Flycast Dojo is a fork of Flycast, a multi-platform Sega Dreamcast, Naomi and Atomiswave emulator derived from Reicast, with a focus on netplay features and replay. We intend to keep Flycast Dojo updated with the latest downstream changes made to the parent project.

Flycast Dojo can be retrieved from GitHub, or as a part of the Fightcade matchmaking service. However you obtain it, you will always have the option to use it standalone for P2P games using Match Codes over an internet matchmaking server, through a direct IP connection, or a virtual LAN like ZeroTier or Radmin.

For quick start guides, frequently asked questions, online replays, and community links where you can find people to play against, head to the Flycast Dojo site.

Making a stable release before I merge the SD card PR

Yes, it’s time for another release: MAME 0.258! It’s been another month of exciting Apple updates. Several low-cost Macintosh computers with 68040 CPUs are now supported, and there are fixes for some issues with sound playback. For earlier Macintosh computers, there are two new floppy disk software lists: one for original dumps and one containing low-impact cracks. Support for early CD-ROM drives has been improved, allowing early multimedia software for the Apple II and Macintosh to run. There are also a few Apple III fixes in there.

Moving on to other computers, Silicon Graphics workstation support is still making progress. This month, the Personal IRIS 4D family have been promoted to working. The ZX Spectrum family has been further filled out with another enhanced clone from Scorpion, Ltd. Work is continuing on various PC video and sound cards, allowing software that uses more of their advanced features to run. This month, you may notice better sampled sound playback...

Qt-based Nintendo Entertainment System emulator and NSF/NSFe Music Player

• Added support to Wayland.
• Added support for "Fullscreen in window" with Wayland (the only type of fullscreen supported for now).
• Added iNES/NES 2.0 header editor.
• Added support for "Family Basic Keyboard" and "Subor Keyboard".
  • It's possible to capture and release keyboard input with the shortcut "Scrollock" and open and
    close a virtual keyboard with "CTRL+X".
  • Implemented the "Paste" function. It's possible to paste the text by dragging it in the main
    window of the emulator or copying it and then press the right mouse button and selecting "Paste".
    The text will be inserted through the simulation of the pressure of the keys and it will always
    be possible to interrupt the insertion by pressing the ESC key. During the paste, the Fast Forwarding
    will be active to reduce the waiting time.
  • Added support for the tape data recorder. Added a "Tape" submenu in the "NES"...

A cross-platform NES emulator. Has a native frontend built using SDL2 as well as a web frontend that compiles to WASM and runs in the browser.

• Significant performance improvement / reduced CPU usage due to a rewrite of the 6502 CPU emulation code
• Fixed a PPU bug where the PPU would sometimes render the wrong backdrop color when rendering was left disabled at the start of a frame; this caused occasional top-of-screen flickering in Battletoads, which leaves rendering disabled for the first ~7 visible scanlines of every frame
• Fixed a bug that caused PAL audio sync to time to ~49.9 FPS instead of 50 FPS
• Added an option to have audio sync time to native NES speed (~60.1 FPS NTSC / ~50.007 FPS PAL) instead of aiming for exactly 60 FPS NTSC / 50 FPS PAL
  • Note this will cause severe audio skipping if combined with VSync on a display with 60Hz refresh rate
