What version of MHFU do you play?

[DeimosDX]

I want to know what should be the standard for online, as you cant talk with the people you find on coldbird.net

EU and US should see each other by default using coldbird server. In fact this seems to include JP version as well, through unsure if that wouldn't cause at least minor glitches when jp region player would use some stuff that western versions are missing since it had more content.

Note that this cross region play might actually not work when using ppsspp built-in ad hoc server, but AFAIK there were cwcheats to rename region codes for those games which would enable it. ~ Good place to mention that outside of popular myth cheats doesn't have to be disabled to play ad hoc in ppsspp, bad cheats can always break games and psp had many bad cheats which should never be activated all the time even when they do work, but it's nothing directly related to ad hoc nor ppsspp.

The missing content is all there, just had its text stripped to "dummy" and its means of obtaining made impossible.

Wow gotta check that region swap cheat code, im not having luck in coldbird with most random people.

No need for the cheat codea because pro adhoc server can crosslink the region if supplied with database.dB (13kb) size. Builtin pro adhoc server only crosslink 3 games and mhfu is not included. Use adhoc server exe and get the database from linux build. My openvpn server already implement it so all version mhfu can play on server

[LunaMoo]

Yeah as mentioned Coldbird's server doesn't really need such codes as it already does that via it's built-in database.

I belive PPSSPP built-in server only has this short list ~ just 2 example games each swapping one region actually one swapping 2 regions, another not doing anything;p.

Problems playing with others would be either client side as again ad hoc is unfinished and pretty messy and/or connection issues, maybe firewall or something else blocking either you or the other person or just trying to play with person on the other side of the world which is less than ideal. Without cross-region play you wouldn't even see players from other game versions online.

Thanks for the info LunaMoo. I know its not related to the topic, but i noticed some people can play in 2 player games but not with 3 or 4, is there a known cause to this?

I know theres some workarounds posted, just curious about the root of the problem, as it happens even with DMZ and firewall services disabled.

Sorry for the necro, but could someone link me to the DB file on the Adhocserverpro build(assuming its on github) or the link for the Linux version so I can dig it out myself, and info on where in PPSSPP this file would go?

EDIT: Just did some digging through the latest release for the match to the file you linked, a whole ton of games have been added, including MHFU which was my target, sorry again for the necro
