Never saw anything like that.

In one of the TXR games the most famous AE86 of them all, Takumi Fujiwaras "Tofu Shop Trueno" is availalable as an unlockable.

Does anyone know anything more about this ? Which game is it etc ?

Thanks again for all the warm welcome's guys! received my other system and games lot. cleaned up the system inside and out and gave to my brother. Games are a little scratched up but i'm going to resurface them. Now onto my problem I had last night. Ever game load up and plays on the my system fine except my Shenmue 1. It would load up fine to the main menu start a new game and go through the intro video then it goes to a loading screen then it will get stuck there and just play music. Tryed it on my other 2 systems and it loads perfectly. I Check the disk and it perfect. So long story short it seems to be my beloved Yamaha drive I thought would be so good and last so long could not handle that part so it seems. So I took the other Samsung drive that was in my other system and threw it in and thank goodness it fit. Because putting the Yamaha drive on the other doesn't work right and sits funny on the metal board. Anyways now that works fine. I also swamped out the Jap power board for the US one cuz it seems to run cooler. But anyways more pics of that later tonight.

For my other problem. I'm having trouble getting online with my BBA. How would I set it up using quake 3 arena? It's connected to my router currently.

you should use the XDP browser software to setup your BBA, doesn't take very long, however I can't remember the instructions on what to actually do! I assume you do have a BBA then? cool

Yes I do have a BBA. Were do I get that software? There is no way of doing it with my quake 3 arena game?



My system currently with the newer swapped out Samsung drive and the newer 1999 US power board.

Here is the old Yamaha drive and old Jap power board reattached to my spare system.

Yes you can configure it in Q3A. Check out my post here (6 posts down) on how to configure it:

How much did your BBA run you? I've been looking for a good deal on one for a long time now but haven't had any luck

I got it with a dreamcast and that clear case for 160$ Which PSO should I get? 1 or 2? which has a bigger following online that you know of?

Definitely get v.2 as it's basically just v.1 with extra stuff (including being able to level up to 200 instead of 100). They both play in the same servers anyway so v.1 players can play with v.2 players as long as they are playing in a v.1 team (you specify which version when you start the team).
