Xash3D (Half-Life compatible engine) port

[Sonic1994DC]

Well, this is a bit of self-advertisement.
I’m currently working on porting xash to Dreamcast, so our Dreamcast brothers can have proper half life with mod support and net play.

Currently in early stages, this is running on 32MB RAM with SDL 1.2 and gldc.
Project roadmap:
Implement properly accelerated rendering via gldc
Multiplayer (via modem or BBA)
Mod support with custom code (dlls).

A few screenshots are:

Finally more BBA supported games. Love it, plus mic support will be awesome to see

I was wondering if mic support could even be supported last night. Man would love to see that!

Minor updates:
Currently I’m working on saving memory, since some tex and models doesn’t fit to VRAM (I am saying about PC assets), for HLDC models renderer needs to be modified for support PVR textures, since I’m noob at rendering and OpenGL stuff, it will become a while, but if someone wants to help me. Here’s git repo.

@maximqad, if I understand well, he's looking for testers.

Hi! Thanks! MP is basically playable and could be tested on 32 MB. Unfortunately SP campaign is running of VRAM, but could be played if resolution is down to 320x240.
