ZSNES is back!Finally we'll have high-speed SNES emulation
I'll stick with regular zsnes.
>>737858087If your PC can't handle snes9x, 4chan would unronitcally set it on fire.
>>737858087I'll stick with playing SNES games on my SNES
>>737858087>high-speed SNES emulationbut why?
>>737858226zsnes was already highspeed since it didn't accurately emulate slowdowns of the console. this can be appreciated in games like megamanx2
>>737858224sounds like a hassle.
>>737858206Spbp it has its charm and nostalgic value
this...... is the future of the snes.........
Someone tell me how they managed to fuck up emulating Mega Man X so hard it triggered the copy protections people figured out how to get around in the mid 90s, including themselves with the original verison of ZSNES.
I mean, what more can nu-ZSNES bring to the table for enhancing SNES games that hasn't already been accomplished?>Overclocking>MSU support>HD mode 7>Widescreen>Gaudy filters
>/v/ - youtube screencaps
>>737858087Who fucking asked for this?
why does SNES emulation need to run on the GPU?what benefit does this have over running it on the CPU like we've been doing without issue for the past 2-3 decades?
SNES unironically has no games.
>>737858853>why not?
>>737858735graphics replacement, better textures or add 3d depth.audio improvement quality and samples replacement.game overclock.super Zsnes is not meant to be an accurate emulator because there's already other projects like that. is aimed to be more like an enhancer. btw according to the einterview zophar did to the origigal dev time ago is not zeeSnes but ZEDsnes.
>>737858853this was done in order to apply beter filters and graphics replacement/mods
>>737859143I see, so it's for zoomers.
>>737858087They can do whatever as long as they keep the fucking beautiful menu screen with the pixelated snowflakes fallingIt's on the same level as Winamp in terms of soulful PC GUIs
>>737858087Emulation on the GPU is interesting but this is not something we absolutely need. This is 100% a programming experiment.
>>737859198Even Snes9x which is an emulator from back then also has the ability to use shaders and such and has for years.
>>737859008Sonic the hedhehog, ristar and doom II
>>737859303Again... Why does that require running on a GPU?
near/byuu is still alive judging by how much that tranny is trying to dog pile on zsnes lol
>>737859143>graphics replacement/modswhere are people posting SNES mods? I'm assuming we aren't talking about romhacks right?
>>737859370It improves performance when running higher resolutions with a lot of complex effects. Good CRT shaders are pretty demanding for example.
>>737859008They made over 1,700 games for the damn thing across all regionsIt is surprising though how much of that is shovelware and licensed garbage, you really wouldn't see it to that extent again until the ds/wii era
>>737859457no idea if there's mod yet. the tools will be made into the SZsnes but they are still in development. watch the video.
>>737859237For me, it was the smoke effect
>>737858776People that still won't stop using the old ZSNES because of their precious menu snow.
>>737859481Got it, so it's for zoomers.
Still using Snes9x
>>737859527for me, the water ripple
>>737859536both have snow. it was important.
>>737858087moved to 9x too long ago to come back
>hey we have this perfectly functional software that's been emulating games for longer than the average /v/irgin has been alive>CHANGE IT SO IT USES THE GPU AND RUNS ON UNITYwhy
>>737859517can I chatgpt mod games so they all have boobies in them?
>>737859649One of the developers is having a schizophrenic episode and is trying to appease the ZSNES shareholders that exist only in his mind.
>>737859649I think is just a wrapper for the gpu part.still a disappointment, now the emu will be 1800mb
behold 3d mode7
>>737859559You are a zoomer if you think SNES games had that pixelshit look on an real consumer tv they were originally played on
>>737859820you are a retard if you think a CRT filter requires running on a GPU
>>737859914if you want it to run complex ones like shit on modern resolutions. yeah.
>>737859760Those are fucking huge gumdrops.
>>737858724Is that what it was?>load Mega Man X>pick sting chameleon>do literally anything, shoot something, get hit, pick up something>load into immediate stage clear>use another emulator with the same rom>it doesn't do that>never use zsnes again
>>737858853>why does SNES emulation need to run on the GPU?Because it is overlaying graphics in real time that can tailored to all kinds of things. Watch the video on its unique features.
>>737860531>>737860531>SAAR THE GRAPHICS ARE WERY GOOD SAAR PLEASE DO THE NEEDFUL AND REDEEM THE BLOB FILTER
>>737860185Yup that's one of the effects it can do. Usually it then dumps you back on the intro stage right after.
>>737858629Looks like shit.
>>737859482The PS2 did have its fair share of shovelware, though not to the extent of the DS/Wii era. In general shovelware producers just always go wherever the install base is highest.
>>737858087>Gives special thanks to Byuu>Even to he originally wanted to kill off Zsnes because it wasn't austically authenticKek, that cubfag can't stop losing even in hell
>>737858087>closed source unityshit that's probably malwareI genuinely doubt this is actually by the authors of the original zsnes. Are we sure this isn't just a scam?
>>737862780Watch the interview with zophar. It's the original dev.
>>737863085How the mighty fall...
explain to me, a non-autistic and employed person, what this means and why i shouldn't keep using Mesen
>>737863246sZnes is emulation not with maximum accuracy in mind. the games just work. autists that look for shit like the console running at exact 6.5mhz and all sorts of bs are not the target.
>>737863390Then mesen-hd or bsnes-hd.
>>737863390i just use mesen because it lets me play shit from several consoles, not just snes. what is the advantage of zsnes over mesen in that regard? i dont care about autistic accuracy bullshit either
>>737863427they can't replace assets for 3d or replace audio samples or other things. why do you even need to marry yourself to 1 emulator.
>>737863482same could be said about mame or frontends like retroarch. what's wrong with having more options?
>>737863495Because that's fucking retarded. If I'm playing a SNES game, I don't want 3D garbage. At most I want mode 7 to render at native resolution.
>>737863595then don't use it you dipshit. no one is forcing you.
>>737863632>why should i use this?>for [features you won't use]>so i will not use it>then don't use it dipshit
>>737863581bro. i am not saying its bad to have options. i am literally asking, as someone who is not into this, what the big difference is. thats all
>>737858087No point when bsnes exists or even snes9x exists.
>>737863902>why should i use this?>for [features people would use]>so i will use it>then use itdo you really things things are only about you?>>737863923none. because is not even fully released yet. give it time and people would do mods packs that are different from what other emulators can do. If you don't care about that then is not for you.
>>737859067This is the only thing I'm interested in. No more fucking around with MSU-1 hacks. Replacing audio samples on the fly sounds cool as fuck.
>>737858087I remember this fucking emu got keked by Earthbound anti piracy so I got stuck halfway through the game when we turned into robots and gave up on the series
>>737864935>halfwaythat's the end
>>737858629LOOKIN' GOOD
>>737859237
The widescreen thing is nice if it somehow allows users to make custom patches that lets sprites load properly in the widescreen mode. Everything else looks horrible
>>737864084>we are entering a new age of romhacks that only work on zsnes
>>737859067it's a bit of a shame that people are only focusing entirely on the material textures like that one super mario world screenshot and thinking this is all that it's doing.
>>737858629NINTENDO CONTRATA ESTE HOMBRE
>>737858629who the fuck asked for this show me so i can stab them
>joins LRG to shit out SNES ROMs and charge you $30 for them>leaves because repackaging PS1 ISOs with an unlicensed version of PCSX-Rearmed for the easiest fucking paycheck in your life wasn't enoughThank you Dimitri for the biggest scam in the industry!
>>737863246At this point most machines will be capable of running accurate SNES emulators at full speed and with more features anyway, this is just vestigial.
>>737866671You're focusing on the wrong feature.
>>737858087ZSNES was always inferior to SNES9x, even back in the day, and infinitely moreso now.
>>737860531Damn dlss 5.0 looking good
>>737858087Znes works perfectly so why would I use something else? (I won't use something else anyway)
>>737859536The snow is not important. It's just a cute little cherry on top of the rest of the GUI and optional.
I don't know why you would even bother posting about it in /v/.Just look at this thread. Everyone has the wrong impression, and don't care to learn about what's different about it, they just come in and make a quip thinking they're clever about not using it like they're a Marvel character or something.
>>737859481>higher resolutions???You stretch to full screen and get perfect pixel accuracy.
>>737859237>WinampGlad to see I'm not the only one using it because it's perfect.
>>737866767if you need more accuracy than snes9x there's something wrong with you and that's just as light as zsnes and could probably run on a refrigerator nowadaysznes was always legacy, it was the first really functional snes emulator>>737866867nah snes9x had horrible compatibility and crashed like crazy in the 90si guess it was better than the older stuff though but those barely even worked
>>737859198graphic replacement hacks have been a thing since the 90s. this emulator is, for the first time, going to allow people to create next-level graphic replacement hacks on the same tier as some commercial releases like Shantae Advance having hi-res portraits when running on PC despite being an emulated GBA ROM. Except it's universal. It doesn't require specialized, per game tools that further required reverse engineering those games first.This is huge for a number of reasons. But I'll be the first to admit that it's not something that everyone would be into.
>>737859370Why are you on a video games board if you don't have a gpu?
>>737867274>for the first timeisn't there an nes emulator that does this already? mesen, I think?
>>737863581Retroarch has done more to kill emulation than any company.
>>737867395Ugh, I have not seen a single fucking texture pack for Mesen that actually looks good.
>>737866867ZSNES runs well on craptops for simple games. It sucks donkey dick for SA-1 games.
>>737867395Yes, Mesen supports HD NES packs. ZSNES is a little different because it's actual material shading plus the greater tile variety of SNES games makes it less jarring
>>737867498blame the people that want all in one solutions. also the retards that keep thinking is an emulator.
ZSNES 1.51, home...
>>737858087The new UI is disgusting.
>>737858087They should make a high speed super optimized ZPS5 instead.
>>737859649They also nuked the original ZSNES website including the forums. No way to go look at those old discussions now I guess. :( (archive.org is really bad at archiving forums in general)>>737859237The original also had a water effect as an option you know.
>>737858087So it's no longer a poorly coded Super Nintendo emulator?
Oh nevermind I see there's an archive there now at /old/ though forums link doesn't work.>>737872082Yeah the font is ugly.
>>737872419It was never poorly coded, it just had other priorities than accuracy autism which were exactly right for the time.
>>737872487BAZINGA
