It seems he's just playing games and isn't actually interested in doing the port. He's trying to play all of us for fools. Hence why he raised it to $250. Then when it hits $250 he'll raise it to $500. And maybe then he'll work on it lol. Nah f**k that someone else who knows what the hell they're doing will gladly do it for $150
I understand though, he lives in a sorry ass excuse of a country, I would be mad if I lived in a poor ass country also.

Ya know what I wonder if someone were to open up an "issue" on the dolphin Github page regarding a UWP port and posting a link for the bounty if someone from the official Dolphin Team would consider working on a port. Honestly for the right amount of money you can get people to do almost anything

I've actually got just the person in mind who could do this port and I know they would do a wonderful job. They have past experience with porting emulators to UWP and this person was the original author of Dolphin

I thought the bounty was already from the Dolphin Github?
I think it should have been on there from the start. :P You should re-make the Bounty on their official Dolphin Issue page, that way alot more people will see it and you may even get a endorsement from the Dolphin guys themselves?

I am embarrassed with that thread because the shit I said was just straight up stupid.

Yeah that'd be great and all but for some reason they have it set up to where you can't open an issue on the Dolphin Github page. I dunno why

Whos handling the fuckin bounty??!?! Seems like an asshole??

I'm reading up on docs for dolphin rn. @wiired24 if we could get that guy in our chat that'd be great, I'm getting a friend who wrote a section of UWPStreamer to look into stuff with me.

Just got an official response back from Hygard

Unfortantely He declined
"I had enough of UWP during my port of PPSSPP :) It's quite painful to work with. No thanks. Hope you find someone who wants to do it." - Hygard

So Anyone else have any ideas?

Without an exploit there is no other way to load an application (that I'm aware of) other than UWP. It will need to be ported to UWP to run on XB1

The guy who jacked the price up on the bounty out of greed when we had already met the funraising goal

one thing that interested me, was that supposedly there used to be a way to play retroarch on xbox one using retroarch browser until it got patched. Mind you I do not know how efficient that would be for dolphin emulator? other than that if we can find a way to load Linux on xbox one as well.

Playing Dolphin on a web browser would be very slow.
