O.o I'm intrigued Falco. Where could one download such documentary?GyroVorbis wrote:No, a casual DC developer should be safely abstracted away from anything that low level (same with PSP).
The problem is that the KallistiOS toolkit is also homebrew. My friend (Tvspelsfreak) and I have stumbled upon some absolutely insane Dreamcast documentation that covers pretty much EVERYTHING about the hardware. I honestly don't even know if it's legal that we have these. Could be some secret proprietary Sega documents.
Well, there are things in there that haven't been figured out or implemented in the KallistiOS library. For the two of us to screw with this kind of stuff, we have to drop down to the inline assembly level. For anything that the casual developer would need, you will be programming in C/++ with an API that's pretty friendly and similar to SDL/OpenGL.
NOTE: I'm sorry on my and Nico's behave on the incidents that happened on Facebook. Hopefully you could un-block me.
