Apollo v0.02 compatibility list

    List legend:
  • [A]: Azimer has tried this one
  • [U]: USA Region (NTSC 60 fps)
  • [E]: European Region (PAL 50 fps)
  • [J]: Japanese / Asian Region
  • [!]: Well dumped rom-image
Most games where tested with Azimers Audio v0.21, Jabos Direct3D6 1.20b and Jabos Directinput6, some games needed to be run with other plugins but this is generally the setup we used and recommend. If you have any questions to ask about the games, please go to the Apollo Message Board, your question might allready have an answer or you can simply ask it there.
We would really like to thank Dominator and bjz for all their help in making this compatibility list
