can't see each other in lobby but can connect to adhoc server

[ZeroX4]

well like in tittle

was trying to play pc to pc with my cousin (he lives in other town) with no luck

options we did try

1 - direct connection (i have external IP im not behind router or any device any1 is able to connect to my pc from anywhere without any additional software)
2 - direct connection via port forwarding (my cousin have router so he disabled all his firewals antiviruses and router protection AND DID PORT FORWARDING)
3 - hamachi < joining to hamachi host ip
4 - tunngle < joining to tungel host ip


we forwarded all ports for hamachi tungel

game we tested are tekken 6 and street fighter alpha 3 max

we are able to see our IP's when we join adhoc server or when we leave it (the stand alone version of adhoc server) but we cant see each other in lobby

no matter if its built in ppsspp adhoc or that stand alone version effect is always the same

like we joined same server but other room? wtf?

it happens either if im the host either if he is hosting

like nothing from tutorials helped us in any case even reading trough any problem on this forum did not help

so if any 1 have any idea what could be wrong it would be cool

for anyone who would have same issue in future

me and my cousin did resolve our problem

but its kinda strange well seems there is no difference if we have same game region like that number which appears on top of ppsspp window after ppsspp version and before game name

but it does matter which ppsspp versions we use and it only works for us on tunngle

for example there is no matter if i am the host or does he is hosting but i need to use stable build and my cousin need to use dev build otherwise we are not able to see each other in game

also we need to use that stand alone ad hoc server (the one u can find on this forum u need to download it and launch it manually leaving command line window open) cause the one which is built-in pro ad hoc ppsspp do not work at all

and we are even able to use throttle in monster hunter like wtf?

-------------------------------------------------

also we dont know if it was any difference but we prefer not to touch this anymore

we did set port offset to 11155 which is tunngle port we also did forward it even so we already had me green and my cousin yellow faces in bottom right corrner

cross-region only works with standalone adhoc server because the built-in server doesn't have the cross-region database.

btw, by stable build do you mean v1.2 from here http://ppsspp.org/downloads.html ?

yep we both use 1.2 its just i use stable and he uses dev

and yea stable version is what u download on top of download page on the right section and dev build is what u get far far down from it

Have you ever played multiplayer with PPSSPP in the past? If yes then probably it's the PPSSPP problem , I have 1.1.1 and works good. Maybe try that instead of 1.2.
Also if you have the same region , it should work. If it still doesn't , check your friend's connection NAT type , NAT can be an issue really. I hope it's type 1.
