[UK] Emulated Dreamcast no response from master server

Post#1 » Tue Jun 15, 2021 9:13 am

Hello, recently I have been fascinated with getting to experience the Dreamcast online functionality, due to living circumstances however I am unable to afford a Raspberry Pi or any of the resources to get my physical Dreamcast back online, so instead I have been using the Flycast core on Retroarch, this is something Libretro have confirmed works shown by multiple videos posted to their account, however, when I try to set it up through quake, I am able to get as far as connecting online, before it gives me this error. I have also tried to get online on ChuChu Rocket and got it as far as the 'connecting to server' screen before it times out. This could be potentially due to the SKY DNS block which is the ISP I am unfortunately stuck with until my contract expires, I have tried getting around this by messing with internet properties on my PC, but still no luck. Any help is widely appreciated, thanks!

Hey, good to know you are interested in going online to the point of doing it via emulator, no problem with that, go ahead.

You can try this:

1 - Set your DNS server to 46.101.91.123 using a web browser GDI, such as Planet Web, in order to see the master list.

2 - Even if the master list don't work, you can specify the server IP and Port in order to start a game, into the master list screen, you have that option.

3 - You can now even appear in Dreamcast Now if you want, check this:
