Making a VMU work in chankast

How to clear the data on the built in VMU's and how to save games in this awesome software

You may have downloaded the dreamcast emulator and you may have read the help files but how do you really save games?

I started using chankast and I had no idea how I could possibly save a game in this, until I had used it several times and found out how to save games, its very simple once you actually know how.

First you open up chankast, please make sure you have no game image in your daemon tools or choice of virtual drive, we need chankast to be game free, click start, the emulator will start and take you to the dreamcast inbuilt section.

Select the VMU (memory card) option and allow it to open the page, now select both of the memory card and open them one at a time and do this to both of them, first you tell it to delete all data and click ok and ok until it asks you to choose a image and then a colour once you have done that the memory card is ready to use!

Do this on both of the memory cards, this will allow chankast to open and use the fake memory cards! Simple as that, I hope this helps you guys out!

Thanks a lot for this! I just started using this emulator and I was trying to get a game to start but it was asking me to free memory card space. Did as you said and it seems to work fine now!

For those reading this that dont exactly understand what he means, he meant that you have to take a game out of the virtual drive (daemon tools, etc.) to get the loggin screen, from there you go to memory, and you put delete all data from the memory card it displays, which should have a giant ex over the picture in it. After that it tells you to customize the look of the memory card and after that, your all set.

-Thanks a lot bro, I was stressin about this for a while and it all worked out in minutes.
