I can't get it to boot my dcb, even when I recompile in 92a. Either I'm doing something wrong, or the memory constraints have changed. Dunno.

I'll keep playing around with it to see if I can get something to work.

I tried to get an early beta of Streets of Rage Remake to boot, but all I got was a black screen of death.

Nothing surprising as SoRR uses a customized version of Fenix.

I didn't try this, as I haven't been home for two days but...

did you put all of the data files in the root of the cd, or in the "cd" folder?

I won't be home to try it out for another two days, but I'm curious as to whether that's why my dcb didn't run.

In the Version 0.92a (beta) there is a bug with loading png images.
I did not want that the information on the version 0.92а was distributed further my forum, I knew that this version badly works, it was the test version. But nevertheless this news was distributed:)
Now you can download the normal version(0.93), with the loader.

I got it working, but now I see, with all of the fixes between .84b and now, that I've got a lot of debugging and hack removing to do. My game does a lot of weird, crazy shit now :) I see that Jose fixed the problem with processes with higher screen priorities set running before others, and many timing issues are fixed. For some reason, polling joysticks is all screwy now. Guess I better read up on all of the current fixes.

Actually, I'll probably use this new engine for my next game and stick to .84b for my almost-finished current project. Nice work!

So how does this work, you create a game on your Dreamcast and you send the files to your computer?

ha no elven... it is a gaming engine... Basically a blank pallete to skin and code your own game... you dont use the dreamcast to do this you use you pc then compile it all and make a bootable disk... heh you should find the link to the fenix website if your interested and read the readme's

Hi! Yes, IŽam the current Fenix Development and Admin of http://forum.divsite.net

Cool! Thanks for your DC port!
You must share the sources with the binary package, because the GNU/GPL license demand it.
Thanks again! Great work!
