I got to meet James Purple Hampton the producer of AvP at the PRGE.

Here is a link to the panel he gave.

He is a very nice guy.

what I don't understand is he did the Lynx SD the neo Geo pocket SD and and handled all those orders just fine but somehow he's got to quit on the Jag one.

What's so different about the Jag?

Tried to tell him that the market for the Jaguar was bigger than 150 units like everyone else was telling him.and basing their number on how well games like Impulse X sold. I love Impulse X and bought it to support Mattias but a lot of people just weren't excited about a Arkanoid clone.The only kill...

Good work.

Are you just tweaking the engine or do you plan on rebuilding it for speed?

Aaron Fothergill was the audio engine man for Electric Spectacle.(Zoop) They were also contracted by Virgin to convert Demolition Man and by Atari to convert Magic Carpet. to the Jaguar. I had a quick brain pick with him about Atari support, Electric Spectacle, Magic Carpet and Demolition man. I onl...

Both 3do and Atari couldn't get the assets for this game they contracted with the company for yet apparently Sony and Nintendo had no problem.

Hmmm... Does this make anyone else wonder if Sony's deep pockets were at work here?

This is the problem with developing in ASM compared to C. Development cycle is abysmally long.

How about a poke around at the 3do/PC/PSX Mortal Kombat assets/sources and seeing what can be salvaged.

Next Gen considered this one of the best gaming experiences of the era. Yeah I found it frustrating
Perhaps overrated. Gonna fire it up again.

I am including a link to everything Mortal Kombat 3 source related PC/N64/3do in one spot so if anyone wants to look at these they can find them here instead of Willy Nilly all over.

I am curious as to the contents of the ISO. How would I go about extracting the contents since if it is a MAC disc, daemon tools can't really work with the ISO. At least I assume it is a mac ISO, since it is not a 3DO ISO since uncdrom cannot find any sectors to extract: Your wish is my command ! I...

Interesting.

I wonder what BP is?

Mighty Frog moving like a snail

This sold for $65? Anyone know who has it? Supposedly someone named bitrate on assembler had it.

Surprised there is not more discussion on here regarding this.

Looks good - our times on the city seem close. I'm having to replay with 60hz machine, so lets wait until I have a complete deck! 3DO Kid. (Should be tomorrow or tuesday!) I'm going to jump into this again this summer probably this week. However posting screenshots are problematic because you run i...

A procedural DML found that might translate well to Jag/32x and other systems without any VRAM. I have found that by interfering with the lighting system and modulating the lightmap while it is being built, it's possible to add some interesting effects to the scenery. The case I was experimenting wi...

A FF clone?

Unfortunately the problem Tbird foresaw with the release of a BASIC on the Jaguar has come to pass.

More as a tool to help port other things to the 3DO.

Here is an interesting 2015 blog of someone analyzing and I think he's yanking out the Sega Saturn Quake maps.

How are you doing Walter?

Bump!

3d0 kid? Devin? Anyone?

Can we address the upload limit issue?

Can we get the upload quota increased in these forums? Is there a reason it's got such a low cap?

People are trying to.post stuff and they're telling me they can't upload anythimg, images etc.

I'm having the same issue.

id wrote their own sound code so they could run tasks in the DSP. The Atari sound code fairly well takes over the DSP. Plus the Atari sound codes is a major drain on memory bandwidth. The music/sound driver I wrote for WMCJ and will use in NBAJ-TE uses 4:1 ADPCM compression and is over 30 times more...

I have a very simple algorithm to doom in texture mapping floors and walls in 65536 colors with light shading to enhance depth perspective and it runs at about 40-50 frames per second!!! I have texture mapping routines on the jaguar capable of drawing floors with depth shading and texture mapped wal...

The game is looking really good right now. I have optimized and optimized the game everywhere and right now it runs at about 15 fps at a resolution of 320x220. However, this could be faster if I didn't need to unpack all the character animations on the fly but since there are 12-15 Megabytes of spri...

Originally, I had to use Atari's music code (even though I had my own code). Atari's music code caused all sorts of bandwidth problems which involved major bandwidth hogging (two reads per cycle per channel regardless of the sample rate). In order to allow the DSP to access the bus during display, I...

Time and looking back.

I'll come back to this thread with anecdotal evidence as time goes on.

Hi Tama!

We need someone who can rebuild the engine itself for the Jaguar.

It's a shame the community doesn't have a large enough base that someone skilled hasn't done that for everyone to enjoy.

According to VladR there was an embargo on those things in that area in early 90s so he missed the whole console thing of that era
