The server IP has changed again to due a long term outage. Please re download the save at this new location: http://dc.dreamcast-talk.com/maxpool/MP020415.VMI

What are the details for changing the server address?

What offsets in the vmu save need to be edited?

I'll make a tool to generate them

I just realized an issue... at least with planetweb 2.0 it can't access https sites (the site was recently updated to https). I apologize. I updated the location of the save but I have to make some extra configurations to the server mime type that probably won't be running until tomorrow. The new location of the save that should be accessible by a DC browser is: http://dc.dreamcast-talk.com click the downloads tab to the left. Follow the link to download the updated save. I'm going to ask Dan to update dreampipe as well so it's easier to just connect and download. But check back tomorrow to download that save.

That'll come in handy, thanks! Hopefully though the IP changes don't occur more than once a year.

Small update: the vmu file is now downloadable through dreamcast. Just direct your DC browser of choice to: http://dc.dreamcast-talk.com/maxpool Click the .vmi file and boom!
