25 years into Dreamcast homebrew, we finally have a clear path to programming AICA’s DSP in C. AICAflow puts AICA to work as a standalone audio processor that handles music playback, dynamic SFX and multiple simultaneous DSP effects.

I’m looking for alternatives to @ubiquiti.bsky.social that can match them technically but have a stronger ethical track record regarding Russia’s war against Ukraine. If you’ve switched away from @ubiquiti.bsky.social, what did you move to and how has it worked out?

I'm wondering if the PowerVR CLX2 in the Dreamcast can do triangle fans? I know it slows down on degenerated triangle strips, but what if all the even numbered vertices in this strip had the same coordinates? Would every other triangle being a little bit degenerated cause problems?

I’m almost certain Trump didn’t write this, it lacks his usual ‘flair’ of unhinged gramppa shouting at clouds in the most narcissistic way possible.

If you aren't already following along with the development of dRxLaX, you should check it out! It's one of the hottest, most highly anticipated upcoming original homebrew titles for the Sega Dreamcast!
22+ years ago I made a small multiplayer game on the Dreamcast. The younger me had big plans for what the game should be. Plans that were first postponed, then forgotten. I was recently reminded of and got the opportunity to begin realising those plans: y2u.be/Caa4A6y7fvI

All pressure on Ukraine.
Zero pressure on Russia.
