      Isn't the windows supermodel emulator windows only anyway, so even with the source (Which isn't available) it would need a big re-write to move it away from windows.

        The closed source Model 2 emulator is completely awesome. It could run on literally ancient hardware without any problems whatsoever... high level emulation at its greatest!

        I wish the source code gets somehow released one day.

          @matchaman Yeah, that's the crux with closed-source, non-free software. Even when it's free as in free beer, if the author stops developing it, nobody else can continue. :(

          That said, someone™ could try to contact the developer about that. <:)

                @ParanoidAndroid please don’t bump posts as per https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/3/read-this-first

                besides, unless you can get in contact with the author and get the source code released, there’s no possible progress that can be made (and even then...)

                    @ParanoidAndroid since you asked, well here we are, atleast almost there, I'm sure this will reopen this topic and I did read theses old posts but now the game has changed.
                    let's try to get things going with this news I have, so someone I know was messing about and was board so he ended up getting Sega model 3 to compile on rpi4,I checked a few months ago but no Open Source was there so anyways so we tired to compile and got errors, then fixed that as we went on to see what games to run, we tested Daytona USA 2 and the lost world Jurassic Park here's a preview of the lost world with shader errorsalt text, I expected to run good but ran slow at 10 to 35fps, but better then my laptop and of which I couldn't even get to start.

                    So I'm here to see if someone knows more or can see how to port this thing as the source is now open, here's the link ```
                    http://svn.code.sf.net/p/model3emu/code/trunk/

                    I know it's not a working emulator yet, but maybe we can get this fire going.
                    
                    Thank you and hope to see someone knock this out.
