- 6a. Where to Find Matches
- A new Steam group has been formed with several active members regularly looking for
- matches (http://steamcommunity.com/groups/korewamelty). Players of all skill levels are encouraged to
- join and hop in the chat to find a match partner. Most members are currently in North America but
- everyone is welcome.
- You can also seek matches via IRC in #mbaa (channel) on mizuumi.net (server). If you do not have an
- IRC client, you can use this mibbit link to join the channel via your web browser:
- http://bit.ly/y5e2JX
- Make sure to have your port forwarded (more on that below).
- 6b. Best Practices
- | I am experiencing lag and/or disconnects. What can I do?
- Your connection to your match partner is poor or unstable. Try the following:
- 1. Always stop any downloads/uploads/streams/torrents/etc that are running before hosting. Be aware
- that if you are on a shared connection your experience will be affected by the internet use of
- your roommates/family.
- 2. Do not use a wireless connection if possible.
- 3. During poor connection Melty Blood netplayers can experience what is known as a "desync". This
- means that the clients are no longer communicating with each other correctly. If the other player
- stops moving, moves in a fixed pattern, whiffs in empty space or neither starts a new match or
- leaves after a match has ended you may have experienced a desync. If a desync occurs, simply exit
- and rehost.
- 4. If you are experiencing a significant amount of desyncs while hosting with the netplay tool, try
- hosting without it to allow the client to use its native delay calculation.
- 5. It is strongly recommended to play people as near to you as possible. Most issues experienced with
- netplay are due to a poor connection between the two players, the risk of this is significantly
- reduced when the players are geographically near each other.
- | My connection is OK but I am still experiencing lag. What is happening?
- Melty Blood netplay is more resource intensive than other modes of the game. Many players find that
- although their computer can run versus/arcade/training mode that they will experience hardware-based
- lag during network play. The following steps may help:
- 1. Under the Option menu turn off Stage Animation, Character Filter and Screen Filter. Also set your
- resolution to the default size (640x480) either in this menu or when starting Melty Blood.
- 2. Open your Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) while Melty Blood is running. Go to the Processes
- tab, click the Image Name column header to order the list alphabetically and find MBAA.exe. Right
- click MBAA.exe and select High under priority.
- 3. In the Task Manager (see step 2) Right click MBAA.exe again and choose Set Affinity. If you have
- two CPUs listed, uncheck all items except the last CPU. If you have four or six CPUs listed,
- uncheck everything but the last two.
- 6c. Hosting (How to Forward Ports)
- In order to host you will need to configure your router to forward a port. In depth guides can
- usually be found for your router at http://portforward.com/ which allows you to search by router
- manufacturer and model. A general idea of the process for most routers:
- 1. Open Run (Start Menu > Run or Windows Key + R) and type "cmd". In the Command Prompt window type
- ipconfig.
- 2. Find your computer's IP address (this will also show in the hosting screen in Melty Blood) and the
- default gateway (commonly 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1).
- 3. Type the default gateway into your web browser's address bar.
- 4. You may be prompted to login. The default username and password depends on your router model, you
- may be able to find this in the website mentioned earlier or through Google.
- 5. Once logged in you will be looking for port or application settings. This area may be labeled
- connection rules, security, gaming or something similar. If you are unable to locate these
- settings, you may be able to Google the information for your router using the manufacturer and
- model information.
- 6. Set port 46318 to forward to your IP (found in step 2) for TCP and UDP.
- 7. Save the changes and exit.
- 8. Check your port (http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/)
- 9. Start hosting and have someone try to connect.
