Wrong! USUALLY most processes use only a single core. Multithreading in most languages and environments requires extra work and thought to be put into the software architecture and DEFINITELY is not something that happens automatically. I do not know how Unity and Unreal handle things, but I would b...

Are you sure that what you are talking about here is not "vertex buffers" rather than "frame buffers"? Frame buffers are the texture that the shaders are all rendering to that is the final image displayed on the screen. Most games use two of them, a back buffer and a front buffer...

Those crazy Brazilian fucks... They were still making Sega Master System games like Sonic Blast after the N64 was released...

I think this might be the only time I've ever invested a significant amount of time into a Minecraft-style game, haha. I'm not sure if it'll be particularly fun, but I'm a gigantic, die-hard DQ fan, so I at least make an attempt to give everything with that brand a try... I'm currently so hopelessly...

Shit, I missed this thread. This is a really fucking badass take on pong, and I hope a lot of the newbies here realize how useful the source code is to them.

Yeah, actually someone just posted something like that the other day in one of the Dreamcast Facebook pages. They had a really cool hardware mod with a standalone Raspberry Pi connected to that port. I haven't looked at what the power output is on that port, but the Dreamcast has two gigantic, very ...

It's called the "G2" BUS, apparently. This was the most detailed description I've found, although there were a few other obscure resources around the net:

Soooo what do you plan to do with such privileged information?

Oh no, you're not. I feel really bad that somebody has had to ask us TWICE now to take their money... It's kind of fucked up. I just wanted to you know it's not because I've been sitting on my ass doing nothing. :mrgreen: Any way, just spent the day getting the Paypal store back up on the website. A...

Sorry man, this week had been really hectic for me. I have really bad pneumonia, and I've been scrambling to get the agreement with Razor finalized, get us a devkit for their new ForgeTV, update the server, posted about EVMU updates, lots of ES work, got the new audio guy up to speed, worked a lot o...

We're not dead at all. We're just overworked as shit and are sick of the social media bullshit. We're keeping our heads down and working our asses off, so we can triumphantly return with a badass product to bitch-slap the haters with.

I always love seeing one of Dave's videos in my subscription feed; he's always doing cool shit with the DC. I just stumbled upon him, and we've been talking a shitload. At this point in development, I haven't been able to sit down and sink a lot of R&D time into getting the more advanced lighti...

As for the programmable sound coprocessor... I am not familiar with the Saturn's chip, but the Dreamcast has a very similar ARM audio coprocessor... which has an extremely unfortunate bottleneck. I have never personally developed for it, but I've read plenty of posts from Randy Linden (the guy who c...

Well fuck me sideways. :shock: This is the kind of shit they're doing with the Dreamcast right now, as there's been a renewed interest in it and the homebrew scene with Kickstarters like Pier Solar and Elysian Shadows... But you never see this kind of shit happen EVER with the Saturn. Not just becau...

Sorry about that. Long story short, we never had a PayPal "merchant" account, which requires all this extra stuff, an income, and a tie to a bank account. My dad insisted we use his back when we first started, but we've since had a falling out, and he's finally pulled the plug from his acc...

Another variable to consider that's important for us with widely varying resolution sizes between Dreamcast, PC, smartphones, OUYA, etc is depending on the capabilities of your engine: camera zoom/uniform scale. The amount of real-estate you see onscreen may not be preset like it was back in the day...
