Rayman emulation

The walkthrough was in an emulator, but I only tried in a real console once. Sadly I also don't feel like spending 50€ for just one game + console.
 
so there's an way of emulate dreamcast rayman on pc :D ? or am i wrong...if there's, can you tell me which emulator you used? i'd love to play rayman 2 dreamcast on pc but i heard rumors about 'dreamcast games cannot be emulated very well'. but in your walktroughs i don't see any problem. that's why i thought you used console
 
Shooot we've still got to put up some info about that version; it is indeed compatible with NullDC, one of the better Dreamcast emulators there is, but I believe there are still issues with making save files. I'll put that on the first post here or something tomorrow.

If I'm telling you that I recorded a R2TGE walkthrough in a Dreamcast emulator (NullDC) then of course it is playable in a PC!

The walkthrough I did has got some graphical glitches and music glitches by the way.

Oops :oops2: , i did'nt notice. Sorry. Soo, NullDC, can show me good graphics? or PC version have better ones?
 
If the emulator was more developed, I believe it could pass by far the PC version. It was orgasmic the 30 minutes I've played R2TGE in a real Dreamcast once.
 
I'll check later, alongside with gambys. other than graphycal inssues or music inssues, is there more? or not? once I tried n64 version and when I launched fist they appear inside a 'square', so as lums. nulldc doesn't make things like those rigth? only a few?
 
I'm trying to run GBA roms on my 3DS without using a flashcard, so I 've done tinkering with the SD card. So far it hasn't worked, but I saw on a website that I might convert the rom files into DSiware files to run the games, but to do so I would need the raw files instead of converted rom dumps that were made to work on an emulator, so I was just wondering if any of you dumped roms and if I would be possible to dump the files from the cartridge on to the computer unedited and be able to upload them someplace. If you can, try to dump some of the GBA Rayman titles (preferbally Rayman 10th Anniversary).
 
Why is the gba emulator listed as "virtualboy" here, I though it was "visualboy advance"
 
Haha shit, how could I mistake Visualboy for that literally sickening trash. I'll go fix that.

Nobody here owns a rom dumper, if we did there might have been a ROM of Rayman IV [aka the bootleg] by now, sorry.
 
I was wondering I'm using ePSXe and I'm trying to run Rayman 1, but the ISO I downloaded of it consists of twenty something BIN files and a CUE file. Is there any way to compress them all into one big BIN or ISO file?
 
I'm here to tell you in case you are interested, there is the version 1.0 of PCSX2 available for download now. I tested it with RR, but there aren't changes in the parts that lag a little.
 
Wait a second.

I am extremely dumb, sorry. I was considering of emulating Rayman 2 TGE on Dreamcast or Revolution on PS2, but I'm very new to this emulation stuff. So basically, you download an emulator and it emulates the disc you've put in the PC so you can play the game, but what about the controller?

You can "map" a joypad or your keyboard to the keys found on the controller, for example, if I were playing Revolution on the emulator, I could map the A key to the X button, therefore, by pressing A I get the same effect I would get by pressing X on a PS2 controller, namely to jump.
 
I just downloaded and installed PSCX2 (the PS2 emulator) so I could play Rayman Revolution on my computer. I managed to get the game running, but it's really slow... it runs at 30 fps instead of 60. And in this case, 30 fps means EVERYTHING (including stuff like sound) is slowed down by 50% - it's not just laggy, but really slow.

I experimented with the configuration options and the only way I could reach 60 fps was using 2 extra graphics threads in software mode + skipping 2 frames for every 1 frame drawn.

The problem with that setup is that skipping 2/3 of the framedraws produces massive glitches. Text on screen often partially disappears (making it impossible to read some menus and dialogs), characters and other objects sometimes flash in and out of existence, and large landscape features (such as trees or rivers) might disappear from certain camera angles, and can be viewed through solid walls from other angles.

I know that the PS2 wasn't made with skipping frames in mind, so I wanted to ask if any of you guys had some tips on how to configure the emulator to increase the speed? I won't be upset by low quality graphics, I just wan't the game to be playable. I read the configuration guide and I've also tried the preset settings, but none of them gave me the necessary increase in speed. The problem seems to lie in the graphics - I don't think my laptop can render them fast enough.
 
I believe running Rayman Revolution on PCSX2 really does depend on how powerful your computer is; on my Dell laptop it can just about run the game in about 50-60fps with basic configuration, not really the most powerful of them all really and this is one with a bloody i5 chip. :S
 
Unfortunately even with the recent 1.0 version of PCSX2, the FPS lagging in certain areas is an issue of the emulator itself, and not from your computer.

I'm telling this because I did a lot of tests to the emulator on my computer and the result didn't change a lot.
 
Ah, ok. Then I'll just have to hope they make the emulator less laggy in the future, so I don't have to do framedraw skips that mess up the graphics. :sad:
 
Does anybody in here volunteers to upload a downloadable link for the Rayman Revolution (PAL) iso?

I can try to upload myself the pack with the emulator like I did with the Jaguar.
