Makaron Naomi T12/3 is released.
Makaron is a
Dreamcast(DC) emulator for Windows.
Makaron is a Dreamcast emulator that does run some commercial games, with full sound and decent speed. However
Makaron is still in the testing stages, thus Makaron may be buggy, and not run the Dreamcast game you are interested in. Otherwise, you can download
Makaron and give it a try.
Haven't posted any screenshots lately so here goes - SEGA Strike Figher and Virtual On:
Back to the business at hand - apparently this blog started to attract the wrong type of crowd. Teen angst and/or stupidity I can deal with but I'm not sure if I should keep tolerating comments that are clearly meant to be abusive (to me or to other people). For now I'll just change my policy on deleting comments. If that doesn't help, there are other methods I have at my disposal. Pity, but I guess in any large enough group of people there's bound to be an idiot or two.
Oh, and I can't seem to get this point across: No, you can't have analog controls mapped to keyboard. Period. That said, inputs will not work in some games on T12 series, and this includes Power Stone, Zombie Revenge and Crazy Taxi, to name a few. Yes, I could hack around it but I see little point in doing so. These problems should hopefully be gone in next major release. Also, keep in mind these are arcade games and often work with dedicated controls that are not easily emulated.
BTW, I fixed some problems and added more games again so I just might release another version soon. Watch this space.
UPDATE: I just found this serial port log sitting on my hard drive. Try to guess which game it came from (don't let the text fool you, it's from NAOMI):
Nindows2 for DREAMCAST version 2.12 (C) SEGA ENTERPRISES SYSTEM R&D Library Team Startup SCIF 115200 BPS Buffer[1024Byte]
HEAP INITIALIZE Address = $8dc16140 Size = $00027c00
UPDATE 2: As promised, here's an update. I bumped the version number to T12/3 to avoid confusion. Runs few more games, has detection code for plain images (though those will not work if the protection cannot be emulated). Get it while it's still there :) Oh, and you can't exactly play Crazy Taxi right now but there's always the Dreamcast version. Many people don't realize you can get much better shadows in that game with Z-fail #2 method (set in F11 menu). |
