I'm too stupid to get this working.

I couldn't get it to run stable from a Dreamcast with a Terroronion MODE, the game keeps locking up and crashing. I have tried most of the GDROM seek and read settings without improvement. Has anyone else experienced similar issues with their MODE?

FYI Dreamcast with USB-GDROM seems to be working perfectly fine...

Edit: FAQ suggests GDEMU and DreamShell work best: https://dca3.net/faq/

No issues with my MODE without changing any settings. Only played it for about 15 mins though.

I do have an upgraded PicoPSU which may help perhaps?

Tried the installer , not sure where it created the required gta 3 and dreamcast files for explorer because they never appeared for me and when typing the commands in again, the DreamSDK terminal says they exist already!

Anyone have luck in burning it to a CD-R yet? I'm going to try later today but it would give me comfort to know someone else had success. haha

Open DreamSDK Manager, then click "Open Home".

Okay so my next issue is my GDEmu just doesn’t want to boot it, it’ll go to the licenced by Sega splash screen and go black. Anyone have any ideas why ? It’s a 2014 v5.4 GDEMU

Try the CDI in Demul or Flycast just to ensure it boots.

Otherwise, you can also try using a brand new SD card and just putting the disc.cdi file in the 01 folder (along with the GDEMU.ini file in the root of the card).

Are you using gdMenu or openMenu?

I’m still using GDMenu V0.6 . I tried another SD card and also dropping the file just into the 01 folder but nothing sadly

Did you try an emulator to see if it boots, as I suggested?
