| Hiya guys, is there a decent Sega megadrive emulator yet? I had one before but i dont think it was 080 optimized and as a result crawled!!!

| The one you had before - have you tried it on your Vampire, or not? I would think every kind of software will run faster on 080, unless badly coded. It has a quicker clock frequency than most (not overclocked) 68k CPU's anyway and should run everything a bit quicker.

Dgen seems to be your only choice. EXTERNAL LINK I dont remember anyone reported how does (or does not good) work on Vamp, you could give it a try. Its 2017, 020+ RTG ixemul.library 48+ which is all good. Unless ixemul lib makes any kind of trouble. There are 040 no fpu and 040 with fpu ixemul libs, so I hope one does work well. Ixemul 48+ EXTERNAL LINK

| I found this video EXTERNAL LINK But this emulator is available? In the description is written that works fine on 68040+ The megadrive emulation seems almost perfect, but I don't find the emulator anywhere

| Video says 68040 (JIT emulation) aka runs in WinUAE. Tried DGen (can be found here: http://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/dgen-68k) in WinUAE and reached ~35fps. On the Vampire 2.11 this is more like <1 fps unfortunately. Remember a thread at eab... As it is a port of the PC version, the program emulates the MC68000 cpu which is kind of redundant ;) DGen may run on real hardware, if someone is able to replace the cpu emulation with the real thing...

| OK, so better port is needed. Video description is quite missleading. (at least until Vamp reaches UAE Speeds) Dgen SDL sources are avail here EXTERNAL LINK I supose its dependent on SDL and OpenGL performance so currently might really be "a Vamp no go". Surely, emulation of (already existing) 00 CPU would nice to skip.

| also here's something EXTERNAL LINK 8bitdo do a Bluetooth/wireless conversion board for the sixbutton megadrive controller, and they have a standard 9pin megadrive/gensis port to Bluetooth receiver on pre-release. maybe amiga compatible?
