Anyone intrested in Amithlon type PS3 Amiga emulator?
« on: October 27, 2008, 02:36:09 PM »
Just asking because I would like one :)

Could we possibly setup a bounty for it?

Main features should be:

Installable from CD or USB stick (what ever the PS3 support)
During install process it would ask for kickstart and OS media (3.1 or 3.9).
Hardware target should be A1200 with either 040 or 060
Ofcourse support for USB Competition Pro

 :-D

Now I can go and dream about it... :sleep:

Well UAE could also be used if it would help the process :) What puzzles me is that why haven't JIT been implemented to PPC port of UAE? Would it be a huge task?

I really had in mind a complete custom emulator that is able to boot in PS3. Shouldn't it be possible to emulate Amiga custom chips with SPEs etc. That should really make it pretty efficient emulator.

Now back to :sleep:

Well if that is the case then why not focus on JIT for PPC platforms? Then it would be possible to load up a small footprint linux and load UAE that way and have pretty fast emulation. There is already www.xamiga.net with a little modification and working JIT this should be possible to be run on PS3

BTW the guy who is working on X-Amiga is already working on a PPC port. Maybe we could donate a PS3 for him ;) and few other coders to aid him in the job if he wants.
