OKAY, FIIIINE! It's true! The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is now actively being ported to the Sega Dreamcast!!!! Here's a direct hardware capture I LITERALLY just barely took of me testing out a bunch of optimizations I'm making to the matrix routines using my SH4 accelerated SH4ZAM library. This port was started and is currently being led by a total chad who was always joking that he'd do the legwork to get the port started for jnmartin, who was never particularly interested in OoT, despite the desperate pleas from the fans... Mr. Chad knew that jnmartin wouldn't be able to resist jumping in and helping with the port once the initial work was done... aaaand he was 100% right! 🤣 While Mr. Chad, OoT leader prefers to remain anonymous (so people can't bitch at him over bugs or pressure him to hurry up), he and jnmartin have been working their asses off to get the port this far... to the point of the entire game being mostly playable with occasional graphical glitches or crashes here and there... Oh... and don't mind me... I'm late to the party, but I figured I'd jump in and do my thing, SH4ZAM-ing up and optimizing the vectors, matrices and math, especially for the more complex animations and skinning in this port!

the sega Saturn is the most slept on game system of all time
