Title: Nebula's Model 2 Emulator 1.0
Post by: DJ_Izumi on January 15, 2011, 01:26:33 pm

While 'The State Of Mame' is discussed, Nebula's Model 2 Emulator had it's 1.0 version released on New Years.  It's pretty cool.  Most notably, it now has correct widescreen support and you can also replace textures and models.

Finally the 1.0 version :).

- Finally fixed VF2 hair problems, now all graphics are correct.
- Added LUA script support for options, cheats and other uses (check model2lua.txt in SCRIPTS folder)
- Added texture replacement support (check model2lua.txt in SCRIPTS folder)

•Model 2 Emulator v1.0. This package includes both the normal and MultiCPU versions exes.

While much of the discussion is in Spanish, in this thread you can see guys showing off texture replacements they've done and even higher poly car models.

The big downer for me is that the new version uses pixel shader 3, so a lot of older video cards will nit work on it, and it still hasn't fixed it's lightgun issues, so I am sticking with the older version for now
