Pourquoi ce pouet ? Car arrivé à la fin du disque 1 de Parasite Eve, je ne pouvais pas passer au disque 2 car je n'avais pas fait de playlist et mes sauvegarde correspondait qu'au premier disque...
En bricolant un peu, ça fonctionne ! #parasiteeve
Never have heard of this Zeebo console from Brazil/Mexico before but looks like it was just emulated and apparently has an incredible version of Double Dragon that I absolutely need to check out sometime.
Back from camping, and I've got a TON of news to cover! From Nintendo purchasing Shiver, to PCSX2 adding in new features! Check out the latest in gaming, tech, emulation and open source news here:
I have been replaying Grandia on the Miyoo Mini plus for the #VideoGameClub and have been really enjoying it. I feel it looks better on the smaller screen and I like that I can overclock it as well. #VGCMay2024#Grandia#Emulation
I see with RetroArch on iOS, the “#emulation is illegal” rubbish has clawed its way back into the daylight. Emulators are legal. Yes, many files people load into them may not be legit but that doesn’t make the tech itself illegal any more than it makes e-readers, music players and video players illegal.
Maybe people should concentrate more on encouraging publishers to provide legal routes to play (and buy) old games than spreading rubbish about emulators.
@craiggrannell It's especially infuriating when people are like that about platforms with healthy homebrew, modern commercial and freeware scenes, because it's the emulators that inspire those to exist in the first place, to a great extent.
@craiggrannell The whole thing has resonances with “no person is illegal”. Obviously I’m not drawing a direct equivalence, but that some people in migration may enter illegally doesn’t make any person illegal.
Also, I’d LOVE to see some sort of codification of abandonware laws, similar to the right to repair movement.
DOSBox Staging v0.81.1 has been released. Rejoice! 😎 🥳
The main focus of this maintenance release is to fix a couple of regressions introduced in 0.81.0, most of them related to game compatibility, and address a few long-standing issues.
This release was made possible by everyone who tried 0.81.0, submitted bugs and pull requests, and tested the updates. Thank you! 😎
So I have been playing around with the Miyoo mini and have really been loving it. The ps one capability and also the Ds are great on it. I was a bit shocked about the ds as I thought I would hate playing that system on it but the button mapping is spot on with the Onion firmware and you can switch screens no problem. Highly recommend #emulation#retrogaming#videogames#handhelds#miyoominiplus
The article dives into how well many peripherals and accessories can be emulated. It focuses exclusively on officially licensed hardware that software interacted with. In brief:
Most stuff is emulated just fine (37/47)
A small % needs just a bit more work (9/47)
Only 1 item is completely unemulated
We've done a lot of work over the years, and it shows!
The "this week" to be released DOSBox Staging 0.81.1 maintenance release will also include the option to emulate video memory access delays.
We’ve added the new vmem_delay setting to the [dosbox] section to more closely emulate the behaviour of old video cards. This approximates the CPU-throttling effect of accessing slow video memory via the ISA bus. The feature was adapted from DOSBox-X based on a tip by MX9000. Thanks man! 😎
To enable the feature, just set vmem_delay to on in your config. This can help reduce or eliminate flicker in Hercules, CGA, EGA, and early VGA games and “even out” emulation speed in speed-sensitive titles.
vmem_delay = on fixes the flashing graphics and various speed issues in at least the following titles:
Corncob 3-D
Corncob Deluxe
Crazy Brix (vmem_delay = 2000 and cycles = 70000 makes the game run smoothly)
Future Wars (also needs cycles = 1000)
Gold of the Aztecs, The
Hostages (also needs cycles = 1500)
Operation Stealth (when VGA or EGA is selected in the game’s setup)
Quest for Glory II (fixes the too-fast vertical scrolling in the intro)
