Votrax simulation in
#361740 - 12/25/16 06:02 AM


For folks that weren't following that long wishlist thread, Votrax simulation is in.
clrmame told me I didn't need Wizard of Wor and Gorf samples in my last run. Nice work guys.

Also reactor lost its samples too.

Along with QBert judging by source code update.

Wow, thank you very much to all the people involved. I am speechsample-less

Never been so close to the day where MAME will need no samples :-D

Now THIS was quite surprising news! Votrax SC-01 has been on my personal wish list for over a decade - so nice to see it finally becoming a thing!

I wonder how complete the simulation actually is? There really should be a write-up somewhere on this incredible progress, so vital is this to the preservation effort.

I was wondering about samples for Qbert so that answers my question about it. That's good to see. A write-up on the simulation would certainly make for interesting reading.

You still need the knock sound sample in Q-Bert.

Forgotten about that. Knocker isn't in the ROM. Machine have a knocker device.

Something like this?

Yeah, so unless someone writes a hammer sound simulator (with spatial settings to make it feel like the sound comes from the gound) that knock sample will "stay a while ... stay forever!"

I set it like this. Path samples only.

Keep those two checked. Let it scan. All of those got removed from the samples folder. qbert knocker stay.

The knocker shouldn't be hard to be replace with a better one.

Arrrgghh there's too many cool things happening at the same time!

Clearly the Wizard of Wor, the Gorfian Emperor and Q*Bert haven't hit puberty yet!

Since Galibert's already working on Votrax, it's not outside the realm of possibility he'd write a simulator like that, but that would ultimately be up to him or any other person who wants to do that.

Agreed. The pitch sounds way too high.

Either OG or couriersud might get filter support for Votrax and a couple updates so they won't have a pitch/frequency anymore that is comparable to the late Tiny Tim.
