They still have HF tournies?  Man that would be awesome.  They never had tournies back in my day (well not in Upper Hutt anyway).

Sadly I can't travel to Aucks to play games, I have a family now.  However like I say if anyone in Welly is keen for a few games.

How often are the Auckland tournies?

Damn that sucks that you won't be able to make it bro. Redtie and I are planning on making the trip from Chch  :D

But if you got GGPO up and running I'm more than happy to have a few games with you at HF online  :)

Cool I've never tried ggpo - what's it like?  I tried SFHF on PS3 but found the lag a pain.

I'm on a MAC but I'll create a win partition and boot into that to install ggpo.  I take it uses MAME roms?

Nick4now

Shitloads better than HDR on psn. I hate playing that online not just because of lag but the amount of times it DCs  >:(

As for roms yep it takes MAME roms. You'll actually wanna get Hyper Street Fighter 2: Aniversary Edition (HSF2.zip) though because HF seems to screw up a lot on GGPO for some reason.

Sweet I still have the full MAME rom set (used to have a cab) so that shouldn't be a prob.  Now for a controller.........

Nick4now

Since you have a PS3 I'm assuming you have a PS3 pad too? You can use that if you download the SIXAXIS driver  :)

I do but I'm far too unco to use the PS3 pad for SF.  I saw a 6 button arcade controller on firstin the other day.  It's prob shyte but it was only $40 odd.

BTW what are the details for the Auck tournament?

Widen your eyes, there are always mountains higher than the ones you see.

Just booked my flight for the 10th of December  ;D Just waiting on Redtie to book his too and then we'll register on the Xmas Damager thread.

Maybe go as Team "The Only Brownies in Chch"   :D

Mac partitioned, GGPO installed with SF2HF anniversary edition.  Stink that it has to be anniversary edition, I prefer the original HF.

Just played my first game of SF2HF (not anniversary edition) online using GGPO - fucking awesome!  Played an aussie and it was practically lag-free!

Now I need to invest in a stick.  I see a whole bunch of sticks on play-asia, can anyone recommend one for around the $100 mark?

Cheers.

Haha I knew you would be happy with GGPO  ;D Even playing some Japanese players is practically lag-free  :)
