With complete control of our own home and infrastructure for the first time, we noticed the accessibility to users that it gave us. Not only did we get a new home, but we also got a platform , one that allowed us to communicate directly to our users! We used it to great effect, explaining big changes to the emulator such as tev_fixes_new , getting ahead of controversy when we removed the popular D3D9 graphics backend , calling out broken drivers , and more! The Dolphin Blog was born! However, we quickly realized that while single dedicated articles were great for big changes, Dolphin was improving all the time and tons of important and/or interesting changes were being overlooked simply because they weren’t "big enough" to warrant a feature article. We needed something that would let us cover the continuing development of the emulator. Something like, a periodical article filled with a collection of notable changes , so we could report on the progress of Dolphin within a set window of time. And after much experimentation, we built a format to fulfill this role, and released the first of its kind to the world on the 30th of April, 2014. Ten years ago today, the first Dolphin Progress Report was launched ! Since then, our blog has exploded in popularity, and tens of thousands of people read every Report! And in that time, we’ve made 79 Dolphin Progress Reports, with 797 Notable Changes, 54 special sections, and 301,807 words! Thanks for reading! As the writers of the Dolphin blog, we are proud of what we have accomplished here. We’ve highlighted tons of cool changes, educated our users (and ourselves!) on how Dolphin works, we’ve helped reel in fresh talent for the emulator, we’ve helped people get into universities and launch their careers, and even helped a few people meet their life partners! Progress Reports have been so impactful, that they have reached far beyond Dolphin. The once novel concept of emulator Progress Reports has become a standard means of user communication throughout emulation! But of course, ten years is a long time, and we’ve changed along the way and will continue to change over time. The Reports may grow or shrink, become more or less frequent, structure and style may change, and writers may come and go. And truth be told, this is hard , and we nearly reached the breaking point a few times along the way. But no matter what happens, as the writers of the Dolphin Blog, it is our goal and our hope that for as long there are Notable Changes being made to Dolphin, there will be Progress Reports to feature them! Speaking of which, anniversary or not, this is a Progress Report. We have Notable Changes to cover! So without further ado, please enjoy the Tenth Anniversary Dolphin Progress Report, and the last Dolphin Progress Report of the 5.0 era. Read this article Dolphin Progress Report: November and December 2023, January 2024 Written by MayImilae , JMC47 , JosJuice on Feb. 10, 2024 / Part of series Dolphin Progress Report With the conclusion of the holiday season, it’s time for us at the blog to get back to work. And this time around, we have a smattering of changes covering just about everything you could imagine. For those looking to enjoy some of the latest homebrew with DSP-HLE, Dolphin now has support for the latest homebrew microcodes! For retail games, we also have a minor update to the Zelda-HLE microcode to fix a missing effect that’s long overdue. In some more important news, for those of you having disk space issues when running Dolphin on Windows since the last beta, a fix is now available. And for those looking for the clearest picture possible, Dolphin’s mipmap heuristic has been backed down to allow for higher resolution mipmaps across more textures. And of course, if you’re wanting that perfect image, Custom Aspect Ratios will allow for easier use of ultra-widescreen hacks and more! Add to all of that a huge bugfix for older revision Steam Decks, another chapter in the Bounding Box saga, seeing a classic in an all new way, and yet another chapter in broken GPU drivers, and you’ve got yourself a Dolphin Progress Report. Enjoy. Read this article Dolphin Progress Report: August, September, and October 2023 Written by MayImilae , JMC47 , JosJuice on Nov. 25, 2023 / Part of series Dolphin Progress Report / Forum thread This past October, Dolphin turned 20 years old since its initial release to the public as an experimental GameCube emulator. It’s been a long ride, with twists and turns. I don’t know if anyone back in 2003 expected Dolphin not only to still be under active development 20 years later , but to also support the GameCube’s successor in the Wii. You might be wondering, where is all the pageantry? The honest truth is that things aren’t ready yet. We have a few massive changes on the horizon that we wanted to be ready for the 20th anniversary, but that date was not an excuse to release something in a broken and incomplete state. For now, development will continue as normal, but we promise that there is some excitement to be had on the horizon. In the meantime, we have some great changes for you this in Dolphin Progress Report! Read this article © Dolphin Emulator Project - Website Source Code - Privacy Policy...
