82-T/A Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I've been developing for 17 years across a number of platforms and dozens of languages... but I've never developed for the Jaguar. I did modify some original game code for a 2600 game... heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian R. Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 (edited) You know, it's not what you're saying, it's how you're saying it. This was your first comment, no other explanation, no embellishment, no clarification, no quantification. Unless you have Asperger's or something, a statement like this just makes you sound like a douche right off the bat. Are you actually surprised that current coders would be rubbed the wrong way by this? You were either trying to stir things up or there's simply something wrong with your interpersonal skills. Edit: Please let this end. I have no desire to see this continue or participate in it. This forum is toxic and I will stay out of it. Edited April 15, 2014 by Brian R.

Albert Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Please guys get back on topic, and if I see any more insults being thrown about, I'll kick those users out of this thread. Thanks, ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 How about we just go back to the original topic of the thread, which I'm pretty sure was about a mysterious Atari Jaguar project that Songbird Productions has listed on their site, hmm? I think it's just a placeholder for any potential project that Songbird comes across. I don't think there is anything really in the works at the moment. I do hope that I'm wrong, though. There is a specific project, but it requires my time to write and debug code so it's been on the shelf for several years. It's obviously taken much longer than I anticipated, so I'm leaving it as a mystery game until I can get back to this and convince myself it's close enough to release that it will really happen. The only other thing I will say is it's a sequel of sorts but even that's not totally accurate. Beyond that, I do still occasionally get leads on lost games, but I don't have anything imminent in the pipe at the moment. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isgoed Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Carl, if you don't pick up the "leads", are those abandoned forever then, or do you acquire these anyway if only for preservation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides Crystal Mines for the NDS? Nothing at the moment, although I was actually working on E______ W____ for the Jaguar a few days ago. Just ran out of time to have it ready for the show. ...or was that just something to throw people off the scent? :0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Yes, that's the same one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 "Leads" doesn't necessarily mean "prototype games." It often means I get a contact of someone who knows someone that used to do graphics for a game company that no longer exists, but that guy still knows the programmer/owner/etc. So it's not like I'm sitting on a large cache of unpublished games that only I get to see. That was true back in the day, but not so much now. Except for some Lynx games, of course, meaning Mechtiles, Ultra Vortek, and some unused CyberVirus assets... and I guess Virtual VCS for the Jaguar. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh3-rg Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 OK, so more pieces of the puzzle :0) It's E______ W____ and not really a sequel of sorts! This is going to bug me for weeks again like last time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 and I guess Virtual VCS for the Jaguar. Oh wow! I tried to get the two known emulators working and failed. I'd love to write some games for an Atari 2600 compilation on the Jaguar though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovalbugmann Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I really hope Carl will fix/finish and release Virtual VCS for the Jaguar!, that would be great man!, to play 2600 titles on the Jaguar. it would be the Jaguar's first emulator, I believe. Bring on the Virtual VCS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Pretty sure I brought this up before, but I remember reading BITD that the Jaguar was to be compatible with Lynx games too. Envisioned this Power Base Converter type thing that fit atop and had a Lynx card slot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+remowilliams Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I really hope Carl will fix/finish and release Virtual VCS for the Jaguar!, that would be great man! I dunno, with all the never ending nonsense about 'pushing' the Jaguar like its some kind of magic friction free 18 wheeled bin, I think some peoples heads will fly clean f*cking off if they see 2600 games on it... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
