I love your emulators. I use both this and the snes9x for 3ds. Thanks for your hard work and dedication.

Probably not the place to ask this but you mentioned dbz rpg 2/3, what is this? Google was no help.

Hey @bubble2k16!
Two questions...
1.- Any chance to have Nestopia palettes on your VirtuaNES?
2.- Any feedback about your progress on the Picodrive port?

Hmm... Nestopia palettes are currently not on my priority. :)

As for Picodrive, I don't have any time now to look at it. I'll probably want to carry over features from Snes9x to VirtuaNES and TemperPCE first, iron out some bugs before I start on Picodrive / Genesis.

Thanks. I'm glad you like it.

I think DBZ RPG is Dragonball Z ()

Yup. As a side note, if you are using an Old 3DS it's probably going to be very slow. The Old 3DS is already being pushed close to its max without a special chip. With SuperFX, frame rates will definitely tank. You can discuss about this over at the Snes9x 3DS thread.

Yes, I am planning for an update to carry over features from Snes9x 3DS. But I'm currently doing that for TemperPCE first, and fixing a number of bugs that you pointed out (especially those ARM11 crashing ones), and a couple of others.

Any updates to VirtuaNES 3DS may take a while.

Okay, thanks.:)

Hi all, newbie here.

First off I'd like to congratulate the creator, @bubble2k16, for a fantastic job, this is a kick ass emulator.

So now to my real reason I'm here...

I'm trying to create the .chx files but I cant get them to be seen by the emulator and I'm getting a bit flustered. If someone can make them work for me I would really appreciate it!

Cheers!

EDIT: I figured it out. It was Notepad complicating things.

Yay! v1.00 is released!

Changes include:

- Added key mappings to fast forward (capped at 180 FPS), and open the emulator menu.
- Updated configuration menu
- Added feature to auto-save state
- Migrated and fixed some mappers from VirtuaNESEx (thanks to the authors of VirtualNESEx)
- The following mappers are fixed/added: 4, 7, 16, 23, 34, 47, 49, 52, 65, 69, 71, 73, 74, 86, 91, 92, 121, 132, 141, 148, 150, 162, 163, 166, 167, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 173, 174, 175, 176, 177, 178, 179, 189, 190, 194, 198, 199, 212, 235, 237, 240, 241, 252
- Fixed VS mapper for Super Mario Bros
- Added ability to map any 3DS key to insert coin for VS games
- Fixed Lagrange Point VRC7 emulation for the Old 3DS by playing at 20KHz. The old 3DS was too slow to render sounds at 32KHz or even at 22KHz.
- Minor optimizations for sound generation.
- A number of games are fixed due to the mapper updates. Examples are: Crisis Force (Japan), Feng Yun (Ch), San Guo Zhi (Ch), and many others.

Awesome, congrats on the v1.00 release.
With that many mappers fixed and supported, I wonder what titles are still not working.

A small number of titles I know still don't work:

- Athletic Games and Fire Hawk seems to have some problem. Not sure what is the problem though...

- Rush'n Attack (Europe) version has a tendency to lock up randomly when starting the game. Not sure why... should just use the US version one.

- And some other 3D racing games like Slalom has some got visual artifacts (probably related to inaccurate timing issues), but nothing too- unplayable though.

- Those VS dualsystem games won't work.

- I think a lot of those unlicensed Chinese games don't work. But if anyone has a thing for them, as some members on this forum do, a lot of Chinese games work well too. :)

I only hope I never broke any games that were previously working! :rofl2:


And btw, Merry Christmas to all!!!! :grog::grog::grog:

Impressive stuff! I'm looking forward to trying out Rockman 4 Minus Infinity, as that game does some special heatwave effects on Pharaoh Man's stage.
By the way, the v1.00 download link in the first post is actually still for v0.92

    @K3Nv2 what was your ps4 situation

    did you always have a ps4 you never updated

    Speaking of PLaystation. I see Evilnat put out a beta for PS3 CFW 4.91.2 on the 22nd.

    Don't really see the point in updating it tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right, I thought about updating my PS3 CFW to 4.91, but why really, everything plays fine now. I guess for people that have already updated past 4.9 it would be helpful.

    Thats true, personally I don't play it online at all, in fact, I deleted all wifi details on it once I installed CFW, so it won't connect and auto-update itself
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
