+LS650 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Over in the Facebook forum Vectrex fans unite!, a poster named Ralf Kornmann has been posting links to alpha releases of a new Vectrex emulator, so far called just Vectrex Emulator Version 0.2.1 Alpha (Windows; DirectX 11). This is really a great emulator so far. The graphics look great and the sound is really good. I'm not sure if it would be cool to post a direct link to the Google drive download, so I recommend folks go check it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted January 12, 2020 Author Share Posted January 12, 2020 BTW, unlike most (all?) other Vectrex emulators, this one does a decent job with Clean Sweep. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+LS650 Posted January 13, 2020 Author Share Posted January 13, 2020 I assume this is for reasons of privacy, security, etc. Setup a dummy account. "Hello, I'm Bob Smith of Bumfuque, Egypt." If you don't give Facebook real info, they don't know anything about you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to speak ill of the "dead" - only ParaJVE and the original Vecx do not display Clean Sweep Ok. DVE, Vectrexy, Vide, Mess All make pretty good attempts to display CleanSweep right!

Vectrexer Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Over on Facebook Ralf Kornmann gave me permission to share the link to the Early Alpha version of his Vectrex Emulator software here. Vectrex Emulator for Windows & DirectX 11 ( https://drive.google.com/file/d/15-_Ch8ME0-XE9Al3sy6ocAuWx8afvZ-V/view ) Check the link fairly often. So far, the announcements of updates are posted in the Vectrex fans unite! Facebook group. The link to the updates has stayed the same. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taufan99 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 This emulator has potential! Hopefully there will be newer updates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that compared to other Vectrex emulators, the screen appearance is very realistic. The sound quality is also excellent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamchevy Posted October 10, 2023 Share Posted October 10, 2023 I'm sorry to necrobump, but has there been any updates to this emulator? I still use the original one, and I think its the best Vectrex emulator out there still. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+LS650 Posted October 15, 2023 Author Share Posted October 15, 2023 To my knowledge, he hasn't made any further releases... if I'm wrong, please let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
