Eke's latest Genesis Plus GX core would be much greater stuff. Unfortunately it's not as simple as plopping it in there.

You can download version "1.0 Alpha" from the below link, do note it is an out dated version that is likely not supported by the author of the project.

Thanks! the wait for the definitive MD player seems to be a long one.

At 00:42 in Donkey Kong Country - Fear Factory, you can tell it is an old version because the note isn't reproduced accurately.

Are you suggesting MGME 1.5 beta fixes that cracked note? It's probably correct. Latest foo_gep (1.88) is the same.


About that foo_gep. Kode54 presumably updated the MAME YM2612 to the latest official MAME. Although an improvement, it's still not as good as Genesis Plus GX's version.

Example problems with straight MAME in foo_gep:
* Zombies Ate My Neighbors is simply messed up
* Castlevania Bloodlines "All Clear" track clips
* Sonic the Hedgehog 2 "Winged Fortress" wrong notes at beginning
* Streets of Rage "The Streets of Rage" oscillating pitches

Problem of GME:
* No DAC panning

None of these are VGM file issues (aka they are perfect in Fusion).

I sound like a broken record, but I have faith that someday we'll have accurate VGM playback.

So can we use Genesis Plus GX's core to make 'quick & dirty' wave dumps using any apps out there? Wouldn't mind lossy encodes of VGMs as long as the wave rips are sufficiently accurate.

You should stick to Fusion. Eke does have a rough SDL Genesis Plus GX port, but it hasn't been updated in a while. VGM ROM builder:

VGM_PLAY v2.00+

Does anyone here have the 1.5 beta of MGME?

I've updated foo_gep again, this time against latest revision of ym2612.c from Genesis Plus repository.


> Zombies Ate My Neighbors is simply messed up

Sounds fine to me. Any specific examples?


> Castlevania Bloodlines "All Clear" track clips

Plays loudly here, but doesn't distort audibly.


> Sonic the Hedgehog 2 "Winged Fortress" wrong notes at beginning

Technically, it's one wrong note. Oh, and it's not my fault. Bad rip/trimming job. Try my rip instead.


> Streets of Rage "The Streets of Rage" oscillating pitches

Again, not sure what's wrong here. Maybe I fixed it?


> No DAC panning

Huh, I didn't know the DAC supported panning. Maybe you should e-mail blargg about it?
