Make sure that LAN is enabled in the PPSSPP settings on both devices. On one device, the player should create a session (pick maps, settings, launch, etc) then the other player should search for the session, once one player connects the session can actually go in game.

Is it possible to add new eras like BF1 or something like that?

I can make any era I want but the thing that makes an era unique is custom characters which may never be possible.

As a suggestion:

Battlefront extreme for balanced and varied sides or dark times also for balanced sides and unique heroes. Consider throwing in some mappacks like Sol, dark space, or even ground to space alongside or standalone. Speaking of ground to space or atmospheric battles, Coruscant: modern warfare and tatooine at war would be great additions.

Of course this assumes that space isn't an issue...

When v8 happens (in whatever year) there will be a customization option that will let the player determine amount of AI across the game. I am thinking that the options will be 10, 16, 32, and maybe 64. The real PSP will be lagging bad after 16 but emulators and high end phones should run 32 and 64 well.

v7 should already have an XL game mode on 2 or 3 maps. Look for it, it's the same as conquest but with lots of AI.

AnthonyBF2 wrote:So it is here now, v7 of the PSP mods. From v6, you're getting 5-6 new custom maps but for now they'll only have conquest. Lots of graphical aspects have been updated in Bespin maps, Yavin Arena, SWBF1 Kamino, SWBF2 Kashyyyk, Polis Massa, Tantive, SWBF2 Mos Eisley, and SWBF2 Endor. Most maps with vehicles will feature higher detailed textures at 256x256 from 128x128. All hunt modes will feature higher definition character skins at 256x256 from 128x128.
For the more detailed textures, what did you do to accomplish this?
Different parameters to TextureMunge?
Increase memory pool sizes?

One thing he did was get rid of first-person view, which frees up both model and texture memory.

But also had to include the bigger textures too.
When 'TextureMunge' is called, it can take some options that affect the size/quality of the resulting textures.
Wondering if he used any special settings/options for Texturemunge (and if so, what were they).

Specifically looking at running SWBF2 on the XBOX 360 (which my TV says is rendered at 1080p), hoping that the Xbox emulator running on it is coded in such a way that we could use more memory and more detailed textures to achieve something visually closer to the PC version (since the Xbox 360 has 8X the memory of the original Xbox).

I've tried running higher resolution textures on my 360 with the Xbox mod with very little success. The problem is that the game itself sets hard-coded limitations -- memory pools (many games do) -- that you can't bypass. Theoretically we could do the same as AnthonyBF2 and take away things like first-person view to free up memory, but in the end there's a ceiling that, once hit, has us stuck.

Interesting. OK, thanks for the info.

In the PSP and future PS2 mod, I removed things that cleared up video memory + scaled up the existing texture files. I am using the source files that come with the PC version, and in the PC source, most textures are 512x512. In the future v8 PSP mod, all character textures will be 128 instead of their default 64. In game modes that only use a few characters, I scale the textures to 256.
