    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Btw, i didn't have the time to say it up until now but if you wish to sell the demo in a compilation disc, you can go ahead. The enhanced version will still take some time to make unfortunately but i do hope to complete it by the end of this year.

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Well it's playable but a bit barebones on content. it's a simple game after all. The CD-i folks asked me to redo this game (i also did a CD-i port) with multiplayer. Given that both the CD-i and NUON share a common screen resolution, i think that's the route i'm going to take. That said, i'm not...

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Good news guys : Edge Connector finally cracked the keys and he signed Killminds for me. He was able to confirm the game does work on real hardware this way : The CD image will still be kept for the RCA models (which can't run NUON software except homebrew games) but if you own a Samsung...

    Authentication tools for the Nuon

    So i tried to get further so we could eventually boot homebrew games on DVD and earlier units like the Toshiba SD3200 which is a bit more common than the Samsungs units. Anyway, while i made a bit more progress, i am stuck again. The authenfication tools on Dragon Industries said the passphrase...

    Looking for Nuon Games?

    Btw, i hope BustAMove 4 could be leaked someday... (just for curiosity sakes) And while the homebrew scene is not as bad as the CD-i or Hyperscan ones, it's still pretty dead... Still, i'm trying to look into it again and the signing tools. But kind of a shame it's hard to find one.

    Nuance 0.5.0 Source and VM Labs Authentication Tools

    Well as for the authentication tools, they do not work properly on a modern linux distro. The reason for that is because when i use the password provided in the DOC file, it does not work at all. (says passphrase is invalid or something like that) That or gnupg works best if i run it on an old...

    Sci/Tech Google kills off the Captcha, ensuring humans don't need to see the most annoying thing on the inter

    As a Jondo and Tor user, i can tell you that Google's reCaptcha is well and alive. (as of now) It's still a huge pain in the ass, which often leads me to using alternatives like Duckduckgo or Startpage.

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Nope, the passphrase provided with the leaked documents is wrong and i'm unable to properly sign my games. Plus, i don't really own one. Sorry

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Of course it was not going to work, i need to sign it in order for it to work... The ISO file was for homebrew compatible NUON players, not the N2000 or the Toshiba 2300. Unfortunely, the passphrase provided the authentication tools is actually wrong so i may need to brute-force it. Thanks...

    Turns out the ISO file was not correctly formatted so i fixed this.

    Replacement laser for Samsung N501

    I would be actually surprised if NUONs were using proprietary parts, as doing so would increase the cost. One thing you could do is to open it up and take some pictures of it. (and try to remove the laser lens to see how many pins it has)

    Replacement laser for Samsung N501

    maybe you could try to scavenge some lasers from old DVD drives ? Maybe your PC laser will work just fine, after all, any generic CD-ROM laser will fit inside the Dreamcast's GD-ROM. Just give it a try

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Hey, thanks doctorclu for testing the game on real hard ! Now i know that it does work on a real NUON, which is great, as they are pretty hard to find.... Wish i could get my hands on a Toshiba S2300 or a Samsung N2000 so i can test the signing feature properly. Unless someone wants to share me...

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    Hello cdoty, good thing you're still around ! No, i ended up running the binairies on my linux pc. (couldn't compile them) Yes, they still work after 14 years... However, i don't even have a nuon game so i don't know how i should lay out my game. It's probably not working... (or not enough)

    New Nuon homebrew - KillMinds

    I was able to sign my homebrew, which means that you should be able to run it on the Samsung Extiva DVD-N2000 and the Toshiba SD2300. You must burn the KILLMINDS-UDF.iso file to a DVD-R. I have also provided an iso image called KILLMINDS.iso for players capable of running homebrews. Let me know...
