    Default DP bleemCast Compatibility List

    There is a compatibility list for bleemCast already online but it's not filtered or moderated in any way and as a result has loads of errors. So I decided to start my own list. I have a Dreamcast always hooked up so this software is more than just a curiousity, I want to know which PlayStation games it will play WELL.

    I'll update this from time to time, but thought I'd share my findings with everyone. Note that if it says "Very Good", it's very good as in 90% playable or better. Games listed as OK are playable but with sacrifices like missing soundtracks, glitchy graphics, or bad slowdown. I noted briefly the issues where appropriate.

    If you've got something to add, particularly to the "Very Good" list, please let me know! I have over 500 games and am going about testing in a very scatter-shot way.

    What's your qualification for the levels here? Just curious because you have Einhander as an OK where as I think if you turn off the sound, you wouldn't know anything was wrong (and I played pretty far in.) Seeing that game running at high rez almost brought a tear to my eye.

    Also I can add this:

    Any FMV is gonna be screwy.

    Most sound is gonna be screwy.

    Specific games:

    R4, plays well, menus a little weird, usual sound and FMV problems.
    Capcom Generations 1, plays, but the water in 1942 looks like floor tiles.
    RayCrisis, plays, a little slow, me thinks
    Metal Slug X, plays, but something was screwed up, I just can' remember.

    You named a bunch I know I tried, and I can't think of others off the top of my head.

    I've seen a lot of people harping on this becaue it won't do this and it won't do that, and it makes me kind of sad. People have to keep in mind this is a pre-E3 beta and the creators are pretty miffed about it getting out just because it's no where near what they wanted it to be. Still, I think it's cool for what it can do and I'm only sad they didn't get to finish it the way they wanted to.

    You're right about Einhander, I'll move that to "very good". If the game is totally playable, with no serious graphic glitches (like the common one - blood or sweat drops appearing as tiny white squares!), and soundtrack issues that do NOT affect the gameplay, it's "very good".

    In other words, if it's something I might actually enjoy playing in bleemCast, and won't make me wish they had done more with bleemCast, it goes on the "very good" list.

    I had Einhander confused with G-Darius which has some nasty slowdown moments.

    List updated. Thanks!

    UPDATED.

    I was very happy to find that the two latest Natsume releases, Gek-i-oh: Shooting King and Turnabout work fabulously with bleemCast, as does the top 50 title Roll Away. Game ON.

    Hi, I've always wanted to test out and try this stuff using the BleemCast disc. But I'm kind of stuck with no way to get it and no CD Burner. If anyone would be able to make a copy of the disc for me and send it. I will send shipping/cd costs via PayPal before hand. Please let me know in a PM if anyone could help out.

    Thanks very much and I'm sorry to go off topic.

    Anyway, does anyone know if these games work...

    -Final Fantasy(any of them)
    -Twisted Metal(any of them)

    Thanks again.

    I believe this was talk about the leaked beta release of bleem!cast. I actually just found about it last night, but after searching some torrent sites I've come up empty handed. It doesn't sound like it has very high playbility with anything, so its nothing more than a discussion piece really.

    Wow, this topic has risen from the grave, I forgot I even did this!

    To answer your question, there's a bleem! boot disc floating around the internet. This beta allows you to put ANY PlayStation disk in, but as noted at the top of this thread, it's limited in which games really work well if at all.

    The company no longer exists, so maybe itīd be OK to let us know where to find it?

    Thanks

    Download DC++ and go into the hub named Dreamcast. You'll find many copies there.

    Try using Emule (AKA Edonkey 2000) for hard to find files. Bittorrent Links burn out to quickly.

    I'll have a look when I'm done getting some other stuff off of Bittorrent. you can run both at the same time but you will end up with errors after awhile.

    Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4 plays near perfect. Some colors are wrong but doesn't effect game play at all. Sometime the sound cuts out but you just have to go to options and toggle on the volume control to get it back. Overall I would say its a 9 out of 10 for compatibility..

    Final Fantasy VII does not work unfortunately.

    However I seem to remember Vampire Hunter D working almost flawlessly and MediEvil II trying very hard to work.

    the tony hawk games all work pretty well, some weird colors once in a while, some of them you have to toggle the sound through the menu for some reason... BTW I need an ISO of this thing, or at least a torrent

    Old Topic...


    Anyone have an updated list of the games that will work with Dreamcast Bleem?

    Thanks for indulging my gaming habit when I was young, Dad. You were the best. I miss you. ~David Barnes 1926-2007~
