3DO Emulation

Le Taon · June 19th, 2007

here we go...
lets talk about te great console...

what emulator do you use?

**RPGW1ZaRD** · June 19th, 2007

FreeDO is your only choise AFAIK, 3DO seems rather painful to emulate. It works fine too appearently if you check the project status, not much remains to be fixed.

what about Phoenix 35 and Phoenix 35.1 ? There are also other versions of that emulator, but they are test versions not for public

Le Taon · June 28th, 2007

Hello? does anybody use that emulator?

**Chrono Archangel** · June 28th, 2007

you just said that it's not available to the public... why would anyone else have it?...

do you read my post attentive? "what about Phoenix 35 and Phoenix 35.1 ? There are also other versions of that emulator, but they are test versions not for public" - that was about Phoenix morphing 0 - test ver and about Freedo 1.81 test ver. This emulators were for test only

but Phoenix 35 and Phoenix 35.1 were reliesed on cristmas holidays, they are available to the public for about a half-year! Russian 3DO community plays Phoenix for a long time

I thought, that you know about it.

you can download it here:
35.1 ver - http://altmer.arts-union.ru/3DO/downloads/FreeDORE.rar

and read about it on the official site HERE it's a Russian site, so use Translators

I don't have a link for 35 ver, but i will post it soon

i think, you can post that News on the main page, cause everyone outside Russia don't know about that 3DO emulator

Don`t worry Le Taon, there are MANY people interested in this emu.

But, is it still being developed so we can expect new versions in the future?

Thanks for the info.

3DO emulation seems interesting... may give a try in the future.

I think so.
the author of the Phoenix is developing 3do converter for PC mouse ps\2 and other hardware work, and have no time for the emu.

but the work is still in progress. and as you know - there are Summer holidays now

3D0 is awesome.

IDK why you guys have to hate. Gex, Megarace, etc were all sweet games.

FreeDO and Pheonix are the only emulators I know for this system. If you're lucky, you might be able to find the ISA card 3d0,and if you have an ancient computer with an ISA slot, you wouldn't even have to emulate it.

I guess the CDs are encrypted, and all sorts of crazy stuff, so 3D0 is hard to emulate.

I think if there were more emulators, the 3d0 would be more popular overall.

Le Taon · July 19th, 2007

I don't think that Gex and Megarace were the great games for 3DO - of course Gex is great, but it was not only the 3DO game - it was made for PS1 and PC too.
But there are a really cool game - such as Death keep - you will not find a typical game - cause this ganre (true AD&D) was really rare. You will not find a game like Robinsons Requiem, Demolition Man, Virtuoso, Phoenix 3 on other platforms, because 3DO games have there own face
