yea, right now he's doing some testing with my psp and some stuff to try and get it running. But because he's doing it for free I can't expect him to drop everything for it so it could take some time... and yes I will be glad when they make a way to connect that is easier.... maybe Wipeout Pure 2 (or something along that) with infrastructure.... *hint hint*Quote:

@Asa: I should point out that you also wiped me out on Gamma, and were the winner of the night. We were close and I could have had a few more tied tours if I didn`t choke at the end of some races like a scared bunny rabbit.
30.3.06 Results: (no eliminations and only 2 racers so points don`t matter)
Classic 2: Asa 3 - Spk 1
Gamma: Asa 4 - Spk 0
Omega: Asa 0 - Spk 4
Alpha: Asa 3 - Spk 1
Until tonight then...... ;) Hope more can join us.

Good luck getting it sorted. I have a couple of links that might help you. There`s a new FAQ on the xlink forums which has some excellent basic information and some good links.
http://texas.teamxlink.co.uk/forum/v...ic.php?t=13815
(sorry I can`t get text links, whatever you call them, to work on the new forum at the moment)
Also, sorry to link to myself, but post #183 in the Xlink Kai topic gives further info, and a more detailed approach in some ways, if anyone struggles with Xlink`s own connection guide.

Finally, yes let`s hope for proper infrastructure gaming on the next version of Wipeout. I can`t imagine there won`t be. :D
Quickly alternate from 2097 to pure is something great : they absolutely have the same roots for pleasure.
Hey guys , Kai needs you for tonight !
Thanks a lot to Martin for joined us yesterday.
It was so intense during our tours changing leader each lap on each tracks depending on good weapons choice.
Purely amazing :cowboy
Don't remember exactly the result of all our tours ( maybe stephen ? ) but i know everyone won at least a tour .
Yes we were really close eachothers , such as close as to avoid the plasma of El and fire mine to blow el's ship in the meantime.:bomb
Now we are waiting for mister Big Al to join us asap :banzai
Yeah it was a great night of racing, and one of the most memorable purE moments for me ever: hitting Lunar with a plasma over the entire lenght of the start/finish straight of CL1 sagarmatha!
had my first time on kai today (thanks again to eL for helping me :) ) and it was great... even when I lost all the way (is it something if I say backwards quake ;) )
My ping was bad though, so I've to fix this before I can join to your tournaments. Be sure you will get one more last-position-pilot in your meetings in near future ;)
I am glad we finally got it working for you Max! Oh and sorry about blasting your ass ;) I was thinking of going easy on you, but as soon as i saw you on the grid in a TRIAKIS, my vision went red and I only thought KILL KILL KILL hehe - result: 2 backward quakes, one of them lethal. YES, YOU HEARD ME, I KILLED A TRIAKIS MUHAHAHAHA :D
El, I`m watching you....;) if you want to keep you alive?
stevie;)
ahahahahah :D
back in time I used to play with AG-5Y5 and Assegai. The most parts of my gamesave are played with these ships.
But I gave up playing with these at the moment I realised that I can fly better with Triakis - even when I like the other teams more.
Maybe I will have to take a close look to AG-5Y5 and Assegai again - just to get back my honor ;)
Yeah Maxx ! Happy to see you there among us on Kai.
Tell us when you will be ok for a session.:)
Trust stevie & me : Triakis is the most efficient ship and probably the fastest on most of tracks.
ok, here's my decision about the ships:
I will use AG-5Y5 when I'm playing with eL.
And Triakis when I'm playing with eL and the others :D
;)
no, really: made a league with AG-5Y5 a few minutes ago and I really like the ship - esspecially in terms of design and character. But that's not the main thing on the track, so Triakis is still the better choice. Even when AG-5Y5 features better accelerating.
Both ships are fun for me, maybe I'm better with this and this one, but imo fun is the thing that counts most. :)
There is no doubt that Triakis is the most efficient ship in phantom class, I think by now we can definitely state that as a fact. Still, even though I could potentially be faster in a Triakis, I just can't be bothered to betray my beloved Assegai. It's just too beautiful to fly, y'know.
I've a question about Xlink.
When I played there the last time with eL he told me my ping was bad. Is there a way to look at my own ping so I don't need anybody that has to look at it.
I don't want to come to the next meeting and then there's my ping still that bad. Also there's no one online I could check my ping with.
Is there a way I can check my settings and stuff in Xlink by myself?
You could try going into other arenas. The ping gives you the quality of connection between your PC and others, so if you see low pings, then your ping must be ok too, obviously. If you only see high pings everywere you look, then yours is probably bad.
It`s possible to play with a ping over 200, though this isn`t ideal and will limit the number of players the game can support without lag.
Another tip is to always plug your PSP into mains power. This won`t affect your ping, but any drop in power can cause your ship to appear jumpy and laggy to people you`re playing against.
you can not check your ping, because ping is a number that indicates how good the connection between 2 players is, not just your own connection speed. You can check your line speed here, everything above 150 KByte/Sek should be sufficient for xLink. But I suspect your main problem is that you have some programs on your PC using bandwith without you knowing it. We already talked about installing ZoneAlarm on your PC anyway, that should fix any problems.
this one, eL?
I'll scan the computer now with AntiVir. I leave the PC in 20 min. to watch Star Wars Episode II in TV, so the scanner will have anough time for doing his job.
If the link above is the right one I'll download the program and check again if I've unwanted processes running in the background.
yes, Max, that's the one. It gives you an alert everytime a program tries to access the internet, and you get the choice of allowing or denying it (you can also check a box so the choice is remembered, so you don't have to allow/deny the same program over and over again). you will be surprised how many alerts you will get, even from simple things like your mouse software, checking for version updates every 15 minutes! once you get rid of all this useless stuff, your ping should be alot better.
If all of this this doesn't work , the problem could be somewhere else :
A possible explanation could be the system you use to receive internet in your house .
If it's a wifi modem , it may causes some issue with the ping : ok it's pretty rare but i have got 3 people i know who get that problem playing Kai. 2 of them have an old livebox ( wifi modem) from Wanadoo : their ping is always bad, sometimes goes up & down ( from 50 ms to 400 & bad ) a 3rd one came from UK.
Have you disabled your Windows XP firewall (if you have xp of course )?
ok, eL, I got it now.
The program is a bit annoying at the beginning, esspecially because it blocks nearly everything (wasn't able to go online as well).
Is it possible to turn off that window that appears every time when you've started the PC?
I don't wanna turn off the wohle program, just that window.
PS: it asks avery time again if it should block "generetic host system for Win32". Block or not block? There're several processes appearing I've never heard of, so I also don't know if they're actually dangerous so I should block them or not.
