Manuel Leiria Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Ok, so I have a doubt. I know I can separate between Sega 32x, Sega CD and Sega CD 32x. However, @reignstumble's console artwork pack doesn't include a Sega CD 32x, and also, the amount of games on that combo platform is extremely reduced. So, considering I have both a Sega 32x and Sega CD, where do you consider I should place the Sega CD 32x games? I'm inclined toward Sega CD due to the disk format, but I'd like some opinions.

Charco Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I would be inclined to put them with the Mega CD games as opposed to the 32X games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 If you put them in the CD category and you use RA with the GensGXP core for CD games the 5 CD32X games will have to have a custom config or they won't launch as only PicoDrive core will work for them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manuel Leiria Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 Good to know DOS76! Since it's just for 5, 6 games, it won't (hopefully) be too much of a hassle besides adding arguments to the emulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charco Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) I guess you could manually edit those 5 games to have Picodrive as the emulator for them. Edited December 12, 2016 by Charco 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) @Charco I meant the PicoDrive core in RA you could make a 2nd instance of RA using the same exe but configure the new one to use PicoDrive core for Sega CD instead. @creamdonut I think if you put in -L "cores\Picodrive_libretro.dll" in the command line for each game it will work.

Manuel Leiria Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 @DOS76, I'll try that once I get home. I've been reading about 32X emulation in the meanwhile, and it seems only Kega Fusion manages a decent enough emulation, as per what I'm reading. I have a rather beefy pc, so I'm going to try with PicoDrive and see how it goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I have the games working in PD but haven't really played to much they all seem to load up without any issues though. I haven't used Kega for awhile now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FistyDollars Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Like others have said, I keep them with the regular Sega CD games. Makes sense to have all the disk images together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 If you put a -L command on a game and there is one in the associated platforms tab for RA as well, it might crash. The best bet is to keep it as it's own platform and just scrape as Sega CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Doesn't Sega CD32X have it own section on the DB with it own covers so woldn't scapping as Sega CD get you the incorrect art work anyway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SentaiBrad Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Does it? I just checked, and yep, it does. It needs to be outfitted with media and metadata (something that a lot of systems will be going through when Alex removes, combines and adds a ton of stuff) but for sure it's a valid, oddly valid, platform and we should outfit that section. It doesn't have too many games, so I'm sure it can get completed fairly fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Supposedly there are 6 games but the one remains to be dumped.so you will only have 5 in your collection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
