MAXIMUM POOL BACK ONLINE AS OF 17th JUNE 2005

Well amazingly, I started this thread on Monday 13th June 2005 to hopefully make some progress into getting this game back online, little did I know that just 4 days later, the thread would have completed its task...totally amazing.......

In basic terms, when maximum pool saves to the VMU, it includes a list of server addresses that were originally used for the DC to connect to the servers and calls upon these everytime you go online, however these changed at somepoint since the release of the game, so of course the DC was now calling on the wrong addresses, which mean the meeting room showed up as empty. Tino had a good idea that these servers were listed in the VMU save and knew what the current server addresses were due to his experience with the PC version of the game and so was able to edit the Dreamcast's save file using a hex editor so that the Dreamcast version was now calling the correct servers.
