Would this mean that it would be possible to port over the Times Exclusive level to Dreamcast?

Is that what it was called? I was asking Ian about that last week, he said he got Finished Business fully working but I, for the life of me could not remember what company was worked with to release that other PC exclusive level. Glad to know it is Time. I knew I saw something else out there besides Unfinished Business that was on PC. But yes, it should work too. When they were working with the PSX version assets, it was limited to 14 rooms, on this latest version using PC assets it is increased to 20 rooms. So way less limitations with this engine now. Mods are possible and this engine will open up a lot of possibilities for modding and making all new experiences on Dreamcast.

Edit: Wait, that was made for TR4 not TR1. So that is gonna be a no from me. TR2 and TR3 are still not fully implemented in this engine yet, and even if they are, they might need a lot more thinking outside the box to optimize assets for DC so it works within the limited memory. I am hopeful for even TR4 and TR5 ports so they are more modable than what the Windows CE ports we have now are, not to mention possibility for better optimizations since not all that overhead that Windows Used up.

We don't have FMV more than we have
at the moment FMV works so badly that it's better to turn it off

I had a lot of troubles, I got sick with omicron and I don’t have a normal Internet, due to heavy snowfall, fiber optic lines broke in many places, including mine, and now it’s not known when everything will be restored
