After hooking up the 315-5881 encryption/compression emulation to Model 3 I collected some data from Dirt Devils and sent it to Metallic in order for him to search for a key. He found one, and now the HUD graphics (text etc. on the screen) get correctly decrypted and decompressed – something which is currently lacking in the ‘SuperModel’ emulator. Here are some shots of Dirt Devils running in MAME with the text layer working.
As this is MAME, and this is a ‘modern’ 3D game it doesn’t really run too well on my hardware (although I’ve heard it’s not so bad on an i7) so fingers crossed this brings the SuperModel team back to life and they backport some of this work.
Will it implemented in Virtual On and LA Machineguns?
I’ll collect some data from those for analysis tomorrow.
Assuming there is sufficient data, and they don’t use any key bits we don’t know about (we’re currently at 29 bits, it’s fairly likely the keys are really 32) then yes.
magtruck also has encrypted tiles.
Great work Haze and Metallic!
I have an i7 i will test it in Mame and if i can i upload a youtube video to let people see who is working it now.
Is there any chance to see a working model 3 driver?
In other words Ville Linde posts tons of video on YouTube (not only about model 3) but not a line of code in the repository.
He states that Magical Truck Adventure is working since october now you says he is an encrypted game.
I’am a bit confused.
There is hope for Radikal Bikers? A friend of mine loves it …
I dont think that the Supermodel Team will come back :( , even the forum is gone. Its really sad, that they stopped the work on Supermodel. At least we got some games, that are playable :) .
XD wow nice . well you DA man haze :) gj mame devs,. gl supermodel :)

The game can ‘play’ but there are missing graphics (things like ‘Insert Coin’ and some ingame messages) those are encrypted.

Radikal Bikers has worked for years, although there seems to be a threading bug in recent MAME versions causing some graphical issues, it’s unrelated to any of the Sega stuff.
very good job Haze and Metallic ,I assume that this encryption could fix cars AI in Daytona 2?
