From official site:
… there is time for some more news.
Thanks for the few guys who were trying to help with graphics, unfortunatly some of them did not reply to an answer, but maybe that’s comming (affected people, make sure you check your spam folder too).
We now have three potential pixel artists who want to help out, let’s see if the detail talk will scare them off or not.
Hopefully everything is moving on soon…

To be honest I'm not even sure where to start on this one... this release most importantly has Insight and GDB included. I've been using it for the last month or two and it's a real treat using it. I've included a tutorial on how to use it. Lets go through the changelog. KallistiOS has been updated. The old SDL patches Bero posted to KOS' SourceForge page are applied, lets not forget the timer changes OneThirty8 posted here. More so, SDL headers and libs are finally organized. dc-load IP and Serial have been updated also with a tutorial on compiling it yourself. dc-tool can be used in your Makefile with $(DCTOOL_SERIAL) and $(DCTOOL_IP). Hopefully the people who had problems with "make" in the past don't have the issues anymore since I've added the package to Cygwin. The new GL port by chui has been included however it's lib has been renamed to glx and it's headers are in GLX to prevent the default GL from being overwritten. The toolchain has also been recompiled using the newlib patch KOS provides - more information about that here. And finally, the DreamInducer theme was fixed. No more purple loading screen, no more cut off text and no more load screen fading in\out to speed up the loading time a little. There so many changes I couldn't keep track of, I'm sure there's more like new version of tools in the extras folder, more tools, and some exclusive tools I've made like an VMU LCD image converter and the Chankast BIN loader that's been in the last few releases.
- GDB and Insight included for Debugging
- KallistiOS 1.3 updated to svn 561
- dc-load IP\Serial 1.0.4 updated to svn 556
- dc-tool IP\Serial 1.0.4 included in /kos/utils/dctool
- scramble included in /kos/utils/scramble
- SGE (SDL Graphics Extensions) lib by BlueCrab
- SDL examples by Chui included
- More tutorials (Insight, Updating dc-tool)
- Links to most DC related sites
- "make" package in Cygwin problems hopefully fixed
- Default SDL has been patched to work right
- SDL sources and headers reorganized
- libGLX by Chui and updated SDL libs
- toolchain rebuilt with the fixed newlib patch
- DreamInducer theme fixed

SEGA Japan has urged Dreamcast owners not to supply their email addresses and console serial numbers to Dreamcast.com as the site is a phoney.
The publisher confirmed it did not own the the domain to Japanese site Mainichi (translated by Joystiq), claiming the logos displayed were being used illegally. Even the dreamcast.com domain registration was fraudulent, apparently.
SEGA Japan will be taking "appropriate measures".
News emerged at the weekend that the site was offering @user.dreamcast.com email accounts to anyone supplying a console serial number.
SEGA Europe avoided commenting on the issue yesterday, which suggested something fishy was going on.
Something Bass fishy, if you ask us.

Well over a year and a half ago i handed over the Dreamcast Site to DS69 to run but recently with the great man being away in Australia (lucky Bast) and the major problems with the file archive and server probs etc, Our Dreamcast site has been rotting away.
A few weeks ago i made the decision when i had time to finally sort out the Dreamcast Site and get it all back up to scratch, first on the agenda was to ditch the old design which is nice but problematic to work with, the new template needs some work but im hoping some of the more gifted graphical people will sort that for me.
But anyway most of the site is back to being perfect apart from files that were originally on the now dead DC Homebrew Site which im uploading when i get time.
The reason for this news and its on all the Network of Sites is to let you all know that DC News - DCEmus Dreamcast site is back and not only that but the Dreamcast Scene is going through a major resurgence with the releases of a New Genesis emulator, New Games, a new compilation and much more. If you have a Dreamcast rotting away at home or can pick one up cheap then you could be enjoying one of the best console homebrew scenes.
Check out all the details on the releases above at DC News --> http://dreamcast.dcemu.co.uk/

SEGA has offered no explanation of its relationship with website dreamcast.com, which asked you for your Dreamcast serial numbers over the weekend.
Arms were thrown in the air like missiles after GameRush declared the domain had not been owned by the publisher for several years.
But Internet detective Videogaming247 pointed out that the Whois registry lists SEGA Corporation or, more specifically, Shoji Takamitsu as the owner.
Which is a trifle confusing. However, we would have expected a more concrete answer from the publisher had it owned the site and been planning something Dreamcast-related.
Dreamcast.com asks you for your console serial number and email address before supplying you with your @user.dreamcast.com account. We suggest holding fire for now.

I am proud to announce the first release of the excellent Gens emulator to the Dreamcast. Chui, Stef and I have been working on this port about a year and a lot of assembly code had been translated into C. It is been a great effort but i really think it is worth it. At last, you can see all our finest in one shot.
The project is intented to bring high quality genesis emulation to the DC, not to mention game compatibility.
At the moment, this alpha version features the following:
- Two SH4 assembly engines especially design for the DC.
* FAME: Very fast M68000 emulation core written 100% in SH-4 assembly code.
* FAZE: Z80 emulation core written 100% in SH-4 assembly code.
- Accurate Genesis VDP emulation:
* DMA transfers with accurates timings
* Window plane
* Sprite plane
* Vertical Interrupt
* Horizontal Interrupt
* All rasters effects
* Highlight/Shadow effects
* Interlaced mode
- Raw binary (.bin) and interleaved (.smd) ROM format support.
- GZip, Zip and 7-Zip compressed file format support.
- YM2612 emulation core by Stef.
- PSG emulation.
- SDL Dreamcast implementation by Chui.
- The sound is being emulated but not output yet, though.
- On-screen menu.
Finally, I would like to thank Chui and Stef for everything they have accomplished to make this a reality.
The sources and binary for the DC can be found here:
http://chui.dcemu.co.uk/releases/gen...ew-src.tar.bz2
http://chui.dcemu.co.uk/releases/gen...ha-preview.rar (unscrambled, for DemoMenu, dchakker)
http://www.dcemu.co.uk/vbulletin/att...8&d=1205164538 (scrambled for selfbooting, with /data/ folder)
Cheers.

Tyne is still working on his rather awesome QUake Mod for the Dreamcast called The Ascension Of Vigil, but calling it a Quake Mod doesnt do it justice its more of a game in its own rights.
He has posted a new screen which ive mirrrored via comments, check it out.

Dont Worry if you see anything strange on our DC News (thats the Dreamcast Site to viewers on the DCEmu Main Portal) im working on updating the site to the new design and bringing back the pages of emulators and homebrew and finally ditching that godaweful files download system that has caused us grief for too long.
- Update -
Just went through 2 years of releases and added the links to the site, was quite a nice experiance to go over all the releases 
Next job on my agenda is to bring all of DC Homebrews releases to this site.
From Now on we will be back to having Dreamcast News as it appears. lets show the other homebrew scenes that the Dreamcast is still the best console homebrew scene.

UPDATE - PROVEN TO BE A SCAM.
Sadly Sega dont own the domain and the company that does have affiliate links and are using the domain to get your emails and more, check via comments for all the detailed information, lets hope Sega Kick their arses. Do not give your email to these people.
It seems that SEGA of Japan just updated their Dreamcast website at Dreamcast.com
By clicking on this image, you'll be taken to dreamcast.com/apps/ucp.php
Dreamcast users can register there with a user account for their console's serial number and will get an account @user.dreamcast.com.
The image linked to above is called "dc_promo_2008" which obviously hints to the fact that SEGA might be celebrating the 10th birthday of the Dreamcast this year.
If you ever wanted to show SEGA that you are still out there playing your Dreamcast, now is the time!
