I had some problems with my 3D models for
#GTA3
#Dreamcast
and the amazing DragonFF plugin made by Parik27 (a big THANK YOU to him! 🙏)
So to make a 3D model compatible with
#regta3dc
you must export it in 3.2.0.0 and not in 3.3.0.2 (before tristriping)

@falco_girgis
I wrote a script to identify 3D models with fewer polygons on
#GTA3
PS2, results:
Out of 3,138 3D models, only 97 were replaced (3.09%). Not much, but this reduced the total triangle count by 15,593 👍

Even if the base of the code is a decompilation and not the original R* code, the logic behind the streaming system, the LOD management, the weather, data storage, the spawning of pedestrians/cars and so much more, it's simply magnificent 🤩

GTA 3 for Mac PowerPC needs only one CD😉
I read this kind of argument based on media sizes very often but people should stop believing that developers overloaded DVDs with data😆
Btw Resident Evil 2 on N64 is on a 64MB cartridge while the game on PS1 is on two CDs🤪
Two years before the first Tony Hawk's on PS1, Sega released Top Skater, a groundbreaking arcade game with a unique skateboard controller! 🛹
Sadly, it was never ported to the Saturn 😔

Day and night, Diablo on PS1 ran at 240p, while on Dreamcast it will be in 480p, just like the PC version 😎
However, the best feature of the PS1 port is clearly its couch co-op mode⚔️
@ObbeVermeij
It's so exciting to hear about how things were back in the day from someone so involved in the development.
Thank you for taking the time to explain all this
