    Default Porting Help

    I want to try my hand at DC developing and I wanted to know how you would port games over using the Katana Development Software.

    Firstly: If you use Katana, don't expect any homebrew sites to host it, Reason: You are not licensed by Sega to use it = WAREZ, and anything produced with it = WAREZ.

    Use KallistiOS instead. It's free and completely legal. Windows users can download a handy ISO which includes cygwin. It seems that the page at consolevision with the ISO is dead... So I'll megaupload it sometime tomorrow.

    Alright so I downloaded it and extracted it, according to the readme it should have something to do with the PC aswell but when I mount it the data is not reckongnizable.

    Well how would I start porting?

    Are you talking about mounting the dciso R2 in a virtual drive ? if yes, you can't because this disc has built with bin2boot. So grab a cdrw and burn this image to it with alcohol in TAO mode. After this the cd can be readable and you can startup your dc environment setup.

    If you don't know it already, learn C++ and become familiar with basic *nix terminal commands.
