Naomi

Naomi is basically a an Arcade Dreamcast with more RAM. I mainly became interested in naomi because of House Of the Dead 2 with a texture Pack. I can only find texture packs for Naomi, not DreamCast. I have tested it with the 2 GB Texture Pack and it is noticibly better. Graphics wise this is the best. The controls seem off though on a joystick. Also sometimes it enters servce menu. Need to figure out what button is launching the service menu.

Emulators that support Naomi

lr-flycast is the best since we get RGUI to dump textures and determine the folder name that it needs to read from.

1. lr-flycast
2. Flycast standalone
3. Demul standalone

hod2bios.zip

Getting HOTD2 to run was a PITA.

1. All of the files in hod2bios.zip are in hotd2.zip
2. None of the emulators seems to care they all want to see a hod2bios.zip
3. Fly cast standalone is fine with the bios file being in the same rom dir
4. lr-flycast requires it here RetroBat\bios\dc\hod2bios.zip

HOTD2 Textures

RetroBat\bios\dc\textures\hotd2 2GB if IMAGES. But I can tell a diffrence. Graphics wise it is the best way to play. Control are wierd though. The pointer keeps going back to center. Not sure how to fix.
