I have been in touch with the SATURNCAST creator and had an interview with him and found out a few things which is been on people minds!
The Interview is as follows:
| remembermyname14 | its SATURNCAST |
| Introlux | how you doing? |
remembermyname14 |
im cool |
| Introlux | so what got you started in emulation? :) |
| remembermyname14 | well, there were a few things, one was how I always got pissed when I couldn't play, o lets say Playstation on Saturn......now I wanna play Saturn on Dreamcast ;) |
| Introlux | cool, how long have you been working on this project? |
| remembermyname14 | .........for about 8 or 9 months |
| Introlux | how many people are working on your project? |
| remembermyname14 | 4 |
Introlux |
I heard you got your work wiped out by some idiots, how much of it do you have backed up? |
| remembermyname14 | Right now I am making sure I have everything backed up.......but before I had about half backed up......witch means about half my work is gone :( |
Introlux |
sorry to hear that m8, what games did you have emulated up and running for the saturncast? |
| remembermyname14 | well, saturncast is getting there, but now, it can show the startup screen and show a little video before Dreamcast shuts it off.......I would say a few games I have are 8 percent compatible with DC, Control keeps being a big factor in getting Saturncast up |
Introlux |
that's good not even Sega couldn't do that for that respect. there were rumors that you had Nights running at near enough full speed. what have you got to say about that? |
| remembermyname14 | rumors suck,lol,,,,,nights did get up more than the others, but not enough to play, it was like 41 percent DC compatible, sound was clunky and so was video at that time |
Introlux |
oh, well how do you plan to interpret the Saturn games on to the Dreamcast, as not even a Pentium 3 800mhz could achieve more than 5f/s? |
| remembermyname14 | Dreamcast and Saturn are very similar......the both run on SH processors, just DC has a more updated one,,,,,,,,sound systems are similar, cept that Saturn's is crapply designed......running Saturn on a dc with the same series of processors, makes it easier, running Saturn on a computer=different processor which then means hard to develop. |
Introlux:
|
oh I guess that makes sense if you think about it, at the moment you say it shows the start up screen and shows a little video screen, you stated a few games are about 8% compatible, which games would they be? |
| remembermyname14 | Virtua Fighter 2 has made that mark, Nights did too but now its kinda crappy, Worms made it, and some other jap pinball game........lol |
Introlux |
how well does Virtua fighter 2 or Nights run? |
| remembermyname14 | VF2, is the first game to actually have some control,,,,,,like the start button works, woohoo, lol........it shows the startup screen and the goes to the select screen and slows down until DC then turns it off........same with Nights, but nights cant play sound as good |
Introlux |
when do you think you will be releasing your first exclusive prototype and who will be the lucky person apart from your self to try it out? |
| remembermyname14 | I dont know yet, sorry,,,,,,,,,,my best friend:( |
Introlux |
well when you have your first prototype, not the one that you will post on your website for commercial downloading, could I have a copy to test and print on my new web site? ;) |
| remembermyname14 | we will see |
Introlux: |
is there any thing you would like to ask me before we conclude? |
| remembermyname14 | umm........whats ur website again? |
| Introlux | ok my website will be up in a few days but to get to it there will be a link on my brothers website, it will be called Dreamemucast. check it out at introlux.vt9.co.uk. |
