From the creators of Gens and Neo4All comes... Gens4All!!
We are happy to announce the second release of the excellent Gens emulator to the Dreamcast. Since preview 1 (March 2008), Fox and Chui have work very hard to improve it. In this new version, game compatibility has increased a lot, but there is a lot of work to be done. Please remember that this version is still alpha and things are far from perfection
At the moment, this alpha version features the following:
- Two SH4 assembly engines especially design for the DC.
* FAME: Very fast M68000 emulation core written 100% in SH-4 assembly code.
* FAZE: Z80 emulation core written 100% in SH-4 assembly code.
- Accurate Genesis VDP emulation:
* DMA transfers with accurates timings
* Window plane
* Sprite plane
* Vertical Interrupt
* Horizontal Interrupt
* All rasters effects
* Highlight/Shadow effects
* Interlaced mode
- Raw binary (.bin) and interleaved (.smd) ROM format support.
- GZip, Zip and 7-Zip compressed file format support.
- FM YM2612 emulation core by Stef.
- PSG Maxim's emulation.
- SDL Dreamcast implementation by Chui.
- On-screen menu full of options (frameskip, region selector, cartridge info...)
- Support for 3 and 6 pad buttons.
- Multilanguage interface (i18n). This version contains English and Spanish.
- Support for Game Genie and Action Replay codes is avaiable
- VMU support to save games (SRAM).
- VGABox support using 50/60HZ Selector.
- Arcade Stick support.
As a tip, some games need to activate Sound in order to work (i.e. Landstalker).
A big thanks to Indiket and Neoblast to help us testing lots of games, and discover new bugs and errors. And, of course, thanks to Fox, Chui and Stef to make this a reality.
