The news of Mame WIP Naomi
The developer said:
With all the recent GD-ROMs appearing I decided to take a look at Naomi.
It’s a complete system, and probably ranks as more powerful than anything currently emulated in MAME, so I’m not really expecting much.
The existing driver in MAME is mostly developed by Samuele Zannoli.
While most of the progress on it has gone very much under the radar for various reasons (probably overshadowed by the more advanced work in other emulators, and not really valued due to the knowledge that the framerates won’t be very good) it does actually do a few good things.
I recently fixed a few bugs, and now Capcom vs SNK actually gets past the character select screens, and ingame. It runs at about 20% speed on my 3Ghz C2D, and that’s without any real 3d emulation, but it’s pretty cool to see all the same (and you can actually ‘play’ if you don’t mind most of the graphics being blocks of nothing). Both this and Guilty Gear look like they could be potential ‘first base’ emulation targets for MAME’s Naomi emulation. I’ll see if I can get them there.
