I've mostly been interested in shooters recently (above pic was from Rapid Hero/Arcadia,) but it's kinda of hard to text chat while playing them given the auto-scrolling nature, and I'm not sure you can pause the emulator in multiplayer. I wouldn't mind playing a beat 'em up, but I'm probably not very good at them.

>>95124There is Soku which is a 2D fighting game. But instead of standard kicks and punches you fly around in the air and throw shit at each other. You can graze. It's really fun. There is also an traditional SHUMP game that's 2-player. I can't remember the name of it. It's based on Twinkle Star Sprite's gameplay. Each play gets half of the screen. You make chains by shooting stuff quickly. It sends crap to the other player's area which he can shoot and send back to you. You keep going until one of you gets KOed. Not sure if it has online play.
If you want to play something like this you should check out Twinkle Star Sprites on Neo-Geo. You can play it on fightcade. Don't bother with the steam version it's shit and no one plays it. You'll get more players on fightcade.
Is anyone here interested in playing Twinkle Star Sprites or any fightan games? I play BlazBlue:CF fairly often and it got rollback netcode last year. Servers are still very active. I'd also be down for some Soku.
Oh and this reminds me. I've been playing A LOT of Touhou Spell Bubble on a Switch emulator lately. I've only played the CPU because I don't have a Switch and have no one to test online play through the emulator with. I hear online play is pretty fun. If you haven't tried out touhou spell bubble yet you really should. It's puzzle bobble with a music mechanic added. Really Really fun. Most of the popular shit like Bad Apple is included. If you want I can share the ROM+DLC I've been using. I think it includes all the DLC songs.
Do let me know if anyone wants to play fightan or fightan SHUMPs. It's easy to get games going because we only need 2 people. I don't care if you body me and I go 0-100. I like playing and getting better. If I body you just ask for advice or ask me to switch characters/games. I'm up for anything (I mostly play lolis of course. Platinum the Trinity is my main on BlazBlue and I play a pretty decent pocket Rachel)

>>116386Are you thinking about Acceleration of SUGURI 2?
No.116389
>>116387>Acceleration of SUGURI 2?Maybe. If it's a copy of Twinkle Star Sprite's gameplay then probably so. But I know there was an obscure doujin touhou game with the same mechanic. I just think it came out before online play was common or being included in doujin releases.
You're better off playing Twinkle Star because it can run on any device you own and the gameplay was already perfect. Probably easier to find a game as well since it has gotten more popular over the last year or two since some normalfags discovered fightcade and bought the steam edition to "support the developers". DO NOT buy the steam edition. The devs get nothing and it's really really bad. The emulation is horrible.
Speaking of Fightcade the v2 release is garbage. While it added support for more games it made two horrible changes:
>GUI became a discord clone running in an embedded web browser (v1 had IRC-style GUI and everything didn't lag your computer for no reason)>They want you to "donate" to have more than 3 games in your "list" at a time. Even though it's an artificial limit that can be by-passed by removing a game and adding another. Or simply blocking some of their kuso javascript code.I prefer v1. v2 has no improvements beyond hooking into more emulators that could have worked fine with the old interface. They've only pushed a new version to appeal to discord users and farm for donations. They aren't even doing anything at this point. They're taking other people's emulators and GGPO and combining them with a kuso local webpage. They even broke all the old replays for v1 users awhile back and their website for stats, brackets, and replays is constantly down. No warning at all. I lost years of replays between myself and my friend that died in 2019.
I've been considering making my own fork of FightCade v1 to fix these problems. Added support for new emulators and games isn't hard. Updating the GUI a bit wouldn't be hard either (it could be improved). I just don't have the time to work on it right now.
One major thing I want to add to a "fightcade" style application is support for native Windows games. I want to be able to play newer games like BB:CF,GG+R, DBZF, SF4, and other modern games with online play included. I also want to include support for NESiCAxLive games. Which are straight copies of the games running on Candy Cabs (all modern arcade games are powered by Windows). This would allow you to play all these modern games online with rollback network for free on a platform that won't ban you for no reason. Fightcade won't do it because they're attempting to cash-in and go legit. They want to profit from other people's work without getting in trouble with the big vidya companies. So they'll never add support for a game for these modern fighting games.
Since I don't have time to do the full blown project yet what I've been doing is logging traffic on games like BB:CF and GG with the offical servers. I have enough logs now that I can easily replicate how those servers work. Since fighting games are mostly p2p after lobby/match making step it isn't that hard. For the true arcade games I'm still trying to figure out how the networking works. I don't have proper traffic logs. I need to spend a few days in Nippon and talk an arcade owner into letting me log some traffic (aka sneak something on to their network for a few days and come back for logs later). If I could figure out how the networking works for those it would be really helpful. There is an entire automatic distro system set-up in-network to allow arcade owners to instantly swap games and download them from master servers. The network is really interesting. It also tracks user stats across the entire country using smart cards. This means most of this could be easy to emulate and re-purpose for our new fightcade-like network.
I think this is worth the effort because it would allow us to build up a userbase of people that are playing to have fun. We could have a nice little community with built in text/voice chat and all the usual fun stuff from networks like Xbox Live/PSN without the cancer. We could even do in-network sharing of the ROMs/games using p2p solutions. So once you had an account and installed the client you wouldn't be forced to chase down random binary files or fuck around with finding the right copy of a ROM. You'd just have to be willing not to run it for-profit. That way the owner/admin could remain anonymous and ensure there was no one to sue. You could even break it into two parts like they do with fightcade:
>Here is the client>you'll need to hunt down a random json file to enable the auto-download features>we don't host anything illegal here lol>reminder not to talk about piracy on the offical chat channels and discussion board!EZ.
Do let me know if anyone wants to play. I only play games like 3 hours a week now. I'd much rather play them with a friend. Offline play and playing randoms on steam gets kind of boring. Especially on games like BB and GG where I end up running into the same 20 or so people over and over again.

>>116389It sucks that FBNeo is only available for FC2, since that fixed the input lag I couldn't get rid of in FBAlpha.
No.116395
>>116394There is no reason why it shouldn't work in v1 with minimal effort. Emulator devs have been acting like sellouts for years with this BS. They all want to cash-in on the 20+ years of work done by others with some netcode additions they didn't even write and a few modifications. They refuse to release source code anymore or play fair with the greater community. They even keep exploits for softmodding to themselves now and shill for companies like Nintendo. The Nintendo emulation scene is the worse to be involved with. They actually go so far as to dox people sharing copies of ROMs and add malicious code to their emulators and loaders to prevent people they deem bad from using them. The old upsidedown Wii homebrew channel fiasco is nothing compared to what they're doing now.
I basically want to build a similar account/registration system like fightcade did and hook it into every emulator I can. That way you could enjoy some TvC for Wii alongside your KoF98 on Neo-Geo or your 3rd Strike on CPS2. You could challenge people or have real match-making and leaderboards. The "killer feature" of fightcade is the global account system. There is absolutely nothing unique about the underlying emulation.
What I would do is clean up the interface and release game packs. Start with like 5 games Fightcade doesn't support. Slowly add support for their more popular games like 3rd Strike. If you can get the 3rd Strike players to migrate you've captured 90% of their community. It wouldn't be hard to improve upon their emulation of 3rd Strike and the crappy matchmaking set-up they're using (that's broken most of the time anyway). Fightcade v2 is effectively still a beta. They fixed nothing from the initial beta release. They do not even bother to test most of the games they claim to have support for. They just happen to work because the emulator they're using added GGPO support recently.
I would also run regular events around new games being released. Even have achievements and other goodies for them to encourage people to try them. That way you don't end up with 30 people playing 3rd Strike beside 100 ESLs playing KoF all day with no one else using the network.
I may make this my goal for 2024. I set a goal for 2023 and finished that by July. I'm sure I could get at least partial support up and running for BB:CF and some older games like 3rd Strike going in about a week. Most of the time would be spent writing the server logic and a new native client for Windows instead of relying on Google Chrome like the lazy Fightcade "devs" decided to use.
