Wishlist?

Chankast rocks ^^
I think it would be a good idea if we had a wishlist thread instead of having lots of different threads of suggestions, so that way the forum is cleaner and tidy :p


Now that I'm on it:
I think it would be a good idea, in the case that someday Chankast read cd images, that ISO+MP3 images were supported (just like GENS and the SegaCD games ^^).
I prefer to keep my games stored in my computer, so the game loads a lot faster, but the audio tracks are huge and my hd space is small... :(

Johann DC games very rarely actually used RedBook Audio (what you refer too as CD tracks). More often than not they were compressed WAV OR MPG files. This would make it a lot harder to find and recompress them too MP3. In the case of GENS, SEGA CD's *always* used RedBook audio becase at the time they were made it was seen as the "latest and greatest". They were also conveniently located in the second session on the CD because that was the standard of the day for "multimedia" applications and games. Infact in the early to mid 90s Multimedia generally just meant "includes RedBook audio". :)

Cheers,

Well instead I hope that Deamon tools supports RARed or ZIPed images instead of your ISO + MP3 thing

I'm up for redbook support, GGX is ruined without the music.

A speed limiter function would be nice. Hell, this emu's almost playable anyway, put a speed limiter on it, all you have to do is upgrade to tomorrow's hardware and you're set.

Savestates would be appreciated.

I want esc binded so that it shuts off fullscreen, or at least have a method of binding that behavior to a key.

I'd like more accuracy and more speed, but that's just me.

Iso support should be put in too.

I have to say that if the emu could run at full speed on a 2 ghz p4 and had speed limiting, I'd be in heaven though.

Johann good idea! I think the nvidia bug needs to be fixed for sonic adventure 2 and phantasy star online, also i want to have a frame limiter too as playin ikaruga was at 100fps, and to maybe be able to play vms games on an emulated vmu too.

Try the wrappers

Look at HowardC's wrappers.. They are designed to allow emulators to look like mame, so that you can use non-mame emulators in mame specific frontends.

Anyway, he spent a long time getting emulators to quit with a single key stroke. I haven't played with the chankast one yet (my arcade machine is WAY to slow... waiting a few versions of chankast to upgrade the machine...).. But others do a great job....

Please... It's just a suggestion, but a suggestion is a feature request in a special way, isn't it?
And the rules always say "NO feature requests!".
Sorry if I#m wrong but I think this thread should be closed.
(PS: Chankast is great and please ppl, the devs can't make wishes real! Give them time and they will release these things and if 1.0 is released you can add it yourself with the source! So please, not whining or other things.

MasterPHW_DX: We're not telling the devs to do what we're asking, we're simply asking them to suggest our suggestions (if that makes sense!)

In the emulation world, suggestions are usually considered begging and whining. The emulator programmer doesn't want suggestions and "feature" request mainly because they already KNOW what needs to be done people.

The devs are programmers and are fully capable of finding simple bugs and small mistakes in their own software. Suggestions and "feature" request only should be given WHEN and IF the dev asked for the publics opinion for them. Normally there is a alpha/beta testing team for this already.

So to put it BLUNTLY just have patience and wait and see what the next version of Chankast will bring with it! You never know what really kool things could have been added that you guys are "requesting" right now. :D

ah. i admit. Ive made a mistake, the developers are tryin hard anyway to fix the core bugs and adding more compatibility to chankast, so im sorry for the post i made. But im sure that when 0.3 is released these features will be implemented anyway.
