    Hey - So i have had the bba and pho for a while now, i got crazy taxi and ikarugu working ages ago, and had failed at gettin any of my own ripped games to play. So - found some time now, and came back to it - nice to see lots of new software etc and new builds of phoenix. so , full of optimism, i ripped metroid prime again, and that was fine - perfect. However, now i want to stream it back (im only using phoenix here v2.5 build 180) - i have tried every combination of loaders and servers possible i think lol - and the one which seemsto get farthest is pheonix, with acl1.2. This one actually sends some data - gets past the loading of the loader screen, sends data then crashes into darkness once more. Struggling to find reason for my failings - im using a router - pc 192.168.0.2 - gc 192.168.0.5 all using patch cable - confident all that works fine judging by the fact i just ripped a 1.2 gig file of metroid prime from the gamecube first time!

    Is Metroid Prime just not compatible? I cannot find a compatibility list if someone can point me in the direction of one i would be very much oblidged.

    Any help would be fantastic lads

    Thanks a lot

    Andy

    you problem may be that your network adapter may not be fast enough to support the information being sent to and from the gamecube i had to upgrade my network adapter just to stream games

    i had lag lockout's frezzes everything under the sun then i just decided to upgrade my network adapter and it took care of a lot of problems but really cost me loads of $$$$ to get it working well

    Dont think this is the problem - running at 10/100 mbps, perfect network tbh, it doesnt even get as far as streaming the games!

    you really need to check the connection speed of your network if your network connection speed is to slow you may need to get it fixed

    also what operating system are you running

    windows xp has a high tendency to slow down network connections you need to make sure your computer is connecting at the full 100 mps if it isn't your computer will have one hell of a time trying to stream games have fun>>>> if this doesn't work then im out of idea's on what it could be

    have you removed all the garbage data out of the backed up image or not?

    if you did you may have coruppted your file

    scotswahe,your ngc and pc ip is set wrong,it's suppost to be set to (GC) "192.168.1.32" (pc) "192.168.1.100" I can stream metroid prime 2 fine with these settings,no reason why you can't,change those settings and you should be ok ,i an using phenoix 2.50 ;0)

    I will try that thanks man, but essentially it shouldnt matter wot your ip is as long as they both know what each others is - its a really weird problem if it was an ip problem then it wouldnt be able to rip the games in the first place would it?

    dude,everyone that streams has their ip's set all those settings,except you and your saying it should'nt matter?

    I think you should take more advice instead of going against the grain and do it the right way instead of doing it your way,it's obvious your trying to ignore how it is suppost to be done,i've just been into the gc scene about 1 week,being i just bought a gc 5 days ago and i have over 10 different forums with the same tutorials and they all have ip settings like mine" PC IP address192.168.1.100 |
    NGC IP address to 192.168.1.32

    well,good luck :0)
