How to download VMU saves using a Macbook Pro???

Post#1 » Tue Apr 16, 2019 12:49 am

Anyone know how to download save files for Dreamcast games for Mac Users? I have a Japanese copy of MVC2 and need to download an everything unlocked save ASAP. I know this question has been answered for PC users, but there seems to be no tutorial for mac users on the internet. Is it possible to download VMU save files using a mac? Someone help please! :P

Have you honestly never saved anything from the internet? it works pretty much the same on any OS: you click the link and your browser saves it to your computer... ;)

I think haze9899 doesn't have any troubles downloading the save file to his Mac, but rather having difficulties on getting the save file from the computer to the VMU of the Dreamcast. The latter is equally tiresome for both Mac and Windows users.

But instead of downloading a save file from the WWW to your computer, I recommend DL'ing (or buying) the capcom fan disc or famitsu dreamcast vm data issue. Or download the http://www.bucanero.com.ar/2005/08/12/v ... p-cd-v130/ and get the save file from there straight onto your Dreamcast.

This does introduce a new question, how to burn Dreamcast images with a Mac :lol:

well im not sure if this helps but you can upload your own saves and download them at this site. pretty sure you just go to the site on the dreamcast browser.

edit: i re read your question. the link i gave has what youre looking for im sure. its a lot of vmu saves. or download dream explorer and put it on a disc/sd http://dcevolution.sourceforge.net/inde ... m_explorer
