Congratulations to the nullDC team, this is some great work. We have tested this emulator and it is now the best DreamCast emulator available. Most games emulate/run at FULL SPEED with minor glitches, if not, unnoticeable glitches.

P.S. If you’re wondering if most of the fighting games work – they do. Take a look at the compatibility list linked above if you’re interested. :wgrin:
Well, I had everything running perfectly fine with Chankast. In fact my personal concern was not speed but speed limiting. So, this thing has a frame limiter? Cause Chankast unfortunately had none and most of the games run waaay too fast, even on a now clearly outdated machine…
Yes, it’s much easier than Chankast. Chankast was slow at times and very buggy. Getting games to work on that emulator wasn’t always fun as well.
The only “complicated” feature about nullDC is the plugins feature which allow you to change the plugin for controls, graphics, sound, and ISO/CD loading. However, the best plugins are the default plugins. So you really don’t have to touch the plugin settings at all, unless you want to boot from CD or change your control type (keyboard is the only option atm)-- or feel a little curious about what each one does. Last but not least, if you don’t find or have the correct bios – that could be a problem too (don’t post/ask for the bios as it is illegal).
I’m a bit tired right now. Hopefully, I’ll have a better explanation for you soon.
In the meantime, your best bet is to give this emulator a shot, and see for yourself.:lovin:
Currently in the first release, this emulator only supports the keyboard. HOWEVER, if you download a program called Joy2Key … you can use a joypad. I don’t have time to search for it now, but you should easily find it on Google.
