GTA Vice City gets an unofficial port to Dreamcast

A passionate team of developers is to bring Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to an unusual new platform with a new unofficial port.

Another such project appeared at the end of March 2025, when Modder Jnmartin84 shared an update on their efforts to get Emissions Works with Segas console from 1999. The images from their project shared by the Youtube channel Sega Guru (via Time Extension) show one of the best PS1 racers that go smoothly on Dreamcast, which often exceeds 100 frames per second.

Doom 64 Dreamcast Port informed JNMARTIN84's Wipeout project

When he reflected on their performance, JNMARTIN84 revealed that the project was largely informed by their previously final Dreamcast port in Nintendo 64 exclusive Doom 64. The older gate saw the developer create some tools to manipulate polygon heads and “rapid math”, which they have also used to get Emissions To drive on Sega's classic console. The project itself is their second attempt to port Emissions to Dreamcast, after a similar effort in 2023, which produced a game that worked but did not have sound and experienced any graphic problems. The new gate is also not trouble -free; JNMARTIN84 reports that the music stops working after competing some tracks and trying to finish to the main menu sometimes results in the entire game crashing.

The first work building of the port was successfully compiled on March 19, reminded the developer. JNMARTIN84 did not work out if they intend to continue to refine the game, or if this was a single-and-made attempt. One thing that possibly informed about their port efforts was the fact that the original EmissionsThe source code is easily accessible online, after being released by Archival Group Forest of Illusion back in mid -2022. For projects such as this improves it to have access to the original source code significantly understanding the game's logic and simplify information such as asset withdrawal and handling.

JNMARTIN84S DREAMCAST version of Emissions emerged online just weeks after another fan began to port Grand Theft Auto: Vice City to Segas console from 1999. The specific project is currently controlled by SKMP, the same developer that previously received GTA3 Run on Dreamcast.
