New To Forums...Where Do I Start?

The DC-PC Server wouldn't work with uploading code anyway. No tool has been released that can do that. You could try to get a hold of a Coder's Cable, although they seem to be almost as expensive as BBAs these days... Other than that, you're pretty much limited to using CD-Rs to test things (if you burn a disc with either DCHakker or Demomenu on it, you can use one multi-session CD-R to do lots of tests of your code (this is how I started out doing DC stuff, and did for about a year or so)).

As for cross-platform game development libraries for the DC and PC, there was one that was being worked on called Tiki that was being developed alongside KOS. Other than that, I've worked on a library called CrabClaw, but it is far from complete or usable for anything in the general case.

You wouldn't have link for Tiki, would you? I can't seem to find it...

Tiki was maintained alongside the KOS source code tree. If you check KOS out from the subversion repository then you'll probably get Tiki as well.

Note, I've never used Tiki, so I really can't say how good/bad it is.

i know this is an UBER n00bish question but, how do create a multi session disk? the ones i create on Win7 mess up DChakker...

In all honesty, I don't actually use Windows, but back when I did, I used Nero 5 (yeah, that's how long ago its been).

[epicasian]

So you use Linux now? What program do you use?

Thanks Again,

Actually, I use Mac OS X.

I only very rarely burn any Dreamcast-related stuff these days, but when I do, I do it all from the command-line with cdrecord.
