    Dreamcast Super Mario Wars 1.7a pre-release

    Smurph has released a pre-release of Super Mario Wars 1.7a in our forums here

    For some reason, my 1.7a port runs decent... It just has memory consumption problems. It's playable, just don't expect more than 1 or 2 games before crashing.

    I need to start work on it again... but until I do, here's a little pre-release, I guess.

    Download locally here

    Noooo!!! It's not ready for news posts! ;_;

    EDIT: If you're gonna release it like that, at least snag the CDI.

    The 1.7a data files can't be had from the CVS anymore, and I had to do some downsampling.

    And here's an excerpt from the readme I forgot to include in that archive but am too lazy to rebuild:

    possible sound config combinations that probably won't result
    in a memory-related crash:

    Setting 1:
    Announcer: None
    Music: Standard
    Sound: On

    Setting 2:
    Announcer: Mortal Kombat
    Music: Off
    Sound: On

    You can try others if you like, just don't complain if it crashes.

    It also seems to crash during loading from time to time.
    Also, this release requires a keyboard.

    sorry Smurph, but other sites had newsposted it already (before me) ;(

    we try to only host plain files so that the user can do what they want with it (bootdreams, dc hakker, dream inducer)

    i'm at work (uni) and so your download won't work lol

    btw you can upload 7z files to the forum now

    also if you want to release private build try the private developers forums at the bottom

    I was wondering what was wrong with my controllers. Then I plugged in the DC keyboard and the game played fine. Hehe. The sound is just like GPFs version. But overall it's a great effort! Thanks for this release. Now I have to try some of the other options.

    Yeah, I'll have to do that next time, rofl.

    Oh, and you've probably noticed that my site is down. I had to reformat (backed everything up though), and somehow irreparably bricked my router. On top of that, my WLAN card has taken to dropping its connection roughly every 5 seconds.

    This wasn't really meant to be posted all over the place... It was just to hold people over a little until I can get the thing done. I just have to get around to setting up cygwin again.
