Re: Dreamcast Magazine

Hi, I remember some time ago, could be years now, I paid a pre-order for a dreamcast mag someone on the forum was producing himself. Never got it though, or a refund either, anyone know what happened bout this? Was it a complete scam, cause I seem to remember the guy being pretty awkward in his rea...

Re: Heliophobe

What a tragedy. It's so sad that he passed away at such a young age. All my thoughts and prayers are with Nicolas Warren's family.

Your work will always be fondly remembered, Heliophobe. May you rest in peace.

Re: Baba Amte, Dedicated to Helping Lepers, Dies at 93

Speaking of totally amazing, when did you get back!? :o I just started posting again yesterday. The two year sabbatical really did good for me. I got my real life straightened around, so now I'm going to try to do the same for my online life. Since DCEmulation was like a surrogate family to me, as ...

Baba Amte, Dedicated to Helping Lepers, Dies at 93

Baba Amte, who gave up his family's wealth to dedicate his life to helping lepers, died Feb. 9 at his shelter for leprosy patients in the Indian state of Maharashtra, the New York Times said, citing his son Dr. Vikas Amte. Amte, 93, was a lawyer influenced by Mohandas "Mahatma'' Gandhi's ideals...

You should be OK with releasing it to the public since it was meant to be in the minigames division. Check with Dan Loosen first though, just to be on the safe side.

Many of us put in so many long hours of our free time to push petitions, and now we fear that he never even sent them out if this is the kind of route he likes to take to "solve" problems. If you'll remember, I did at least one of those petitions myself. I set up the page on Dreamcast-Sce...

I have betrayed so many people, and I know I can never be forgiven. I'm going to give up my position at every site that I work for. I don't deserve it at all. I'll try my best to do the right thing by you guys, but I don't deserve your respect. I really have proven myself to be a jackass. And, darc ...

An open apology and admission of guilt

APE was right. I am like Reaper. I lied about getting the magazines done and shipping them. That never happened. This is tearing me apart inside, and I felt I had to come clean. The truth is, life came crumbling in towards me and I spent the money. My grandfather was suffering from alzeigmer's, my m...

Honestly, I just removed my number, so I removed the other numbers. Then I removed the logo. It's my need for perfection and need for symmetry due to my Asperger's Syndrome. It's really a curse sometimes - I honestly wasn't trying to be sneaky or anything. Here's the original with just my number rem...

If you can supply me with proof of either; print cost, shipping costs or any other costs you made to get this magazine out; you can keep the money, I don't care for the couple of bucks I paid, I just want them to be put to use in getting this magazine out, be it now or later. :bouncegrin: http://ww...

#1, I think this is a great idea and the best way to keep the magazine going on a regular basis. If you are planning on taking user generated stuff, I'll be happy to write an article at some point (although I'm very slow with these, so it may be a long time :( ) Definitely. That was one of my bigge...

Dream On Magazine refunds, free magazines, and the future

OK, since I screwed this whole thing up royally since I announced that I was taking preorders back in October, I'm going to be making the best of the situation by proving to everyone that I am not "scamming" or "fleecing" anyone, and that I am not in this for the money. I'm refun...

My name fits me today. I feel like a complete dumbass. I've looked and looked, and I can't find the magazines. I also can't find the magazines (newsletters) that were made up for the Midwest Gaming Classic 2004. If I find one or both in the future, I'll do pictures and scans of them, as I'm taking t...

I'm not going to release any screenshots for Sweet Dreams, as that's mainly Christuserloeser's work.

I'll leave it up to him if he wants to release some.

Re: Frequently Asked Questions

I am a bit worried about this part. I think ALL Dreamcasts are actually compatible with homebrew on a CDR. Otherwise they wouldn't work with Audio-CDs too. I personally had a Dreamcast that didn't boot from CD media. I never checked the audio CDs, but they could have just as easily prevented CDs fr...

Hi all. Some good news and some bad news. The good news is that MrSiggler and I are working towards 0.1.0 and we expect it to be finished Real Soon Now (tm). The bad news is that my Dreamcast is broken. It's been struggling for a few days and today it finally broke down... the good way, with smoke ...
