ok the obsididian genesis emulator is just a patch of echelons original hacked smash pack loader it changed the menus to have biger font and changed some stuff with the file saving...
I wouldn't say a bad hack, since the music and fx are WAY better than on
the smashpack, but still as you say....someone should port Gens to DC...please
1. the music and fx are exactly the same nothing different the entire thing is just a hack of the origional(sega instead of porting the games for the smash pack just created an emulator and didnt do a very good job with the sound) still the bad sound i dont know what ur thinking because they didnt change any coding with the actual emulator... but hey ur still playing genesis games at full speed on ur dc...
2. ill quote Xylene from dc emu about Gens "Its all x86 ASM, which is not portable to dreamcast."
I use it.....and from what i've herad...it's just a bad hack of the sega smash pack on the DC.......some games work better then others, sonic 2 has NO sound! (so don't even go there!!!)
i am 99% sure that sonic 2 has sound it could be that u have a bad rom id go test right now but its kinda late and im going to sleep...
