Man you forgot me i'm so crazy about mahjong games, because the best part is the button Z on cheat codes to make a Ron "I just said naked women?"

That game won't ever be correctly emulated until someone reverse-engineers the entire SCU DSP (and probably the rest of the SCU as well). The existing documentation for that dsp (official docs by Sega) is ALL WRONG.

In MAME this only screws up VF Remix, but in other Saturn emulators it affects a handful of other titles... some of them pretty big names, like Quake, DOA, Sexy Parodius, and both Marvel / Xmen vs SF.

do the improvements in the St-v driver affect Radiant Silvergun? I remember that game still had some graphics problems in MAME.

Video emulation requires a major overhaul, several Saturn games really shows how much the complete lack of a plan hurts now. Problem being that this will give a performance hit as well ...

First thing that needs to be done with the SCU DSP is to have a proper CPU structure. Right now it's just un-debuggable in MAME so it can't be helped.

I Assume that it will have a performance hit, it´s logical if there´re unemulated features. Are you planning to rewrite the driver por that major overhaul in the video system? Or you mean it´s impossible with mame´s current status.
Thanks in advance for the work already done.

It's a special version of MAME that runs all emulated ST-V games at a constant 60fps on your moms Celeron M.

Performance hits for unemulated features being added are pretty much unavoidable. This is one of those times where it's better to do it right than to worry about speed. Might be a good time to consider formalizing your plan of attack-- unless you really enjoy working on whatever grabs you that day? If that's the case, then certainly carry on-- I enjoy watching the incremental updates either way, and always have.

Obviously, but I first want to get a decent compatibility on Sega Saturn before even start to think about it.
