[32x] It feels to me that Sega 32x have 3d rendering core #3242

Closed WhiteMagicRaven closed 2 years ago

WhiteMagicRaven commented 2 years ago

If so its is true? Can it be in distant future , in theory, upscale 3d like bsnes do it for mode 7 ?

I'm not quite sure what you mean. Are you asking if upscaling can be applied to 32X games? It can be done via shaders. The PicoDrive32x core doesn't have that feature built-in, at least not the version we bundle with BizHawk.

edit: Can you please not file the same Issue on multiple repos?

3D on the 32x is purely software rendering, there's no dedicated hardware for 3D. That along with 32x emulation barely looked at means it's unlikely (if not just impossible) you'd ever see some sort of internal upscaling (the most that would be possible would just be game specific hackery).

WhiteMagicRaven commented 2 years ago

Well the games like Metal Head and Virtua Racing Deluxe the cartridges with this games comes with additional 3d chip on own cartridge?

by reading wikipedia i get confused here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/32X#Development https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Genesis#Sega_Virtua_Processor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sega_Genesis#Sega_32X

it tells that it has limited 3d capabilities
