Progress Report: August 2017
Added 2017-08-28 14:34:53 +0000 UTCThis month has been a rather busy one for Cxbx-Reloaded, we even gained some new core contributors to the project.
We are pleased to welcome Radwolfie as a core member of the Cxbx-Reloaded team. For those who are not aware, this individual was the person responsible for the recent improvements to audio emulation.
We have also formed a new Issue Management Team, this currently consists of Patrick, Myself, Voxel, CakeLancelot and BenNottelling. This team is responsible for monitoring the issue tracker, ensuring all issues are logged accurately and are useful to the development team.
On the development side, I have been working behind the scenes on porting the LLE NV2A emulation from XQEMU to Cxbx-Reloaded. In the current state, it is non functional, and it likely will remain that way for quite some time: Don't expect Cxbx-Reloaded to be playing LTCG titles anytime soon.
That said, this work has lead to the identification and fixing of many core kernel issues within the project (it turns out that DPC routines, among other related things, were so broken that any title making use of them would instantly crash) , once ready to merge, this should have a significant benefit for HLE too.
