It for Windows, Linux and macOS that is still in very early in development.
==Overview==
One of the emulator's branches is based on [[Recommended N64 plugins|Angrylion]]'s MAME video implementation, which is highly accurate, although MarathonMan wants to write his own RDP in the future. The goal is to add additional full cycle accuracy.
One It is rapidly progressing to a usable state and is already capable of the emulator's branches is based playing many commercial ROMs with only minor issues. However, due to its extreme focus on accuracy, it will also require good hardware to play at decent speeds. It also lacks [[AngrylionDynamic recompilation|dynarec]]'s MAME video implementation, which until the next core rewrite is highly accuratecompleted. The emulator does have sound processing but not a UI yet, although MarathonMan wants to write his own RDP in the futurethere are already quite a few good unofficial frontends available ([https://github.

However, there are reports of people being able to run the emulator at decent framerates frame rates using at least an Intel i5 4670K, and the performance is getting slightly better with each release. MarathonMan is aiming for system requirements on the level of BSNESbsnes. Whether or not that's possible remains to be seen.

Disregard that, because his The CEN64 related videos are very particularly interesting. He did a framedump Gamax92 dumped the frames of a select number of games and put the images together into movies to show what the games would look like if there weren't any performance issues. Notice how many of the games shown are almost completely accurate to their console counterparts, save for a few hiccups. There are many parts of games shown that are notoriously difficult to emulate.
