Rage of the Streets Update

Gonna post about my progress with Rage of the Streets to get some attention for the new release that's expected to happen in a few weeks :)

This new release will feature the 100% overhauled original game with some nice little extras thrown in. All music, sounds and graphics will be noticable improved over the original release and also some OpenBoR features will be implemented.

For a later release we will be continuing to improve the original but also working on new game modes to be added featuring original SoR/BK stages.

Yes, the eyes have been fixed on all 80 cells :P so the eyes stay blue no matter what alt mapping's selected.



Of course I got much more work completed but for now that's all I'd like to share. ;)

More progress:

I noticed that on the original BRIDGE, Axel was getting bored:

And: Though I needed to slow down a little (so I wouldn't loose interest in working on it) I'm really proud to announce that the other team members made some incredible progress on Rage of the Streets lately. This applies especially to Mr.Q and Sman, but also to Albatross and Shyning.

Also Dawd (who posted above) just joined the team to take care of the PSP compatibility. This will not affect Dreamcast compatibility in any way. Our aim is to optimize this game for Dreamcast as much as possible and that's exactly what we will do:

Thanks to many talented people working on the engine you can expect full 44KHz sound, support for up to 4 players at once, PAL & NTSC versions, rumble support and short loading times on the Dreamcast version. :D

Nice work ROTS team! Sorry if i havent helped you out in a while Christuserloeser but ive been busy. Hope you don't mind. :) And the version of ROTS you gave me to work on i have nearly finished making it widescreen! Just need to do one more stage and its finished and ready to add more things to it!

No prob. Sounds great! Keep us updated on your progress ;)

Btw, there'll soon be more stages for you to convert :)
