Decided to rename the topic, I kept SaturnPi in there only because there were a few people I believe that were following the topic as SaturnPi.

Hey Dan dont know if you have time but when a you insert the netlink three options come up. Play the game offline, play online or go to a old sega website to meet netlinkers. The site no longer works but i ripped all the game files for all the netlink games i have and here are the urls if you want to redirect them to dreampipe or the bb forms, so people can at least use it. Also as far as i know the netlink site was not archived, will post it if i find it

Do you know the duke nukem one?

Also it would be neat if these redirected so an irc chat compatible with the saturn browser :) Idelly depending on what game its coming from it could goto a specific irc chat room, or the ability to goto a main room to chat with users on other netlink games. The original netlink zone took people to an irc chat I think also.

I hate to ask again, but can you remind me how to obtain Planet Web 4.0 again? lol Or is there a iso already out there with it?

I noticed the NetLink Zones appear to already go to Dreampipe.net when connecting via a Dreampi (tried over lunch) :) Need to test the IRC chat with the built in NetLink Zone browser and see if it still functions.
