Went to sleep after successfully testing the crash-less EXE last night. Again, thanks for all your hard work, Madsci! I'm gonna play the heck out of Melty for years to come thanks to your client :3

@Funky-kun - Thanks for your help! Those alternate drivers did the trick perfectly. No more reboots for netplay! \o/

@Madscientist - Thanks for all your hard work <3 My weekend is starting, so I'll be sure to do some testing with the 2.0c client.

I have a pretty nasty bug I'm dealing with in CCCaster. It happens in 1.11 or in 2.0b.

The issue: More than half of the time when I quit MB after a set of matches (or even less than one game) against someone, my sound becomes bugged. It loops the same fraction of a second of audio again and again, and it sounds awful. It doesn't go away except after a reboot. Disabling / re-enabling devices doesn't work unless it the PC is rebooted.

I have a ASUS Xonar DG sound card with the latest drivers, and an onboard sound card based off of a common RealTek chips. It doesn't matter which device my sound is plugged into - both of them have the issue above.

It feels like there's something in the coding of CCCaster that doesn't gracefully stop the use of the sound device before quitting the MBAA.exe application. And closing CCCaster or MBAA's window can result in the same sound error that requires reboot. The only way to guarantee this doesn't happen is to not launch MBAA through CCCaster, which means no netplay

Let me know if you need any more information about my setup.

I have more testing to do, but I'm having problems doing triple button inputs like Heat on netplay, wakeup or even across the screen. I'm just using E for heat to bypass this for now, will test further on my days off.

Spectator mode can be added but it will take some work. Although I'm gonna focus on fixing usability problems first.

I was serious about setting up a donation fund. It's a great thing you're doing.

  Hallo

Just wanted to say thank you for your hard work. The netplay is very stable. Delay calculation appears pretty good.

There are a few bugs, of course... or maybe hazards that people should know. Maybe more FAQ-esque material?

I have a MC Cthulhu PCB that I am using. To get it to work with your config, I have to disable one of my axes (since Up/Down/Left/Right will register POV hat and X/Y Axis at the same time as intended). To do that, I had to plug in my stick while holding "Start" to disable one of the extra axes. Doesn't matter which.

You cannot resize the MB window while it's loading to the character select screen. Without soft-locking window resizing for a few seconds (dunno if this is even possible, maybe lock all input?), this is just something  people will need to be wary of.

The game/client will crash after one game after character win pose but before character art and winquote start appearing. This happened repeatedly, and was due to having automatic replay saving turned on, and my opponent set this option to Manual. Once this setting is changed to match, netplay works without issue.

This netplay is awesome, but is in an incomplete state without spectator mode *hint hint* Maybe set up a donation / beer fund for feature requests? I'd pitch in!

And a strange one: I have a Win8 tablet (Acer W500). It loads Melty slowly but it does seem to run it at 60 FPS. Sometimes the netplay client will error out saying that the system took too long to respond while loading. I was wondering if you could increase the timeout on this by just a bit?

All in all, minor stuff... except spectator mode

So for Friday night, you won't be by at all, even after work? Ted and Tucson will be coming by, so you'll be missing them.

I am officially hosting Melty for Friday night through to Saturday night / Sunday morning. I'm not kicking people out early or anything. bell's trip seems pretty dependent on him being able to play lots of games / session / practice IRL for Final Round. I need some confirmation from everyone on if they can make it, and if they CAN, when can they make it? Please respond ASAP.

I will be hosting for hosting for a night or two next weekend. I'm getting sick ATM, nose running like a river. Probably not coming over this weekend due to spreading the plague. Ted, I won't be able to house Tucson folks since bellreisa and SK will be staying over next weekend, but you're welcome to come by and play. I'll make a facebook event for that when I'm done working today

I'm at my rock climbing gym right bow, probably stopping by  Dippy's place a bit later tonight. Thrift shops await me in the meantime as I stumble around with my soreness.

Should we be looking towards NeoMaxico for potential exposure? Might get more players that way. Gonna bring it up again tonight.

:3 Sup Ted. Want the schedule a weekend for Tucson to come up and get some games? Or Tucson could host and we could travel, but you'd better be a challenge!

There's always next time. We did mention you about half a dozen times. I imagined you could be working late, so don't worry about it!

Ryd and I played many games last night, probably around fifty. H-F was a no call no show and will be terminated. 

I proposed this idea to Dippy through a text, but I wanted to run it by others as well: If we were to try and stream and hype up the Melty community, locally and nationally, I want to create a head-to-head cab. One with dual 1080p monitors, mounted sticks (no need to swap out joysticks), and a webcam on both sides. Dual independent player view + game view + switch cameras to commentators and their webcam. These head-to-head setups would need to be easily broken down for travel, which isn't that daunting of a task.

My only problem? I don't own a wood shop. I might need to talk to Frank Castle about this.

Remember, Stream gives you paid training! If you quit during your training weeks, then they will only pay you minimum wage. But if you work one single day on the phones and then quit? Yep, you get full pay, thankyouverymuch.

So, first weekend of the new year us almost upon us. let's coordinate a time and meeting place according to our personal availability. thankfully, i always have weekends free, so i can host Friday or Saturday nights. let us all know when you're free (you are always free in Melty, so not that  kind of free).

Everyone else has tapped everything I might care about except one thing: Borderless fullscreen mode - This would eliminate streaming problems I'm pretty sure. Borderless 800x600 is probably best for tournaments.

Please dont bite my head off for this. I know it might seem like a "dumb" question but I need to know:

How do we get this game if we dont pirate it?

It's a good question, even if other people are dicks about it. MBAACC is only being released with the Blu-Ray release of Carnival Phantasm volume 3. The problem? The place I preordered from was cdjapan.co.jp, and they're sold out. Amazon.co.jp doesn't ship to the USA, so you could use an import service to purchase it from there, and then someone will send it to you. Unfortunately, I don't have any examples, so it's a great time to brush up on your foreign Googling skills

AZ scene getting ready for MBAACC release! So, friends, should we stay in this thread, or is it a good time to birth another one? I mean, the last message on the thread was from Tempered like half a year ago! Gosh!

I'm inclined to make a new thread and maintain it strongly.

Melty Blood Auditorium / Re: The MB:AA:CC:PC thread: at least the netplay will be good

For preorders that ship to the USA, try: http://cdjapan.co.jp

I got mine for ~$170 w/ shippping. Nasty price, but they're an old and reputable company.
