jEnesisDS 0.6

I'd also like to help test any proposed fixes when you're to the point of beta-ing things.

Hey don't forget me too man!! Let's push the DS's hardware to the limit to create awesome emu's for SNES , NES, and Genesis!

Great work.
Unfortunately, as for chinese edition of Daikoukai Jidai II(Uncharted Waters II),when I select the main menu at map, the game will reset.
What's the problem?

[xneoken]

Forgive me if this has already been asked, but will soft-reset ever be implemented?

Ok, I've played it quite a bit over the past few days and i'm very pleased with the results.

Sonic games just weren't Sonic games without the music . Now they run almost perfectly, and look great on the small screen.

Thanks a lot for the great emulator. The Mega Drive Sonic games are almost all i play on my DS these days, along with the brilliant Sonic Megamix.

Anyone know why I can not play Sonic and Knuckles & Sonic 1 as it just gives me 'No Way!' screen, a special stage which can be accessed by pressing A+B+Y on the DS.

Does it not allow me to play the normal game? for now though, I am using Sonic and Knuckles release which works really well.

Lordus-
Congratulations on this release. I'm a musician, so I have a picky ear for sound, and I feel the sound you've implemented in this release is really quite good. I understand that you want to strive to improve it (an artist's work is never finished ) but for the purposes of playing on a portable system (like playing in public), the quality in the current build is more than satisfactory. Thank you so much for all your hard work.

I wanted to report a couple issues I'm having on a MMD w/512 MB CF:
1. Like some other MMD/G&M users, jEnesis 0.6 freezes when I tap the touchscreen. The select button works fine for me, however, and brings me to the ROM menu.
2. Something odd seems to be going on with 6-button controller support. When playing SFII:SCE, the game's button config menu only detects a 3-button controller, but all six buttons function during actual gameplay. The only other 6-button game I have on my card, Eternal Champions, seems to work properly. jEnesis 0.5 doesn't have this issue (using the same ROM file, same MMD, same everything). Not a huge issue, obviously, but a bug worth mentioning.

I'd be happy to help with testing for MMD. Let me know if I can be of any assistance, and thanks again for such an amazing emulator.

Knuckles isn't playable in Sonic 1 so that's exactly what it should do, even on a proper Mega Drive/Genesis console it will do that.

Reminds me to test Sonic 2 & Knuckles to see if that will work, I know Sonic 3 & Knuckles won't work because the *you know what* size is too big.

Oh and another thing, has anyone noticed that if you have a save state of a game in a later level and you load straight to it just as the game is loading up say for example from the Sega logo screen. The sound in that level for me is most likely distorted either sounding really bad or just a bit different. It's funny so give it a try and see if it does the same for you guys. Of course if I want the sound to be fine then I just let the game load up to the menu or first level before I load a state then it's fine.

[Jeric]

Well he DID state that he was a bit lazy about savestates and sound, so that's probably the cause. Just one of thsoe things to get fixed orworked on in a latter release I guess.

Really awesome, great with sounds. But I dont understand the "widescreen" in-game. When I played genesis on 4:3 TV back inte the 90's there was no widescreen. Why is the screen so wide on Nintendo DS now?

Edit:
All the games seems to work perfect except NHL.
NHL 95 Elitserien (E) [c][!].bin - A little laggy, but still very playable! (damn funny, swedish game)
NHL 96 (F) [!].bin - Crash after team-controller select
NHL 97 (F) [!].smd - Crash after team-controller select
NHL 98 (4) [c][!].bin - Crash after team-controller select

I get a "division by zero" error in the top left corner...

Edit2:
In NHL97 if I turn on "User Records" (?) I can get past the team-controller select menu, but then I come to "user entry" and then game crash after that.
