Hello there, here's the real background history on how this all came together.
The Final, The Prequel, The Vanilla Timelines dubbed The New 42.
Wishful Mags, End The 28, Code Chronus, Action 28, All Bets Are Off, Vanilla Bonkers, 42 O'Clock, The New 42, Dive The 42, Fiction Of Life & Cursed Danger we truly are in the Prime Of This Series!
History is important, Real Knowledge is important and Archiving is also very important!
Way way way back around beginning off 2010, there was a certain Dead or Alive 2 mod available for the Dreamcast. Little did I know about modding myself. I'd read up on who was behind this golden treasure who was behind "Ultimate Edition"? His name was Mr. Green Ranger. After tracking him down on his YouTube channel. I questioned everything I could about the game. What should we all get playable for the next big mod update! Okay he was kind enough to answer me back to all my burning questions back then.
We got something going too, my request for a Dreamcast T-Shirt paid off much later on. I've found out he was posting on a now long forgotten totally lost Dreamcast forum room. At that time there was another name Dee4doa, yep the same member here.
Over those old times, Mr. Green Ranger & Dee4doa were both together posting every week with something brand new! I was overlooking whole progress personally. Any new news on the next release date.
Years went by nothing wasn't happening! Can we bring over the Hard*Core levels?!?!?! That Light Was Burning Away.
Well that was until September 2015, the Final release from Mr. Green Ranger came out with no real fanfare.
Now was my time to finally start learning the trade, the modding business! I went on that forum room, took nearly all the key information. Got myself a Hex Editor just dived in forwards.......Okay this was struggle a mile. The website was long gone sadly, the Wayback Machine didn't save the website.
Thankfully I did save what was needed with all important Hex Address's.
Lets Skip too end off 2020, The Atomiswave craze was taken upon a storm. This was a big key thing as learned more about the SD Serial Adapter. This Device plugs in the back off your Dreamcast basically acts as a GDI readable playing thingy!
That Device alone helped me out with this entire series! Found out how to build up GDI's myself after knowing full well DoA2 was playable using the SD Serial Adaptor. Everything was gelling up rewiring everything my mindset was set on. Part One, Final 2021 came out October 2021.
Now today Twenty-One Chapters worth now.
You get Two Builds worth off content with full of new Costumes & Story Modes. My main goal is the overall Presentation itself.
I may not be the top talent of the mod community oh boy have I done my absolutely best to Overhaul this game from top to bottom!
There still alot to be done & discover though. Yeah I have certain Dream List, like seeing those unused Cut Scenes, fixable DoA3 Stances, those Hard*Core Exclusive Features, PS2 Stages like restoring that Dojo stage, Tengu's Holding Staff, Bayman CPU, more C1 updates and a New Tag Team Stage!
Okay I know this is all possible but out off my range.
Checkout the Screenshots & Videos too please!

The Dreamcast Junkyard Blog, nice enough to writeup all about this so long ago now.
I Love Dead or Alive 2 on the Dreamcast.
Since 1999 I've been thinking about this everyday. I think about why couldn't we have Dead or Alive: Hard*Core on the Dreamcast?! The Dreamcast can do what the PlayStation 2 can do!
So yeah that's my Goal, my Reality and my Today for everyone to play.
I've done all I can for this year yes hopefully can keep on moving forwards so please enjoy.
Five By Five!
