After a lot of trial and error getting the mame, rom, and kailera set up me and Bill307 played a few SF 3s games. It was very laggy but still fun.

He lives 3k miles away so its as good as it gets I think.

Anyone live on the west coast who wants to give it a try with me?

Ahaha this is awesome and terrible at the same time! The game runs smoothly on Average or possibly Good (15 or 20 keyframes/sec, respectively). But the latency is pretty bad. Wake up games consist of deciding what your opponent is going to do and pressing the right buttons before you or your opponent even gets up!

I think it's better on Excellent (30 keyframes/sec), even though the game runs slower and the sound g g g g o o o o e e e e s s s s ... l l l l i i i i k k k k e e e e ... t t t t h h h h i i i i s s s s. But because the game runs slower, the latency is shorter in game time, so parrying and stuff is not so silly

.

Honestly, it's not nearly as good as real, latency-free 3s, but it's still fun

even though the gameplay is quite shitty to be honest (b/c of the huuuuge lag), it's still surprisingly fun hahaha.

Windjammers was awesome!

lol @ the quote

Haji you live closer to me than Spor, I think. We should play sometime

.

Anyone else wanna play some fun games later today? Setup instructions:

1. Download and unzip MAME++ with Kaillera, v0.118u1 here:
http://ddememame.hp.infoseek.co.jp/
(direct link: http://ddememame.hp.infoseek.co.jp/mameppk_bin_gcc-0.118u1-20070811.7z )
(v0.118u2 is out now too, I notice)

You can unzip it into your current mame32 folder if you want. If you can't unzip it, then get the latest version of WinRAR to unzip it.

2. Find and download sfiii3.zip . It should contain the following:
10
20
30
31
33s000.chd
40
41
50
51
60
61
sf33usa.bin

If any of the files are missing, DL them and add them to the .zip file. Place the .zip file in your mame32 "roms" folder.

3. Download sfiii3n.zip and place it in your "roms" folder as well. This allows you to play the "JAPAN 990512 NO CD" version. You can get it from this zip file here:
http://www.speedyshare.com/928663165.html
It should contain the file "sfiii3_japan_nocd.29f400.u2".

4. Run mameppkgui.exe . Audit all games. Now you should see TWO Third Strike roms available. One will say "(USA 990512)" at the end and the other will say "(JAPAN 990512 NO CD)". The former corresponds to sfiii3.zip and the latter corresponds to sfiii3n.zip . If you don't see the NO CD one, make sure you aren't filtering out clones (to fix this, try going to Options -> Reset Defaults and reset the UI and folder filters).

5. I've heard the game de-syncs if you play full-screen, so right-click on the rom, choose "cp3s.c Properties", go to Display, and enable Run in a Window.

6. Now run the NO CD version to make sure everything is working OK and set up your controls.

7. Exit the game and return to mame. Go to File -> Netplay (or whatever it's called). Allow most of the servers to refresh. Pick one with a low ping and click Connect. The rest should be straightforward

Step 5 1/2 - You must enable joystick in the same place and then set up the buttons in game by pressing Tab.
I will host the complete rom files later when I have time. Right now I'm late for work!

step 8 - click 'waiting games tab' then click the 'location', 'game name', or 'emulator' tab to filter your game version etc .

Ok I permahosted the files and i consolidated them into 1 zip (138mb) so you can skip 1-3.

Who wants to play?

DL Link: (hold on trying to get upload finished)

edit- can't get a host atm, pm me if you want full zip.

Freak that crap. I'm buying a PS2 and gonna make a custom joystick. Me and my friends have decided to have a little race to see who becomes better at Street Fighter 3. Right now I have a little edge on him in SF3 but he rocks me in CvS2.

you can press 'Home" to open chat dialog in game.

can i dual install 117 and 118 ? where can i get the USA no cd rom?

a lot seem to use that as well.

Bill where did you get 117 ??

Is there a way to maybe turn off the music or background? might make it less laggy?
