Cxbx WIP: Panzer Dragoon ORTA in-game
It's time to turn the non-believers into believers, lol.
Assuming most people don't pay much attention to the Cxbx homepage as much as they used to, here's what sir Caustik had to say recently:

"shogun made more progress on his Cxbx branch. The game "Panzer Dragoon ORTA" noew goes in-game, albiet without 3D. Check out shogun's new blog (here) to read more details and to keep up to date with his future progress!"
Since then, a few more updates have been added allowing further in-game progress, not playable because the frame rates are low and a handful of other bugs (sound buffer cache overflows, 2D geometry overlapping the 3D scene, garbage polygons and a missing DirectSound function call to name a few). The gfx bugs are rather heavy in-game, but the audio playback is rock solid and 90% stutter free!
There's also a Youtube video showing a greater visual of such progress.

Isn't it great to finally see a SEGA title running on Cxbx? IMO, every Xbox game with the SEGA logo was an instant classic :) Btw, check the blog every so often. You might be surprised by what you'll see!
Shogun.
