'rom_dir=' in the ini seams to be ignored, i always get the root folder.


Yes, that's a bug.  It's now fixed.  I'll wait for more reports before putting out another version, though.

You shouldn't have to do that except with games that you've already played in GensXPort.  When you start a game that you have never played before, it will use the currently defined joypad mappings.  The current joypad mappings are whatever you most recently set them to be.  When you play a game you have played before, it loads the last mappings you had defined for it from the HD.  Those mappings then become the "current joypad mappings."

maybe the next step is something like hikaru was working on,
one gui for all of them.
Is there a SMS/Gamegear from xport?

Thats something thats allways excited me.. and all of xports latest emu released would implement very easy... but design quality like hikarus would be hard to rival. Its just the damn animated menus which move, something very profesional about them but i cant put my finger on it. Shame he gave up allready.

got a really annoying problem though.
I set in main configuration the joypad remapping, but it wont be taken in
the games i start. Thus i have to change joypad config for every single game.
The happens with games i have had already started and those were launched
the first time. Bug or my fault ?

I think Xports payback is the intense praise we all give him for his wonderful work. THis thread has been nice too, no Fin flamers. But if you happen to read this XPORT, Dream Cast should be your next attempt. A TRUE chalenge. Whereas Atari and all these other ancient systems may be fun and satisfy the few who want them, a DC emulator would be hard as Fuck to get out there, if even feasible at all.

What ever you choose to release next, Il DL it.

More praise, etc...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but XPort is porting already existing emus to the Xbox. AFA Dreamcast goes, Icarus isn't even released; so I wouldn't hold my breath about a DC emu anytime soon.

As far as Xport...man...what to say? You are awesome.....   beerchug.gif

re: porting already existing emus

There's a little truth to that - but that's mostly not the case.

Stella (Atari 2600), Z26 (Atari 2600), Gnuboy (GB/GBC) , SMSPlus (GG/SMS), HUGO (TG16/PCE), NeoPop (NGPC), DGen (Sega Genesis), Bochs (X86), FMSXBox (MSX), Bliss (Intellivision), WinSTon (Atari ST), StepmaniX (Stepmania), PCSXBox (PSX) were all first in their respective categories.  

The first version of X-NES came before the first version of FCEUltra.  V1 of both of them were about a year ago.  X-Nes was not very compatible, however, which is why I ported FCEUltra.

Hikaru did the first port of Gens, but there were many reports of sound issues and certain CD games would not play - so I ported Gens (GensXPort) to clear up these issues.  Then came Xenesis.  Now there's NeoGenesis which is really just GensXPort with a new name and the new UI that I'm putting on all of my previous work.  

Similar situation with XBoyAdvance.  There were already 3 diff. GBA emulators, but it seemed like every other day I would hear something about "none of the GBA emus do this or that".  So I decided to do a port VBA also.  Mine is the only one to play Tactics Ogre and Wario Ware's reflect game (among other things.)

Generally, my rule of thumb is to *not* port something that has already been done unless the only existing ports are lacking in some regard *and* development on them seems to have stopped.  

So in a nutshell - no - I am not just doing what's already been done.  Most of my work represents the origins of those various systems being emulated on the XBox.
