I've ...First of all, thanks for all your work!<br /><br />I've got a n00b question, but something I've wanted for years is the source code to Xbomberbox (popular home-brew xbox game), but the author's email no longer works (for years..), the next best bet would be emulating it on my PC. Is there any pointers on the net on what's involved in adding support for an additional game in the emulator? I've got a programming background, free time, and a willingness to learn, just not sure where to start.<br /><br />Thanks againChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04621306861666189944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053562213260104646.post-91744576386228627342010-08-06T15:14:48.263-07:002010-08-06T15:14:48.263-07:00I have nothing significant to add.

The problem with HLE is not directly in the symbol detection, but in the fact that if you detect one you almost inevitably have to detect them all. Right now Turok crashes due to an access violation in the WMV/XMV decoding functions. I am still looking through things, but so far it appears the current version actually detects more functions that the main trunk version, even though the main trunk can still run Turok without issue. The problem with actually successfully detecting functions is that now those function no longer get called to set the various internal variables that other functions, that may not be detected yet, would have otherwise used. In this case since its video processing related it could easily be Sound or Graphics related, not sure yet. Turok, Rayman, Blood Wake, and a few others are all crashing in about this same area for me. Hopefully it will just end up being an undetected function. i am going to be doing some comparisons between the detections of the trunk, svn, and dxbx to see where there are any mismatches.revel8nhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15794152049263231854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053562213260104646.post-85920255689144176872010-07-23T05:48:22.982-07:002010-07-23T05:48:22.982-07:00Oh, and perhaps your new OOVPA messed up some othe...Oh, and perhaps your new OOVPA messed up some other patch locations. Try to compare your previous symbol locations with the new ones; There will probably be differences, which would explain why Turok doesn't run anymore. Symbol detection is really the achilles' heel of HLE.Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00573028757978933821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053562213260104646.post-61963350502361259012010-07-23T05:10:04.747-07:002010-07-23T05:10:04.747-07:00Eh, I don't know NtQueryFileAttributes? Did yo...Eh, I don't know NtQueryFileAttributes? Did you mean NtQueryInformationFile or NtQueryFullAttributesFile perhaps? In Dxbx I've patched all functions that recieve a POBJECT_ATTRIBUTES argument, via one generic function. This way, I not only take care of the ANSI<>Unicode difference, but also honour symbolic links, device-paths, access to the raw config partition, etc. Just take a look at my sources to see how this works...Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00573028757978933821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3053562213260104646.post-17629093416443607492010-07-21T09:20:23.681-07:002010-07-21T09:20:23.681-07:00Maybe you could upload broken sources as a separat...Maybe you could upload broken sources as a separate branch?

I think in the months to come there will be some nice changes happening.
