Alright oddly enough GDI of NFL 2K2 fits on my SD Card , I also did a CD Rip of it from my CD as well.

Neither of them are playing too good , the NFL 2K2 Intro is slow and freezes up etc.

Also My Edited GDI Creation I tried doing for RESIDENT EVIL 2 Simply turns on a Black Screen that one I was expecting :lol:

At the moment just using the 2GB Card I have , I did order 8GB perhaps that will help some how ?

BTW I got JAPAN Dreamcast , Not sure if that makes a difference lol.

You can find a package of games converted somewhere around here I think the thread was active last week.

Dreamshell isnt perfect some say 70% of games playable however getting a modern sd card will help.

The speed of the serial port is slower then a CD.

so you do want a card that has a read speed greater then the serial port. get something made in the last year or two it will be good.

The Dreamcast serial port is faster then a shit SD! Get a ultra speed sd card it will allow you to get maximum speed to read the game files that it does slower then a CD..

With that class 4 card it's like driving with the handbrake on.

Alright Cool , I will test out the ISO stuff tonight , Yeah let me get this all straight

ISO is the best format to be using. Or Optimized GDI ?

So this would mean any mod project I did with GDI , I got to convert that to ISO Or Make Opt'd GDI ? Or buy a much higher SD Card for GDI ? .

How would I do that ? I know the multi sd ISO Maker Download link is down , Only thing is the ISO POWDER Maker which is involves more steps then the other one , haha.

That 8GB Card I bought is suppose to be better then the one I got right now ,

If all fails I will just use this as MASS VMU Save Storage , No Big Deal , VMU are getting real expensive now , I'm a big sports head and as you know thats alot of space being used.

FLAG TO FLAG Racing From the Download Pack is Flawless. Awesome.

Ah RE2 is WIN CE which no go for that idea , But RE3 , Code Veronica , Dino Crisis would be fine.

We got to get the 2K Series made into ISO or Opt'd GDI.
