Xenia(Xbox 360 emulator)

[schvabodka-man]

Project description Xbox 360 emulator. Already working and can run tons of games. There is already an rpcs3 in repos(PS3 emu) so it would be kinda nice pair :)

Here's my current progress, building fails with error: implicit instantiation of undefined template 'std::__1::ctype<char16_t>' unfortunately (full log).

There is another distro running Xenia?

[schvabodka-man]

Hello @AndersonTorres @samuelgrf . Xenia is actually packages in arch AUR (which is also built from source) as latest git version. There are 2 versions of that package in repos: The "regular one" - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xenia-git/ And the one with some patches - https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xenia-linux-fixes-git/ You can see a build script of them by clicking "View PKGBUILD" button

[AndersonTorres]

Fun to know. Can it be built and run on an AMD Ryzen 5?

[schvabodka-man]

@AndersonTorres on windows - definitely. On Linux - probably yes(why not?)

This expression builds Xenia from master, but the canary build still fails:

I'm having some issues getting anything to actually run though. Hopefully this is enough for someone sufficiently motivated to take over the effort.
