No,

because the set of KOF97 is too large to fit the ram of the dreamcast .

The dreamcast have only 16 MB of ram, and the game also need to be uncompressed in the ram, so it's impossible to fit 56 MB for the game plus the emulator .

For summarize 58>16 :mrgreen:

Just for information - I had half worked out and had it confirmed by Reaper that underclocking the CPUs on Mame gives a speed boost (even with Sound!!!) So I'm working on MDCNG v2.8.

This will include CFG file use aswell - so you can configure the options for each individual game etc etc...

Also (and this will be common for all MDC..... releases) you can run a single game automatically - it was requested somewhere - using a config option 'JUST_RUN=romset' - works really nicely!

But it'll take a while.

it's strange : undercloking the SH4 boost the performances of MAME, why ? is the emulation more accurate since the CPU made less error or something like that ?

just wondering

Anyway very goodnews Warmtoe :)

He means underclocking the emulated CPUs, not the Dreamcast's CPU.

MDCNG v2.82 now available...

http://homebrew.dcemulation.com/warmtoe/MDCNGv2.82.zip

New in this release, config files (so you can make a single game version if you want and override the default config for a game) - also uses underclocking of emulated CPUs but this is not optimized - if you burn it have a play with the CPUx Speed values and see what settings (for CPUs 0 and 1) give you the best performance.

I'm looking hard at the work Reaper's doing and thinking whether I can add anything to what he's doing - keep up the good work Reaper.
