Does anybody know of any Console Developing Sites that will help with the art and instruction on creating emulators & roms for the following systems: N64 PS2 Playstation Dreamcast Genesis SNES NES Sega Mastersystem Arcade Game Gear Nintendo Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advanced
Goto google.com and search for it yourself you stupid lazy fuckhead, and stop asking the same question expecting others to do work for you. We are here to HELP, when you have questions about why something YOU wrote won''t work, etc, we will be here.

When you ask retarded questions like "where can I find sites about this" over and over again, its ridiculous, and someone is going to end up doing something very drastic and very unnice to you.

Uh, where did I see this question 4 hours ago...I''ve kind of forgotten
Listen dude... I know this is a waste of time for me to post this, but here''s my advice:

Read the above reply. Read it three times. Then go back to any of your other posts, and read the replies to them at least three times each.

Go back and read your posts and see how repetitive they are. Would you waste your time responding to such a post if it occurred over and over?

Then Stop Posting.

This should be obvious to you. I''m not trying to be mean. People are pissed off and annoyed at you, and they have a right to be. This is GameDev.Net not DelphiProgrammer/Rodneyldixon help line.

People do NOT become programmers by asking questions and ignoring the replies. Simply wanting to make emulators does not help you. Read the replies, stop posting, buy a book and read. This is an order

Does anybody know of any Console Developing Sites that will help with the art and instruction on creating emulators & roms for the following systems:

N64
PS2
Playstation

Sega Mastersystem
Arcade
Game Gear
Nintendo Gameboy, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advanced


Alright I''ll try not to flame you (try), but instead I''ll give this advice:

Go for something smaller.

Look at that list, man! You''ve got everything from the dying N64 to the brand new PS2 to all these old systems that you won''t make any money off of-- unless you''re a pirate and that''s why you''re so interested in emulation.

Also the PS2 thing really throws me. Have you read an article on how the PS2''s hardware works? Trust me-- that''s not what you want to deal with. Rather than one big CPU like the GameCube has, the PS2 essentially has 3: one main CPU and two supporting ones. These circulate to put out the best performance possible.

That would be hard to emulate wouldn''t it ?

Nail it down to smaller projects. What''s the use in making programs for systems ten or fifteen years old? There''s no point. What''s more, you won''t enjoy doing it because you''ll know where it''s going-- nowhere.

My computer does also have 3 processing units.
And it''s also one main CPU and two supporting ones!

- CPU
- FPU
- GPU

Oh dear oh dear. We just don''t learn do we. Myopic Rhino will not be pleased . I love the way his thread not 10 or so posts down from this one has 27 replies - not one of which he''s botherd to read, nor reply to. In fact, I don''t think he''s ever replied to / read any of his posts, be it about Windows & Dos games, Delpi or his latest craze, emulators. I find that wierd. Well Myopic, he''s obviously ignored the fact you reissued that warning of one post, one forum - *again* - howsabout rebanning him ?

I''m going to answer your question, as usual, but the answer worries me. Tell me, do you know what a search engine is? No, it''s not a windows or dos or delphi 4D game, but something that searches for pages on a specific topic... sounds right up your street, right? Now hop along to google.com and leave us alone. You''ll get thousands of replies from that, none of which will be flames - just remember to read them this time.

I have to agree with these people. Why not just use a search engine? It would be a lot faster.

Here for you viewing pleasure, the top 8 reasons RodneyLDipshit posts to GameDev.net! (sorry, didn''t have time to think of 10)

He reads all of the replies, and enjoys seeing the trouble he''s stirred up, so keeps posting to stir up even more trouble.

He''s a college student doing a paper on flaming.

His hands have minds of their own and type whatever they want. As he''s posting he pleads with his hands "stop it guys! Come on now, I told you that those nice poeple on GameDev.net are getting mad at me. Come on, stop it already!! Please?!?"

He''s recovering from his lobotomy.

He was abducted by aliens and his brain hasn''t been the same since.

He''s actually a moderator trying to eliminate the excess traffic to the message boards.

He took the pink pills instead of the blue ones this morning.

He is an AI experiment gone horibly wrong!!!!!
