Hey guys - finally got streaming working - but needin a 100mbit loader - i tryied GCSIM but when starting it on 100mbit full duplex all i ever get is intialization errors. Does it work for you guys for every game!? Thanks CIao
try it again few times and it works, if still not, try to tweak everything, if still not work, get router or better network card, or use older gcsim loader that has no initialization feature. and it is same with every game.
It is your NIC I had the same prob. Either get a new NIC or go buy a network switch or a router. I got one for $10 at Fry's. With this method you do not use cross-over cables. S3-GCSIM works great for me now NO init erros at ALL! Good Luck
GCSim works awesome here. Looking on my router, I see it is in 100mbit mode. Transfers are much faster, too. The only problem I have is that I hear a buzzing noise every time data is transmitted. Anyone else get this? It used to be the music would stream slowly, but whenever data is transmitted, I hear a buzzing noise.
that buzzing noise is common problem, i have it too in metroid primes, but havent got fixed, try this, might work in some games: http://www.freewebtown.com/make86/files/audiofix.zip
Yes, the BBA can do 100Mbit. One thing you have to keep in mind is you can't lock your PC's NIC card at 100Mbit. It has to be set to autodetect, or use a 10/100 hub in between your PC and GC. PSO starts out at 10Mbit, and then GCSIM switches it up to 100. Some PC NIC cards may have problems detecting the change, or switching from 10 to 100 fast enough (Just guessing here.) GCSIM is much faster than previous loaders, however as many have pointed out it can't give you a full 100Mbit because of gamecube limitations.
