  3. How To Make Non-VGA Dreamcast Games Play on VGA Ever buy/download a game for Dreamcast and you said, "hey, this game would look sweet on VGA!" but it didn't? Bought a game that SAID it worked on VGA, and didn't? (Evil Dead: Hail To The King is one example) Ever just wanted to play everything on VGA, just because VGA rules so damn much? NOW YOU CAN!!!! can can can can....*lame echo* Its very easy to do. First off, its a lot easier if you have a VMU with dead batteries (you can just take them out if you want, you wont lose any data) and then practice with the VMU, and then once you know the timing right, put the batteries back in. What you do is this, If you have a VGA BOX switch it to TV mode (no TV needs to be hooked up, but make sure its plugged into your Dreamcast and VGA monitor correctly), if you have a VGA CORD plug one end into the VGA monitor, and UNPLUG the other end from the DC. Put in your Non-VGA game and turn on your DC. If you have a VMU in, Wait until it beeps, after it beeps, if you have a VGA BOX switch it to VGA mode, if you have a VGA CORD, plug it back into the back of your DC. Your Monitor might say something like "Out Of Scan Range" after awhile but just wait and it should work. This has worked on every game I've tested it on, so happy VGA gaming! HOW IT WORKS: When the DC first turns on, it checks everything that's plugged into it, Keyboards, controllers, rumble packs, VGA boxes, etc. When the DC detects everything, it will detect a VMU with dead batteries and make it beep, which is the last detection process in the sequence, so after this its done detecting and starts booting. So pretty much, you have the DC detecting a regular TV input and not a VGA box, so it memorizes that there is a VGA box plugged in, and then the game tells it to boot or not depending on compatibility. So what we do, is after it says, ok theres a regular TV output plugged in, we switch it back to VGA, your monitor gets a bad signal. Then when it says, "This game is produced by or under license from sega..." it resets the video mode, why? because its adjusting the color levels/resolution. Then your monitor tunes to it and plays whatever the DC gives it, or something like that, not thinking too clearly right now hehe, but guess what? The DC never bothered to recognize the VGA box again so your game boots on VGA. Have fun!
  4. what happens when you put it in the DC? Is your DC clean? Clean the Lense! How did you burn it? What kind of CD-Rs is it on? Did you try any bootdiscs?
  5. yep, hes right, RARELY you can get the audio player CD ones to work with a bootdisc, or just try restarting the DC a few times
  6. yeah its not that hard, but oh well, download that thing that has Gameshark, Action Replay, Pelican CHeater Doohicky (i dont remember the name) and Pelican MP3 (it sucks dont bother with the MP3 thing) then you can make sure to have compatible codes for at least one of em
  7. yeah, your better off with the UK version because its probably in english
  8. look for the BlueSwirl website, they have tons and tons of VMU saves do a google search for "Blueswirl VMU saves"
  9. When i say get them ALL, im not kidding, they all rule, if all i was able to do was sit at this new DC station (got another dc ) and play games all day on it (i have every DC game, plus 99% of homebrew) i would be happy, i love them all!!! oh yeah and i need food too of course
  10. maybe their showing it again, i dont know... ya i know man, hollywood needs to be inspired, im sick of these stupid movies they keep throwing at us that all boil down to the same thing... and whats with crappy MTV? thos music videos are the crappiest things iver ever seen, and they spend thousands!!
  11. Ok well i put some links to DC emulations Best Stuff in the DC section, I put some new Articles up (they should look firmilier ) but for the PSX guide ill snap a picture of the doohicky you make, and uhh yeah, ill try to get some other stuff up there EXCEED MY BANDWIDTH LIMIT TO PISS OFF GEOCITIES!!! hehe...i hate geocities, OH YEAH, thats the other part, i got a new host and ill be uploading everything there (including actual downloads) tomorrow
  12. Independent films rule, yes, but some of them REALLY, REALLY suck. "All independent films are just about a bunch of gay cowboys sitting around eating pudding" -Cartman, South Park
  13. ok next time my Japanese friend comes over im going to make him translate the entire menu and post it hehe
  14. I want gorillas with plated armor and machine guns *breaks the horrible DVD that was Planet Of The Apes* .....god..what a stupid assed idea....
  15. i saw it, i didnt think it was that big a deal, i think it was a dud 3/10 rating i was going to fall asleep it bored me so much Im not even kidding, why is everyone making such a big deal? I think it was pretty stupid. Sorry for sounding like an asshole, but really, i dont get what the big deal was it was like all the hype over the flop that was Devil May Cry 2 It was violent, yeah, but ive seen WAAAAAAAY worse, people are just saying this is the most violent movie theyve ever seen because they are either ignorant, live under a rock, or just want to fit in with the crowd Im exposed to more violence than that movie has in its 3 hours or whatever waste of time it was in 45 minutes just by playing certain video games Oh yeah, Has anyone seen House Of 1000 Corpses Unrated Edition? hell, even the R version? thats 100000X more violence and blood than this movie had!
  16. heh, its one of those crappy "independent films" so good luck finding it
  17. check the official website i think there is info on where/when it will be showing sorry for it being "gay" i was bored
  18. nice labels Yep, i saw the Psycariar on Jigle, i knew it had to be out, now it seems to be everywhere, heh, anyway, dragon is right, these games rule, I have Super Puzzle Fighter II X and its really fun!
  19. no, thats not your burner, thats because most people prefer DAO than TAO so all the images are in DAO format, when you try to do them at TWO which is alot more eniffecient and prone to errors, it wont work on a DAO image
  20. It's Time i start doing stupid things with my PSX again!!!! Does anyone know any good websites that have lots of Apps/Homebrew junk for PSX? you know, like dcemulation.com has lots of that stuff for Dreamcast, is there a PSX equivelent of that?
  21. i agree I dunno now, maybe ill wait to chip my Xbox until Xbox is dead, i have ALL the content downloads, and uhh..flock that!! im just going to get 2 xboxs, one for chipping one for not chipping
  22. ok if i can find it ill PM it to you, its on my old laptop
  23. just send it to me, im too lazy to PM you hehe Thats retarded that they are suing people for saying bad stuff about them, its called an opinion retards!!! *shakes angry fist at them* and NO, it ISNT better than the Dreamcast
