Anyway, its almost 2:00 AM now, its time for sleep.....

I haven't been here in ages, but I'd just like to say that I'm amazed that someone has actually started work on a console Saturn emulator.

I don't really play my Dreamcast since modding my Xbox, but if this gets anywhere, it'll be worth it just for Nights and Guardian Heroes.

Keep up the good work and most importantly, have fun making the emulator.

I'll try to have fun... not sure if I will have much fun with it though

(just kidding). And thanks again to everyone for your support.

Right now, I'm having a little bit of trouble with my dynarec, it seems to be going out of the bounds that I put it in, so, its not working right now....

Out of curiousity, how are you dealing with endianness on mov instructions?

This is great 2 systems that people said would or could never be emulated on the DC are! Keep up the great work

Right now, I'm not. I'm letting the interpreter deal with it for now.

just a question bluecrab: What is your aim for this emu? Do you have any plan or idea of how far will it ever go and what it'll be capable of?

This is just out of my curiosity, no pressing involved

karsten: I'm not sure what my aim is. I think it might be just to prove that Saturn emulation of any speed is possible on the Dreamcast. It started out just being a challenge, now I'm not sure...

I bet you can achieve a playable status on some games / demos. Don't give up so soon.

Oh, I'm not giving up, no far from it, actually.... I'm reading up on Dynamic Recompilation to attempt it again, but my other projects are also jumping in the way (and at least one will help me out with yabause-dc, I hope).

Post by **BlueCrab** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 1:28 am

Okay, time for an update:
I have the yabause-0.0.6 source compiling and running on the dreamcast now, and well, its slow, but it works

Here's some new screenshots:

Tis all for now.

YEAH, this is promising...

Keep up the good work

Post by **BlueCrab** » Thu Jul 08, 2004 11:54 am

I have one more screenshot so far, and thus, without further ado, I present it to you.

Now, can anyone identify what it is?
