NOIZ2SA over Dreamcast

[wraggster]

excellent uploading now

[Hola]

Update about the stages of the game for infomation.

It has 10 stages.
And these stages
Endless
Endless Hard
Endless Extreme
Endless Insane

Also is there a source code release? Because if there is couldnt someone add FOF's auto region select and then we wouldnt need a pal and a NTSC release. It would just select the right region.

[Hola]

Ok I went and play tested it and heres how it stands up to the pc version.

It has music which most first release normally dont which is nice.
Controller support

Some thing tho however are there is lag when there are tons of shots on screen at one time.
Game seems to run a little to fast to be able to play it easly. It like playing on extreme mode speed the whole time. Its a little choppy too.

I'd say this is a near perfect port and a great job ;D

Thanks!


Now i try use fixed point for GP32 port.

[Hola]

Does the DC port use SDL to do screen rendering? And would switching it to PVR give it that little extra boost of speed?

[chui]

I don't know, i use SDL port (Bero) and this game do SDL 100% software render.

[Hola]

It would be neat if there was an updated version with a few fixs. Anyways thx for the port.

[wraggster]

ill second that, thanks for checking it out too hola

[Hola]

I think these are the things that could be fixed.
*Auto region select. The open source of FOF has this.

*There a option to quit and return to windows. I dont see that being needed on a DC

*DC shooter video mode supports: Horizontal, Horizontal Wide, Vertical, Veritical Wide, Virtical Left, Vertical Left Wide.

*SDL to PVR screen output

*Large scaled enemies, ships and bullets to make there easier on the eyes on a tv and easier to dogde.

*Possable 2 player support add in.

*Option saving to remember which screen mode you want to use.

*Dim out stages that you've beaten. Even the PC version doesnt do this for some reason while all this other games using this engine do.

*Side bars switched to black on vertical mode as its better for your tv and it makes it easier to see where the screen ends.

Thanks for your time.

M@jk made an SBI of this, and sent it to me. As soon as my host gets things straightened out again (apparently they decided to move servers without telling anyone, so it's been down all day), I'll make it available for download from DCStuff.
