The DNS is fixed! Out of curiosity I Googled the IP that the DNS was responding with, and as it turns out, it was an old IP for DreamPipe from a few years ago. I told Kazade and he found an old config file that contained that IP. He made the necessary changes and voila! All good now!
I should note that, for me at least, it still can take a couple tries for the site to load. Might be an issue on Jial's server but I'm not sure. If it doesn't load the first time for you, just click the MSR logo again and it should load.

Good deal, that should explain why some other sites we added for future restorations pointed to that same ip
I managed to get this to work today on my PAL Dreamcast and even downloaded a time trial to my VMU!
It wouldn’t work without putting in the code that was in this thread on my pi.
Am I ok to leave the code in or do I have to put anything else in now?
Sorry for my lack of knowledge about programming!
You can leave the code in place as it should accomplish the same goal as the dns does. The only potential issue is if the ip change but I believe its a static ip.
I can also create a new dnsmasq with that added line removed as well if you want.

Whatever you recommend is best to future proof it. I don’t really want to messing with my DreamPi too much.

PC has updated the dnsmasq code.
Simply rerun that script again and it will revert the changes and you should be future proof
This isn't the best kept secret in the Dreamcast online community but it's time to officially announce that Speed Devils Online has...

If you have Discord you should join the Flycast discord - flyinghead is the main dev for this game, you might be able to negotiate a change with him...
