I have a (rather old) NVIDIA 5200 and games now run two to three times slower than they did in the last beta. (ingame : before - 150% now - 60%)
I am using the nullPVR plugin with the same settings as in the old version (and I tried messing with them) and I have also tried all of the new framebuffer settings.
This probably due to the use of more pixel shader stuff...

... And disc swapping still doesn't work. Some multidisc games are simply unplayable without it.

The graphics look nicer, though.
I guess I can understand why you guys weren't too enthusiastic about releasing a new version.

Cosmic Smash (Naomi GD-ROM) controls and collision system are totally messed up (its seems a protection problem)

The Guru's ROM Dump News - Naomi Dump Status apparently lists the known decryption keys.

Dreamcast runs Dreamcast games and Naomi runs Naomi GD-ROM games

First one only runs "images" (mds, gdi, cdi ...) and second one only runs lst (its a information archive about the rom, like a cue but for compressed packages of roms)

Well, I found those keys a couple minutes after I posted. Got Z3U running soon afterward, but... the input doesn't work! Pressing 5 doesn't insert any coins, and hitting the jab button as you would on the cabinet doesn't bypass any screens.

Grandia 2 plays intro video at 60 fps, only some average pixel distortion, sound 100%.

Ingame, Music is 100%, Voice is 100%,
Visually, the game is very viewable, but pixels flash off and on, and sometimes disappear, often very disorienting when you can't tell which way the character is facing.

Menus are 100%

The sprites in-battle are fine except the shadows, music is fine, but no sound effects or voice.

Top notch work, I think that nullDC has less remaining objectives than accomplished objectives.

Wups, you're right, my mistake

Mooore test, Street Fighter Zero 3 Upper (GD-ROM this time xD)

As said, you can enter money and music is gone so this is just a nice couple of CPU demos

So this is awsome and it works great but it seems to work almost too great. When trying to run games everything runs at around 3x speed. limited graphical errors it's just turbo mode turned to 11 so yea if I'm just missing a limit to original speed clicker it would be nice if someone could point a way to that clicker.

PC settings
3ghz c2d
nvidia 8800gtx
3.5ghz ram
windows xp sp2

Talking

Hello guys, nice job on this release!As mentioned before, is there any possible way that we can reuse the old xbox 360 joypad plugin to play this?Imho, it kind of defeats the whole reason of why we play emulators on pc, I use the 360 wireless controller since its the closet in general design to the Dreamcast controller but with more buttons.

On a side note:I got the F355 game to work with this release.All you do is wait till the loading freezes at the start up, then click on the dos screen and press enter and hold it till you get a responce from the emulator.Dont know why that works but it does.XD

I love the way Shenmue looks now!its amazing!Soul Caliber looks great also with that tiny little bloom effect that I noticed in the emulator!Great job with everything since I can now play Vigilante 8 without haveing to use the Chankast plugin.

Only thing I had any problems with really was the lack of gamepad support with this release, but im trying to get accustomed to useing the keyboard untill we get a proper fix.Thank you guys for makeing a great program!

I am not going to whinge about the input plugin being left out of this release, It was Drk||Raziels decision and his emulator so we have no right to complain.

Don't get me wrong I would have loved for it to be in this release, but xpadder cannot be compared to nulldc's superior joystick input plugin.

Just wait until Drk||Raziel fixes the nulldc input plugin and puts it back in
