3DO Development Repo

This page is read only. You can view the source, but not change it. Ask your administrator if you think this is wrong.
This site is dedicated to all things related to 3DO and M2 development. From information on the hardware to homebrew tutorials. There is still a lot we plan to upload but if you have anything we're missing feel free to create an account and contribute or [[:contact|]] us.

==== TODO / Ideas ====

  * [[:software:emulation_improvement_opportunities|libretro Opera improvement opportunities]]
  * new tooling
      * create / split 3DO Stream files
      * weaver replacement (see FFMPEG todos below)
      * build with modern compiler suite (ARMv3 and AIF binary format)
  * homebrew
      * open source firmware / BIOS
      * tool to query 3DO hardware (in progress)
      * port of the 240p test suite
      * benchmarking tool to compare different models and emulators and attempt to determine accuracy
      * tool to transfer ROM & NVRAM without special hardware (via video or audio (Bell 202 AFSK?))
      * a video player to replace PlayMovie from Doom (based on NuPlayer?) to enable simpler video playback
      * port games
        * Open Tyrian 2000
        * Wolf3D
        * Rise of the Triad
        * Jaguar games?
  * recreate / port 3DO operating system API to modern system
  * Add support to FFMPEG for 3DO compatible Cinepak encoding, SDX2 encoding, and "DataStream" mux and demuxer so that ffmpeg alone could be used to create 3DO video and audio streams.
