Release of a Technical Demo of Scud Race for Dreamcast, an unpublished SDK for SET 2 dev kit and a Kamui Wrapper.

I'm looking at the documents of my SET 4 SDKs.

Sega went from SET 2 to SET 4.

I don't know if a SET 3 existed.

Thank you so much for your continuous effort to share bits of SEGA history with us.

Is there any chance we could get our hands on those unreleased SDKs?

Maybe it was some sort of internal build only? Either way the guy claims is a set3 running a build of the tech demo for sh4 not pc on nulldc. I guess the only way to clear things up will be to ask him to clarify.

Maybe it is an update path for those that skipped SET 3.

Yes, it can be something internal. One thing is for sure, we want a video!!!

I'm getting ahead of myself in anticipation of the Kamui Wrapper source code release by the end of the year.

People will be able to work on all technical demos.



Update : Scud Race Dreamcast Tech demo release

Added 26 tech demo for SET 2 Dreamcast to use with Kamui Wrapper.

Duplicates and different versions of the same demo should be included in this archive. Not all of them work. No optimization work has been done for them.

The source code of the wrapper should be released before the end of the year.

You get the SDKs, an additional technical demo pack and the source code of the Kamui Wrapper

Make us dream by making as many demos Dreamcast playable as possible

We especially want "Drive2" in connection with Scud Race

I've been waiting 20 years to launch Drive 2!!!

What Sifting, the creator of the wrapper writes about the wrapper, may even be interesting for homebrew games:

"You will need premake5, direct3d9 and gcc to build the source. Clang should work as well, but I have not tested it."

"As an aside, while writing this wrapper I realised that the Kallistios API doesn't support the PVR's on chip accumulation buffer - am I correct in this assertion? I saw no functionality for it when I looked over the source code. KOS seems to have support for it in the headers, so it should be quite possible to add the functionality if needed. It would enable homebrew developers to implementation a whole new class of effects on the DC if so - I believe it's how urban chaos and alone in the dark 4 managed to do shadowmapping, and also how raster managed to get quake3 running so well."
