The Chance to Play ES online for one last time...

I have been poking around to see if I can get PPSSPP to use Ad-Hoc over LAN... And apparently you can! I'm looking more into it, but if things go my way, we can play ES online again! (Only on PPSSPP though, I will provide more details as I learn more about how it works)

This sh*t is going to be awesome.

**EDIT**
Apparently you have to use Hamatchi, or better yet, something like Tunngle, so we can have more than 6 players. I will post more soon, I'm still looking at the stuff.

**EDIT 2**
So.... From what I've read from :
 reddit DOT com/r/MonsterHunter/comments/1v1bzn/im_trying_to_host_a_public_ppsspp_adhoc_server/

It seems like that's all you need to do! That simple! All we need to do is get some members on the xat to do a live test and talk about this, and then we can get it to work. I don't have two laptops to do this on my own, so I need some help from the rest of you guys. :P
**EDIT 3**
It looks like the Ad-Hoc and WiFi emulation in PPSSPP is too buggy to work with ES, I keep getting errors, I will try to use another emulator to do it.

**EDIT 4**
I have gotten another PSP emulator to successfully connect to Ad-Hoc. I'm going to try to test it some more.
The emulator is called JPCSP. It requires Java to run. This looks promising. I will post further information.
**EDIT 5*
Progress progress progress!
I got JPCSP running Es with Ad-Hoc, and I tested it, and it works on my laptop! I was able to link two games together and play!


And here's another



It looks like we might be able to play ES online again after all! Don't worry about the graphical glitching, I was screwing with settings. Your game wont look like that. I will post more info as I get sh*t up and running.
**EDIT 6**
It looks like we're ready for some testing. I request that some tech savvy ES veterans join me tomorrow on Skype or Xat, to discuss how to start playing ES online again.



As you can see here, JPCSP supports Lan mode. Now all we need to do is properly configure Hamatchi or Tunngle to have us connect to eachother, and then we can play online again! Huzzahs are in order!

I request help from some ES Veterans who want to play online again!
Add me on Skype. I'm Dylan.Hockenjos AT outlook DOT com , that way I can give proper instructions on how to obtain the proper files and programs to do all of this.
Any help would be appreciated!

yes I would like to figure this out

I'm using my old account from now on, if you guys want to PM me, then PM this account. Thanks.

You need to message me on Skype, so I can tell you how to get everything running. I might do this tomorrow though.

yea tomorrow its 1am

Yeah, that's a good idea. I can't wait to see the replies from everyone else. I really loved ES.
And sorry about not responding to the concept art topic. It's just that I really don't like to look at games and how great they are, when I'm probably not going to be able to play it on my old ass laptop.

we should use Evolve HQ instead, Dan and I tried it once, it ran much faster than Hamachi.

That sounds amazing, I think that's even a better idea than mine of using XLink Kai, isn't it?
I will really like to test it out. Good job.

Idk if that is true. It's true that it works, but JPCSP is buggy. And it wasn't only ur idea of using Xlink.

Also, @Anubis, you say you found JPCSP after PPSSPP, but PPSSPP appeared much later than JPCSP :P

I am more familiar with Tunngle. It's free, and unlike Hamatchi, a free server lets you have up to 32 people, and not around 6.
@gmn

And thanks @ McDilan

You guys need to add me on Skype so we can do this.

I never said I found it afterwards. I was just saying that I found that the WiFi and Ad-Hoc emulation in JPCSP are far superior to PPSSPP. We're going to have to stick with JPCSP because of that.

In my tests, I couldn't even get PPSSPP to connect to Ad-Hoc, and Infrastructure would just crash the game.

yeah, the devs of PPSSPP say they're not working on Ad-Hoc/Infrastructure atm.

That's bullshit, to be honest. It doesn't even work properly, and they aren't even working on it. What else could they be doing? Games run at full speed with little to no graphical or game breaking glitches. They should be focusing on that!

dont I have you on skype?

Yes, you do.

Wow, that's cool!

Everyone check my guide on how to play ES online.

but we should use EvolveHQ instead of Hamachi.

I think we should use Tunngle. Evolve is confusing as hell to me. With Tunngle, I can get everything set up with a private server with up to 32 people all in the group, which means multiple ES servers can bes hosted, and still be full. Hamachi is too small for playing ES. It's obvious that there are more than 6 people who want to play it at once.

I dislike Tunngle though. After you get used to Evolve, it is very good.

I agree, Tunngle would work well. Although I should reinstall because it crashes after start up.

I thought about doing that, then I bought a Logitech F710 Wireless Controller. Totally worth it.
