My Saturn Dev Project

Hello!

I just joined this forum. Also, I am a member of the SegaXtreme forum. I am the founder of Saturn Team. I am developing a 3D third-person game for the Sega Saturn, which, eventually, I will sell worldwide. It is coded in C using the Jo Sega Saturn Engine. I will also be designing a new game console, which is a follow-up to the Saturn, and will be a fan-made sister console to the Dreamcast. I am planning on making it backwards compatible with Saturn. Additionally, I am developing the premiere first-party title for the new system, which is a third-person game made with Unreal Engine 4. Feel free to check out my site in the link above, and to join my forum, which includes the Unofficial Jo Sega Saturn Engine Forum. Thanks!

 

Very ambitious .

But to be honest I don't really see the need in creating an unofficial Jo Engine forum.
The official Jo Engine forum is not very active and could use all the support it can get.
Why not just direct your members to the official forum so that all Jo Engine discussions are in one place?

 

I was denied access (registration not accepted) to the official forum, twice (two different email addresses). That's why I set up my own.

 

Ah, I see.
Do you mind if I ask, was you denied access for any particular reason? Or was you just unable to register?

If you are developing a commercial game using the engine I am sure that it would be very useful having access to the forum. The developer seems very good at answering questions and adding new features on request.

Edit:
Just seen your edit
If you would like, I can message Johannes for you and let him know that you are having issues registering.

 

I don't know why. It certainly would be useful to join the forum. I would appreciate it if you could let him know. I registered with my personal iCloud email address on June 26th, and with my thesaturn.team email on October 15th. Thanks.

 

No problem.
I have just spoke with Johannes and he thinks CleanTalk may have been preventing the registration.
Could you send me a PM with the email address that you would like to register with?

 

I have finally gained access. Thanks! I will discontinue the unofficial forum, soon.

 

Now that sounds crasy. Do you have a decapper for VDP1/2 and other custom logic? Or maybe some old photolithographic masks from inside sources?
Or is this a software emulation you're talking about?
