Yeh cant wait for that megadrive/genesis emulator, hopefully Id be able to play Fifa Soccer on there at reasonable speed, that would be cool!

Just a question, does anyone know if it will support save states cos thats what all the emulators are crying out for at the mo?

..a gp32 pimp.. thats for sure. B)

Looking forward to playing some good games too!

Nice one Ryleh!

If this works, I'll run to buy myself an GP32 before you can say "Did you hear, I can now play Streets of Rage 2 and bunch of other great Megadrive/Genesis games on a handheld".

I think I'm in love with you, rlyeh.

 

[Rico]

Word to ryleh, you are the man. What a speedy port that was

Also word to the guy who mentioned Genesis Plus on these forums, he might have kicked this off

Ryleh, how much work have you done on Masterlator? I mean, if it works on the hardware it might be a good idea to use that, unless there's a huge speed/compatibility increase to be had with Genesis Plus.

Masterlator? I guess you meant Generator...

Generator is quite strange, but i'll try to continue its development, or mix both emus together... like I'm doing with fNES32

Dunno what to do atm :lol:

..sorry, must have confused it with that other emulator, which is called Masterlator I think.

By mixing them I guess you'll take the fastest routines from each one? I didn't know you did that for fNES32, cool

 

[Tobriand]

Masterlator is CHN's SMS/GG emu

So far, speed is abysmally poor, but possibly one day it'll rival SMS32 (and have save states ? )

fGEN32 is running finally in real hardware.
The source code was updated from the latest Charles McDonald's sources.
It was an unalignment problem (classic problem).

Speed is right now about 30%, with frameskip 1, no sound, and 133 mhz, which is quite cool considering it was ported as-is, with no optimizations.

Expect some improvements at speed in a couple of days.

Here is another shot btw

Thanks for the update Rlyeh

Please keep us informed on your progress.

I have no doubt that the fps can be upped quite a lot once optimised, straight ports are always slow as you said Maybe some ASM conversion?

In theory it should be faster than present SNES emulators...

[Rainman]
