'''Xenia''' is an experimental, open-source [[Xbox 360 emulators|Xbox 360 emulator]] for Windows and, to a lesser extent, Linux (through [[Wine]]). Outside of Microsoft's own backward compatibility on successive consoles, Xenia is the first and only unofficial Xbox 360 emulator that exists.

This requires a bit of explaining.
 +
 
 +
When the Nintendo Wii was launched, it introduced native backward compatibility with the GameCube, allowing memory cards and GameCube controllers to be used with GameCube games. This is widely known and it allowed [[Dolphin]] to support the Wii early in its open-source era. However, this compatibility was lost when Nintendo released newer models called the Wii: Family Edition (although the ports were merely stripped from the casing; the circuit board still contains the areas where the connectors would go, see Wikipedia's section on it) and the Wii Mini (which also lacks an SD card slot as well.) Also on the Wii U, the GameCube ports don't exist at all, only being offered afterward as a USB peripheral in order to play Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.
 +
 
 +
However, homebrew developer FIX94 has developed an interpreter that allows all versions of the Wii (and the Wii U) that can run homebrew to read and run GameCube games, not only from a disc, but from SD cards and USB devices too. This comes with the added benefit that more controllers are supported past the normal GameCube ones, which makes it possible to play on consoles that don't have GCN controller ports.
 +
 
 +
Some notable features are the ability to use other controllers like the Classic Controller, Wiimote+Nunchuck, and some HID USB controllers, memory card emulation, playing TRIFORCE arcade games (after converted to an .iso), and recently Broadband Adapter emulation using the Wii's wireless communications.

Xenia originally began development in early 2013 as a side project by Ben Vanik.<ref>[https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/commit/30bde439f7db22a35595689ca434756707bb8391 Ben Vanik's first commit]. Jan 10, 2013.</ref> It was the first emulator to run a commercial Xbox 360 game, Frogger 2.<ref name="Ben Vanik">{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAk0_jidpA0|title=Xenia Xbox 360 Emulator: Frogger 2 first run|publisher=Youtube|accessdate=2018-05-23|date=2014-03-24}}</ref> Up until 2018, progress continued steadily until the developers hit a roadblock in accurately emulating Xenos, the GPU of the Xbox 360.

For the next three years, an active contributor named Triang3l completely rewrote the GPU implementation with the primary goal of addressing this. Once implemented, it more than doubled performance.<ref name="xenia">{{cite web|url=https://xenia.jp/updates/2021/04/27/leaving-no-pixel-behind-new-render-target-cache-3x3-resolution-scaling.html|title=Leaving No Pixel Behind: New Render Target Cache, 3x3 Resolution Scaling & Three Years in Xenia’s GPU Emulation|author=Triang3l}}.</ref> Triang3l also built a different, faster and more accurate memory emulation, which should lead to less broken vertices and textures being seen in-game.

For proper handling of the GPU's capabilities, Xenia now requires a specific feature of Direct3D 12 called Rasterizer-Ordered Views which is limited only to newer cards.<ref>Margen67. [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/FAQ#what-is-rov FAQ]. ''§ What is ROV?'' "Using the Rasterizer-Ordered Views (ROV) feature of Direct3D 12 allows Xenia to overcome [slow performance and unfixable transparency issues] by doing blending and depth/stencil testing manually in pixel shaders, rendering directly to the 10 MB buffer. This allows for much higher performance since there's no expensive data copying, and better accuracy because of no pixel format limitations. [...] However, this is a hardware feature, and thus on older graphics cards, Xenia is limited to the RT path."</ref> Xenia is capable of 3x3 upscaling, but such a feature is resource intensive and can only be accomplished with high-end GPUs at the moment.

The file can be opened and edited with any text editor without having to change the file extension and can be found under the filepath "...\Users\User\Documents\Xenia" along with shader cache and per-game files when using windows. GPU options such as v-sync, resolution scale, and much more can be found in the xenia.config.toml file.

If you are trying to emulate Xbox Live Arcade titles then the line "license_mask = 0" should be changed to "license_mask = 1". The demo mode and full game files for XBLA titles are actually identical, and this option allows the games to exit demo mode.

Includes Wii-HERETIC, Wii-HEXEN, Wii-STRIFE

WiiMednafen has not been programmed to work in PAL systems and it will have black bars on top and bottom of the screen leading to a sort of widescreen stretch effect. Double-strike mode (240p) will not work properly on PAL systems even on a CRT and regardless of the cables used.

This requires a bit of explaining.

When the Nintendo Wii was launched, it introduced native backward compatibility with the GameCube, allowing memory cards and GameCube controllers to be used with GameCube games. This is widely known and it allowed Dolphin to support the Wii early in its open-source era. However, this compatibility was lost when Nintendo released newer models called the Wii: Family Edition (although the ports were merely stripped from the casing; the circuit board still contains the areas where the connectors would go, see Wikipedia's section on it) and the Wii Mini (which also lacks an SD card slot as well.) Also on the Wii U, the GameCube ports don't exist at all, only being offered afterward as a USB peripheral in order to play Super Smash Bros. for Wii U.

However, homebrew developer FIX94 has developed an interpreter that allows all versions of the Wii (and the Wii U) that can run homebrew to read and run GameCube games, not only from a disc, but from SD cards and USB devices too. This comes with the added benefit that more controllers are supported past the normal GameCube ones, which makes it possible to play on consoles that don't have GCN controller ports.

Some notable features are the ability to use other controllers like the Classic Controller, Wiimote+Nunchuck, and some HID USB controllers, memory card emulation, playing TRIFORCE arcade games (after converted to an .iso), and recently Broadband Adapter emulation using the Wii's wireless communications.
