    wonder if they will make a x64 version anytime soon

    some games run great many have sound glitches but I am enjoying the progress. I wish this project the best of luck.

      Compared to 0.57, is not worth it for me and for my computer, if they made for x64 i will test and check it.
      Can be better.
      I can´t play Hikaru Games, because the CPU will increase to 75%, i don´t know what the problem is. I just know is, when we play onces is quick, when we play for the secound time goes slow.
      Please turn off the option Time Hack on Dreamcast Region/Broadcast, it will give you more speed. (If i tell you is a mistake.)

      Like Unknown said here "do not work for me".

      Unknown - The Dreamcast/Naomi/Atomiswave - Works with DX10 and DX11
      Hikaru/Galeco - Only DX11.

      Jonathan - About roms, if you have mame full-set you can get a big part of the roms, wait for retroroms fórum for the release of the lastest roms are missing. (Including Smashing Drive) minimum 1 or 3 days max, to released them. It can be released right now, i will go check this out. =)

      "ninja assualt mouse lightgun controls buggered i can only reload :("
      you must calibrate lighgun in service menu, just like on real arcade
      btw many other arcades require lightgun or analogue controls calibration

      I find where are the problem - i can't use more of 2x internal resolution with DX11 and at 6x on DX10 didn't crash but it's very slow.

    Info Forum Emu-Russia. Translated by google.

    Introducing the new version of Demul 0.58. Of significant added support for two new arcade system, almost completely rewritten GPU driver support full DX11 (DX11 old moved to the plugin code DX10 and is designed for systems that do not support DX11 hardware, DXv3 and Legacy are no longer supported and are not included in the release) and more many various improvements and bug fixes.

    For better tracking and hot fix open bug tracker: http://code.google.com/p/demul/issues/list. All interested persons are invited to actively test.

    Fresh romsety for arcade machines can be downloaded here: http://torrents.emu-russia.net/details.php?id=469. Older images are suitable for the Dreamcast unchanged.

    PS advance warning that the version is still a WIP, and it can still be a lot of mistakes, and to run the emulator requires quite a powerful machine with hardware support for at least DX10, otherwise you will still be able to run the emulator, but the emulation speed will unacceptable for a full game.

    Before the work must be removed prior INI files and clear the folder SCACHE. And to be sure to avoid any problems, you should also remove the old FLASH files for DREAMCAST and perhaps clear a folder NVRAM.

    Note:

    It's problem from Naomi 2 and Hikaru, don´t use it.
    They need shaders to run powefull computers, maybe one day they can run better =)

    The rest they just run fine.

    DX9? I don´t know =(

    Which is the best, NullDC SVN r150 or this new version of DEmul?

    ReplyDelete
  11. pigknobJuly 14, 2013 at 11:08 PM

    For dreamcast use NullDC, for Atomiswave and others use Demul

    In Dead or Alive 2 is still slow, but some bugs have been fixed, and I hope that at least the team Demul not abandon the dreancast how the team did nullDC. I think this emulator should be done in directx9 why it is much faster than DirectX10 and 11.

    Streched aspect ratio issue in fullscreen mode was recently fixed on Google code.

    Could anyone publish a new build including the fix ? I'm trying to compile from source right now but I'm not sure I'll succeed...
