Genecyst

It's hard to tell which genesis emulator is better, this one by far has better sound, but is a bit slower than KGen.  It also has a great and easy to use interface, with many options.

The latest version fixes the following bugs:

  • Fixed relative path problem on command line
  • Autoversion setting
  • Fixed FM channel 6 problem
  • Improved CPU skipper
  • Corrected 68K IRQ levels (stupid typo)
  • Fixed a Z80 reset bug
  • Fixed some more z80 bugs
  • F11/F12 switch resolutions (get SDD!)

KGen

I haven't really played the latest version, but his one has more speed than genecyst.

The latest version fixes the following bugs:

  • Various compatibility issues have been fixed. Surging Aura, MazinSaga, Dashin'
  • Desperadoes now work correctly, to name but three.
  • Improved ScanLines support. (VESA 2.0 ONLY). Should work on more video cards. Use at your own risk.
  • Altered EUROPEAN mode. Previous versions only had full European support when in 50Hz mode. Note that music / sampled sounds will sound faster - This is due to emulating 1/50th Sec. of European Genesis in 1/60th Sec ! But this will fix the European games that only worked in 50Hz mode.
  • Stopped LEFT & RIGHT or UP & DOWN being pressed at the same time. This can happen on a real Genesis with a worn pad, and programmers are SUPPOSED to make sure it won't affect their games.... But some people don't listen, apparently.
  • Improved the File Requester Keyboard Shortcuts. You can now type a few letters within a short space of time, and it will jump to the first file starting with those letters. The current search string is displayed at the top of the file requester. Also, pressing SHIFT and a letter will jump directly to the Disk Drive of the same letter.
  • Added 16-Bit Video Mode. (VESA 2.0 ONLY). This was ported from the now defunct KGen-X, and has been considerably rewritten to cope with the new Raster FX System. It is slower than the 8-Bit mode, but allows games that try to do more Palette Raster FX than the 8-Bit mode can cope with to function properly. Note that there are a few things left to do in this mode - for example, you cannot currently save a ScreenShot when you are in 16-Bit mode, and the only Joypad modes that work in this mode are SLOW and SIDEWINDER.
  • Various small changes to the GUI.
  • Various cosmetic fixes.
