Hi,

About our missing in action. Chankast has been a very stressful project, it needed a lot of time to get it working. We did an incredible work to get the first release working in only 3 months, it was a full time work. After the 0.25 release I didn't feel like doing chankast again so I took a long break, but
we have been improving a lot of things in that time. The emu is faster and need less memory to work, an early xbox version is working, it's great to see shenmue 1 on xbox :), the sound is better, ...

About the future, we are thinking about releasing the source code and a binary with the latest changes.

It's good to hear some progress and I'll wait with baited breath for a possible xbox port (Need something to tide me over until surreal 2.0) I have a couple of chipped box's awaiting the goodness.

I'm a liittle bit confused. Do you still make PC versions?

Yes. It's just that the emu is faster and can be ported to an Xbox, which is good news for everybody with a PC and Xbox.

Great! I have some (stupid) friends that says: "Dreamcast is s**t, Xbox is best!" But now i can recomend Chankast for Xbox for them and they can see how good Dreamcast is. :)

an update on whats going on

three months to get a new emulator to work on a console none have been very successfull at, and at close to perfect speed and compatability. is a great feat. you guys definately have a future in software developement.

i wouldnt doubt you guys being able to make a PS2 emulator with the same success :p
