23:25 🔗 SketchCow Eyyyyyy
23:25 🔗 db48x howdy
23:29 🔗 SketchCow We're having a delightful crapshow adding a fewture
23:29 🔗 SketchCow feature? Feature
23:29 🔗 SketchCow and I just found out my favorite deli had a covid outbreak
23:29 🔗 SketchCow so everything's great
23:30 🔗 db48x heh
23:31 🔗 db48x what feature are you trying to add?
23:31 🔗 SketchCow ruffle.
23:31 🔗 SketchCow We did a working version of adding CHD
23:31 🔗 SketchCow And now we have the ruffle guy adding ruffle
23:32 🔗 SketchCow difficulty level: The PR request sitting on emularity was done by someone with a great big heart, but apparently without the arcane knowledge that you should test your code.
23:32 🔗 db48x ah
23:33 🔗 SketchCow so we wasted time today thinking it was easy to click in.
23:33 🔗 SketchCow ANYWAY
23:33 🔗 SketchCow I am either going to have a hypochonriac covid moment, or not.
23:33 🔗 SketchCow But the general question is if you want to continue to run the emularity loader or if you'd like to go "nah, fuck those people"
23:33 🔗 SketchCow Either way is totally valid
23:34 🔗 db48x I'll look at the ruffle patch and see what I can see
23:35 🔗 SketchCow We have two sets of changes and a prototype loader.js
23:35 🔗 db48x can you guys update the PR?
23:35 🔗 SketchCow And we also have another set of suggestions to finally fix the "keep old filesystems only on DOSBOX" issue, although at the cost of the currently saved systems
23:36 🔗 db48x mmm
23:36 🔗 SketchCow Anyway, the general question still olds.
23:36 🔗 SketchCow holds
23:36 🔗 SketchCow If you wanted to stay with this little mess or move on.
23:37 🔗 db48x I can spare a few hours for it
23:37 🔗 SketchCow I respect either choice.
23:37 🔗 SketchCow Well, I'd rather bank the hours for later, since right now it's all experimental mess.
23:37 🔗 SketchCow We got CHD working, by the way
23:38 🔗 SketchCow then producing... I can't even begin to describe the nightmares it's causing
23:38 🔗 SketchCow 2gb arcade machines that run at 1 frame a second
23:38 🔗 db48x :D
23:38 🔗 SketchCow violations of the geneval convention
23:38 🔗 SketchCow the opinion of ruffle is we need a mime type added to IA
23:38 🔗 db48x ugh
23:39 🔗 db48x nothing I can do to help with that, of course
23:41 🔗 SketchCow https://archive.org/details/arcade_takoron&external_js=1
23:41 🔗 SketchCow If you want to watch us spit in the eye of god
23:51 🔗 db48x ok, I took a look at the version in loaderlab
23:51 🔗 db48x the CHD file support should only be active on emulator types that actually supoort CHD files
23:52 🔗 db48x currently it is active for all emulator types
23:52 🔗 db48x - } else if (module) { // MAME
23:52 🔗 db48x + } else if (module && module.indexOf("ruffle-") !== 0) { // MAME
23:52 🔗 db48x is an unnecessary change
23:55 🔗 db48x + break; // only allow one .swf file to be loaded
23:55 🔗 db48x the code would be much better if it only operated on the first file of the list, rather than looping over them all but breaking after the first one
23:55 🔗 db48x SketchCow: do you have a Ruffle item I can check out?
