This now means there's a perfectly playable Scud Race and Le Mans 24 Hours on PC.Game support added for Spikeout as well.Go grab it - www.supermodel3.com.

Cool! I used to love Le Mans on the DC, didn't even know there was an arcade version of it. Love the name of the emulator too .

[Silvergun X]

Completely different game. The Le Mans 24 hours game in arcade was purely Sega - Never got a home conversion

What kind of specs do you need for a PC to run this decently?

[Cepp]

Ohoho, it has a Mac version, downloading now.

Nothing too beafy by the looks of it, my cruddy Mac can run it full screen/fullres/full speed.



I'd love to get some AA going, need to mess around with it some more tomorrow.

Thanks for the info, will try it out soon. Can't wait to (hopefully) play Daytona after all these years, never liked the DC version for some reason.

Thanks for the heads up on this

Not getting anything like 60fps on my PC. Scud Race hovers around the 30fps mark but Le Mans 24 is completely unplayable for me

Anyone managed to reassign the controls so they work with a 360 pad? At the moment steering and acceleration/braking are both on the left analogue stick. Want to move the throttle and brake to the triggers but can't make sense of the instructions

Have you tried reducing the PPC Frequency? Scud Race apparently works well with the command -ppc-frequency=25

This halves the clock speed so the game is more likely to slow down during busy moments, but doesn't take so much processing power to run so you'll get a nice little performance boost out of it.

If you want to assign inputs to an xbox 360 pad, do the command 'supermodel -config-inputs -input-system=xinput'.

Use up and down on your keyboard until you get to the Racing Inputs, and press Enter on the inputs you want to configure. You can then assign the acceleration and brake to the triggers.

Make sure you press Q to exit the input configuration and not Esc. Q will save, Esc will not.

Load the game as 'supermodel roms/scud.zip -ppc-frequency=25 -input-system=xinput' and you're sorted.

Cheers Silvergun, I'll give that a try.

Does Star Wars Trilogy work properly now?

[Silvergun X]

you have to let the attract sequence run for a bit before you start the game, but yes. It works perfectly

Damn, hope my laptop will run it. It will look sweet on the projector.

[megatron]

I get slowdown on some cutscenes and certain levels. Looks like I'll need to buy a new pc.

Try reducing the ppc frequency when you launch and see if that helps.
