+CyranoJ Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Here is an attempt to collect all the current (and future) ST ports into a nice, easy to browse thread complete with videos and download links. Video of most of these can be found on my youtube channel, captured via an Elgato - won't take you too long to find it, so won't pimp it out here. No, I will not release unlocked ROMs. The ones marked -skunk require a skunkboard, and will not work under emulation. Please do not ask for unlocked ROMs. I'd like to credit _orion (who wrote the original GPU planar to chunky routine - which none of these patches use) and SCPCD (who has refined it through several iterations into the streamlined pipeline feeding monster that it currently is) which, modified again, is used to render the ST screens. Various patches also use the U235SE or the Zerosquare Sound Engine. All the patches contain a very streamlined version of RAPTOR, used as the 'glue' in the 'simulation core'. The binaries in the original threads will be removed shortly to avoid duplication and confusion. How to use: There are a few ways to use these files. ABS Files: Send to Skunkboard via JCP - JCP <filename> Send to a Skunkboard via the JiFFI utility Convert to bootable CD with JiFFI and then burn with DiscJuggler Send to a BJL modified Jaguar via the BJL Uploader ROM Files: Send to a Skunkboard via JCP - JCP -F <filename> Send to a Skunkboard via the JiFFI utility Send the older, unlocked ROMs to an Alpine Board (The 4MB roms won't fit on a 2MB board... plus life is too short to wait that long) Send the older, unlocked ROMs to an Atari Development Cart Send the older, unlocked ROMs to a SNASM2 Jaguar Development System And now... onto the ports!

+BitJag Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) YES!!!!! Xenon II ! Thank you Bitmap Brothers and CyranoJ! It is mind boggling that this is actually happening. I noticed The Stare Quake link leads to the Super Sprint thread. Also, it seems like "Return to Genesis" had a rough port at some point...

Lynxpro Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Looks like you guys have mastered ST/STE and Amiga hardware, YM chips, and the POKEY. Would it be possible to do the same with Sega Genesis/Mega Drive chips or even something like the Atari Games System 1 Board? I think the only issues with System 1 would be the Jaguar's 68000 having to do the duties originally written for a 68010 and the TI speech synthesis chip. But the Gauntlet arcade ROM running on the Jaguar would be incredible. Then again, Tengen's Gauntlet IV on the Genesis is essentially the same thing with added bells and whistles. Impressive stuff!

Sorry, that's not me Its also possible if you know lots about one of the machines and are willing to learn the other. Its probably not going to be an optimal solution that way but you can still get some good results out of the conversion process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not the same complexity but when I did a Beeb to 7800 port I didn't know anything about the Beeb and managed to get it going from a RAM dump and subsequent disassembly. Unless the game is absolutely pushing the hardware (on the source platform) programmers tend to be quite methodical in their approach.

+phoenixdownita Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 (edited) There's still 3 youtube movies linked directly ..... we should fix that (maybe not Xenon 2) And on the topic of "port this, port that, it's easy this, it's doable that" I'd just feel like to say "THANK YOU" to CJ and leave it at that. If he cares enough to port anything else from whatever platform he chooses to source from even better, but as it stands it is already awesome.

The three movies are the ones without download links Thank you for the 'thank you' I started doing these to see if they could, then it was because it was fun. I don't have any goal, but i'd like to get the complete (we're at 21) to match Atari's release count. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walter_J64bit Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Notes: Music only Can the games with music only have sound effects added, or does the game code don't allow for sound effects to be added? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+doctorclu Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Notes: Music only Can the games with music only have sound effects added, or does the game code don't allow for sound effects to be added? I can say this much having heard what it took with Joust and Moon Patrol: it takes some serious tracking through binary code to find the pick ups for what sounds are associated with what. Takes some doing. Some pick ups are more quickly findable than others. Just glad most of the pick ups were found in Joust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+CyranoJ Posted January 5, 2016 Author Share Posted January 5, 2016 Notes: Music only Can the games with music only have sound effects added, or does the game code don't allow for sound effects to be added? They could, but as Clu said above - with probably more total effort required just for sound effects than goes into making them work in the first place. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dml Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Really quite incredible to see so many of these running. Especially given the differences in disk, user input and audio - and the different random ways coders went about doing things on ST... and what about all the MFP states those games must be messing with? Impressed! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynxpro Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 What about preserving the ST Mouse code in the various games? If you did that, and you had a DB9-to-EJP adapter, you could plug in a CX80 Trak-Ball Controller and use it in the place of the ST Mouse. Of course, if the games used the second mouse button, you'd have to add a button to the Trak-Ball. It might also be wise for the adapter cable to be a Y Adapter so you could still use the JagPad for the Pause Button and other functions just as people have made Y Adapter Cables for the 5200 for the very same reasoning.

Sorry, that's not me Or, we get a Genesis/Mega Drive expert in the same room with you, or collaborating across the net. Let's see…someone who knows the Genesis, and for added measure, the NES, the 2600, and other consoles. Someone who worked for Atari Inc, Atari Games/Tengen, and Sega. Survey says….
