Jonas Karlsson is a wizard! PBA Tour Bowling 2001 is back online! And I do mean "back" online. Even though the game was never officially released, it ran on the servers for the PC game back in the day. Regardless, I'm sure not many people actually played the Dreamcast version online so here's your chance!
Congratulations again to Jonas! I'm glad the PAL patch I provided was useful at the end
I will try it very soon a match with my friend jial, and I will win of course!! xDDD

I remember playing the game with blast from Onlineconsoles. The biggest game we got going was a 4 player match that crashed after a few rounds. The game is prone to crashes while using the ingame menus such as chat-input .

Not surprised. The chat is extremely clunky. The game has to load every time you want to type a new chat message. Not to mention the fact that you have to load the pause menu just to get to the chat in the first place.

UT didn't use GameSpy for the actual game server. It only used it for the master list.

Yeah, I thought it was suitable to give the "smaller" online games some love
before the big ones hit the scene.
