Impela abadala bendawo bayayikhumbula njenganamuhla. Emuva ngenyanga kaJuni 1998 IMicrosoft yethule enye yezinhlelo zokusebenza ezihamba phambili emlandweni wayo emakethe owayephethe ukuguqula imidlalo ibe enye yezinto ezinhle kakhulu, ngemuva kwezinsuku ezimbalwa zokuqala ze-Windows 95 lapho ayephethe khona ukuthatha i-pulse yayo ngentuthuko yokuqala eyashiya ngemuva i-MS-DOS nohlelo lwayo lomyalo oludala.
Uhlelo lokusebenza oluhle kakhulu!
Kufanele ukhumbule lokho Kwakunge-Windows 98 lapho imidlalo ye-PC yaqala ukuthatha indlela ethuthuke kakhulu., owabheka ubuso nobuso kuma-consoles, ngenxa ye-DirectX, i-Direct3D kanye nokufika kwamakhadi ehluzo zokuqala ze-accelerator (njengoba ayebizwa kanjalo) njengeVoodoo 3dfx. Ngokuphazima kweso, imidlalo yaqala ukubonisa ikhwalithi emangalisayo enezindawo ezinemodeli ye-3D ekwazi ukuhamba esikrinini ngobushelelezi obumangalisayo. I-PC yayingena enkathini entsha.
Futhi-ke, kujwayelekile ukuthi abadlali abaningi bazihlanganise naleyo minyaka uhlu olungapheli lwemidlalo efuna ukuvuselela nganoma iyiphi indlela, ephendukela kuyo kanye ingqikithi yezingxenye zangaleso sikhathi. Kodwa singakufeza kanjani ngokushesha ngaphandle kokwenza ukuphila kwethu kube nzima? Futhi, ngaphezu kwakho konke, kuyadingeka yini ukuya emakethe yezandla ezisetshenzisiwe ukuze uthenge iphrosesa yePentium kusukela ngalezo zikhathi, noma ikhadi lomsindo le-SoundBlaster noma ikhadi lehluzo le-Voodoo 2? Hhayi-ke, kunendlela elula: thenga i-Xbox Series X (noma i-S) kusuka kuMicrosoft uqobo. Lokhu okusheshayo.
Njengoba wazi, ama-Xbox Series amabili amasha asetshenziswa abasebenzisi abaningi njenge izinkundla zokulingisa ezisezingeni eliphezulu nganoma yiluphi uhlobo lwekhonsoli nekhompyutha yomuntu siqu, sibonga insiza enikeza umdlalo omningi: RetroArch. Uyamazi?
Inhliziyo yokulingisa
Yilokho kanye okwenziwa ozakwabo be-DigitalFoundry, bafaka i-RetroArch futhi ukusuka lapho, sebenzisa i-Windows 98 yonke njengesango kukho konke ukukhishwa kwegeyimu esiphile kukho eminyakeni eyisishiyagalombili elandelayo lapho i-OS yahlala isebenza khona. Futhi abambalwa, ngoba kuphela kuvidiyo onayo ngenhla uzokwazi ukujabulela izimanga ezinjengalezi Ukuzamazama, okubukeka kube ngesinye sezizathu ezimqoka esenze labo abathintekayo ukuthi baphothule le nselelo.
Kepha kukhona okwengeziwe, ngaphakathi kwezithombe zale vidiyo, singabona futhi izindawo ezinhle ezinezinhlangothi ezintathu zemisebenzi yobuciko efana Virtua Fighter, I-SEGA Rally, Okungelona iqiniso, Homeworld, Ukuphila okungaphelele, I-Wipeout 2097, ITurok, Njll Konke kulingiswa ngokulungiswa kwamaphikseli angu-640×480 kanye nalelo phunga elidala lemifanekiso esheshisiwe enekhadi le-3dfx, kulabo abangakaze bezwe ngalo, lalilingana ne-Geforce noma i-Radeon esinayo emakethe namuhla. Ngisho noNvidia uqobo waqala kulo mkhakha ngokwethula amamodeli ahambisana naleyo chip efanayo.
Njengoba ubona, kuvuleka umnyango omkhulu wokuqhubekisela phambili izinkumbulo zakudala sibonga ama-consoles amanje asebenza nezinhlelo zokusebenza ezindala. Futhi lapha, sibonga i-RetroArch ne-DOSBox, uzokwazi ukuya esikhathini esedlule semidlalo yevidiyo lapho iWindows 98 ibusa ngesibhakela sensimbi kuwo wonke ama-PC emhlabeni. Yiziphi izikhathi ezifanele?
