For the Dreamcast is even more of a joke, as you can't use GD-ROMs without a specic drive and using CDIs is pretty much the worse format for any retail game (and this is what Flycast supports.).

Btw, the "CD-Project" is a joke, it's just running games that always worked directly from CD-ROMs in other emulators and using this as marketing material (because this is more important to RetroArch than any actual preservation, as they don't even document the code they copied from other sources). If you look into the code, you can actually see code being simply copied from other sources as well, also without being credited. Most of the WinCE support came from the older nullDC repository (the project that became Reicast, by the same developer) HLE bios came from the older (still open source) Redream repository
Just to be clear, most of the progress mentioned in this article isn't actually work made by Flyinghead or anyone related to the RetroArch project, but copy pasted from many other sources that they don't credit: They ended it by noting that "real CD-ROM support" may even come soon, to run "CD-R based backup discs".

To sum up what Flycast is able to do they mention it can run Sega Naomi games, Windows CE games, no limitations on savestates and internal resolutions, actual modem support, built-in zero configuration online multiplayer support, 32bit and 64bit support for x86 and ARM. They said that lots of the work done for the Windows CE version will benefit all of the games run through it. Thanks to all the work that has gone into it, you will no longer need an external Dreamcast BIOS which is a pretty big milestone for such an emulator and will make it a lot easier to setup and use with the RetroArch front-end.įlyinghead, the main person working on Flycast plans to merge the regular and Windows CE versions into one version making things even easier to play with. In a post on the official Libretro website, the team notes that open source Dreamcast emulation with Flycast (a fork of Reicast) has progress along tremendously.
