Chankast Wip News

I was browsing through DCEmu and came across this thread.
Here is a quote:
You can see interesting things about it and many videos with the actual compilated version (WIP) of Chankast running at 1280x1024 in fullscreen mode !!!!. Unai, member of the Chankast team, told us some secrets and future things to be included in their compilations. For example, the next version will bring us a debug mode !!! and others very very very interesting things like a new window showing the VMU LCD...
You will find this pics and videos in http://www.talfi.net or http://www.talfi.net/e107/forum_viewtopic.php?3.5771.0 (our forum).
And in the link to their forum I found this amongst other cool things:
Warning: This is horribly translated. Please thank FreeTranslations.com for this. Go here for the actual post.
1) Windowx XP, so much in the PC of development (a portatil that brought but that does not leave) as in that of the photo (that is the PC of Ron).
2) The proxima version alpha 0.3 will be this week that comes surely.
3) It of the windows 98 could be possible. Himself it has not been spoken of it but segun comment are reprogramando great splits of the codigo and the objective, care, is to come to rival the dreamcast in a PC to 600 Mhz !!!!!!!
This is what is known:
>> 1280x1024 Fullscreen
>> VMU LCD
>> Debug menu
>> Perhaps Windows 98 compatibility
>> They are trying to get it work on a 600 mhz computer
>> And to save the best for last, the next alpha, v 0.3, will most probably be released this coming week.
This all certainly wonderful news and we are deeply grateful to the Chankast team for their fast and awesome work. Keep up the great work guys!

Xeon Update

Over at NGEmu forums there is a nice update on the the XBOX emulator Xeon by its author, _SF_.
Good news, Xeon is now reaching in-game with Panzer Dragoon Orta. Currently it is still rendering in software mode and going very slowly, but I should be able to add a lot of optimizations in the future.
CREDITS: NGEmu & _SF_
You can visit the thread and see a load of pics of Panzer Dragoon Orta running here. This is some very nice progress in XBOX emulation.

Saturn Emulator For Dreamcast Released!

http://ljsdcdev.sunsite.dk/
Please note right now that this only can load up the bios.
This was announced yesterday:
Project L, unmasked!
Well, I finally got Project L to do something, and as promised, there will be a screenshot (keep reading). However, much has changed since project L's inception, the biggest of which being that this is a port now. Anyway, since I know everyone just wants the screenshot, I'll put it up now...:
For those of you that don't know, that is the language screen of the Sega Saturn BIOS, and yes, that is running on the Dreamcast. Project L is a port of the Linux Saturn Emulator yabause.
Binaries will come sometime soon....
This was announced today:
Yabause-dc Binaries/Source
Okay, here's the source and binary to Project L. From now on, it should be referred to as yabause-dc. Please read the README.DC file for important information.
That's all for now.
This is an awesome start. Imagine playing the rare saturn games on the DC (If you don't own a Saturn + ModChip - or the original game). This is gonna rock!!!
