BigPEmu - Jaguar emulator
 

Just stumbled over this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hg563-sR5ik

A new Jaguar emulator that seems to work very well. You can grab it for free here: https://www.richwhitehouse.com/jaguar/index.php

That AvP footage is very promising. Will try it out over the weekend and see if it holds up.

nice, thnx! the emulator included in ATARI 50: THE ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION runs at least Tempest 2000 100% flawless (the only game I'm interested in...). they also wrote a new Jaguar emulator from scratch. I will test BigPEmu ASAP.

It's a great emulator. Everthing what i've tested worked fine. Smooth, no slowdowns. The coder is terminally ill and convinced Digital Eclipse to make it free for the masses. The same emu they've used for the Atari 50 Collection. Very sad story, but i guess it's a good legacy for him. :)

What a nice surprise.

The Retroarch shader converter is a nice bonus, crt-guest-advanced converts without a hitch. :)

I'm too dumb. Can you tell me exactly (which folders/files) how you converted the guest-advanced shader? :D

I watched one video in which the host was much more excited by the prospect of playing Atari ST game hacks through it, so very quickly switched to showcasing those. Either way, it's a fantastic development in an underdeveloped niche of retrogaming emulation.

I made a quick video of 20 games...

Thank you :great Now to wait for YT to render it in at least 1080p ;)

thanks for sharing :great

let me try Super Burnout... :spin

Copy the folder from Retroarch into folder with the tool.


Then run A new dstack file and folder is created.


crt-guest-advanced
crt-guest-advanced.dstack

Copy newly created folder and dstack file to Profit. :D

Ah, forgot the "-subdir" bit. Looks great now, much better then Hyllian imo. :D

I couldn't get the Atari ST Ports to Jaguar working under emulation.. Only game that worked fine was Solomon's Key & R-Type was slow

I would say the Jaguar is one of my favorite consoles strictly just because of the memories I have playing it with my cousin who had one. Getting one myself this year was a highlight for a me. A new emulator for it makes me extremely happy to see.

I hadn't previously looked too deeply into the Jaguar's library of games. Now I have, what strikes me first is that the majority of them could easily be ported to 16-bit systems or are themselves ports from 16-bit systems. It's a similar scenario to our supposed step up to the CD32 where most titles were no more advanced than could already be run on current Amiga models. No wonder the system failed to take off. I won't get into the 32-bit + 32-bit = 64-bit argument.

Yep. Far too many 68k ports with no improvements and far too little games that stood out. Plus the exclusive titles for the most part sucked. Cybermorph and Iron Soldier really were counter-arguments to getting a Jaguar ;)

Maybe it was good at the time.. but man alive!! those games look terrible... I was expecting more from the Jaguar.

We all did :D Yeah, seeing and playing Cybermorph felt like 'Why the hell did I spend money for this?'.

I will try it later, I am curious because I did not find any stable Jaguar emulator so far, Project Tempest was good for only one game.

pity that also this one not read jaguar iso :(

Not yet, but you can help:
