The Ascension of Vigil, Tyne's Quake brawling mod, has been updated again. Here's what's new:[br][br]- Fixed up menu sprites so they're dimensions of 2, this means menu.bsp now loads and works on Dreamcast.[br]- A bunch of new sound effects for monsters, I got tired of hearing regular quake sounds; almost all quake sound effects are replaced.[br]- Tweaked the Wall Jump, it allows Vigil to jump higher and farther & The Wall Jump Kick has been tweaked so it's easier to aim and always moves forward (older one would eventually slow down..)[br]- Completely recoded the physics for smacking enemies around[br]- Completely recoded the way air combos work, it's now smoother and works overall better (This change and the one above haven't affected gameplay that much..)[br]- Found a bug that a person can take advantage of to have infinite lives. When you're dead and Vigil hasn't landed on the ground the user can backflip out of it in mid-air and remain in an undead state similar to the corpse bug, fixed![br]- Rewrote some of the fireball spells code, it's perfect now.[br]- Improved Monster AI, they can also all run now![br]- Another AI improvement now gives monsters magic attacks as demonstrated by the Hell Knight. He's now a completely done monster![br]- The Ascension of Vigil now has a final score displayed when you finally hit game over[br]- More attractive game over text[br][br]Download Here

Its not often i'd post news like this, but the rumour mills are running, with the "Explosive announcemnt" from Sega at this years E3......[br][br]Sega has invited all press visiting E3 to attend a special event as soon as the show doors open, where an "explosive announcement" will be made. Understandably, the press has jumped all over the opportunity, and now you can't even RSVP to get there.[br][br]The most obvious conclusion to what will be made public is Sega's return to the hardware market. The Dreamcast, Sega's last foray into the console wars, was unquestionably a success in terms of the quality of its games. However, the Dreamcast was by no means a success in sales, which led the company into becoming a third party developer. Without a doubt, there are many who would love to see Sega develop a new console. But with the market becoming as oversaturated as it is, it may not be the best time for Sega to trek back into hardware.[br][br]There is the possibility that the announcement will have nothing to do with an impending return to hardware. Even though, Sega has undoubtedly created quite the buzz leading into E3. But if it has nothing to do with hardware, then what could it be?[br][br]Source: RPGGamer.[br][br]Give your thoughts on this via our forums

After a long discussion with burnerO, DCStuff has learned that he is beginning work on the next Selfboot Inducer. The staff at DCStuff is very excited to announce this news.[br]In addition, burnerO has developed a new template for DreamInducer themes, so that artists no longer need to deal with coding XML files.[br]To help promote the new template, and the development of the next Selfboot Inducer, burnerO, in conjunction with DCStuff, is holding a contest to find the next "default" theme for Selfboot Inducer. More information can be found in the official topic in the News Board of the DCStuff forums.

From their site:[br]Today, Dreamcast-Scene went online again, after there were no action happening on the main side of it for months (see our history what happend in the meanwhile). We also present you a brandnew website with state of the art XHTML, a powerful PmWiki and phpBB system in the background and the possibity for everyone to submit new content or edit it in the news, database, scene and lifestyle pages![br][br]But our motto "power to the people" also means a lot of responsibility for the active sceners who want to contribute articles on Dreamcast-Scene: Keep an eye on the text formatting rules, correcting grammar and misspellings of the non-native English spreakers, act for the collective good and don't fake, spam, delete or adulterate articles or news.[br][br]Remember: Dreamcast-Scene is a non-profite project and many people sacrifices time and money for it to make it as good as possible.[br][br]And now, let the scene rise again![br][br]Dreamcast-Scene.com[br]

News shamelessly stolen from DChomebrew [br][br]The NTSC-UK.com Dreamcast tribute I mentioned a couple of weeks ago is still going strong, the latest article posted is one based on the DC homebrew scene & was written by Tom Salter & John Szczepaniak. The article mentions emulators like DreamSNES & the MAME ports and lots of different homebrew games like Cool Herders, Trampalien Gunmen & Maquipai amongst other things, and also features an interview with Dr Zoidberg (webmaster in charge of DCEmulation)[br]There has also been new reviews of games like Capcom vs SNK Millenium Fight 2000, Fire Pro Wrestling D (JPN), Space Channel 5 Part 2 & Samba De Amigo Ver.2000, you can check those out by visiting NTSC-UK.com's Dreamcast section.

Since April the 11th of this year when the site officially opened we are nearing the Million visitors (a few hundred away), to say the Dreamcast isnt a console supported commercially (with the odd exception) and also the fact that the Dreamcast scene already had 5 mainstream emulation/homebrew sites and any new site would face a massive uphill battle to get visitors to visit a new site, we have done well.[br][br]Originally started as a solo project of mine because of my frustration of the stagnancy of the Dreamcast scene and the lazyness of siteops to update their pages, i quickly found a site design off my friend James (webmaster of Xbox Rules.com), the design was from a site that never really got going so it was decided to use it for DCEmu UK.[br][br]Next part of my journey was to find the best host for this site, i contacted my friends Keith ( Emufanatics) and Passive (Emuhelp) and with thier help got in contact with Martin64 the admin of the Emulation64 Network, luckily for me he said yes to taking on a site that would need lots of space and bandwidth too.[br][br]Onto choosing a name for the site was next and there was so many that to choose from that i decided to keep the name short and sweet so the name DCEmu UK was born, although we would gladly love the Dreamcast.com .net domains .[br][br]So in March i started the task of finding every emulator for download and so began the massive task of finding every emulator released for the Dreamcast, in that month i told a couple of close friends about the project and Soully and LyonHrt came aboard to help me with this site and also to help with the as yet unseen v2 of our site.[br][br]Which leads me nicely to the day we opened and since then its been a great ride with high moments being the amazing 13,000 visitors in one day, the 5 slashdots, the amazing interviews, the hosting of Chui and forums, the joining together of the International Dreamcast scenes.[br][br]My thanks to all these people so far in helping this site, LyonHrt, Soully, Darksaviour69, Wacko, Captain Skyhawk, Martin 64, Keith, Passive, DCDayDreamer, Curt Grymala, Dr Zoidberg, Hawq, Metafox, Chui, Pablo, Talfi, Ron, Propellor, Christuserloeser, ace and many more.[br][br]Lets get to that 2nd Million asap

Storminator16 (Will Sams) has got Storm-studios.net back online! [br][br]but the bad news is Dreamgamer Show: Good idea, no time to execute[br]Will posted[br]It's just not going to happen via Storm! Studios, but I wish someone else picks up the idea. Honestly, I haven't even spoken to Chris since the first week I brought this idea up and I've been way to busy to do it anyway. With future endeavors to tie up my time even more I'm just going to have to let this boat sail. Feel free to discuss in the "Off Topic" forum.

SoftVMS 1.9, the emulator for the Dreamcast VMU, has been released in three flavors - source, AmigaOS binary and DC binary.[br][br]Here's what's new:[br][br][*]Now contains a port for the Dreamcast, so that you can play the games directly from the memory cards. Also supports saving (perfect for naming Chaos in SA2 .[br][*]Sound support (not implemented for (Win)DOS port).[br][*]AmigaOS4 support[br][*]Some minor bugfixes I think, it was a long time since the last release... :-9[br][*]Also, there is a working Netscape plugin for .LCD files included.[br][br]Thanks to sqrt(-1)+1 for the news.

Deeroc has updated his site yet again, with some really nice news:[br][br]"So the DC-RPG I’m working on has a working title now, Fantasy Tales. More then likely I’ll put up a poll closer to the release date to see what the gamers want this game to be called, but for now it’s Fantasy Tales.[br][br]I was monkeying around in Photoshop and was having fun tinkering with a menu, so I decided to rip through and develop a main menu system, which is working okay for the time being. I’m sure I’ll go through and optimize and edit it some more later as its a little bloated, but get the job done just fine. I’m “borrowing” a screenshot from some game found on the internet, but it will be replaced before the release is made."[br][br]Plus some nice screenshots of the wip.[br][br]For the complete newspost and the shots go to:[br]http://www.ryanwarner.org/~deeroc/
