Yeah, once you've bought something with your hard-earned money (or gift money or whatever) you have the right to do whatever you want with it. That something is yours after all.

On second thought, make that an average of 15+ hours on normal weekends for me. "Normal" being that I don't have to leave the house for any reason.

It's just CS2 (codename of sorts for Photoshop 9.0)

Have you set up a controller plugin and at least one VMU for Controller Port B as well?

5-6 total. 7-8 on weekends. My computer is mostly on during the day, even if I'm afk. Internets is Serious Business.

I masturbate. or read or both. Really. Music works too. Classical.

Said games are mostly homebrewn PD games, not commercially licensed games.

I read somewhere that this bugfix release fixes some Direct3D initialization-related issue.

I think he's trying to run the games from the backup CDs, not from ripped images.

Now THAT looks boring.

Hear hear. Congratulations. DragonKeeper fits in here like a glove. or something. OH WAIT

Wow. I really need to start playing it again. I finished Okami not so long ago and it had successfully drained my interest for other games.

When I'm bored, I usually pick something fairly random from my VGM collection and let it blast. After that, I start hunting for crappy 80's action movies from the net and try to get some entertainment out of those.

Hmmm in Gamecop's Comp List...says that this game is 100% playable with minor glitches...maybe he knows the settings. I also don't think that whoever submitted SoA to GameCop's list finished the game on nullDC either (that includes GameCop himself). Then again, can't say if the glitch I had was just bad luck. There are glitches in the game, but most of them are hardly noticeable. Well, one annoying bug is that when you select skills or magic during battle, you can't see the texts, making selecting specific stuff kinda difficult. Still, the game runs and is playable, so there's something wrong on your end.

I got the game to work ... But after you've flown your airship back to town town, the game locked up so bad that I had to do a hard reset on my computer.

Don't expect too much from commercial games either. Although a number of games work, they run so slowly that you won't get much out of them.

Dolphin's homebrew support is dodgy. Don't expect too much from it.

Well, it was bound to happen one day that an OEM vendor would get out of the proverbial corner and revolt. I'm glad Dell did what it did.

In many emulated N64 games, cheats can cause wise and undesired side effects. There isn't much you can do about that except to play without cheats. Cheats can destroy your game for good.

What are you saying? The entire Cho Aniki "series" is most excellent.

Do you have Sync Audio enabled in the Aica plugin? Also, if you are using Chankast's audio plugin, the game will be too fast since the plugin doesn't have any settings to sync the audio to the video (happens in most games but some are unaffected). The garbage graphics problem is also present in other games as well, and I think it has to do with certain graphical effects that he Dreamcast's CPU puts out. No, there's no way of fixing it, at least I haven't found a way. Then again, using Chankast's video plugin might help. Or it might not. Your graphics card should be adequate enough for DC emulation.

I'm assuming (although one should never assume anything) that you are using the N-rage input plugin. Although I can't really help with the screenshots and whatnot, since I haven't played Operation Winback in Project64, you could download the mouse+keyboard profile from N-rage homepage and then edit it to match your preferred button layout.

There's a good chance that the CD image you have is not selfboot. Either find yourself an image that is selfboot or hack your existing image to make it selfboot.

Make that a proper controller plugin with proper analog axis mapping. The big tags require analog input.

Same here. It's a thoroughly american thing, so meh.
