QFG2 Remake
:: Posted at 20:08 GMT by Gemini
-
This is not emulation related, but AGD Interactive recently released their remake of Sierra's Quest for Glory II: Trial by Fire.
QFG2 was originally released in 1990 as a 16-color EGA game. It was the only game in the Quest for Glory series that never had a 256-color VGA version.
The AGDI version uses Adventure Game Studio and runs on Windows.
OK major speed ups. Main site mirror script tweaked. Ads removed on most
things. Over 400MB 10000 files backed up. Also some cool sites have been
added/mirrored.
EmuUnlim is finally up after being down for some time. It is now hosted
on a more reliable server and a new domain name. For now certain things
might not work properly until they are fixed or changed over to new
code, such as counters and other scripts. The forum works. You can view
old posts, But don't expect to post new ones yet. I do have plans to get
rid of those stupid porno ads. And I hope to implement a new forum.

Regen is a Megadrive/Genesis emulator for Windows.
News:
- Preliminary SVP emulation added. Thanks to notaz and TascoDeluxe. Although now Virtua Racer is playable but the DAC won't run(strange).
- SoundBufferSize option added to ini file. Default value is 7 because that worked best on my PC. If sound is skipping try playing with different values.
- DirectInput support
- 6-button pad, Teamplayer, 4-way play, lightgun, sega mouse, J-Cart support (all preliminary)
- Sonic 3D bonus stage fixed(got broken in previous version)
- Captain planet screen fixed
- Further FM emulator improvements. Sound should be a bit more accurate. For an example see Sonic 3 Chaos emerald stages as he picks the balls. It sounds more close to Kega now than previously.
- FM timers fixed in FM emulator. This fixes sound in some games. Thanks to Eke.
- Single line glitches in many games fixed (Road rash 1, 2 etc ...)
- Mouse capture/release using F12. This is used for Menacer Lightgun and Sega Mouse.
- Improved syncronization between 68k and Z80. Many more games now work (Super kick off etc...).
- Drag and drop file support.
- Added joypad support. Since I don't have any gamepads I can not tell if it will work. It is just based on estimation.
- Fixed Z80 interrupt timing(again). This fixes slow or missing music from some games.
