what about other projects ? :)

[chui]

- PSX4ALL: Working on it but still it is preliminar stage. I have rewritten all code and without sound and video render runs very close to full speed. Also it has serious bugs for being real usable.
- UAE4ALL: Stalled. ToDo: Build a sound render using Dreamcast ARM. Also rebuild using gcc-4 and newest SDL.
- DCaSTaway: New release. Very close to final release.
- NEO4ALL: Stalled. ToDo: Solve VMU bugs and other minor bugs . Rebuild using gcc-4 and newest SDL.
- ZX4ALL: New release. ToDo: Emulate content memory and solve some loading problems.
- MAME4ALL: Stalled. ToDo: Solve cache for loading bug and rebuild using gcc-4 and newest SDL.
- GENS4ALL: Working on it. Fox68k are writing a assembler VDP.
- SNES4ALL: Stalled. Fox and me are thinking about rebuild all. Maybe we will work on a multiplatform ZSNES at the future.
- Devel: I will release Allegro libraries for Dreamcast coming soon. Also I will release the newest SDL and OpenGL.

sounds awesome, it might be best to host at dreamcast.es, i think it might cause server problems here, although a mirror here would be good.

fanntastic amount of games :)

Thank You Chui!
I was was waiting for the Dcastaway release. Love the
Atari ST.
Have tried this emu and it looked great, it's near perfection...
Found just a small bug in the menu. The shortcut buttons (L/R) don't match the function (Reset/Run).

Glad to see your projects are running well.
Keep up the good work :)

Great to see you're around Chui, I'll probably try ZX4all in the near future, so far I never found the time.

Anyone know what's up with Ron, he had a lot of stuff announced as well.

I Can't wait for allegro as for PSX4ALL... Keep up the good work... For the Compilation CD, Try Hosting at FileFront.com, They don't care what you put on there as long as its legal (Warez Free), No Waiting for downloads (which helps us out plenty)

ToDo: Build a sound render using Dreamcast ARM.

You should contact bouz from dcreload, he has a S3M player running on the AICA.

Hey Chui i'd like to say thanks again for these amazing things you bring to the Dreamcast Scene. I believe right now its the Spanish scene thats making the Dreamcast stay alive. Its quite funny how it changes from one country to another.

I have downloaded the new DCastaway and all i have to do is test it out. I can probably guarantee that this one is going to be alot better then the last one though the last one wasnt bad either. I aswell as others cant wait to see the PSX4all that would be a great thing to see.

[hansblitzenburg]

Awesome work! I am absolutely loving the Atari ST emulator atm. Admittedly I mostly use it for the Bitmap Brothers games however ;) And Neo4all/CD is brilliant, I managed to get so many of my old favourites working great! Your efforts are much appreciated.

[SiZiOUS]

You are a true God Chui. Keep up the great work.

He is THE one.

Cheers!
