Any interest in a new 3do emu?

Oh yes, there were Windows and Playstation ports of Return Fire, and an unreleased Saturn version. But as far as I know, none of these also included the whole Maps O' Death expansion. There's also the fact that these disks wouldn't run without a save file from the original game present on the 3DO, which is crap for players but is (to me) a valuable artifact of the period from a software programming and marketing perspective.

 

CEL format

Not to get everyone's hopes up, but I sure was excited at 2:30 in the morning when I identified the flat CEL files in some of the 3DO iso's. Here's my first display of plainly visible progress.

Yes, well, by the icon you can see that this particular junky project was written in VB6, but it was my quickest way to scrap together a quick canvas once I wanted to check on it. Plus, I realize that the colors aren't right. I'd be interested to see if anybody else is enough of a 3DO junkie to be able to guess this game.

Or just use the Insert image button

 

This doesn't seem to work for me....

 

hmm some years ago i would have said talk to freedo but i had a too bad experience with him but you could try your luck

i dont think the 3do m2 documentry did mention anything on the emulation of the old 3do but i havent checked them out in a long while and i would guess they dont go that much deep into the hardware anyways

 

You had a bad experience with the FreeDO guys? Do you mind if I ask what it was?

By the way, I don't personally intend to be looking into support of M2. However, this project is open source, so I guess it's not completely out of the question. As always, I just like to clarify about the project to avoid any false promises.

 

there is or at least was only one guy freedo himself...
the matter got around the exchange of some software where in the end he got something i got nothing which did let me loose much trust in him and i heard from others that they had the same thing happen to them

on the m2 matter no problem was clear enough that you intented only the 3do but the open source thing is looking really promising

 

Sorry to hear that about the FreeDO experience. However, I can't help but to sing their praises for the help they've offered me already! They're certainly the best resource for undocumented information on the hardware.
