IT'S FINALLY HERE! #Doom64 has officially landed on the Sega #Dreamcast with this flawless, AAA-quality port by jnmartin. I've been following his work the entire time, beta testing (and making sure we didn't break anything in KOS), and it has been an absolute pleasure to see how much care and attention to detail has been put into bringing this #N64 classic to the DC!

He has released all of the source code and tools required to build and play the game on his GitHub... but there are still a few small additions I would love to see the community pitch in to help with. It already has some bitchin' VMU icons, but we should definitely add support for: Mouse + Keyboard, Dual-analog sticks, and Rumble packs, to ensure that the DC port is the definitive version!

Volcanic lightning is an electrical discharge caused by a volcanic eruption rather than from an ordinary thunderstorm. Volcanic lightning arises from colliding, fragmenting particles of volcanic ash (and sometimes ice), which generate static electricity within the volcanic plume, leading to the name dirty thunderstorm. Moist convection currents and ice formation also drive the eruption plume dynamics and can trigger volcanic lightning. Unlike ordinary thunderstorms, volcanic lightning can also occur when there are no ice crystals in the ash cloud.

The earliest recorded observations of volcanic lightning are from Pliny the Younger, describing the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD, "There was a most intense darkness rendered more appalling by the fitful gleam of torches at intervals obscured by the transient blaze of lightning." The first studies of volcanic lightning were also conducted at Mount Vesuvius by Luigi Palmieri who observed the eruptions of 1858, 1861, 1868, and 1872 from Vesuvius Observatory. These eruptions often included lightning activity.

Instances have been reported above Alaska's Mount Augustine volcano, Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull and Grimsvotn, Mount Etna in Sicily, Italy, Taal Volcano in Philippines and Mount Ruang in Indonesia.

Experimental studies and investigation of volcanic deposits have shown that volcanic lighting creates a by-product known as "lightning-induced volcanic spherules" (LIVS). These tiny glass spherules form during high-temperatures processes such as cloud-to-ground lightning strikes, analogous to fulgurites. Temperature of a bolt of lightning can reach 30,000 °C. When this bolt contacts ash particles within the plume it may do one of two things: completely vaporize the ash particles or cause them to melt and then quickly solidify as they cool, forming orb shapes. The presence of lightning-induced volcanic spherules may provide geological evidence for volcanic lightning when the lightning itself was not observed directly.
