+Saturn Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 3 hours ago, mckafka99 said: Although the graphic was the standard controller, to use my ‘newer version’ pro controller and the jag usb adaptor, I started by removing all the bindings it allowed me to remove (some said they had to have a bind and couldn’t remove) and then I started at the top of the list and one by one, added the appropriate controller binding. For those that ‘couldnt’ be removed, as I got to them while moving through the list, I was able to change them. Has been a great experience so far. Even some of the ST ports work also which has been awesome! Tried a different USB port and worked great, thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I retract this: I built new key bindings for my iBuffalo controller (looks like a SNES controller) to get the shoulder buttons working for the 4 & 6 keypad buttons. Now the camera pan in/out is working fine. I spent about an hour playing T2K... great game and the emulator seems near-perfect with this game now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what to make of that? Big hats off to the guys at Digital Eclipse for allowing Rich to make this freely available for all. What an awesome Christmas present he's given us. So joyful to hear " where did you learn to fly AND supercharger recharged" again after all these years. Best of luck Rich with your surgery this coming Tuesday December 6th. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagosaurus Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 This is a huge win. Has any1 (or collectively) tested all retail/licensed 52 cart games? What official releases are not working? Interested to see if any Jag cart games are now not able to be emulated between BPE, Pheonix, & VJ as options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaggy the Atarian Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) I heard about this when it was released the other day but just now got around to it. I don't use a ton of emulators (and haven't tried a Jag Emu before) but I love the interface for this. Played through the full Predator campaign on AvP with 2x RISC/68k cores and didn't notice much of an issue, apart from the collision detection being just slightly off (of course it wasn't perfect to begin with, maybe that was . Tried SuperCross 3D out of curiousity and even with everything cranked up, the game still plays like you're driving underwater I-War seemed to have some issues (ran too fast at defaults, some flicker) but I don't know if that's always the case for that game IS2 froze when I cranked up the cores, so I guess it doesn't like that too much I could never get Phaze Zero to work on my JagGD but works great here. Even more so if you push the speed up, although it does become slightly hard to play when really fast. I tried recording part of my AvP run but can't find the file nor anything in the manual about where it records. Anyone know? Just my experience but really enjoy it - kudos to Rich and hope he's able to beat that cancer back Edited December 5, 2022 by Shaggy the Atarian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jagosaurus Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 (edited) @ls650 thanks. Haven't DLed or navigated his site. That looks like 50 titles... quick scan refreshed my memory it was 50 vs 52 carts. Being... 44 standard releases + 5 extended support Telegames cart releases + Air Cars ... This is amazing. Only titles with caveats look to be Doom & VD Ski. Edited December 5, 2022 by Jagosaurus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter_J64bit Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I did get a controller to work today, I removed the third-party controller and used an OEM 360 controller and now everything work just fine now. 😒 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Had anyone on here attempted to download and try it on an Atari VCS? I don't have any need to emulate the Jaguar myself but playing them on the VCS may be kind of fun. I would assume it would work given you boot into PC Mode and go to the website and download, then somehow throw roms into the VCS or on a USB.

It's part of the Atari 50 (whenever it releases on VCS), so there's no reason it shouldn't work on VCS I do plan on trying it myself soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tho for me I'm on that Atari USB they sold that has Devian and Linux so there is no Windows on my PC Mode. But if I grab a USB with Windows then I'll try it. I tried downloading Wine to let a Windows program load and unzip on a Linux device but the program did nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+BitJag Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Just booted up Kubuntu on my VCS. The emulator works great. I was even able to map the VCS xbox style controller after a bit of effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was using the replica pro controllers with the emu today in fact! http://www.2600-daptor.com/Jaguar-daptor.htm Ordered mine this past Sunday. I mentioned the reason that I was ordering was specifically for this emulator. He said that explains a lot why sales of Jag-adapters have jumped! 😆 and I don’t even own a jag controller right now.. i’m close to getting one locally,I just got a seal the deal.

From the README.TXT included in the download ZIP: Quote Thank you to my daughter, Alaura, for brightening my life from the moment of her birth. By the way, if you go into the settings, you can find a switch to check and download version 1.01, which has some very interesting comments about bug fixes: Quote Version 1.01 - Added variable-sized EEPROM support, thanks to Reboot for providing some test cases. 512 byte and 2KB EEPROM settings are picked up from the MRQ file if it exists, otherwise any number of EEPROM address bits can be specified via the -eeprombits command line option. - Added JaguarGD bank switching support. - Fix for exception-handled M68K reads in unmapped address space. - Fix for Blitter not correctly wrapping cyan/red on add when ADDDSEL is set, thanks to ScatoLOGIC for reporting the BattleSphere bug which led to this fix. - Fix for Blitter not starting on the correct bit when block width is less than pixel size and phrase mode is not enabled, thanks to ScatoLOGIC for reporting the BattleSphere bug which led to this fix. - Going in for a major surgery tomorrow (2022/12/06), so expect that I'll be mostly unavailable and that there won't be any emulator updates for at least a couple of weeks. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
