Hi,
I'm looking for Sega Model 2 open-source emulator for linux. I know only about Nebula's Model2 emulator which is for windows only (and closed source), http://nebula.emulatronia.com/descargas.php. _________________ You are not using computers if you are not using Gentoo UNIX. |

bigbanana69,
Get to know mame. Its not in the portage tree any more but there are several overlays.
Google says it supports the Sega Model 2. _________________ Regards,

Mame is an emulator which "supports" a lot of machines and games/roms. It's "massive and messy", but also a lot of the roms and machines don't work properly on Mame if not even not working at all. I prefer the separate emulators or the ones with just few machines/consoles support, at least for not being so messy (ex. having too many games/roms like mame so I couldn't handle with it). Usually they (the separate emulators) work excellent.
Another emulator, which is probably even heavier than Mame, is Retroarch. Retroarch is supposed to have support for even more games/roms and machines/consoles than Mame. I haven't tested it how it works, but at least it's too complex and very heavy. _________________ You are not using computers if you are not using Gentoo UNIX.

With a google search mame seems the only emulator that run sega model 2 games, alternatively you can try to run nebula with wine _________________ Questions are guaranteed in life; Answers aren't. |

I had wrote an e-mail to Nebula to ask him to release a source code of his Model 2 emulator for linux. _________________ You are not using computers if you are not using Gentoo UNIX. |
