Hi all. So, after months of knowing a little about this, I've finally,
today, found out the last piece of info on this topic that I needed. So,
I'll now write a guide which will, if circulated to other gamers,
revolutionize multiplayer gaming... I think.
The PSP is the system I chose for this, mainly because, on PC, it's pretty
easy to set this up. On Android, you'll need sighted assistance, and a
pretty powerful device, and even that may not be enough, as I've not tried
it. Another reason I've chosen it is because all major games are
represented. Soul Calibur, Broken destiny, Mortal Kombat, Unchained, Tekkon
5 and 6, BlazBlue, Disidia Final Fantasy, Naruto, and Dragon Ball Z,
they're all there. So now that I've hopefully gotten your excitement and
motivation up, let's go!
First, get ppsspp, from ppsspp.org
Next, unzip the file you downloaded, and start the 64-bit .exe file. Put a
shortcut on your desktop if you want, it's the file you'll be using.
Next, close that poor instance of PPSSPP, and go into
memstick\psp\system\ppsspp.ini.
There, in that file of strange words where what is true and false is an
edit away, look for this line:
proAdhocServer = localhost
Replace it with this:
proAdhocServer = coldbird.net
This will set the online functionality to jump on the coldbird.net server.
while you're in this file, change the wlan to true, and the adhock server
to false. The reason for this is so that PPSSPP can access the network, and
so that the adhock server, which we won't need, won't interfere with things.
Now, you can play PSP games, offline and online! With fighting games, I
recommend doing some training/practice to find a character you're
comfortable with before jumping on this server, as some people may not go
easy on you. Also, this is not a blind-only server, so some will be playing
games that we cannot play.
As for setting up times for playing, I'm sure we can either use this list,
or audiogames forum, which isn't working right at the moment I think, could
just be me, although the list may be better, as filling the forum with all
that will get annoying for those who don't play video games, but there are
more people on the forum than on this list. Hmm. Any ideas about that? Now,
that last part...
pro.coldbird.net has a listing of what games are being played, and how many
people are playing. This will allow you to know if there are people playing
the game you are. So, this concludes this guide, I hope that someone finds
it useful, and anyone who can access the forum may put this guide up there
so everyone else can see it.
