Genesis Plus/DC Emulation Discussion

Well, the other day I burnt your Emulator with some roms, and I'd have to say it was the worst emulator I'v ever played. I'd turn the sound on, expecting to here mabey a bleep or bloop here, but nothing. The emulator constantly kicked me off and it ran as slow as hell. Then I realized that your emulator was called Genesis Plus and not DCGenerator. *shot*
So today I burnt your Preview 3 emulator, and I must say I'm impressed. The menus are kinda bland, but it's not done yet. See, I have this problem. I can't play a game unless it has sound. Your sound was excellent, although far from perfect. I find it funny that in Sonic 3D Blast and Sonic "Get Blue Spheres", they suffer from the same ring sound problem as Sonic Adventure (you only hear every other ring). Vectorman played surprisingly well, especially with my rapid-fire controller (yes, I know I'm going to hell). Splatterhouse 2 & 3 worked well to, although in 3 the graphics were sorta glitchy. Another thing was that my Sonic Crackers rom would show the SEGA letters flying in, and just keep looking them. Alltogether a good emulator, but I need to know one thing: How do I save to the memory card? I want to save the sram in Sonic 3, but when I exit the game, it's gone. Anywho, keep up the good work.

Yeah, I have no idea what causes that. It seems that the game just crashes and resets itself after the Sega logo. That particular bug is really, really far down the list, so I wouldn't expect it to be fixed anytime soon, if ever.

How do I save to the memory card?

You don't. SRAM saves are not present in that version. This one is up near the top of the list, so it'll be fixed before the next version. Whenever that is.

Didnt you have SRAM working partially in your builds for quite some time now?

Yep. However, it only works when using Musashi or C68K CPU emulators. It's totally broken in FAME at the moment.
