Here is the link to the web page, it's set up very nice and works just fine

BUT...Q3A has a problem, as does and other game that doesnt support ''blid dial'' (means it doesnt wait to hear a dial-tone b-4 dialing out). The page says you cant play these games (NFL2K1 as well) BUT you can. Just have one phone line going to the phone jack, and anouther going to your computer. Use the line in the wall when you start to dial out, when the game hears the dial tone and starts to connect, just switch out the lines. vola.

Now the real problem..the following is from the web page:

Briefly how to configure other online games.

''If you can get the game to dial out, you have to then figure out what ports Sega's servers are using to connect to your Dreamcast. For PSO I used a program called Z-Monitor from XYZ Software. It works great, and should be fine for all other games you want to hack. As I find out more games' ports I will list them here. Also I will probably expand this chapter in the future to make a detailed step-by-step guide of how to do this. After you found out what port's to map, just map them and the game should work.''

I cant figure out how to use Z-Monitor for finding out the ports for Q3A servers (master server?).(&$#%@&*^)

I'd really like to get this to work, firends and I have 2 PCs routed together, and we'd like to have the DC with a good connection for playing eachother. Be happy to make some sort of deal/trade for the info on Q3A. Thx

I'm actually connecting thru the BBA thru a PC on my network connected to my modem on DC... when I go on ### to play... I can see everything walking and stuff just fine but when I try joining a game, i can't see anyone walking inside.... i can see people type, I can see people attack, but i can't see them move around! All they do is just standing there still pausing.

I try using the Zmonitor as well, i was able to get it working but it was looking at some strange port numbers like -25986 what da heck do I do with a minus port??

Anyways, here's my configuration:

Win2k Pro
[Server Machine + Cable modem]


Connected to:

WinMe
[Client Machine + Connected to the server to share internet]

So Here's what I did, I don't knwo the config for Win2k pro so what I did was I set everything up on the WinME machine instead. I know, it's not the server machine but what choice do I got. I can't even install Winme anymore.

Anyways, I connected my DC to the WinME machine and I was able to play Daytona USA fine!
So I got on ### and tried, I go into the lobby. everything looks good. but as soon as I join a game, ppl inside would just all stand still there. I can only see them typing. : (

Any ideas?
