There won't be any functional difference between these and the old versions, so if the old versions are working for people you're OK to keep using them. Fenrir is just really picky about format apparently.
Like hawkzer0, I have tested v5 and it works perfectly! Thank you SEGA RPG FAN for putting in the time and effort into fixing this problem and for your future work rebuilding the files - you are a genuine legend!
So to return to the topic at hand, I have now seen both the US and JP Xband screens and the JP version seems better - is this a misunderstanding on my end?
For example it has a CHALLENGE option. This doesn't work, however. It says the DEMO only supports peer-to-peer so this seems to be the old (and defunct) server-based online mode. This option isn't why I think the JP version seems better, just adding it.
PLAYER LIST - I haven't seen this option on the US version. On the US version you have to dial people directly, which is also how this Player List function works. However the US edition doesn't seem to include the ability to save people to a Player List like this - requiring you to input unique IPs each time. Have I got this wrong?
X-MAIL - No longer functioning email reader. Not likely to be of much use to anyone since even the DC struggles with more modern email accounts now.
STATS - I couldn't find this on the US versions, essentially a tracking win/lose ratio. It has things like XBAND Points and XBAND Level, so this may be defunct as it may require the XBAND Registration and server.
PLAYER INFO - Mostly the same as US (Though has different Character Avatars), however there is an additional Personal Info option to add a mini-bio for yourself. Not sure where this would be of much use, but defo a cool extra.
I don't yet have my VOIP adapter, so I haven't been able to get my XBAND modem online yet, so I'm just looking in awe at all this "new" stuff lol
