hmm....what i dont understand how this game was for windows also. It didnt involve using the same physics for PC which is out now in Steam for under $5.00.
The problem I have with Model 2 emulation like this is that it looks fake, its not the real thing at all. Its GPU accelleration all over, and lacking certain effects too.
Thats why MAME is so awesome, when CPU's are good enough to run this perfect in MAME, it will be as perfect as emulation can get.
Wow I forget good this game used to look and play.....the arcade version and not the Saturn version. With the moving raft on Shun's stage and just the little things that made this a masterpiece.
@scorpion2222ar LOL the game sucks dude why are you here then this is a great fighting game that started 3D fighting gaming for MATURE players unlike playing fake ass martial arts fighters with fake ass powers,monsters,and animals as well a fighter i'm not going to say with women with big boobs for perverted guys yeah "this game sucks real bad" which is probably the player that cannot give a crack at the game and get good at it. Dude you need to stop trolling its bad for you.
lol @ Jacky's hair...it's not properly emulated, it seems. Still, it's nice to know that this game runs this well in an emulator..a few more years and it should be perfect...hell, this video is from 2008...it very well may be perfect now. I should check it out.
hey bro where on earth can i get an emulator for this game lol? ive been searching but cant find one. please help. i grew up on this game and i really want to revisit it again. thanks
so happy to see virtual fighter can be play on pc!!! can you please send me the link where to download it ...please teach me the whole thing about how to use the emulator......anyway , is it sega saturn or arcade version???
Hiii.....anyone know where to download an emulator that actually works with some roms actually complete (with no data missing) so I play this gem???No matter VF5...SF3....SC4...VF2 Arcade remain the best game!!!
Ok, I think it should all fit into one email and I have the bios files too so yeah it'll work for you I hope..... Works for me anyway. Let me know your email there matey. I got the rom from romnation(.)net if you can't find it just google it, it's easy enough. =)
@lucisac My only gripe with the Model 2 Emulator is the fact it's not compatible with Virtua Fighter 1and Die Hard Arcade, but on a plus side it works with my 3in1 PC Joy Box controller adapter that lets me use any Sega Saturn controller like my Saturn Arcade Stick (great for Virtua Fighter 2 and DOA 1) and the latest version of the Model 2 Emulator works with my PC Light Gun so I can play The House of the Dead without using a mouse to shoot and it works on HDTV from the PC input port
I have the same problem :S. I have the following files: vf2.zip, vf2o.zip, vf2a.zip and vf2b.zip... but none of them can be loaded. Anyone know how to fix this?
Make the largest file of them all named vf2.zip and try loading the original edition, then rename the others trial and error whilst matching the romset names in the load roms listing.
I'm having issues with getting Virtua Fighter 2, Manx TT, Motoraid, Virtua Cop 1 & 2 to work. I have the latest model 2 emulator version. I'm sorry if u may have answered these queries b4.
yes I've seen it. but I have a problem with virtua fighter 2 now as it seems it doesn't want to read the rom. says some files are missing. I have version 2.1 rom (the leaked one).
ElSemi is not giving up on the emulator. I have just heard word from him that there was a misunderstanding due to translation of the site admin, I will make an official announcement however when the time is right and it is final.
Hi Darrensb4, well I was advised by Wesker that my services are no longer required. Fingers crossed that the next release doesn't posses issues as version 0.8a did with the audio looping in Daytona USA, that was just awful.
Ummm...depends on how the next batch of testing goes...hopefully not too much longer hehe...although the longer the wait, the better the product...and the most satisfied you will be :)
I put a core 2 duo 2.4ghz chip in my pc and now all the games run at full speed, i just got a average video card, it's a new one but it only cost 130 usd, the chip was 120 usd, you don't need a 3000 dollar pc to play it at full speed.
It's a awsome emulator, after mame i think that is the greatest emulator.
Well I guess I am one of those people, I have not been to an arcade in years since the PS2/PS3. Plus the games aren't exciting like Daytona was back then.
In the 90s when i went to the arcade there was about 50 people in there now when i go there is about 5, a lot are closing down in my town, sega and namco and them got to do what they did in the 90s, if you pay to play a game you want it to be superior to what you play at home for free.
I was like wow when i 1st seen daytona and sega rally and sega rally 2 and daytona 2, these console based arcade games just don't have the same magic, they don't do nothing for me because they're nothing special, they just look like xbox 360 console games in a cabinet, model 2 looked 10 times more powerful than saturn, the textures and resolution and framerate looked years ahead, saturn ports of model 2 games were considerably watered down.
It was certainly a beast in its day and still now its games are interesting to look at, i could watch some for hours, awsome resolution.
Sega should make a model 4 board, that would be so awsome, their custom made hardware always produces much better graphics than their console and pc based hardware.
ENFDO it was very good for its time, the thing that impresses me the most about model 2 games is the 3dism, the depth of field is better than a lot of modern games depth of field.
when VF2 came out i was 13 years old. I remember how amazed i were. There is no home console able to amaze as Sega did at during the first half of ninetines.
In those times they made inverstment about techology and innovation. Today is a remake of past´s sucess. SEGA caved it´s own grave killing dreamcast. And died when decided to programing as a third party.
We were a public who bought Sega Saturn and Dreamcast because the exclusivite of its coin-ops. The rest games may not even exist.
A lot of people on all the forums and even on your page push for the release of 0.9 but forget to say thank you for all the work thats put into this. I know it has to be hard work so to ElSemi and team thank you very much. Without you guys this would be a dream. I look forward to 9 and thank god that the invisible walls in daytona are gone = p Those are the worst. Vf2 that will be priceless to play. It seems kind of silly but i wish they had a namco emulator that worked for prop cycle.
of course, you can say "the actual game make more polys in scene that model 2" of course. But i say that the spectacularity of virtua fighter 2 created in those times is unable to be created by another game in the actual days.
hey man i got a problem i have vf2 2.1, vf2, vf2a, vf2b, vf2o but still it gives me the same error
it says, mpr-17571.36 is missing or something. you guys know how to overcome it?

Check the romset names in the load list, it can be tricky to get them right.
lucisac 3 years ago
@ nooblet911
Use the ROM from the latest M.A.M.E set which is currently at version 0.129u3. That worked for me.
Also you will need a file called Model1.zip, once you have it put it where you keep the rest of your Model 2 ROMs.
Hope that helps ;-)
