If you can, try to find ways to reproduce the problem, i.e., a procedure which always results in the problem happening. Report bugs or freezes if they happen, that way the devs will have a better idea of the problems when they start working on bugfixes. A clean dump is needed when working on Atomiswave > Dreamcast conversions, so for the time being the games will not be worked on.īesides showing your support, the best thing you can do is play the games. There are no clean dumps of these games available, only Naomi conversions. Will Kenju / Force Five / Premier Eleven be ported? We'll get it whenever megavolt85 or yzb release it. Its implied that ALL games will be eventually converted to the Dreamcast. The coin input uses the G2 bus, i.e., the expansion port, to receive commands it doesn't use the controller inputs. Why is the coin input not mapped to a button in the controller? The games must be reworked by megavolt85 or yzb with new functions to allow this feature in MODE. Not at the moment, for a couple of reasons: there's no space to hack functions allowing this into the code, and if it were done saves would take a lot of space on the VMU.īut as soon as TerraOnion implements SRAM saving into MODE, I will be able to save my SRAM settings and high scores, right? Viewtopic.php?f=5&t=13563&start=150#p136861Ĭould SRAM settings be stored in the VMU, in order to change settings while the game is running/save high scores? It has been stated by megavolt85 that since Atomiswave games run off cartridges, access time and reading speed from a GD-ROM may not be sufficient to have the games running as they should. Instead SRAM configurations must be injected into the GDI before playing. Game configuration is stored in SRAM, so can't be changed during runtime. Why cant I access the service menu in-game? The games run as they should, slowdown and all, on the Dreamcast. There is slowdown in XXXX game when playing on Dreamcast, but there's no slowdown on YYYY emulator, what gives? If the game is reported as working properly on the Dreamcast, but doesn't work properly on an emulator, contact the developers of the emulator to ask for support. The release threads focus on porting Atomiswave to real Dreamcast hardware. Game XXXX doesn't run properly on YYYY emulator, what do I do?

We refer to these games as conversions instead of ports because no source code is being recompiled: the target hardware is the same. Since the games' code is mostly untouched, and the hardware is essentially the same, the games run exactly as they should. No, its a conversion where only a few things are re-implemented. Is it emulation? How are these games running so well?!? Megavolt85, and now also yzb, implements these functions and builds a GDI image compatible with the Dreamcast. VERY ROUGHLY, only certain portions of the game must be retouched in order to allow the Dreamcast to run them natively
These systems are the ones that need to be adapted for the games to run on the Dreamcast
The notable differences are in the inputs, game loading mechanism (cartridges instead of GD-ROM), and the presence of SRAM to store settings and high scores. You can donate to megavolt85 via paypal to or at the website Īn arcade system from Sammy, the hardware is based almost 1 to 1 on Dreamcast hardware, which allows these conversions to be possible.

Since its implied that all games will eventually be converted, below is a list of all Atomiswave games (taken from demul) with a link to their original release thread. I am NOT associated with the devs releasing these games, I just wrote the FAQ. I try to keep the FAQ as accurate as possible, but I have no insider info, no deep knowledge of the conversion mechanism, and I have never developed for the Dreamcast.
