This was posted by Garrofi, one of Chankast's authors, at Emutalk. They've been making good progress and the XBOX port should also be coming soon. This is certainly welcome news since last update was in July and it is also very exciting since it will be coming to XBOX and they will release the source and binaries. Props to Team Chanka for their continued efforts.

About our missing in action. Chankast has been a very stressful project, it needed a lot of time to get it working. We did an incredible work to get the first release working in only 3 months, it was a full time work. After the 0.25 release I didn't feel like doing chankast again so I took a long break, but we have been improving a lot of things in that time.

 

The emu is faster and need less memory to work, an early xbox version is working, it's great to see shenmue 1 on xbox , the sound is better,...

 

About the future, we are thinking about releasing the source code and a binary with the latest changes.

This was released a few days ago, below is a quote from the official homepage about what happened and is happening with SNESGT.

As I described in my site, my HDD crashed several months ago.

Some people worried that the development may be discontinued.

However,the source code of the SNESGT was salvaged, which allows

me to continue the development.
