The latest version, 1.1a, is available in 2 files: Normal and Multi-CPU (HT or DC). Note that you must have the latest DirectX update (DirectX 9.0 files?) on your PC and a video card preferably compatible with PixelShadel 3.0 (otherwise the program will use PS 2.0). | The latest version, 1.1a, is available in 2 files: Normal and Multi-CPU (HT or DC).

The emulator has an overall great compatibility. Most games work without problems, although some configuration may be required for the optimal experience in some titles. It is easy to use and the system requirements are moderate. There is support for increasing the internal resolution, force feedback and GPU hardware acceleration. It has networking support, though it is flaky. There is an issue of how the emu's interface crashes if you have more than three USB devices connected and proceed to try and set up your analog controllers and calibrate them.<ref name="features">{{cite web|url=http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=6&Number=277024&page=8&view=expanded&sb=7&o=&vc=1|title=ElSemi SEGA Model 2 emu gone for good ?
