Eight Queens (16-01-2015) (Sega 32x misc)

Eight Queens by Sebastian Mihai is an implementation of the Eight Queens Problem on Sega’s unfortunate add-on to the Genesis, the 32x. Towards the end of the Genesis era, Sega’s plan was for the 32x to tide Genesis players over, until the release of the next-gen system, the Sega Saturn. It seems that Sega preferred planet code-names for their systems, as the internal name for the 32x was Project Mars.

This Sega 32x homebrew finds all solutions, whereby no two chess queens threaten each other (as in, share a row, column, or diagonal), on a standard chess board of eight by eight squares.

shymmer (Sega 32x Chipdisk)

shymmer is a chipdisk for Sega 32x. Most of the songs were taken from the STSound YM collection; the rest being Spectrum tunes were converted by mic from .ay to .ym.

Chilly Willy ported xRick to the Sega 32x!

PDRoms Coding Competition v4.01 (Sega 32x misc)

It’s reality again, here comes PDROMS CODING COMPETITION v4.01 – Retro Coding Fun for Console and Handhelds!


Coding on “closed” handhelds or consoles must not be a privilege; dozens of free development kits proof the opposite. The steadily growing “homebrew scene” produces unlicensed software for devices not meant to be open for everyone.

PDRoms has always been in the homebrew scene to support the creation of new homebrew software, support programmers and artists. To show our love to the homebrew scene once again, here comes the ninth PDRoms Coding Competition.

Here is the brief data:

Wolfenstein 3D 32x (Beta 3) (Sega 32x Engine Port)

JLF65 updated his engine port, which can be used to play Wolfenstein 3D.

Because Wolfenstein 3D is showing swastika’s during ingame, we can not provide any links as it would be against german law. In particular it would be against paragraph 86 StGB “Verbreiten von Propagandamitteln verfassungswidriger Organisationen”. – It somehow means, spreading of prohibited signs/organisations.

Allthough this is just an engine port of Wolfenstein 3D, the game itself is still indexed.

Changes:

Okay, here’s beta 3. This is a pretty major update, adding FM sound effects and Load/Save game ability. You only get one save. The Load/Save menu still shows ten, but they all just do the same thing. There’s only room in the SRAM for one save game. Since there’s no keyboard and I don’t want to make the effort to add an on-screen keyboard, the save tag is set to the map name automatically. That way you can at least tell what level you saved on. START + X is now Quick Load, and START + Y is Quick Save. For three button controllers, just use the menu to load/save.

The FM sound effects are synthesized before compiling using the MAME YM3812 OPL emulation. That is the way FM sound effects are played in most ports of Wolf3D, they just do it on the fly. There is a bug in the OPL emulation. Have you seen reports on the PSP version of Wolf3D that certain FM sound effects are missing? They’re not missing, just very VERY quiet due to a bug in the OPL emulation. I scale certain sounds while they’re being generated so that they are audible in Wolf32X. The volume is probably wrong, but I think they sound like they should. I’ll be looking into this more.

Next up, music!

Thanks to DCEMU for the news.

Shuboy (22-02-2009) (GB emu for Sega 32x)

Shuboy is a Gameboy emulator, which is not based upon any released emulators out there.

For now there is no way to inject ROM’s into a .32x, so you have to assemble and link yourself at the moment.

Thanks to the author mic himself for the news!
