You...Hey, thanks for the info on SNES emulators. You're correct, I've been using ZSNES exactly because it was the best in the early days and sort of got stuck with it. I do have SNES9x also, but don't find it quite as comfortable to use - maybe I should give it another go. I've also been thinking of buying an SD2SNES/Everdrive just to get the homebrews and some non-PAL games working on my real SNES, but that doesn't solve all problems, really...<br /><br />Anyway, thanks for the kind comments, and again for the very much needed info! =)FRGCB Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16754639927704915007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514691251207559863.post-62414956401628914882017-04-24T21:58:37.406+03:002017-04-24T21:58:37.406+03:00Hey man! Great article, interesting looking game, ...Hey man! Great article, interesting looking game, I'll have to check it out. In fact, I just discovered your blog and have rabidly been reading through all your old entries filling out some holes in my various (emulated) collections, many of which I hadn't heard much of, so here's a general thanks for all the work you've done!<br /><br />Don't know if you've looked into the SNES issues you were running into here any further, but the problem could be that you were using ZSNES. Back in the earlier days of emulation it was undoubtedly the best SNES emulator, though it's been superceded by other far more accurate emulators in more recent time, especially with all the technological improvement in the last 10 years and the ubiquity of more powerful computers... see here:<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZSNES<br /><br />http://www.emulator-zone.com/doc.php/snes/zsnes.HTML<br /><br />Furthermore, many official SNES games are known to have problems under ZSNES - bugs most commonly manifest in graphics issues, particularly with layer translucency. Other games, like Super Mario RPG, are uncompletable with ZSNES due to locking up at various possible points in the story. More examples and screenshots here:<br /><br />http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/ZSNES<br /><br />I've used ZSNES for years, as I assume you maybe have too! I've known of some of these issues for some time (having had a real SNES when I was a kid), but only recently, having gotten into emulation again, have I found out about some of the alternatives. I switched to Snes9x recently and have been pretty happy so far, though I admit my experience isn't extensive as of yet, due to work and real life, haha!<br /><br />So yeah just thought I'd let you know, (if you didn't know already), as it popped into my head as a possible solution to the graphic issues you were having with the SNES version here, as I was reading through this entry.<br /><br />Anyway keep rockin', your blog is great stuff!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514691251207559863.post-79387300654776685522016-09-25T18:19:05.109+03:002016-09-25T18:19:05.109+03:00Cool, those I didn't know about!

I was aware of it already, but I just don't have much of time writing actual comparison articles as it is, so it'll take a while before I have the chance to update the rest of the articles I need to update, this being one of them. It's good to see one of the more recent games having so much attention, though. =)FRGCB Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16754639927704915007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514691251207559863.post-77510647240978929252016-09-23T10:46:38.625+03:002016-09-23T10:46:38.625+03:00There's an Uwol MSX2 version released recently...There's an Uwol MSX2 version released recently.
