A cut down proper play-version you can complete from start to finish can be made but not in the current form of this game it's massive this still needs a lot of work

cansave {int}

Defines how save states work in this level set.
0 = Save state is disabled
1 = Only saves last level (Default value). It's buggy currently though.
2 = Strict save. Lives, credits, HP, MP, weapon, remap color etc are saved. When this saved state is loaded, players immediately enter last level without going to select screen. If it's multiplayer game, you will need partner.

Is there a Dreamshell version of DreamBOR 6.8? I tried to make an iso with the 6.8 files but it doesn't work...

What powers dreambor6.8 SDL_dreamhal here is the benchmark as you can see almost double the blit speed used by any dreamcast port fasts sdl for dreamcast

Not sure how hdd loads files or what dir it looks for but loads the into then stops it prolly not supporting loading a bin form a bin so just load the bin the intro loads db.bin is dreambor etc

it's unscrambled bin


this all do to bios reactivation which i have to code into this megavolt gave me the code ..

then be no more versions as such..
