Is there any reason it would run differently on vista 64 vs. 7 64?

Firebrandx, what games have you tried? and where did you get the roms?

do you have checksums?

Nemesis,

you've got a great approach to emulating chips inside of a system and the way in which they interact with an XML file. I'm curious how you handle game cartridge layouts then.

Of course you want to use standard rom formats but how do you interpret what kind of pin layout a game had, or ...

I can confirm the problem with

Phantasy Star - Sennenki no Owari ni
Beyond Oasis

Thanks, that's exactly what I was hoping you would say. The first thing I used to do was turn those settings on, so I'm glad to hear that it's all on and being emulated by default.

I know in a past version of Exodus, you could select

Debug>VDP>Settings

it would bring up a settings window that would allow you to enable VRAM Sync, CRAM Sync, VSRAM Sync, as well as enable the emulation of two VDP Bugs

Flicker on CRAM write

I was wondering if these are ...

it's not THE hardest, but getting all the sprites to render properly in Thunder Force IV can be a challenge for some emulators.

I'm sure if you asked on their forums you could get a little more information behind the hardware

ah yes, that does complicate things a bit. I'd have to look up how to add the signals together.

This would be a great project. It would preserve the hardware, and allow you to play with theoretically less loadtimes. I'm looking to get floppy emulation hardware for a lot of my old PCs (X68000, FM Towns, etc) so an optical disk emulator also seems like a good idea.

There are already people ...

I made contact with a member named Tiido Priimägi... asking for his advice.

He replied:

This will not work because the YM2608 is not fully software compatiblewith YM2612, all games using the DAC channel will not have PCM samplesounds. I don't think the output is something other DACs can ...

Hey Nemesis, I was curious if there is any newer public build of Exodus than the one released in 2007

I don't mean to nag but I've been a fan for a long time and was just wondering if there have been any public updates since then.
