Short: Sega Genesis/Megadrive emulator Author: DGen team, Morphos port by AmiFreak Uploader: lanch tiscali it (Fabrizio Bartoloni) Type: misc/emu Version: 1.23 Requires: PowerSDL.library Architecture: ppc-morphos Note from uploader: this is the latest version I had on my HD, if you have any newer feel free to upgrade this archive. This is a quick recompile of the dgen-sdl megadrive/Genesis emulator (http://www.pknet.com/~joe/dgen-sdl.html) for MorphOS. There are probably quite some bugs/problems as I haven't played around with it alot yet so use it at your own risk. This archive also includes a tool called Tobin which allow conversion of .smd rom files to .bin rom files. DGen was originally written by Dave . It was ported to SDL by Joe Groff and Phil K. Hornung . The following people have also made contributions to DGen: Andrew Bazan - Got DGen/SDL to run under BeOS. Steve Snake - The author of the best DOS emulator KGen, was also very patient with my stupid questions about the Genesis, thus allowing me to fix little emulation quirks. ;) Amy Lear - Helped add 8-bit sound support. :) Daniel Wislocki - Improved the sound engine to be nicer to higher-end systems. John Stiles - He works on the Mac port of DGen, and what a job he does! He wrote the original raster engine, and also has sped things up enormously. Dylan Griffiths - Rewrote a lot of the string-handling code to make it much less evil-looking. Allen Noe - Added screenshot functionality. Jeff Grady - Fixed compilation problems with gcc snapshots. Cameron Moore - Fixed SDL joystick initialization problems. Daniel Robbins - Helped fix timing problems on very fast machines. Andre Souza - Added OpenGL rendering mode. All the real/hard work to get it running on MorphOS was done by the following people: Sigbjørn Skjæret - MorphOS version of GCC 2.95.3 Gabriele Greco - Amiga/MorphOS port of SDL Daniel J. Barrett - Amiga version of getopt() (http://de.aminet.net/aminet/aminet/dev/misc/GetOpt-1.3.lha) MorphOS specific notes: - Copy the dgenrc file to s:dgen/. If the dgenrc file is not found in s:dgen/ Dgen will check the current directory, if it's not found there either dgen will exit with an error message. - dGen is pretty slow and probably only useable on heavily overclocked CyberstormPPC cards :-( - Sound is disabled by default edit your dgenrc file to enable sound. More information about the rc file can be found in the dgenrc man page. history: 17-08-2002: - very small optimization in z80 core switch statements 08-08-2002: - Initial MorphOS compile - fixed joystick stuff - changes some path stuff future: - Try to get it running under WarpOS (currently gives a very nice WarpOS:-). - Make sure everything works properly. - Release sourcecode changes (there are only some VERY MINOR changes to the original source). contact: Email: AmiFreak@chello.nl
