| Who is Mootley? | What is SHIvEr?? | ||||||||||||||||
| Mootley is just a nick I chose for myself. My name is Andre�, male, 15, Brazillian, and I am part of the SHIvEr SNES emulation project. My other nick is midnight (lowercase letters!!!!!!!!!), and I have a PowerMac 603e (thinking seriously on buying a G3, but due to the current financial situation, I thing I won't get one until mid-1999 =P ), and a Pentium. Uck!! More info on me please wait until I make a definitive homepage (as you may have noticed, I am using this homebuilder stuff from FC for now...). |
SHIvEr is an acronym for (S)uper Nintendo Entertainment System (H)igly (I)mpro(v)ed (E)mulato(r). It's the first Brazillian SNES emulator, and, believe me, IT WILL ROCK! The following people are part of the SHIvEr group: o Andre� Braga (Mootley) - GUI design, info seeker, docs, ports, ideas, concept, e-mail answering, source code revisements, computers for internal testing. o Jorus Lann (Lanntaste) - Programming, GUI design, source code optimisations, ports, ideas, computers for internal testing. o Marcelo Sampaio (no nick yet...) - Programming, ideas, ports, code optimisations, c4it. More people to come! Current %age of emulation done: 3% (Jorus is on vacation, Marcelo is reading docs, I am at school, stuff like that...) Expect several updates to this page, as I'll try to update it every day I connect... | ||||||||||||||||

Last update 2/23/1998 (hum, 21st. century compatible =) 02:42:10 GMT -2 SHIvEr features: -A nice GUI; -Linux i386, MacOS (PPC) and DOS ports (it is really hard to try to program an emulator that runs at decent speeds on Win95, so do not expect a 95 port; NT port is planned; ports for Rhapsody i386 and Rhapsody PPC are planned; Java port is planned); -Great speed (minimum reqs: 100 MHz PPC for the MacOS port; 90 MHz Pentium for the DOS port; Linux, NT, Java* and Rhapsody minimum processors and proc. speeds have not been defined yet. * - And this is going to be hard to define as Java is multiplatform and its performande depends mostly on how good and fast is your JVM...) -Stereo, realtime sound (and, hopefully, all those DSP sound effects present on SNES will be emulated too!) -WE WILL TRY TO EMULATE THE SuperFX CHIP, BUT DO NOT EXPECT IT TO BE PRESENT ON THE EARLY ALPHAS/BETAS/GAMAS/DELTAS BECAUSE NO OTHER SNES EMULATOR HAS EMULATED THIS CHIP AND WE HAVE ONLY A FEW INFO ON IT. If you have info on this chip PLEASE contact us!! -Ability to load-save state of the game -VESA2 graphics (Allegro or MGL, we will decide soon...) for the PC versions -DirectX fot the NT version? Who knows... -Hum, as I remember or think on other cool features that's it. But that's not all, believe me! SHIvEr will make other emulators eat dust!! Well well. All abovementioned products/technologies ate trademarks of their respective owners. What else shall I say??? | |||||||||||||||||
