well, first I tried adding those lines to the old segatools.ini, that caused the whole thing to not load anymore, then I found and downloaded new version of segatools, coppied that to the dir the old was in, setup network and everything per OP, now all I get is network error which makes no sense being I kept my old segatools.ini and coppied that info exactly the same.... I did notice another option in the new ini that wasn't in the old,
Insert the path to the game Option directory here (contains OPxx directories)
option=
not sure if that has anything to do with it or not, but that doesn't say it's network related
