The sprite priority issue in battle is fixed with alpha z-write but I have noticed another bug: after a while the text menus are screwed up (all text menus wether in battle or not), saving and reloading fixes the text.

I heard there's a cheat which can fix some black screens, could someone post it? thanks

tested again arcadia on 0.25 alpha release

firstly the game runs incredibly faster, I get full speed now on my athlon-xp1800+ much thanks to the chankast team (full speed that is 30/30 fps)

now for the bugs, the screwed up text menus are NOT fixed
and the game still freeze when exiting the status screen :(

finally, a new bug in that release: the sounds are screwed up (very noticeable in battle) anyone could confirm?

Hi, new member alert, sorry in advance if I break any rules.

I've just tried Skies of Arcadia using the latest Chankast 0.25 and it freezes on a black screen (graphical error, sound still works so I think the game might still be going on behind the graphical error) when I exit the menu screen

I know n00by duddy has already mentioned this error but I was wondering if anyone had found a workaround without posting it here, short of never accessing the menu screen.

It works beautfully for the intro, the first mini-battle and then as soon as you get control of your character inside the ship I tried to access the menu and it crashed.

Oh and since this is my first post I'll extend my admiration for the chankast team and their sterling work on this most amazing of achievements. I could scarcely believe how advanced this emulator was when I fired up the first alpha. Runnign commercial Dreamcast games on my PC governer? Surely you jest!

Anyway, I'm rambling. Thanks for reading. :happy smiley with wavy handed greeting:

Ah thanks for the reply, shame I'd have loved to have seen it up and running. Still now there's something even more concrete to look forward to for future releases. I'm sure it's a priority for the Chankast team being one of the Dreamcasts best games.

Instant gratification does make us lazy and unappreciative after all. ;)

Maybe I'll see how far into I can get without using the menu!
