If you enjoy them it'd be great if you could help me spread the word I've set up a Facebook page, and likes and shares would be very much appreciated.Īs it wasn't possible to do all that much over the holiday period I decided to work on some more classic game remakes. While I've not tested them myself I've been told that the current versions work without issue under Rosetta 2.īy popular demand my games are now available for iPhone and iPad. The short answer to this is yes, but I'm waiting on Apple to deliver a new 15"/16" laptop before I take the proverbial plunge.

On a completely different subject, I've had a number of questions about the status of my emulation projects, and in particular whether I intend to update them for Apple Silicon. Game updates are free of charge for existing customers. Separately I've added background music to Dangerous Maggots, ICBMs Inbound, Meteor Field, Pompom Invaders, Triple Tint, and Vampire Riches. Bright Stones and Burning Turkey are the latest additions to the roster, which now comprises twenty-seven titles in total. I've been continuing to work on my classic game remakes over the last month.
If you have the opportunity to help me promote these titles, I'd really appreciate it as of this writing they're not even close to covering costs, which is a pity given how much time and effort has gone into them. Separately, all of my game remakes now include licensed music. There's not a lot of real world gain in going native unless you habitually run old games at ten or fifteen times actual speed, but it'd be remiss of me not to record the significant performance boost in BSNES in my tests a cloud-hosted Apple Silicon Mac Mini was able to maintain a steady 150fps using the accuracy core, some fifty percent faster than a 2020 Mac Pro.

Individual download links have been refreshed, and I've made all twenty-six available in a single archive for those who want them all. If you're even remotely interested in such things please subscribe.Īll of the emulators on this site have been updated to run natively on Apple Silicon. In other news, I've launched a YouTube Channel to show off my game projects. Thirty years ago I spent hours playing around with a command-line equivalent called Ars Magna hopefully my version will provide an equal measure of amusement to the masses. My latest creation is Anagram Master, a simple utility for building phrase anagrams on macOS. It is available today on the App Store for macOS, iPad, and iPhone. Superior Solitaire is a straight-forward version of the classic card game with no ads or in-app purchases. This week's project is a replacement for one of the few things I needed to use Windows for.
Thank you to everyone who's offered feedback and suggestions I really appreciate the help and support. The latest release supports Canfield, FreeCell, Golf, Klondike, TriPeaks, Pyramid, Westcliff, and Yukon Solitaires. Ensuring that you are using 64-bit Windows and a 64-bit build of Dolphin on a 64-bit Mac should help with the performance.I've pushed a couple of updates to Superior Solitaire over the last few weeks. Check the properties of My Computer to see if Windows has all the RAM installed on your machine.įinally, this is probably the most important check you can make: Is your Mac a 64 or 32-bit machine? If you have a 64-bit Mac but are running 32-bit Windows you can end up taking a very large performance hit.
Make sure Windows is using all of your RAM. Dolphin may be trying to use the lower end emulator. Many Mac models come with 2 video cards standard, one is a low-end Intel integrated graphics for everyday use and the other is a high-end card for scientific applications, gaming, video/graphics editing and programs where the programmer does't realize they are using a GPU filter instead of a CPU filter.

Make sure you have the video card drivers up to date. There should also be a Boot Camp manager in Windows you can use to see if your drivers are up to date on that end.

In Mac OS X, you can go to Apple Menu > Software Update… to update your Mac. Make sure Boot Camp and it's drivers are up to date. There are several things that can impact the performance of your computer under Boot Camp.
