68000 is like 286 (but much better than 286...) 68030 is like 386DX/40... But with some hardware MP3 encoder in cartrige maybe... Yes, but the speeds are tremendously different. First, the 030 clock is about four times as fast. Second, the 030 uses fewer clock cycles per instruction than the 000. T...

Well, I wasn't born "back these days"... :wink: MD was pretty expensive thing, and they cut costs from everywhere (and the sound part makes me REALLY angry !!! I'd kill that guy who designed the mixing circuits in MD !!!) And in my mind, putting a pair quad flip-flops into the chipset and few more ...

I can't imagine the communication between Z80 and 68K side, since both can't access YM2612 at time... and I agree with you, that's a stupid way of communication... why SEGA didn't put a buffer into MD, so you don't have to stop Z80 to communicate with it ? PCM would get so fucked up... Remember tha...

It seems that my Z80 MSE can play 2 channels of PCM samples at YM2612 sampling rate which is 52KHz. Thanks for the info !!! As for NOPping, i'll do some deeper invertigation to get to know the more or less exact delays required. Ever needed more channels but don't want to spend the time scaling and...

Very nice! Even the few RPGs I've played on the PSX don't look better.

Sounds like DOOM music.

Does code blocks allow you to have a different .ld per project? Because, for a simple megacd game, you have minimum of 3 .ld , and each game is different ^^. You can set per project compiler choice, linker options, etc. If you follow the guides here, you setup a special compiler setting specificall...

There are a lot of charas from games such as Phantasy Star series, Shining Force, Soleil (Ragnacenty), Light crusader, Story of Thor (Also on Saturn), The Birdman from Alien Soldier, Colour guys from Gunstar Heroes, and a long etc... We're not talking about characters in general, but ones where say...

No problem. Just for reference, I'm using it in 64 bit Fedora 7 (linux).

Most folks here use asmx. It'll not only do 68000 using "normal" syntax, it'll do the Z80 for you too!

...it's -Wall ... :oops: I switched to StefDevKit's GCC. After a fight with asm file and a bug in the .ld file, I finally produce my binary...which lose 20k (on 64k)!! ok, I vote, XGCC is now history!!! :) hop, jump to Eclipse configuration...next week Seems a lot of guys has trouble with the .LD f...

Well, according to the schematics, the reset switch goes to the control chip, which then generates a reset signal to the 68000, the VDP, and Z80/YM2612. The Z80 and YM2612 use the same reset line, so anytime the Z80 is reset, so is the YM2612.

The 1084 my Genesis is hooked to can take anything from about 45 Hz to 80 Hz. I'd try it but I'd need a CD version as I don't have a flash cart.

That makes no sense, because NTSC can handle 240 lines, i mean it is called 240p... That means the Genesis can't output it correctly. Yeah, the engineers probably only expect people to set 240 mode for PAL, so they do PAL stuff even though the Genny is still in NTSC mode. I wonder if adjusting vert...
