Ibara emulated (read first!)

[PsikyoFan]

No need to worry about the latest games being 'lost' etc.
http://www.lucaelia.com/mame.php

As per Luca:

Important:

* This WIP driver has not been submitted to MAME dev (or anyone else, for that matter).
* It is not for inclusion in MAME for the the foreseeable future.
* It won't be for at least 3 years after Cave stops earning from this hardware platform and games.
* Considering Xbox 360 ports are coming out in 2010, you're not going to see this game emulated before 2016 (probably later).
* Add 1 year for each request I get to release it!

[Kaiser]

That is great to hear actually. Now we are sure they're still gonna work on this and release a complete driver (and some games) after the 3 years after non-profit thing.

[Jockel]

Awesome. But what about SH2?

[kernow]

Awesome. But what about SH2?

What boards use SH2? Do you mean PGM stuff? Thats 68000 based.
People often refer to the cave PGM stuff as 'SH2' for some reason.

[Jockel]

Sry yeah i meant the PGM stuff that's not actually a PGM cart.

[Ed Oscuro]

This here game looks pretty nice. In three years I might even be ready for it! (or dead, you know us high livin' Shmups Forum types)

[Udderdude]

Might as well change the subject to "Ibara emulated, on one guy's PC, and he's not releasing it"

[nZero]

Why does the ending screen indicate that it's the location test version being played? Is the dump from a proper Ibara PCB or did Guru get his hands on something dug out of the dumpster behind Cave's offices?

we'll probably be able to play this in a ps2 emulator long before we see it in Mame

[TodayIsForgotten]

Also note:

* The game runs dog slow anyway (peaks at 5% on my Athlon64 3000).
* There is no sound (unemulated YMZ770C-F chip, also sound ROMs are not dumped).
* No EEPROM/Real Time Clock support (unemulated RTC 9701 chip).
* the SH-3 CPU emulation is very preliminary, hacked on top of the SH-4 core.


so maybe the game can run half speed on newer pcs.

[Leandro]

That's nice, I hope someone steal it from him and release, but what about V-Five, Dogyuun, Batsugun etc sound MCU

[sikraiken]

This thread is funny. Go buy some PCBs, you'll be waiting a lot less time.

[lmagus]

I've been playing it in PS2 emulator for months.

Yeah, you had my hopes up for a sec there. It's ok, though; I have it running well on PCSX2, as well as my PS2's hard drive, so it's all good.

[emphatic]

He he. The PS2 port is funny.

[vgambit]

He he. The PS2 port is funny.

The PS2 port is in my room, and very easy to come by. The PCB is a bit unreasonable for me to buy.

PCB can be had for $200, right now. Not bad considering the overpriced PS2 port.

Blame the janitors. >_>

Despite my huge Cave dork status, I'm far more interested in getting these fully emulated first.

I think the price for IBARA on PS2 is not so bad right now. Check out this good deal on ebay.

Thank God for those that work hard to make emulation happen they are true heroes.
