>Bittorrent over I2P
That's still BitTorrent as you can't enforce people to use I2P trackers exclusively (the torrent hash is the same and people can still redistribute the torrent using the DHT). Public I2P trackers are still public trackers. As for VPN, you can still set up your own for now (with a cheap anonoymous VPS) if you're really worried about commercial VPN implementing future KYC laws. Don't get demoralized by the ambient noise called "the news" and trolls though.

True, over the I2P protocol, not tcp or udp, works differently and the IPs are hidden from the network. Qtorrent already supports it.
It will not survive as a torrent though, nobody is going to seed 400tb day and night unless they want pay for a seedbox and then it's back to stage 1.

That's why you usually split these large collections in smaller chunks. Having a (or even multiple) torrent by systems/stores should be fine. You can even add a date for collections that are likely to be updated. Public torrent retention isn't always that bad though. If you don't split the swarm between multiple identical torrents and have a decent amount of traffic (peers), it can be seeded for years.

honestly if I ran a site like myrient I would change the domain every couple weeks so randoms wouldn't even know how to access it at any given moment

for added benefit I'd leave the old urls up with a fake website and a bunch of ads so I can profit off retards following outdated /r/eddit posts

Never again.

Is there still decent headroom left to meaningfully speed up the 86Box recompiler in future releases, or is the hardcore low-level cycle-accurate approach dooming it to only tiny, negligible perf gains from here on out?
Also, any realistic chance of finally fixing the annoying I/O and file explorer slowdowns (especially in Win9x)?

The emulator still has tons of random crashes and compatibility fuckups, yet looking at the repo it seems like the devs are mostly piling on more new obscure hardware emulation instead of stabilizing what's already there.
How accurate/complete are these newly added cards and machines anyway? Feels like they're chasing breadth over depth/fixing the existing breakage.

Gemini:
The I/O and File Explorer slowdowns in Win9x are often tied to how the PCI Bus is emulated.

In many current 86Box builds, disk I/O effectively "locks" the emulation thread for a split second.

The devs have been working on Threaded I/O. By moving the disk and network emulation to a separate host thread, the CPU recompiler doesn't have to wait for a virtual "hard drive" to finish its task. This is currently in the experimental stages (often found in the "manager" builds or dev branches) and is the most realistic path to fixing that Win9x "jerkiness."

How about improving QEMU's MTTCG, so it would make software way more portable and we wouldn't have to depend on Microslop WHPX anymore on Winblows?
Do you think meaningful performance gains are actually possible in the future if people like killjew focused on that part?

>>558869894
sorry schizo, I'm not giving you any files for free
>>558869919
dude killjew is not in charge of developing QEMU, you realize this? Only upstream QEMU can fix TCG or implement qemu-3dfx in the main branch, so the seething faggot above me can enjoy it fot free
instead of begging killjew you should contact QEMU devs

>>558870232
>killjew is not in charge of developing QEMU
I'm aware of that bro, I just wonder if it's possible to make that dream come true.
That would solve the puzzle in the long run for WinXP and late Win9x emulation without depending on WHPX.
I don't know the exact potential of MTTCG, but right now the performance isn't enough for WinXP or Mac OS X on PPC, probably needs a ton of optimization and dev time.

kvm is basically the only way to go right now

>>558870470
in theory it should be possible, but ultimately it comes down to upstream QEMU
btw WHPX is not THAT bad, it used to work great for me, granted it might have regressed since then

Honestly, I'm fine with 86Box not getting faster. Its approach guarantees it's never going to be the go-to solution for late 90's/early 2000's Windows games (QEMU is evidently our best hope for those). It has its niche and it *almost* fills it well. But those random stalls and performance drops as well as remaining inherited bugs from PCem are definitely a stain, and I think their priority should definitely be on ironing those issues out.

Now, if they can later on attach virtualization and GPU passthrough akin to QEMU, I wouldn't complain, but I won't hold my breath.

>>558870902
please, read the 86box FAQ and temper your expectations
they have an entire section explaining why people should stop asking for newer CPUs emulation, why QEMU's approach is not feasible, and why it all comes down to CPU manufacturers to up the clock speeds
it's not going to happen, your only hope is someone equally competent to kjew forking qemu-3dfx and distributing it for free
that's it

>>558871076
gonna denounce to qemu that someone is using their free and open source work to make money and wait for them to sue him instead

>>558871076
Ok? I just said I won't hold my breath for it taking the QEMU approach, and that I'm fine with it not getting faster (because it doesn't really need to be for the niche it covers). I said it has issues with random performance drops (the whole IO access stalls deal I and others ITT have been harping about) and other bugs, and that they should look at that.

>>558871219
it's groundhog day, I've been reading this exact sentence for almost 6 years now lol

WHPX is trash tier, bro. Yeah, performance wise it kinda gets the job done, but the implementation is absolute garbage and it's pure Micro$oft slop, and fuck depending on that proprietary crap.
KVM is perfect, straight-up king if you're on Linux. Near-native speeds, no drama, actual hardware accel done right without affecting host perf. etc.

VMs on windows have always been terrible, there's a reason not even microsoft uses windows on their servers, they use linux.

>>558871870
yeah I know, I'm on Linux
well, looks like the only option is to ditch Wangblows and embrace the superior OS
or just run those games natively on your host, apparently they run out of the box, no need for QEMU or 86box

>>558872018
Yeah, I always hated using Hyper-V/WHPX on these machines, left a horrible taste in my mouth that never went away...
KVM is good, no doubt, but late Win9x and WinXP emulation really shouldn't depend on VM acceleration at all.
I hope in the future we get a proper MTTCG solution that actually works well, something that makes it fully portable, OS-agnostic software emulation without needing host-specific crap like WHPX.

>>558872180
>something that makes it fully portable
I think VMWare .vmdk files were essentially portable VMs, but VMWare went to shit after Broadcom bought them, I suppose QEMU doesn't bundle an entire VM in a single file that is portable across systems then

>>558872180
>I'm hoping that software emulation will magically become faster than hardware accelerated virtualization
ain't happening, and that's not even the real issue with qemu-3dfx, the real issue is the paywalled WineD3D binaries

>>558872290
.vmdk files are disk images
what are you fags talking about portability? QEMU binaries do not require installation and are less than 30MiBs, disk images are also portable obviously and they don't even need to be in qcow formats, QEMU is capable of reading all image disk files, including vmdk

>>558872508
but you can't port qemu from windows to linux freely because no kvm on windows

>>558872508
>QEMU binaries do not require installation
we're talking about acceleration, not the binary itself bro. On Linux it's not a huge problem, you've got KVM ready to go. But on Windows, depending on WHPX is a massive no-no.
It's proprietary Micro$lop garbage with janky implementation, and even when it "works" the perf can be meh or buggy. We need proper portable solution that doesn't lock you into host-specific crap.

>hoping that software emulation will magically become faster than hardware accelerated virtualization
Of course that's never gonna happen bro, pure software emulation can't beat native hardware accel in raw speed.
But even if MTTCG (or whatever equivalent) hits an acceptable perf level someday, that'd be good enough for a lot of us.

true portable software emulation that runs decently cross-platform, no more begging for OS-locked accelerators and host dependencies would make everything way less painful.. Just solid, agnostic TCG that doesn't suck for old Win9x/XP or PPC Mac shit

>nooo you can't criticize me!!!
why are they so mentally fragile

>>558873031
but you can use the same disk file accross different systems, but yeah you need different binaries for each OS
>>558873274
yeah I get you, but don't get your hopes up, Win9x are officially not supported by QEMU or VMware, for QEMU specifically you need a patch from JHRobotics to even get Win98 running without a gazillion run32.dll errors, so looking forward things seem extremely bleak for 32-bit software support

>>558873274
XQEMU and Xemu kinda already make that possible for emulating PIII@733 MHz, so yeah, I think it's totally feasible to pull off something similar.
Sure, it's not exactly the same situation (Xbox vs WinXP ACPI machine), but the potential is definitely there with TCG.

If they can get playable speeds emulating a ~733 MHz SSE supported Pentium III-class chip in software, imagine what focused MTTCG work could do for WinXP or late 9x, decent perf without needing WHPX crutches?

with CPUs being 7ghz in 2 generations (4 years) I think all emulation will be largely solved at that point (for those who can afford)

>>558873517
> but don't get your hopes up, Win9x are officially not supported by QEMU or VMware, for QEMU specifically you need a patch from JHRobotics to even get Win98 running without a gazillion run32.dll errors

Yup, that's exactly why forking QEMU specifically for this shit is the move, like what killjew is doing with qemu-3dfx.
His approach nails the 3D acceleration side, now we just need the same energy poured into TCG/MTTCG improvements.
A dedicated fork focused on beefing up portable TCG could make everyone's life way easier. Potential is there if someone actually commits to it.

>>558874350
would you donate to this?
realistically speaking, Win9x emulation is so niche, there's barely enough people to commit on such a massive undertaking, let alone competent programmers who are also willing to do it for free
I mean that's why nobody has managed to fork qemu-3dfx successfully, not enough people care about it, especially considering the multiple alternatives that exist for late 90s games on modern systems

>>558874350
or the vulkan guys can translate those old instructions to vulkan, they expanded that a lot last year with direct3d 5, 6, 7, 9 support being added

is azahar the current best way to emulate 3ds?

>>558874604
>considering the multiple alternatives that exist for late 90s games on modern systems
None of those are actually convenient or count as proper solutions. It's just a bunch of half-assed wrappers, hacks/patches/workarounds, or leaning on Micro$oft's broken WOW64, emulateheap crap, compatibility shims, etc.
We still don't have a solid all-in-one emulation solution for late Win9x (D3D7 era) or WinXP (D3D8-9 stuff). Everything's short-sighted band-aids until a real long-term, reliable emulation layer shows up.
Potential is definitely there (look at how xemu handle PIII@733 in software), but as you said, years later and nobody seems interested enough to push it hard.
Real hardware for those ecosystems is ancient now, relying on flaky old rigs is like refusing to emulate PS2 and demanding you keep a real one around forever. I think it's time now, that excuse "it still runs on modern Winblows muh" is expired, as Winblows has gone full shit

>>558873385

>>558875714
those "it just works" types have always existed bro, they've been spamming the same cope since the XP days for every piece of software out there.

Every time a better solution shows up (or Windows inevitably breaks more shit), they just shift goalposts: "mine works fine," "runs perfect on my Win11," "compatibility mode carries," etc. Bunch of normie corpo-slop enjoyers who can't handle anything outside the walled garden.
Reality is, Winblows has gone full mad bollocks now, forced Copilot AI slop everywhere, telemetry bloat making everything sluggish, out-of-band emergency patches just to unfuck the previous fuckup. Microsoft even admitted they went off the rails and are "swarming" to fix basics while dialing back AI cancer.
That kind of instability is exactly why we need proper portable emulation to take off.
I think we're gonna see some impressive progress for emulating that era in the near future, people are finally fed up with Redmond's decaying dumpster fire, and that frustration/popularity spike could actually motivate devs to make the dream real. No more relying on flaky modern Windows or dying real hardware.

I sent the email, now we wait.

Have any of the DOSBox forks gotten better at working with Windows 9x? Last I fucked with DOSBox-X, it was unexpectedly sluggish running even some 3.x-era edutainment titles, and it just felt janky overall. I wouldn't expect it to run Windows as well as 86Box, but still

As a follow-up to myself, it looks like it's the GPU tuning. When it's in desktop mode the performance is completely stable and uses about 20%. Clock speed maxes out at around 1700hz. As soon as it gets focus the usage jumps up to around 70% and starts pushing 2500Hz.

Since Myrient is dying I guess it's finally time for me to figure out how to setup Mame.

Do I need a specific romset with a specific version (and if so, where do I get that) and is there any way to do decent shaders in it?

where are the dlc in myrient? I can't find it in no-intro folder
is the website incomplete?

anyone know how to set up PPSSPP ad-hoc servers? I know there are a couple of community ones but I prefer doing it myself where possible

>>558983238
think I sorted it by using the SDL version rather than the Qt version

>>558985361
Amd had broken vulkan implementation one every single platform and gpu. If it works, it works with background errors.

Regarding N64 archival, is the ByteSwapped worth scrapping or should I stick to BigEndian? Both sets appear identical.

>>558992046
I'd stick with BigEndian, since it can be converted back into the former.

>>558991415
am i supposed to hold scroll lock while pressing page up and page down? or jus tpress page up and page down by themselves
doesnt work on the linux version of dosbox regardless

>>558992046
Go for BigEndian, it's the proper format. Byteswapped is some sort of relic from when people didn't know how to dump thing properly.

Use DOSBox-Pure if you're aiming for a standalone.

>>558990952
Pray tell me, what's their source of IBM PC redump isos?

>>558992476
Got it, though I doubt I'll get the Gamecube and PS1-2 ISOs at the crawl the download speed got reduced to. I was late by a couple of days it seems. Already got NES and SNES (why is it that only the former is divided into headerless and headered?). Currently halfway through the GBA roms but I'm skipping anything aftermarket and/or private. E-reader is up in the air. PC-98 seems woefully incomplete too but I'm guessing porn is banned there?

>>558992959
wdym standalone?
i just like having dosbox load up in fullscreen
ill have to set it to 1920x1080, but then the screen gets centered and looks tiny

>>558993608
I figured you might prefer standalone emus, but Pure is also on RA. (Which makes this whole fullscreen process a lot easier.)

>>558993754

individual emus
Hopefully you know what I mean, I know some anons don't like RA.

What did you use (Downthemall or Jdownloader?), when did you start, and how long did it take? Finally scrapped the GBA roms after 13 hours. Not liking the timeframe for the N64 romset.

>>559039009

gba roms and n64 you can find everywhere
I'm just gonna get 360 and ps3 dlcs

Is there a site that compares any ports a game has? I don't think I need Bomberman on four different systems for example.

>>559039474
youtube and wikipedia

>>559039145
I'm using Downthemall out of convenience and being too lazy to check of Jdownloader works on Linux/Ubuntu. I'm only getting things I know can be feasible emulated on either my PC or on official hardware. Insofar as the latter is concerned, only the PS2 and PS3 qualifies what with my jailbreaking the latter to run ISOs of both. Granted, PS2 ISOs need an annoying few extra steps. Pray for me.

And in case anyone's curious, the combined total of the NES romset is 1GB, give or take. 550MB if you only take headered or headerless. 3.7GB for SNES, but no telling if there's a header or not. GBA is now at Y and will likely stop at 13GB, give or take a decimal.

Not a site, but Retro Core's "Battle of the Ports" series is worth watching. (It'll save you from low effort Speccy-to-CPC/St-to-Amiga ports.)

>>559040387
BTW, I tend to hear mixed opinions regarding ports of Altered Beast. Some say the Genesis versions is the best home console version, while others say it's the PCE one. I fall into the latter category, since all the sprites and sounds are more arcade-accurate. (Hell, I never knew each Beast had their own roar until I played versions outside of the Genesis.)

they finally rate limited me

>>559040829
I like the Famicom version because it's weird, there's even an aquatic level.

>>559047359
Great mention! That port also has a mixed reception, ranging from good to terrible. Considering that I suffered through Lion King on the NES, you could do much worse.

turns out a lot of the games on my list I didn't get are actually pretty cool so I'll have to get them
my favorite square enix game is the last remnant so I have to give a chance to all those square games they launched outside the sony consoles

For me, the worst loss about this whole thing will be the ease with which you could grab games from the Total DOS Collection.

>>559051318
arent those old games tiny? just get the entire collection
