New "DLC" coming to 4X4 Evo

[Anthony817]

You read that right. We are going to get new cars and hopefully tracks in 4X4 Evo for our Dreamcast! The game is a Windows CE game, so it is so close to the PC version that we can mod it similar to the way we mod Half-Life on Dreamcast. I only seen car mods in GTA on teh original Xbox, so this is a pretty big advancement to our thriving homebrew and modding community.

Check this new Jeep mod out.

cptPauer, the creator of the mod is taking suggestions, so if there are new cars you would like to see on the Dreamcast, or new music you would like to see included in the game speak now of forever hold your peace.

You can find car mods here.

So does that mean that Tony Hawk maps are a potential? Both the Tony Hawk games on DC run using WindowsCE as well.

Well somebody at Dreamcast-Talk told me his friend tried this about 4 years ago and couldn't get the new PC maps to work.

If that don't happen new trucks and music is at least a possibility.

It would be pretty damn funny seeing TH maps in here, but kinda pointless. I guess you could try grinding a Jeep on the half pipe.

Oh I don't mean for 4X4. I mean new maps for the TH games.

Yeah, that would be strange.

I am sire you could. Do you mean adding them from the newer games in the series to the DC version?

Heck, somebody added the Gravity Gun from Half-Life 2 into the Dreamcast version of the game, and it looked pretty good. It was a very high poly model too.

I wonder if there are any mods out there for Sega Rally 2 on PC? Cause it was one of teh only Sega produced Windows CE games.

4x4 Evo is one of the few games that you can still play online with, and it is a blast if you get it working.

It sucks for me cause this is truly a game I really do love on the Dreamcast and wished I could play it online against some PC opponents.

Now we can have car mods like they do online on our consoles.

If anyone wants to test the game, here's CDI image - http://www.multiupload.com/9URH3PVK0V

v0.1.2b =) - video, logos, yadpcm, CDDA and levels test.
-used now english version of game. (Snesorama is rock))
-added new intro video (just for fun. This is a test of video playback). Downloaded it from youtube.
-added new CDDA music from Rock'n'Roll racing and Road Rush (just for fun. this is a test of CDDA. Will be replaced. Is that if you like it ..). On some music tracks put voice of Larry (like "Let's carnage begin..")
-added new logos (They are terrible, I know. This is for test.)
-added new menus music (some are repeated. This is just a test too. Rock'n'Roll racing, Asphalt PSP, Road Rush)
-added new checkpoint sound as in MTM2. If I put the correct voice (I'm not sure. I have 4 of them) this is the final version.
-added new truck - the good old Jeep Wrangler YJ (I did not create it, if that)
-added new custom map - CRAZY 2011 =D Just to check if that possible, do not expect much from it.
It turned out pretty nice, so I decided to post the link.

If someone has downloaded and will play on Dreamcast, then tell us about bugs with music and textures. My blank discs have been completed =( If not Makaron...
