For a Dreamcast... hopefully this will solve my transfer issues with
parallel ports and scrounging looking for AVR's in old tech. But...
i cant find a pinout for the cable (PC 2 Memory card) or the
software.

found info

http://media.gameshark.com/info/document/dc_massivememory.pdf

but all the links to the windows software are dead.

anyone can post the dcmmcp.exe app would be cool.

i built the link (atleast 3 times now) with different voltage dividers
for those lines that require them.

now... i know its got to be something i am doing wrong.... i still
cant download a VMS file to the VMU. the hardware (voltage dividers),
every version of them, all hit the 3.3 to 3.5v marks for the signal
voltage. not a issue, this is why i think i might be misusing
sendfile.exe.

C:\Documents and
Settings\Dr_Blackross\Desktop\VMU2PCAlphaRelease>sendfile -h
Usage: sendfile [OPTIONS] FILE
Send a FILE to a Sega Dreamcast VM

then it crashes here is the error report...

this is where i snagged the sendfile.exe
http://www.maushammer.com/VMU2PCAlphaRelease.zip
now i dont know if Sören's code is more up-to-date, but i still
end up
with the same thing. reason i was saying it might be my error is in
hte syntax of sendfile.exe maybe i am not typing it right, lol, maybe
we need a VB version of sendfile... :) (for less human error)

     Also a port of VMU Script, the language for programming the VMU could be
added to all that, so using the keyboard and VMU Script a minigame could be
written on screen then compiled and saved to the VMU, wow you idea is great
indeed, but alas, i have zero programming experience, so it`s up to any one
else in this list to make it, maybe we could support as bug reporters and
beta testers...

We`ll meet again someday soon... ikaruga a shooter for real men...

maybe a bit belated of a reply... but i just picked up a couple of
these vmu's and hacked one apart (w/ dremel) to get the connector to
build a parallel adapter.. and was thinking the same thing...

i found this page off of Sören Gust's site...

http://mc.pp.se/dc/controller.html

there was another page i misplaced that showed the serial traffic to
a controller and what goes where once inside the controller.

(i think it was on the previous link or burried in John Maushammer's
site somewhere... http://www.maushammer.com/vmu.html )

was going to try and code some stuff to run ferretronic's serial
chips, or something, since these VMU's make great lil pocket watches.

Got to respect the idea but i am not sure you realise how much
work/time will be involved, still, i am happy to give any help i can.
It could be great, try and get lots of people involved so the level of
enthusiasm can not drop and it could be the best !!

well, i can't help with most of what you describe, b
ut, there are sites for the upload/ftp sort of stuff
...

http://www.vmu-harddrive.com
offers free private accounts for file storage, as we
ll as a public archive...

http://tools.planetweb.com
offers the ability to ftp game saves into webspace..
.
(though, it is planetweb only, unfortunately, and th
e ftp'd saves can only be downloaded with planetweb
browsers...  so, it is of very limited value...)

http://snow.prohosting.com/droleen
offers a great ftp interface to transfer media files
  and html files from vmu directly to webspace, with
some very nice features...
this site also has a web-based vmu icon and animatio
n creator, though it is down now, but will hopefully
  return eventually...  and the creator is very javas
cript-heavy, so, i doubt it works with planetweb, ju
st dreamkey or dreampassport...


and anything i am forgetting can, of course, be foun
d at the dreamcast browsers group...
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DreamcastBrowsers



insidious_plots...
http://home.earthlink.net/~insidiousplot

I was just thinking today that it would be very useful to have a
Dreamcast based VMU emulator...
Ideas for features would be:
- to have the VMU emulator controled via the DC controller and have
the program being run displayed on the TV as well as on the VMU
loaded into the DC controller...
- it would would have to load from and save to the VMU in the DC
controller so that the emulator could be used to play the minigames
associated with specific games and acctually affect them (aka skies
of arcadia/sonic adventure 2), so I don't have to buy another battery
- it would have to emulate up to 4 VMU's simultaneousely and support
linking between the VMU's in 2 controllers as well as a virtual VMU
controlled by one of the other controllers...
- is should include all the copying/deleting funtions that are
standard to the VMU interface built into the DC...
- it should allow for upload and download via FTP for VMU files
(including appropriate conversion), so one can avoid purchasing new
Memory cards by backing files up online..
- and for good measure it should have a simple graphics editor that
would let people create and change those VMU image things...

All in all, if it's at all possible it seems like it would make a
very useful tool, and seeing as their are so many people out their
playing with codeing the DC and VMU it seems like it would have
already been done by now...  I unfortunately don't have much
experience with programming and stuff so I wouldn't know where to
even start looking for this kind of stuff.

anyways... it's an idea I like to dream about and if you have any
suggestions where I should start looking for the steps I should take
to start creating this kind of stuff I would greatly appreciate it (I
have a couple really good programming buddies who are just itching
for the opportunity to code something useful)

Make sure your web server provides these files with the correct mime
type:

Using the -i option, the .VMI looks okay ( vms type : GAME($3) /
Checksum : SEGA:ok AGES:failed ), as does a hex dump, and the DC
definitely makes a GET request ro the server for the correct file.

What are you using to generate the VMI files from the VMS files?
There needs to be a checksum etc. in the VMI file.

On another note, I've got downloads to work fine with PlanetWeb, but
when I try to download files with DreamPassport it pops up an error
message in japanese after downloading the file.  I can't read
japanese :)  Does anyone have any experience with getting downloads
to work with DreamPassport as well as PlanetWeb?

Hi,

I have almost no DC or VMU experience, so I've thrown myself into the dark a
bit, but have read all the FAQ's and digests of this list, I have however
hit a problem ...

I have a home-grown web server running on a local PC which the DC can dial
into and be served web pages from, and I have modified it to serve up .VMI
and .VMS minigame files.

Using the PlanetWeb 2.6 browser, all HTML files download okay, as do .VMI
files but once the .VMI has been downloaded, the browser reports "Failed to
download the VMS file". The download progress bar pops-up and gets halfway
across before the failed message appears.

I've used Telnet on the local PC to check the pages are being served up
okay, and that the Content-Type: in the header is correct. MS IE downloads
the files when the file links are clicked on and the downloaded images match
those on the server. I've re-assembled the .S file to recreate the .VMS and
.VMI files so filename cases all match etc, but still no joy.

Attempting to download the .VMS directly causes the PlanetWeb browser to
show a page which says "The document you have chosen contains no HTML etc
etc", and then displays gibberish, as I expected, but gives no error
messages per se.

The VMU in the controller appears to be working fine, and can save and load
game save data from DC games.

Any ideas as to what's going wrong or where to start looking, as the browser
message isn't the most useful error message I've ever seen ?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

US Browser v2 ignores the MIME types altogether, which is why the fact
his experiment failed seems odd. This is why some people with DreamKey
had problems downloading VMU files that people with planetweb didn't
have problems with.

Those MIME types work fine with PlanetWeb 3 as well.

well, i won't be much help, but, i do happen to know
  it can be done...
there was a free promotional disk released in the ja
panese market that contained, if memory serves, a pe

you simply choose the save you want and d/l it to th

the catalog number is 610-8094 and it is listed here

hi,

This is my first post to this group so hello everyone.

After reading this post and the replies I gave the following a try:

I got a copy of the web browser from:
http://www.megagames.com/dc/dc_utils_misc.shtml

Modified the HTML file that loads when the browser starts up
(DRMCST.HTM or DRMSTRT.HTM) to contain just a bunch of links to some
VMS and VMI files I put on the CD.

After burning about 10 coasters trying various selfboot methods I
just use the good old Echelon method.

Result:
The browser showed my new HTML file.
Clicking VMS or VMI files just opened the files in the browser window.

Conclusion:
Using the web browser to send VMS to VMU will not work. Unless anyone
has any other ideas.

I think what we need is some Dreamcast program that can copy files
off a cd too the VMU. I haven't tried any Dreamcast programming so
I'm not the one for the job. But I've seen homebrewed stuff that
writes to the VMU. I don't know if there is a different protocol for
writing save game data than writing a VMU game to the VMU or how the
VMU differentiates a game from data. Anyone have any thoughts?

I finally took some time to release DreamVMU. You may wonder: What
is DreamVMU ?? Well, DreamVMU is an DreamCast Virtual Memory Unit
emulator. It does NOT emulate the Sega DreamCast !!

DreamVMU doens't emulate the full VMU hardware, and it is very
buggy. However this was just a fun project for me to do, and I will
not do any more development on it. But the source is available on
request, so if there any developers out there who might be
interested to continue the project, mail me at: xega_emu@...
to get the source code.
You can freely use the code, as long as you credit me as the
original author.

DreamVMU uses DirectX 8.0 or higher. There is no documentation
available, but the GUI should be very easy to use (well, I think)

You can get the Win32 binary here:

Enjoy :)

It isn't usable for development purposes as is, unfortunately, since
it does not load raw VMS file, but another format produced by the
official assembler (that can be later on stripped to raw).

Hi, is there any file that I can download to use my VMU as a
phonebook, calendar or a really nice clock?

TIA

The startup stuff and help files on the browser disks are accessable
without connecting online.

Can anyone please confirm that any of the Sega browsers support
OFFLINE browsing for this purpose...
