Probably best to save the bug reports until the next build, they’re mostly caused by the same thing that has been fixed.

I can't get out of the sewer after getting the shoe upgrade. Something seems to be up with ring pathing. It's pretty interesting to see these kinds of functional bugs instead of just graphical glitching.
Stand against the wall turn around to face the rings, jump and let go of the light dash

Trying to run Sega Rally 2 but it stuck at the first screen, any thoughts?
Metropolis Street Racer runs at stable fps and plays great!
OMG are u sure? MSR is one of the best DC games... Its the pre - Project Gotham racing from later Xbox, M$ Bill gates actual favourite game :).

Try Sega GT too, I love that game.

And when someone could make Test Drive Le mans 24 hours to run perfect visually and performance wise I think the emulator is fully done :) Its probably the most high visual quality impressive DC game, at least I loved it so much, never liked the more HD shinny PC version neither the PS2 version, but DC version I just went nuts with that game and I'm not even a fan of 24h Le mans and never played any other game of that kind more recent, but the one on DC was such a huge masterpiece.

Also liked a lot Virtua tennis, a friend of mine wasted so much money in that game insert coin lol... When I told him I actually had the game on a thing called Dreamcast lol he went nuts no need to insert coin :)

You have to go into settings and select the folder that has your roms to get them to show up.

does it work under DOSBox on Switch?

No because Typing of the Dead is not a DOS game.

Trying to widescreen patch games but in hex editor I don't know which values to replace. For example the code for confidential mission is 022F0D58 43700000 but does not say which values to replace.

@proffk Thats not a binary patch, that is a codebraker/Action replay code, it works in a completely different way than patching the main binary of the game.

Usually you will be given an array of bytes to find in hex and the array of bytes to replace it by.

For Confidential Mission you should
FIND
ABAAAA3F
Replace by
398EE33F

Every single instance as far as I recall.


You should check them here.

That make sense no wonder I could not find the correct values. I am in process of going through that thread.

I never said it was a DOS game idiot! I said it could PROBABLY RUN on DOSBox via MEANING Windows 95/98! but i bet you never knew that because you know nothing about it.

What the hell is wrong with you YOU ASKED IF IT RAN ON DOSBOX. IT HAS TO BE A DOS GAME TO WORK ON DOSBOX. Calling me an idiot? You're the idiot.

It's one thing to be wrong about it but to be throwing insults my way when you're wrong, just douchey.

You started it first but i'm gonna end it here before it becomes an unnecessary flaming war over something petite and not worth arguing over, sorry i called you an idiot but i just dislike when certain starts jumping on my neck over a small mistake.

No one jumped on your neck. I simply corrected you and couldn't handle it. Grow the F up people make mistakes you made a big deal of it NOT me.
