Sonic Mania Dreamcast Port

The port seems to be running well now according to this dc dev post:

Can somebody compile this into a GDI or something for Flycast?

This is a work in progress, we have to wait a little more.

In my opinion the glitch like at 25s is due to emulator.

Incredible the work that modders can do. I imagine the port may struggle in the more graphically intense sections like the 3D bonus stages. Still, I didn't think the Mario 64 port would be functional at all and that worked out fine so I'm just going to patient with this one.

Hello, friends! So glad you've seen the updates frome SonicFreak and me! I'm one of the KallistiOS authors. We have been trying to bugtest and do hardcore testing on the KOS Git repository right now to ensure that everything works and runs great on as many homebrew games and apps as is possible to test with, because we're about to make a big release of KOS!

Sonic Mania was one of the games that I wanted to test the new KOS and toolchain against specifically, and... I just loved it so much and had so much fun with it that I started seeing if I could contribute to it as well, under SonicFreak's lead... and WOW. it has been fun as HELL, guys!

This is a work in progress, we have to wait a little more.

In my opinion the glitch like at 25s is due to emulator.

Nope. No emulator. This was captured directly from the hardware, but I want to be very clear which hardware. My Dreamcast was connected via this HDMI cable: https://tovideogamesupply.com/product/h ... dreamcast/. This adapter is pretty good; however, it's connected to my PC with this cheap piece of shit: https://www.amazon.com/AMZHRLY-Recordin ... 0aWM&psc=1... Unfortunately it is cheap and low quality, so it's causing the screen tearing you can see in my videos. These are not there on the real hardware!

I've also been posting more updates. If you like them, please follow me on Twitter for more!

This is amazing, will it support widescreen?

[DingusMagoo]

Can’t wait for this release! The more systems this game is on, the better!

I'm asking to myself how it's done for porting the "Christian white head megadrive sonic engine" for the dreamcast ?
this is a high performance.

Super excited for this project

Same here, I'd pay full price for a copy of Sonic Mania for DC.
