Hi all,
Just wanted to pop back on to apologise to everyone who was disappointed that I could never release my Epoch emulator. I fully accept any criticism
Basically what happened:
I had the emulation finished and working pretty much perfectly within 4-5 months of starting development. The problems came when I was finalising the graphics engine. I was using the Microsoft WPF framework and unfortunately I discovered way down the line that it had major performance issues. I spent months trying to work around these issues but I just couldn't get it working well enough.
Sadly as I was getting married and had much larger work commitments, I felt I had no choice but to shelve the project. I just didn't have the time to re-design and re-write the graphics engine and designer.
So anyway, it's great to hear that Wizard has released a new version! Over the next few weeks I'll go through all my many boxes of Epoch stuff I've collected over the years and make sure I've uploaded everything.
This is the web site I used to keep track of the Epoch ROM resources I have:
This may not be fully up to date and I may have already shared most of this. I think I have roughly 120 complete sets (sound and game). If anyone wants anything immediately off this list please let me know.
Many thanks
