Well, that doesn't sound like an actual improvement :D Overclocked VMU is badass though, I didn't even know such a thing exists!
Any experiences from users without mods?

Yeah, if you want to be able to save any of your games on an OC'd system, you gotta OC the VMU to the same percentage. Unfortunate side effect to squeezing the most from the system.

Oh well, I mean I own it on Steam, the re-released one, but honestly it has way more charm being played on Dreamcast IMHO.

Ok, silly me, I didn't know that it is mandatory to overclock the VMU.
I only own the 3DS-remake of CS besides the older DC-port. Great game.

Hey everybody, I forgot to mention that I just discovered there was ANOTHER update to the DC port of NXEngine back in 2017 so just last year. If you wan to see what all has changed or been added grab the ISO here.

https://sourceforge.net/projects/nxdc/files/

NXDC-BUILD-2017-05-25.zip is the file you want. Game seems super optimized now but not sure how well it runs on disc. I have a GDEMU now.

Why the sigh bro? Improvements are always welcomed especially when the game was stutterery as it was with the audio in the first release lol. Just burn a new disc or something.

What? It comes as a CDI already. Just click the file called NXDC-BUILD-2017-05-25.zip 2017-05-25 647.1 MB.
