Arcade sites and emulators

about the model 3 emulator seems to be down.....

Anyone know why?

Anyways apart from that anyone got any information on the model 3 emulator?

Thnx

They could be all on the same server? I remember once when DC Emulation and a few other sites all went down at the same time. It turned out that they were all on the same provider.

Model 3 is not released yet, from what i know. It still being developed. Plus you will need a very powerful computer to run the games.... at 20fps

Model 2 still needs to be worked on, a couple of games run ok, but still no full speed, did model 1 ever get full speed emulation?

Model 1 is more complicated to emulate than Model 2 and Model 3, since there's little documentation on it. :smt009

I wonder who ever reverse-engineered the Model 1/2/3 or got his hands on a devkit... that must've been quite an achievement :smt023

Anyhow, I don't think this is allowed to be discussed here. Remember, no links to (links to) illegal stuff. And you ain't telling me you actually OWN a copy of the Model 1/2/3 BIOS and games :smt043

Well from what i read on some emulation boards, Model 2 and Model 3 emulation will be made avaiable soon, even though today's computers don't run it at full speed.

Model 1 emulation is stopped at the polygon part. The sprites part are basicly System 32, but they can't emulate the polygon without documentation. So they say it won't happen anytime soon. :-(

I was really just inetersted to read what happened to the emulator. But yeah i was actually thinking of buying a model 3 arcade but the only games i can find are shitty football ones...

Cool, I'm actually not opposed to buying a Model 2 for a good price myself... :-)

The Star Wars game on Model 3 looked very good :prayer:

One on ebay a few times was making £600+ though...

The hardware doesn't use shaders. So an Wildcat 3000 video card with 384mb RAM will be able to handle the emulator let alone be good enough to develop a game for it.

To bad there aren't many people arround with that kind of hardware :smt043
