[Tutorial] Android-Host LocalMultiplayer using PortableWifiHotspot

[xboxmandude]

So basically I need 2 phones
One with the apk installed
Change the Mac address + IP of both phones
Launch the app
Connect to the phone via WiFi hotspot and it should work??
Is that right?

Yes, one of the phone need the adhocserver.apk if you're using official PPSSPP builds, but if your're using my build you don't need it anymore because AdhocServer is already integrated into PPSSPP on my build

Make sure both phones have different MAC and pointing to the same AdhocServer IP address

You'll need to connect both phones to the wifi hotspot before launching adhocserver or ppsspp

Yes but can you give an Android version of your latest build

Is there a way to play with players without being near each other or on the same WiFi?
I wanna play with my friend both at different houses on different wifi

[paulaz2]

nc50lc is that ip adress for adhoc mode or infrastructural

[nc50lc]

For Adhoc Mode, since we're using the AdhocServer Application.
I'll would like try it first to confirm, if I have the time. So wait for my feedback.

For what Game is it? Some of the 'working" Games in the list are still having issues in Android, like Tekken6, GEB, etc. If not there are ticks and tricks that have to be done in the settings.

UPDATE

Success! but not as I said before.

Instructions:

->Connect your & his Phone to your router, and take note of your IP Address if you will host the AdhocServer. (ex. 192.168.0.14 you can find it in wifi settings-click the SSID/name of your router)

->In PPSSPP system setting: check enable wlan, input your IP Address in AdhocServer & Randomize your MacAdress. In the other Phone, Put the same IP Address, but make sure MacAdress is different.

->Start AdhocServer, don't kill it. Only for the host Phone. (If you're using the build with built-in AdhocServer, skip this step)

->Start PPSSPP, Launch the Game.

I've waited 27sec before the second player appears in the room.

I always test it with MHFU for it is the most compatible game in Adhoc Multiplayer mode.

The only solution is Coldbird's Prometheus Server, but it seems like Android-Android Online Multiplayer suffers from instability. Only good with Android to PC.

In MHFU, with the proper settings and ping, we can see each other in the guild hall but get broken when starting a quest.

nc50lc let me try naruto ultimate ninja impact wit dis latest ip adress

nc50lc let me try naruto impact wit d latest ip adress

it did nt wrk even my miami vice cant connect

[nc50lc]

it's not new, I'm just testing what I recall from the old thread that was gone.

I don't own those games, sry.
But it seems like most of the games in the list are working only using AdamN's Build provided in the thread itself. Have a little backread to those 44pages, you might find some useful information.

Try onelight's apk too: Built-in Adhoc Server
Do the same procedure in Page1 minus the Adhocserver.apk step.
