Talking Virtual Jaguar ported to GCC/SDL!

The author(s) from Virtual Jaguar Project stopped working on the Atari Jaguar emulator and released the sources under the GPL license. Unfortunately they developed the emulator using MS Visual C++ with SDL (<- this is a good thing ) but the difference between VC++ and the GCC (GNU C/C++ compiler) are enormous. So, we from sdlemu have tried to convert the sources from VC++ to GCC so we can enjoy Virtual Jaguar on other platforms as well. Well, within 2 hours we got it compiled on GCC (it took some heavy changes in the asm sourcecode) and I got it running on WIN32 (using mingw) and Linux (RH7 on i386). Caz got it succesfully running on BeOS

The current sources are a straight port from the original sources but only some debug stuff was disabled to boot the emulator much faster. Here are some screens to enjoy you with :



Here we have it running with Kusami Ninja and 2nd one is running Alien vs Predator. The 2nd screenshot is garbled but could be because of a bad dump I used.

More info soon
