I have had this stuff in my garage for 10 years, bought it from a stange fellow I met on UUSENET in early -97 if I recall correctly. The box went into storage and was forgotten untill I stumbled upon it yesterday. There's two PsyQ manuals, one huge binder several CDs and floppies. The PsyQ manuals are: CD Emulator Manual for Saturn and System Manual for Sega Saturn The huge binder contains loads of info, standard Staurn dev. manual, master disc release forms, communications between Sega and ALG, hand written notes, faxes, emails etc. The CDs and floppies contains source code for Saturn, PC and Arcade versions of ALG games. I belive the complete source code and a complete beta disc of CrimePatrol for Sega Saturn is included. Nops, sorry, I don't have a Saturn so I can't test the CD. I have taken quite a few pictures. http://picasaweb.google.com/axtelius/ALG?authkey=V-4hcYwGxDU Below is the contens of the CDs and some of the floppies + other interestin info. /frax ------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Franks C-drive Read without errors. Couldn't find any source for the console versions but PC and Arcade source for Crime Partol 1 and 2 and other ALG projects. CD1 contains 476 .CPK and one CP.SCN, all read 100% ok. CD2, same as CD1 but no CP.SCN, didn't try to read it. CP 9/23, Made an image, no errors. CP 9/25 Read 100% ok. I don't know much about Saturn and what files are supposed to be there. Here is a list, *.cpk exkluded. If you look at the images (link above) there is a bump of the ip.bin <pre> Directory of D:\ALG\CP 9-25\Files 1996-09-25 08:13 205 076 0 1996-09-25 08:13 91 048 1MENU.CPK 1996-09-25 08:13 91 016 2MENU.CPK 1996-09-25 08:13 10 BOOTSND.MAP 1996-09-25 08:13 65 536 CP.PVD 1996-09-25 08:13 105 784 CP.SCN 1996-09-25 08:13 45 438 CP.SCR 1996-09-25 08:13 12 786 DO.BAT 1996-09-25 08:13 15 288 GUNSOUND.TON 1996-09-25 08:13 5 116 IP.BIN 1996-09-25 08:13 25 556 SDDRVS.TSK 1996-09-25 08:13 248 STATE.RST 488 File(s) 474 133 250 bytes 2 Dir(s) 11 426 193 408 bytes free </pre> Floppies Yep, about 15 which where not SEGA standard dev. tools where found. I copied the to my hard drive and here's what I found, except for a few bootsector viruses Source code for the Sega version of Mad Dog or Crime Patrol. They have borrowed routines from each other so I can't really tell. Im guessing Saturn and CP. One more floppy with Source, similar to the one above A zip, CP090496.ZIP, containing what a backup of the source for Crime Patrol Saturn. Contents similar to the two floppies above. More and more CP backups, dating from 090496 to 091396. Varius textfiles with info and emails from Sega DTS Support. A floppy with Crime Patrol, Mad Dog2 and Space Pirates soruce code. I assume thoose are PC versions. All floppies except one, marked Oracle, read perfectly.
Cool find! (especially cool find in your garage! ) I'm sure some Saturn people on here would love to take a look at the sources and stuff. Any plans on releasing or selling this stuff?
wow, it would be really good to see how Mad Dog and Crime Patrol would have looked on the saturn and whether it would use the VCD cart etc..
Having said that I just did a google search for Crime Patrol for the Saturn, I've found several sites that said it was released?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Sega_Saturn_games http://www.esrb.org/ratings/search.jsp?content=Sexuality&javaScript=0&platforms=Sega+Saturn&rating= Whats all that about? Just incorrect info??
Yeah, there's tons of bad info on the Saturn out there (and other formats, of course). Some sites even still have their lists based on forthcoming release lists, and hence give a price for games like Return Fire!
