sarge1979 Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Can anyone help me with Dreamcast emulation. The games lack massively. I have a decent gaming pc so that is definitely not the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreamcast is relatively straight forward, and i would recommend the standalone Redream emulator as its easy to use and should "just work" out of the box.

sarge1979 Posted October 3, 2021 Author Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) On Demul on Sonic Adventure 2 it was lacking but on Redream it works fine. I have not been on Big box for ages so I forgot about different emulators you can select to see if it works better with certain games. Thank you Edited October 3, 2021 by sarge1979 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Demul is old and no longer updated, it's not recommended for Dreamcast these days, Redream and the Flycast core in Retroarch are far better choices. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bundangdon Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Yep, I'd go with Redream or Flycast (Retroarch) and only use Demul for the arcade stuff (Naomi 2, I think is the only one it runs the best) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lino11 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Thanks for the updates! I loaded up the Flycast core and it runs so smoothly!!! Granted, Demul always worked great for me, too, so I don't have any real complaints there..... but I can't believe how crisp Flycast is. Only small issue I noticed with Flycast........ no "bing bong bong bong" Sega swirl when loading up each game! How will I even know I'm playing Dreamcast!!?!?! thanks again!

How will I even know I'm playing Dreamcast!!?!?! In the flycast core options are you using the HLE BIOS? If you are using a real BIOS and that is disabled you should get the startup swirl and sounds.

lino11 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Ok thanks, I'll have to find that..... I got the dc_boot and dc_flash bin's.... those still the right ones? With Retroarch's new UI design, I can't find that HLE Bios toggle in the menus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be under Options in the Quick menu after you start a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
