XaviXEmu v0.2.0-alpha is the second public alpha release of this experimental emulator.

Compatibility

  • drgqst, ban_onep, ban_omt, ttv_lotr, ttv_sw, and ttv_swj are classified as Playable based on reproduced milestones and direct maintainer gameplay testing.
  • ban_naru remains Experimental. It reaches the title, menus, character selection, and story/tutorial path, but XaviX 2 CPU, graphics, sound, gestures, and persistence remain incomplete.

Highlights

  • Restores hidden equal-priority XaviX 2 menu layers.
  • Corrects XaviX 2 PCM looping, firmware-derived pitch, live voice updates, high-rate terminators, and mixer headroom.
  • Improves game-owned cursor detection and synthetic input for Onmyou Taisenki, The Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars.
  • Adds upright LOTR defense, the Star Wars lightsaber-spin gesture, and F10 timing/audio diagnostics.

Important limitations

  • Optical and motion input use a synthetic model based on observed firmware behaviour. This is not cycle-accurate emulation of the original optical hardware.
  • XaviXEmu is Windows-only and does not claim complete XaviX compatibility.
  • Users must provide their own lawfully obtained ROM ZIP whose size, CRC32, and SHA-1 exactly match the metadata documented by the project.
  • No ROM, BIOS, firmware, save data, screenshot, official artwork, or application icon is included.
  • This Windows build is not digitally signed. Windows may display a reputation warning for a newly downloaded executable.

The accompanying .sha256 file contains the SHA-256 checksum for the Windows ZIP.
