18:52 🔗 SketchCow bai: Great work
19:59 🔗 bai sounds like he got a lot further last night, yeah?
20:00 🔗 bai well, this morning
22:36 🔗 godane has quit IRC (Read error: Operation timed out)
22:47 🔗 godane has joined #jsmess
23:22 🔗 SketchCow Yeah
23:22 🔗 SketchCow Well, he has all the tools and he got it to compile, so now he can do the comparing work, etc.
23:23 🔗 SketchCow I can't think of the last time someone went from "what's all this" to a webpage with a working compile in 5 hours
23:51 🔗 bai yeah, I mean at least half of it for new users is just getting a working MAME build environment going
23:51 🔗 bai for him it's just "run it with a couple different options" :D
23:53 🔗 fzzzy so if i want to try compiling it to asm.js i should get a regular mame build going first?
23:53 🔗 bai yup
23:54 🔗 bai you'll need a full native build anyway in order to determine which drivers to compile when doing per-system asmjs builds
23:54 🔗 bai a full build of all systems to asmjs still ends up being quite large, so we're still splitting things out
23:54 🔗 fzzzy I'd like to try adding color to the mac emulation
23:56 🔗 bai oh, the mac emulation is currently handled by a separate emulator, pce.js. MAME does have mac support, and I think their version does have color, too - I forget the exact reasons for why the archive went with pce.js over mame for the osx stuff, but it was likely speed and/or "mame wasn't ready yet but then they fixed some stuff and now maybe it is"
23:57 🔗 bai macos, not osx :D
23:58 🔗 fzzzy hmm, ok. i'd be interested in getting pce.js running too. also, i'd love to try compiling mini vmac to asm.js or wasm since it is my favorite mac emulator, but that's probably a stretch
23:58 🔗 SketchCow So.
23:58 🔗 SketchCow 1. You don't want to add color to PCE.js
23:58 🔗 SketchCow 2. We have Mac emulation with color in MAME
23:58 🔗 SketchCow 3. We aren't using it just like we aren't using a pile of platforms because of The Issue
23:59 🔗 SketchCow 4. We have someone working on The Issue
23:59 🔗 fzzzy I'll get mame building a normal binary first
23:59 🔗 fzzzy heh, what's The Issue?
