What frameskip does gigadrive run at?? Sonic1 with sound seems to play really fast for me? Any plans on implementing an frameskip option?
 
its auto frameskip i believe. And I think dave told me sonic runs fast because its not rendering the backgrounds fast enough? that right dave? feel free to correct me.

What do mean exactly by 'runs fast'?

It runs at the same speed as a US Genesis, e.g. 30 seconds on a Genesis = 30 seconds on the GP32, however it drops frames (frameskip) to keep up.

The UK Megadrive was 17.5% slower than a US Genesis though, because of the different TV stanards. As a result when I play Sonic in emulators it originally seemed 'too fast', however I've got used to it now and the UK Megadrive seems slow.
