Super Enhancement Engine
Currently implemented with support for 7 popular games. Support for more games will keep increasing as this emulator is in development.
- High Resolution - Not just an auto upscalar, but an internal drawing program is used to make sure that the higher resolution details can be manually drawn to look nice and crisp.
- Texture/Normal Map - Adds some nice details to the backgrounds to give them a higher resolution look.
- Overclock - Select games often filled with slowdown are overclocked.
- Wide Screen (where available) - We enable widescreen whenever the game is internally coded to support partial or full widescreen.
- Uncompressed Audio Replacement - We curate and pick uncompressed audio samples to replace original highly compressed audio samples.
- 3D - Currently only supported on perspective-style Mode 7, replaces tiles with 3D height mapped data.
- All enhancements can be individually disabled to suit your play style.
Note: Enhancement data contains no ROM or copyrighted data. You will need to provide the ROMs. Do not ask the developers for ROMs.
