I need to load up my linux machine and get all the tools setup

oh man MastaG on this forum has the secret sauce to fixing CDI to ISO images

And finally.. looks like older emulation needs to be done on an sd card with this setup gdemu has no issues i believe because it loads slower so it is able to load properl

nope nevermind after some more testing ssd doesn't work as well as a spinning drive consistently gets hung up in areas. Not sure if the ssd is too fast or what. The IDE also glitched out in certain areas so I wouldn't say its flawless .. it has its quirks and we cannot save to a memory card as it doesn't detect one. I would happily pay for a bleem license if it meant a significant improvement over the free or whatever release this is

so it wasn't ssd or ide issue its just trying to move too quickly between loading initially and hitting start

hmm .. seems to be an ssd issue .. ide worked flawless

doesn't allow you to actually play

@megavolt - looks like after hitting the start button on the main title screen for Casltevania it just goes into a loop

only thing I can think of is the browser you are using

from what you ahve shared you show up online so I dont' get it

did you ensure you setup the dial number 111-1111 and the dns properly as on the setup page in dreamcastlive

recap: im using a dreamcast with a GDEMU and a copy of phanasy star online v2. I am using a dream pi kit bought from the dreamcast live website. it is set up and connected. I used web browser 2.0 so set up the connection as instructed. I try to go online I use the codes included in the copy of pso I have then the codes for v2 it asks for that I don't have but found online. I appear as online on the website but never actually get into the game. it sticks at the loading screen, and disconnects.

oh. um im not sure the set came pre put together.

https://dreamcastlive.net/downloads/

I don't think im using either and that link isn't working for me

Megavolt - the name of the game does show up on a USB4MAPLE screen!

are you using the gdi or cdi from dreamcastlive - https://dreamcastlive.net/files/xdp_le_r4.zip

im sorry but I don't know what you mean.

I have used the gdemu - you could try a different browser igp, xgp, and there is another one

when I try to connect I see myself appear on the dreamcast now website.

yeah I got the full kit

dreampi

if you got the 56k modem do you have a dream pi and 56k modem with a 9v(18v) voltage injector?

whats your setup? 56k modem or BBA

says line disconnected due to network error.

ah, hi? so hey, can anyone help? I just got my dreamcast set up online and tried to connect to PSO and like... it connected but then stuck on the loading screen and canceled out. am I doing something wrong? my setup is an actual dreamcast with a GDEMU cuz disk drive died and a copy of PSO v2.

I tried to use a cdi to iso converter with out much luck . GDEMU just plays the CDI so that was my logic behind that

my lack of development knowledge on DC i think is limiting me as I don't know much about the memory location options along with the loader options so its been trial and error going through settings one by one

i been beating my head against the wall the last couple days. I dont' understand why the ISOs built for dreamshell are not loading up. I got close but it froze at the sega and dcswat splash screen

I'm just happy to see an emulator finally working

Hell yea!!

to change the cover and title I need to write a program, but at least you have the ability to quickly create images and test them
