XaviXEmu v0.3.0-alpha is the third public alpha release of this experimental
emulator.

Compatibility

  • drgqst, ban_onep, ban_omt, ttv_lotr, ttv_sw, and ttv_swj
    remain Playable based on reproduced milestones and direct maintainer
    gameplay testing.
  • epo_hamd is newly Experimental. It reaches its animated title and activity
    menu, with decoded left/right wireless-controller shakes and a separate menu
    confirmation input. Shake intensity and a complete play-through remain
    unverified.
  • tvpc_dor is newly Experimental. It reaches the title and main menu and has
    verified mouse, cursor-key, 24C16 EEPROM, runtime-state, and take-copter
    flight input. Most keyboard keys and later programs remain unverified.
  • ban_naru remains Experimental. XaviX 2 CPU, graphics, sound, gestures, and
    persistence remain incomplete.

Highlights

  • Adds strict two-chip ROM assembly and finite wireless bell-controller pulses
    for epo_hamd.
  • Adds a TV-PC keyboard matrix, cumulative mouse counters, 24C16 EEPROM, and
    per-game persistence for tvpc_dor.
  • Prevents ordinary mouse movement in US ttv_sw from becoming a held defense
    while preserving left-mouse defense and the Space-key lightsaber spin.
  • Keeps compatibility and control documentation aligned with the verified
    milestones and known limitations.

Important limitations

  • Optical, motion, and wireless input use synthetic models based on observed
    firmware behaviour. They are not cycle-accurate models of the original
    accessories.
  • 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.
