It looks like EmuPlus has been updated with some news, here is the post
Just to let everyone know I am working on Emu+ still. Probably no releases till Beta11, but my plan is to release it as soon as B11 gets released.
Some things I'm working on...
- Adding Andy's OptiMame code to Emu+ for the folks who use arcade cabinets.
I am also adding some other things...
- The ability to map the addition buttons in CHEAT mode... (a+b, c+d, b+c+d, a+b+c+d) (NEOGEO mainly)
- Plus the ability to save your overclock settings per game...
- I am also researching the ability to add rumble support to certain games for folks with psx pads with the rumble feature.

12/01/1999 - 3DOpen has been updated! [Posted by DarkMazda]
It looks like 3DOpen site has been updated! here is whats posted
I haven't updated the site in a while, as I've been busy with several things. In fact, I don't expect to make huge amounts of progress until after the end of the year. Why? A couple of reasons. First, I have two small children, and it's the Holiday season, and I want to spend time with them (and my wife). Second, I have two small children, and it's the Holiday season, and I'm going to be real busy with Holiday related things.
So what have I been doing? Well, so many people have written in asking to be have their particular platform supported, that I sat down re-wrote the CPU emulator in C. I wasn't going to do it, but since I'm not getting very far on the hardware emulation side, I decided to have a go.
This means that, ultimately, I will try to support any platform I can cross-compile to, and that someone wants to test. Oh, and I went out and bought a nice new iMac DV, so you can add the PPC platform to that list.
I mentioned I'm not getting very far. With some help, I've made some contacts with people that very well may be able to provide hardware technical information. As soon as it comes in, I'm back on it. For know, I'm in a temporary holding pattern, enjoying all things non-computer.
Happy Holidays!

12/02/1999 - EmuDX updates! [Posted by DarkMazda]
It looks like EmuDX site has been updated with some news. Here is the post
EmuDX is progressing, albeit slowly and painfully, especially with my total lack of internet access at the right times.
Here's the games we *should* see supported in the next release: PacMan, Ms. PacMan, Galaxian, Pengo, and Phoenix.
There should also be an assortment of sound card options (for people with sblive in particular)
There's also other stuff that is still in progress. I'm looking into what other games can be included easily now that the program structure has changed totally,
giving us the ability to plug new games in, or at least better than before.
If things go well, such as the pengo/phoenix graphics, then I want to get the first big EmuDX release in, along with the screensaver and theme for Windows before Christmas, but all that really relies on the availability of the improved graphics & sound in time. If this is not the case, it won't be available until after the new year.
Please visit EmuDX for more info
12/02/1999 - EmuBits.. [Posted by DarkMazda]
EmuBits for today
FiRES and Icepir8, the authors of TRWinGL, gave us the current beta version of their Nintendo64 emulator so we could do a preview of it. TRWinGL was originally based on the True Reality version for UNIX authored by Niki Waibel. So on to the facts....The last version of TRWinGL had bugs and errors that where so essential that they had to totally rewrite the entire core. They have now come a long way and graphics along with compatiblity is improving very well. Another thing to metion is a new and handy GUI. Check out a shot of the new GUI here. As you can see on all of the screenshots, TRWinGL has advanced pretty much since the last release. The beta version that i have tested is much more compatible with commercial games than the last official version released. It is also a bit faster.
Please read the preview at Emulation64 Thanks goes to Emulation64 for the news.
I recently purchased a Super Nova system from MAS. After examing how Nova works, I learned alot on the JAMMA standard. I used Super Nova to play MVS system, but I wasn't happy due to its size. After seeing how small the mini MVS board is, I decided to make a self contained MVS system, so I am able to carry inexpensive MVS games to my friends' houses.
Please visit the NeoGeo LT Project website.
Trust me, this emu is gonna be one of the best N64 emulator when it will be released to the public. The emulation is already pretty complete and the emu has sound (yes in commercial games too), a great compatibility (it runs at the moment about the same games that Nemu64 can run plus a few more) and a good speed on the most games. Some games are still a bit buggy and slow (Zelda64 is one of them) and that's why the authors are currently rewriting the main core of the emulator to get a BIG speed improvements (one of the authors told me that, according to the first tests, the new core could be as fast as the one in Corn, that super-fast N64 emulator).
There is no release date as of yet because the authors are VERY busy with other things at the moment and then the new core needs time to be finished. However I can assure you that this emulator is TRUE and is not a fake or anything (all I can say is that the authors are known in the "emulation scene" for other popular emulators other than this one). Below I posted some screenshots of the emulator running Zelda64 (I had to edit the screenshots to remove the name of the emulator, sorry the authors asked me to do so).
Looks good! Go visit EmuForce to check out some screenshots of the emulator in action!
Please visit EmuForce for more info.

12/03/1999 - Pretendo Updates! [Posted by DarkMazda]
It looks like Pretendo has updated also, here is the post
02 december 1999.
Coolness, another update! Well, hopefully everbody's bookmarks are up to date and stuff like that. First and foremost, I'd like to ask of anyone if they remember the old counter value. It seems that sometime today, it has been reset, probably due to a file being deleted by accident. If you have the counter value, please email it to me here. I will likely write a new counter within a couple of days, and I'll find a way to make sure it doesn't get f-ed up.
On a brighter note, we've finally got the CPU working properly, for the moment. We're now looking for ways to speed everything up, and we've been somewhat successful thus far, as the DX blitter is now in Assembly, allowing for a pretty decent speed increase. We have plans of re-doing the renderers in Assembly also, but that's probably not going to appear in the WIP version. We've finalized an input plugin format, so we'll try and whip up some documentations and make them available for download. Hopefully the WIP version will be ready in a 2 to 3 weeks time :). That's all for today.

Well, a lot has been going on in the past three weeks at CG. Three great Hacks of the Week (Peach's Nightmare, Final Fantasy Epica, and Luigi and the New Quest) have been selected from the scores of hacks that have been submitted, rated, and posted on the Hacker's Forum.
And from these three... the much more prestigious Hack of the Month was selected! You'll have to go to the Hacker's Forum to see which one it was, but let me tell you, it was a very nicely done one!
Also, Metroid Challenge version .35 has come out, bringing many new levels and improved gfx to that classic game, and Challenge Boards, which are like online scoreboards for the hacks at Challenge games, have gone up for many of the hacks, including MetroidC and some of the more popular hacks on the Hacker's Forum.
But wait, there is more... Super Mario Bros. Challenge will have a big update in a few days, completing more of that very popular hack.

12/09/1999 - CapCom roms being shipped for HotRod users [Posted by DarkMazda]
I saw on EmuViews that the HanaHo HotRod Joystick is shipping Capcom roms to people that bought the joystick. Here is the post from EmuViews.
If you're the proud owner of a HanaHo Hot Rod, your Capcom ROMs CD should be on the way to you as you read this. It has come out of the oven, and it's currently being shipped to all owners and buyers. There's one mistake however, instead of including the game "U.N. Squadron", "Carrier Air Wing" is included. This was an error on documentation and cover art, but the CD itself will list 'Air Wing' and that's the game the User Interface will let you know. Also as a reminder, HanaHo is going on the 16th for Christmas Vacations, so if you want Santa to carry one of those gorgeous sticks or cabinets and put it under your tree, you better place your order soon.
If you bought a HotRod joystick, you should be getting your CD Soon :) Thanks goes to JoseQ from EmuViews for the news :)

12/12/1999 - EmuDX updates! [Posted by DarkMazda]
It looks like EmuDX has been updated! Here is the post
We've got more screenshots on-line for you, this time it's one of my personal all-time favourite games "Frogger". The game is now completely playable and is only awaiting the music for it to be "complete", or as complete as it will be for EmuDX 1.0!
Here's something for you to consider. The Frogger graphics took less that 5 hours to fit all into place, with all the scrolling, transparencies, etc. Several games on the Status page are in a similar position, whereby once the newly rendered graphics are ready to fit in, there will be a very tiny gap between then and your first glipse of those new graphics.
Still no release date planned, although a private alpha release was made yesterday, which will effect the date upon which EmuDX is released to the public.

Heh, just a small but very important update! I have redesigned the plugin system and it is now much more flexible and easy to handle. This will however require a new build of Pagan which is available on the page. The updated SDK is also on the page, if you've started making a plugin for Pagan, you should get the new SDK and new build.. 'Cos the old plugins won't be working in the future.
That's it!

It looks like Challange Games has been updated with some news, here is the post
Well, a lot has been going on in the past three weeks at CG. Three great Hacks of the Week (Peach's Nightmare, Final Fantasy Epica, and Luigi and the New Quest) have been selected from the scores of hacks that have been submitted, rated, and posted on the Hacker's Forum.
And from these three... the much more prestigious Hack of the Month was selected! Final Fantasy Epica snagged that award this month! Hacks of the week are done on every week where there are enough hacks submitted to have a decent contest, and there is always now going to be a hack of the month.
Also, Metroid Challenge version .35 has come out, bringing many new levels and improved gfx to that classic game, and Challenge Boards, which are like online scoreboards for the hacks at Challenge games, have gone up for many of the hacks, including MetroidC and even some of the more popular hacks on the Hacker's Forum!
Finally, Super Mario Bros. 1 and 3 Challenges will each have big updates in the coming weeks, most likely soon after exams are completed for everyone at CG.
Please visit Challange Games which is hosted on DMD! :) Thanks goes to x-4000 for the email :)

12/14/1999 - Pretendo Updates! [Posted by DarkMazda]
Pretendo site has been updated with news! Here is the post
Okay. First on the list is our graphics engine. PrOxY has re-coded most of our scanline renderer in Assembly, so we've gotten quite a nice speedup. We're not where we want to be in terms of speed yet, but we're getting closer. Once we get a tilecache in there, we'll probably be in business. Next on the list, we have implemented preliminary Save/Load states. By preliminary, I mean preliminary, so we've got a bit more work to do in order to finish it up. We've finished up and documented our input plugin format. Follow a link below if you're interested. So, maybe you're a big fan, or you just like to read long news updates, and you're wondering "When the hell are they going to release something already?" Well, it has come to my attention, that this Saturday, will mark exactly 6 months since the last release! Quite a long time. What's holding us back, you ask? Well, our primary drawback as of now is that we're waiting for Neil Bradley (good friend of ours, and very nice guy) to fix up a couple of things in his 6502 core, so that it will deliver the best possible performance. No ETA on that one, but I'll keep everyone posted should I recieve any news. The next drawback is our graphics core. We want Pretendo to be as fast as possible, so we really need to take our time and squeeze every bit of speed out of it that we can. This should require a nice amount of Assembly, and probably a tilecache. To be honest, I have no idea when we will finish up the graphics core, but the sooner the better. Now that I've killed the vibes, here's something to cheer everyone up. We have decided, that in honour of this lovely 6 month drought, we will release the WIP version _this_ Saturday, no matter how bad it is! We're mainly doing this in order for everyone to get some idea of what we've been doing, as well as to allow anyone who wants to write a plugin to be able to actually test it. Keep note that you'll probably need a fast CPU......
Pretty big :) please get the documents at Pretendo
