PCEjin is considered depreated and it is preferred to use Bizhawk For these platforms. PCEjin is an emulator for windows that uses the accurate PCE emulation core and gives it a native Win32 interface and features. Like mednafen it uses the .mc2 file format. Both PCEjin and Mednafen are sync compatible. PCEjin supports all variants of PC Engine/TurboGrafx 16: TurboGrafx / PC Engine / SuperGrafx / CD-ROM² / SUPER CD-ROM² / Arcade Card CD-ROM The src is maintained via github

it crashed once on my while doing Rondo of Blood 100% (using savestates). But that was it. I can't fix a bug I can't recreate.

it seems it only happens (or at least happens much more frequently) on the US version of neutopia I have (its [o1][h1] I don't know why a bad dump would cause crashes but that could have something to do with it). so this isn't as serious a problem as I had thought.

Of course a bad dump could cause crashes! A bad dump means the rom is ...well...bad in some way which can easily tell the core to do something it shouldn't. Another good reason the rules say it must be on a good dump :)

I think I've found a bug in PCEjin with Galaga (88 and 90). When the game loads PCEjin notes that it can't load the CD, and when you start the game you cannot move the ship. It is frozen and shoots at a slow rate, though it will accept button II input to make the ship shoot faster. I tested the ROMs in Ootake and it doesn't exhibit this problem, so I'm inclined to think the problem is PCEjin and not the ROM. Edit: SVN194 is the particular release.

Anyway to implement some of the commented out lua functions? Gui.drawpixel in particular. Quite a few are missing but seem to have the framework in the source but commented out. Also, functions like joypad.set() don't seem to work properly. I'm using: Joypad.set(1,{"II"}) and it isn't pressing the button.
I think.....therefore I am not Barry Burton
