Re: Region Changer 1.5

Also, has anyone ever dumped the bios from a Hello Kitty model Dreamcast? I heard a rumour that this particular model is region free. Obviously, that's a pretty wild accusation, but I'd like to be sure. Can anyone confirm or shoot this down?

Re: Region Changer 1.5

Ok I did some tests using the hacked hkt0120 bios and the regions: Bad news here, setting the region value to 00 does indeed change the swirl colour to blue and the region itself HOWEVER the region is NOT PAL, it is an unknown/unset region, thus no cd-r (JUE) will run with the region setting as 00....

Re: Official DC Overclocking thread

Not that it matters now, I went ahead with the overclocking with assistance for completion and I was able to first-hand sample Sega Rally 2 OC'ed. The difference is noticeable, but the frame-dropping isn't completely removed. I will say regardless of the short-falls of the Dreamcast/WinCE port, it's...

Re: Official DC Overclocking thread

This might be a strange question, but does anyone have footage and or willing to upload footage of Sega Rally 2 running on an OC'ed DC? This alone is my reason to go through with the OC, but I'd want to be sure it removes some of the frame dropping and or the horrible fps in general.

My question relates to chaoticj's, and believe he bought a 2pin oscillator, like me. Looks like this

Is it still possible to OC with this?

Hello I just joined here to pose a particular question regarding the region bios switching. Namely, with the possibility of using the DevBox bios which from what I know is region-free. Is there any possibility this could work and if someone could make a region-switch boot disc containing said bios? ...
