A Sega former employee, maybe ? The XTreme proto with Nights engine (or 718 proto) was selled by a former employee who leaved Sega in 1997. Or at least that's what he sayed (http://sost.emulationzone.org/sonic_xtreme_718/betafind/index.htm)
I think yes but the only video we have from this event is the demo video (which was just a trailer). A magazine scan could help us, but I don't even know if a magazine made a report from this 1996 E3... Sonic Cult may have some scans from that ???
even when i changed the region from japan to europe, i still can't do the swap for some reason. and i already tried it with other games and it worked. can anyone help me with this please? thanks. btw, where can i get the mod chip? i read somewhere swapping isn't good because it wears out the motor of the saturn's cd reader.
what also isn't good are the bad and cheap cd-r's .... have that also in mind... is quite something rare it doesn't work on your saturn!!!!! anyone can know why?? well, back to topic, i think that the search for more protos must never stop, in fact of course the 1996 e3 thing..
no, that isn't the problem, i only use tdk cds, i think their even better than sony and phillips. one thing i noticed, is that saturn cds usually work better if they are recorded in speed 4x. Not 4x in particular, it's just that normally i burn them at 52x, the maximum my cd burner can record, 4x is the minimum.
Yay, the Saturn don't like that, even if it's a very good lens (it can read even very scratched CDs) only the 4x speed burned CDs can be read ... but I don't know why.
It all depends upon what disc you use. I've burnt a game at x52 speed that worked. To be honest though you shouldn't really write faster than x4 anyway if you want to avoid errors. I do all DVD burmning at x2.5 speed and CDs at x4 Yakumo
I write Saturn ISOs at 1x(!) because I use an old demo of CDRwin. Always works and I really don't care that much if takes half an hour, plenty of stuff to do in the mean time.
yes, what i meant is that i usually burn cds at 52, but i discovered that sega saturn only work at 4x. anyway it still doesn't work for some reason, and i tried other games and they worked. Anyway, i found it suspicious that the download only had 20 mb, even for a prototype i think thats too small.
The Jade gully proto was released, I've played it on my US saturn. But does any one know where the Crystal Frost one from youtube is. I was looking forward to the fish eye lense... I'm not ungrateful or anything I love this as a piece of gaming history.:icon_bigg CF: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wzvS_beXtXk
Mmmm i think it's gonna be really hard to come to other sonic x-treme protos, but who knows... just a 1996 e3 thing...
I know this post is very old... but is there any other download link, like a mirror? Piratebay is blocked in my country thanks
