics and then the roms and your done.  If you don't have a rom chip (or have a bad one) it will act just like the original board.

I started to do that few year ago. It was a PCB simulator , i coded that in turbo pascal.  That's worked to simulate simple PCB.  With simple processor , ram, logical port .  I wanted to make something to allow to build emulator based directly on Shematics.  But when i stated that project in 1992-93 , PC was not enough fast to do something playable.   
The other problem would be to emulate anologique part.

I still have in my head to do something like that. But i quickly realize that 's not a project you can do alone and you need lot of time!... If i was still student may be i would start again.

I say this often "If I was still a student"...

next is "The time I had before I had kids"

But I remember in school drinking a lot...  When I should have been into emulation!  Where was my priorities!  (ok, and MAME didn't exist at that point :)  yeah I'm old)

Heh, when I was in school, personal computers were running the same processors that powered the arcade games. Emulation was pointless, as you could go and play the games in arcades like they were ment to be played. ;)
