After hours of going through thousands of files and Disk-Salv folders i made it to restore the latest versions of the SOMS(Secret of my soul) demo engine (from the RPG line back in 2001 before it became 3D) and even a special pre engine.
As a matter of fact i started to collect all files together from this never finished game Project to release everything i can to the Public. It will take quiet a while as much where lost in harddrive crashes (filesystem faults). The engines i could salvage so far:
This was the latest Engine: http://soms3d.de/DS-Demo-final.zip It was mostly written in AMOS but supported RTG display and supports even PowerPc instructions (even its 68k). So simply select a suitable lowres 8 bit screenmode and set the colors to 256. But at the end it is just a walk around demo. You can not interact with anything (make sure you read the txt file).
The second demo i found was even older (around the year 1999-2000). http://soms3d.de/soms_0.6.4.1.zip It was written in C and already got sound playing in the background but with completley different graphics (everything is rendered with c4d) as you will see. Still its just a walking around demo version.
The screenshot i attached where a layout shot showing the next step of development.

Well i dont have the sourcecode of the soms3d engine myself. It was always dedicated to the coder. He used parts of it in other projects so far i know so i think it will unlikley be released as openource.
