NEW DreamCast Emulator: nullDC v1.0.0 Beta (Runs games at FULL SPEED!)

Okay, that’s your problem. The emulator is in the protected Program Files folder, so running the nullDC like a normal user prevents any settings from being saved. Either run nullDC as an admin just to change settings (then you can run it as a normal user afterward), or reinstall it into a non-Program Files folder.

Mmm thing is Im logged on as the Admin (I think since there are no other user accounts on my laptop). And all the permissions are set to tick:

Full control
Modify
Read & Execute
Read
Write

The only one that isnt ticked is Special Permissions. This is both for Admin and SYSTEM groups.

Your account may be the admin, but by default the programs are run as a normal user, not an admin. Right click on the emulator and select “Run as administrator” to run it as an admin.

Just tried that and changed the Buffer settings (obviously before the game has started), pressed Ok, went back to check the Buffer and it just went back to its default value lol. Btw Im running nullDC 1.0.0.

Please tell me you mean nulldc for psp, and not just a psp emu.

Yes, nulldc for PSP (or so he says). People are saying to make it run full speed there will be many options taken out and such. IDK and don’t really care since I hate PSP but yeah, it would be cool none the less. No alpha or beta version has been released either. This is the only thing I don’t like about NullDC, it takes to fucking long for a release. The last release was almost a year ago. We need a new release with Naomi support soon.

LOOK AT THE FUCKING PERCENTAGES!!! Enjoy.

Also, supposedly the new release of NullDC was supposed to be 12 hours ago!!! Did not happen because of time constraints though. This means we will see one soon though, GET HYPE!!!

EDIT: NEW VERSION COMING OUT IN THE NEXT DAY OR TWO!!! (Straight from DrkIIRaziel himself)

All I want out of this is a 100% working Marvel/ST because all Dreamcasts will eventually die.

If you guys want specific changes please tell me because he (raz) is asking me what he should incorporate in the newest build, POST WHILE HE’S FINISHING THIS FINAL BUILD!!!

Better optimization for Vista PLEASE, we all know NullDC works better in XP but some of us are kinda getting left in the dust.

My comp doesn’t have XP drivers and I’m sure there’s others that are in the same situation too.

is it possible for nullDC to be a little less memory intensive (uses less memory)? just curious.

if he could do that, that’d be awesome. i’ve got nothing else to ask.

Why ST? You can just use a CPS2 Emulator for that.

True enough.

Fix the hookjoy app., make it easier to use or just implement kaillera instead.

this. Hell yea.

Current stuff by Raz:

The emu only uses up like 110 megs of ram so he said using less memory would probably not be possible. 110 megs is small to these days standards.

Doesn’t care about support and such because he progs the emu for himself, not others. In fact, he hates videogames and arcades in general. He progs emus for the fun of a challenge.

The code vanished for the joypad support. Looks like we’ll have to use joy2key or xpadder again. He’ll be adding it in the next version, hopefully he can reincorporate it into this version as well before releasing it.

The naomi games he’s tested are doing well. There is around 15 megs of source so he can’t fix everything at once.

What the fuck?

Believe me, I feel with you. I even said WTF when he first said it. He’s also a perfectionist though so he’ll make it all work out in the end (hopefully).

sweet!

Hope this advances more the naomi emulation, the past emus ran the games so slow :confused:
