N64 emulator for PSP”>Daedalus ain’t dead yet! I’m sure a lot of you guys (myself included, actually) have been wondering what’s been cooking for the PSP’s all-time fave Nintendo 64 emulator, so here’s some good news for you. A couple of Daedalus fans got together to help get the N64 emulator project going – they want to help the community by picking up where StrmnNrmn left off. And so starts the DaedalusX64 project.

See we haven’t heard from StrmnNrmn for close to a year now. His blog has been pretty quiet of late, and his latest release for his Nintendo 64 emulator on the PSP was (the sort-of-unofficial-but-not-really) Daedalus R14. So now, a couple of Daedalus fans got together to help get the N64 emulator project going.
The team is being led by Shinydude100, and he aims to help out the community by continuing where StrmnNrmn left off. Thus starts the DaedalusX64 project. Shinydude100 managed to get a hold of the Daedalus source code and, with two other devs in tow, has already made known his plans.
“This should be supported for the PSP, and if all goes well, we should see increased performance, and even better texture rendered on the floors of games like Legend Of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, and Diddy Kong Racing with actual polygons appearing. By change, i do not mean i’m suggesting, i mean i’ll change the graphics plugin to an 07 graphics based Plugin which should support our PSPs. GRAPHICAL IMPROVEMENT is a BIG thing when it comes to the emulated FPS we get on Deadalus.”

No specific date yet for when Shinydude100 plans to release the initial version of DaedalusX64, however, the strmnnrmn forums indicate the end of October as a potential date for its release.
Our hats off to chuck for the tip!
