Custom PlanetWeb Browser [WIP]
Was wondering if anyone has made a GDI rip of the final version of this web browser, the only versions out there have issues that constantly make it crash and almost unusable (Even dans viewtopic.php?f=22&t=8209) No GDI rip exists anywhere on the internet, not even in this big collection viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10412.
I know Bob had a copy but i was wondering if anyone could make a rip of it with the BBA or Dreamshell. Thanks
Edit: By the way has anyone got any of the web browser to work in dreamshell? thanks

Re: PlanetWeb Browser 3.0 GDI Wanted
If you have something that can run dreamshell than you can rip it from there. If not then this is a good guide http://dcemulation.org/dumpcast/viewtopic.php?t=153

Re: PlanetWeb Browser 3.0 GDI Wanted
Send me a message or reply here. I'd be glad to help you out. I'm not a wizard but I have a consistent setup right now.
What do you need help with? I'll be out of town over the weekend but I'll snag a copy of the GDI for checking and diagnosing with you over the weekend

Re: PlanetWeb Browser 3.0 GDI Wanted
Just so the correspondence is transparent and archived.
Ok so just so I understand your goal.
2 points:
1. Make a new GDI with modified files that boots (I can only test on emulators, although they emulate this correctly)
2. Make a selfboot cdi with modified files (I am pretty good at this)
Right?
I'll be starting with "Planetweb Internet Browser V3.0 for Dreamcast v3.040 (2001)(Planetweb)(NTSC)(US)[!]"
First off I'll just get an unmodified version working and go from there.
