This is the first release of the Cxbx-Reloaded wip version compiled (thanks to the great work of axylol and all those who are following the project). 

All the resources are public and open-source so available for anyone who wants to try their hand at Chihiro emulation.

 

Given the difficulties in compiling this version and the many debugging errors that can result from the compiler (if not configured properly), I have created two end-user versions: Release & Debug.

 

Release version should run with better fps, while the Debug should fix any crash and memory allocation issues. 

Finally, I remind you that this version is wip and constantly updated, so expect any compatibility issues gpu/cpu/memory/OS and so on based on your hardware.

 

Now have fun trying out some Chihiro games and go for a run with Wmmt2.

 

Service menu can be activated by pressing the F1 and F2 keys to move. Each game has its own game menu and calibration is recommended for all racing games for joypad & keyboard.

note : fixed Debug

 

Hot Damn, this totally passed me by when it was first posted. That's so cool that people are still working on getting the Chihiro games working. Really awesome to see HOTD3, Ghost Squad and Ollie King all booting up now (and OutRun 2 Beta working again).

 

Edited: And a little finagling later WMMT2 as well! Thanks @hippopippo

Hello everyone, nice to meet you. This is my first post.

After seeing posts on the forum, I tried to launch CXBX-R and WMMT1-2 myself.

However, as shown in the attached image, "Error 14" appears, and the loading does not progress. (both jpn and exp)

Has anyone else experienced the same issue? It's truly puzzling...

Regards.

[hippopippo]

use cxbx build posted above April 1

Molte grazie @hippopippo !! 
I used the new build and it started without any issues.

I have the Wangan games running in the cxbx-wangan build (thanks hippopippo)

 

According to him, these versions are supported:

 

- Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 1 (307 Ver.A Exp)

- Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 1 (307 Ver.A Jap)

- Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 2 (322 Ver.B Exp)

- Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 2 (322 Ver.A Jap)

 

I'm missing the second one "Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune 1 (307 Ver.A Jap)"
Does somebody has it and can share a link?
Thanks in advance

PS: It seems a new build for gun games with rawinput is coming. This would be great
      Is there a version around to play the rest of the games (the "normal" ones) or we need to wait for more special builds?

Thanks in advance

Does mt2 lags?

My lags every 0.5 secs

[hippopippo]

With Intel processor you can manage lag setting cpu affinity in this way :

Thanks, I'll try it

 

Can I keep that setting, or I need to do it every time I run cxbx?

Like this? I tried it with CPU 0 and CPU 1 but it's still doing the same O_o

[ishirakurei]

I got it working now, finally won't lag.

 

Instead of changing the cpu affinity of cxbx.exe

 

Change the cxbxr-ldr.exe to 2 cores, and the game will lag really bad, once that's done change it back to full core and it will work fine.

 

cxbxr-ldr.exe will only appear once the game is loaded.

 

[hippopippo]

regarding cpu affinity I meant all 'cxbx' processes

[Nodoyuna]

I can't get the test mode changes to be saved. In both Export versions (WMMT1 and 2) I have to change the steering engine to OFF and calibrate controls often
I've checked and the files are not in read-only, so I don't know what can be the problem

I have the same problem and I couldn't find a solution

[fedeuy]

Well, i give up, guess ill have to wait for more progress on this, was booting with no issues, i launched YACard emu, and bam! it never booted again, black screen after the Chihiro logo...

Update: now i can boot, but no buttons work in test mode, how do i configure the controls for this?

I guess you need to back up the EEPROM every time you switch between 1 and 2.

I just keep separate emulator folders for each game.  less hassle IMO

I think I'm going to try this way. Thanks for the suggestion

 

Any idea for making the games to run fullscreen?

Thanks in advance

[ktoplay]

I cannot access the game's test menu. When I press F1 in WMMT 1, I'm taken to the System Test Menu, where I cannot disable the necessary settings. If I wait for a while, an error related to a steering wheel malfunction appears.

 

WMMT 2 simply doesn't work. When I launch the file after the Chihiro logo, the game crashes and displays an xbe launch error.

 

P.S. I was able to understand what the problem was, I needed to leave the xbe files in folder A, but copy them separately.

Ok boys & girls, today we are giving a twist to the Chihiro Sega emulation scene !

As already mentioned a few months ago and after many tests carried out together with my friend Argonlefou, the time has come to release the Chihiro DS v1.0 (Demulshooter) arcade build for full support of the following games :

 

- GHOST SQUAD

- THE HOUSE OF THE DEAD 3

- VIRTUA COP 3

 

The package is pre-configured to be played with the Demulshooter, so just download it from the link and unzip it in the main folder of the Cxbx emulator.

In addition you will find 3 launchers for the respective games to start everything with a simple click.

I refer you to the reading and the guide for configuring the Demulshooter in the wiki of the distribution site.

 

- Use this build exclusively for these games.

- Depending on your CPU the emulator takes a few seconds to start the game (HOTD3 even 30-50secs).

- Always configure the GUI to handle mouse/gun input.

- Enjoy!

Thank you Hippopippo, Argonlefou, and everybody else working on this emulation. The demulshooter games work great and was easy to setup by basic extraction and double-clicking each game exe. That was a good idea to release it that way. 

[Yusuf-5454]

hippopippo Thank you very much, will there be an emulator improvement for other games?

[juice]

thanks guys, wow

[MFT_Man]

I be surprised if in the future they include the Chihiro emulator in Teknoparrot, as happened with Dolphin Triforce and Play!

I hope that with these additions to Teknoparrot it is not an excuse to put Teknoparrot as fully paid or fully subscription

is it already not free for all. More than anything else is the conflict of interest that is created. i'm talking about ghost squad evolution.

Right. On their Twitter account, it states "freemium arcade emulator," which is a description commonly used for a free-to-play (F2P) mobile game. 

[jcstahl1]

any of these other emulators they add will be free to use just as they are standalone.  they're all open source and adding any of them to the subscription requirement would violate the various open source licenses.  they're just concentrating on improving the arcade parts of those emulators and any changes or improvements will probably never be pushed to the main line emulators
