Master System on the Dreamcast

[Dandude]

Hi everyone!

I'm new here but I have loads of consoles and am into emulation.

I was just wondering, is there a way of playing Master System games on the Dreamcast?

[Darksaviour69]

Thank you very much for your help Darksaviour69, I appreciate it!

Is there a step by step tutorial on getting Master System games to run on the Dreamcast? If so, how easy is it to follow?

Err... that tutorial doesn't link to the latest version 1.0.1a.

It does, ...well kinda... :

I will have a look into updating all these tutorials when I got some time.


Btw, I noticed that the later versions of BootDreams do not dummy your CDRs properly. The file they create is 1KB big....

:-\ I'll take a look...

Try again, it worked fine for me...

So you download the Master System emulator and Boot Dreams? What does boot dreams allow you to do?

The problem with the latest version of SMS Plus (If that's what you're using), is that it won't save your emulator settings to your VMU. You have to change them everytime you boot up the emulator (I really hate having to adjust the screen everytime....)
