The ATani starts work on DCGen Again! topic on our forums has been going strong for the past few days & for the most part the reaction to ATani’s return has been very positive, but unfortunately there’s still some whiners & complainers acting like spoiled brats. Anyhoo, forum regular Van Lardo asked what we can expect to see in the next release of DCGen, here’s ATani’s answer:

“Here are a few of the things we are working on getting in the next release:

1) speed up graphics rendering by switching to the TA instead of the framebuffer approach.
2) Fix flickering in fullscreen/windowed mode.
3) Remove the ‘console’ ui which has the text above and below the game screen in windowed mode, which none of the text is hooked up to anything really.
4) Faster rom loading, and fixing SMD files to not leak memory.
5) New GUI

If we get to them here are other things we have planned:

1) fix sound subsystem.
2) state save to VMU.
3) sram support.
4) zipped rom support.
5) rominfo available in gui.
6) netplay of some sort.
