Dreamcast-Talk.com

good evening

I have started these days to look for information on how to play Dreamcast online with emulators, I found the Flycast option but without much information In the few youtube videos I see they talk about something extremely easy but in my attempts in Quake 3 or PSO I can't connect, I have the upnp enabled as well as the DMZ in the router for the IP of my machine.

I appreciate any additional information on this topic.

You shouldn't DMZ your computer under any circumstances - that leaves it wide open to all sorts of threats. DMZ-ing a Dreamcast is fine because it isn't likely to be a target for hackers/viruses, but that's not so for a computer. I'd recommend reversing that as soon as possible.

I'm personally not familiar with using flycast, but there are a handful of people on the Sega Online discord (Sega online.net) that play online with it, and they might be able to help you out.

Strange, quake 3 should just work without dmz on flycast without having to turn on any settings, atleast that is how it was on all the devices i have it installed on.
