    I received the dev docs today but I haven't looked through them yet. Have to go get some binders for the mountain of paper first.

    That white M2 looks sweet! They were probably the empty ones. I wonder how many of those were made?

    thanks for that info zappenduster, just downloading the movie now. It's just a shame that we never saw anything as far as real games go. I'd love to see Warps D2 in action.

    Yea you got a more complete one than mine. With the middle joystick adapter! There also appears to be a headphone jack on the bottom.

    I've been looking through the dev docs and I can't find anything about the BIOS : (

    i found at least 2 bios i think one was on the floppy with the cdriver 3.5" one and the other is some where on the cd of the 3.0 toolkit

    btw. we did talk about the pcmcia drive on one of the m2s heres what i found from short looking into the manuals:
    important word is flashrom OR pc card so there is maybe a way to flash the one real m2 with a debug bios =)

    Hmm...interesting. I wonder how you get the data on the PCMCIA card? On a PC it would be no problem but I have never owned a Mac. I still have to get a 8100 series.
    I can't use the dev CDROM so that is probably why I can't find any BIOS information.

    I noticed that Lingjr. put his M2 dev environment back up on ebay. Looks like the deal fell through. He probably wouldn't have a problem selling the lot if he accepted more payment options than Western Union. I wish he would sell everything separate because all I need is the card and cable.

    You might be able to some day. There is at least one copy of D2 out there.

    you dont need a mac to read the cd just search the web for a program that reads mac cds under windows (or linux if you prefer) i for example used transmac

    on the cd you find mostly code examples and the whole handbook which you have in paper but i think its a little older then the printed one

    oh and which cable do you miss ? to my controller i got also some cables which where from the sellers old m2 setup maybe i can help you

    Cool. I'm downloading Transmac now. The cable I need is the Nubus card to M2 dev unit.

    That sounds like the right cable. The Transmac program isn't working for me. Can't read the disc for some reason. Gonna try a different program.

    you have to insert the disc and then somehow mount it in the lower window wasnt really easy to findout (there was a tutorial or so at the homepage of the programm i think)
    but it worked very nice =)

    Thanks bnwim :smt023 that one worked fine. D2 on the M2 sure does look as if it's pulling off better visuals than the Saturn or PSX could. It seems to be moving at a good frame rate too. I wonder just how many frames it ran at? One day I hope this game comes to the fans. By the way, what ever happened to WARP after they became Super WARP? Surly they would have infor about the M2 version of D2 on their site (if they had one).

    Warp ... they didn't announce a new game after D2 and disappeared. Warp had two webs, but neither of them are online now:

    Also i think that they canned that version of D2 while on the m2 and had already started to work on the Dreamcast version ON the m2.

    Either that or they had some very very early versions of the DC kit.
