ProfBambam55 Posted March 17, 2018 Author Share Posted March 17, 2018 thanks @LoStraniero91 that was a lot of fun...i'm busy with fam right now but I'll post some updates later tonight including updating the list of games in the OP... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoStraniero91 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 Just a heads up: me and @ProfBambam55 tried 50 Cent and couldn't connect together. The game has no invite option and only relies on a server list where you choose where to join in. It could possibily work if you have 2 PS3 running on the same network, but as for now, you can't play coop yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the SBK games other than SBK 08 had trophies for downloading ghosts from the LBs etc which wouldn't currently work. They also relied on matchmaking which currently doesn't work either.

Going to try via wired and see if that makes a difference, really wanna get this UT3 working so get online champion lol. If anyone else is running and got it working, does everything look correct in this screenshot? I had the same issue...and yes, everything looks good...go wired on both ps3 and pc and let us know how it goes plz...going wired with both allowed me to connect...i'm guessing it's an important point in getting gonespy to work... If you can't connect even once both wired try disabling your firewalls to see if maybe that is the issue...disabling firewalls not recommended for extensive periods so if that turns out to be the issue you'll have one more little task before you're all set up...i.e. opening necessary ports/allowing gonespy access in firewall software... to add to how gonespy works here...this wasn't clear to me at first but it seems to be able to connect to other players there needs to be some kind of invite option, the players who are looking to player together need to be on each other friends list and all parties must be running gonespy to be able to successfully connect... that being said, i wonder if there is some way that we could connect to the same "server"...i would appreciate the input of all you technological geniuses out there on this one...does anyone have an ideas if we could manipulate the dns values so that it would allow us to connect to each other in games like 50 cent, where co-op is possible and enabled by gonespy but where there is no specific invite option...it lists a game of active lobbies that you can join which remained empty when we tested it earlier...i'm thinking that if i connected both of my consoles to gonespy (the ip address would be the same) the lobby would show my second console as an active joinable lobby since we are technically on the same server...i'm ordering a 2nd copy of 50 cent to test it out...does anyone have any thoughts on this and whether or not it or other options might work for players across the city/country/world/etc?... i forgot to mention that for the bulletstorm 200 challenges it remains to be tested still...when i looked at the statistics page in my stats it simply showed "loading..." meaning it's possible that the stats are tied to the old servers, meaning not attainable...we'll see...i'll test it out later this week as i'm in the middle of helping a group with the criminal mastermind challenge...i would appreciate if someone could help me with the 200 challenges...volunteers?...

APCGrayLocked Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 i forgot to mention that i have ethernet cables everywhere (only for the cellphone and psvita i use the wireless connection), but still, no connection between ps3 and pc (ps3 goes online only if i put the modem's ip. if i put the pc's static ip, ps3 don't go online). Although, my pc and my ps3 are not directly connected to the router. They're connected to an ethernet switch (this: https://images.ges.cz/images/pictures/8/8804814.jpg) that is connected to the router (my router is located on the hallway of my house).

I don't know much about technology but I would suggest connecting directly to your router with pc and ps3 and seeing if that works...again try disabling firewall as well if not working first time around...if no good then you know your issue is elsewhere... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TazDevilz1986 Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 (edited) I would like to give some game names if you guys can try them out: SBK Generations (Gamespy shutdown) MUD PS3 (Gamespy shutdown) MUD VITA?

BeautifulTorment Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Do you have to go through a set-up process each time you intend to play one of these revived games? For UT3 I have a few questions; 1. If someone has a Gonespy server up and running, do I have to go through a process aside from changing my PS3 DNS? 2. Do stats save? 3. How long is the UT3 boost? 4. Can PS3s from different IPs connect, or do I need to have multiple PS3s on one network? I think that's all the questions I have for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm keen to give this a go, it will take a while though and might be tricky due to our differing timezones. BTW I don't think connecting to the same Gonespy server will help - there's nothing in the code atm to link up people. It would only work if there's inviting via PS3's system. If the game had a LAN mode you could try xgaikai or whatever the thing is to make the two PS3s appear on the same LAN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know @NeM2k2 wants to eventually make a personal project out of bringing Ghostbusters back, but I can't say how someone would go about doing that. Since Gonespy is still new and the discussion over it has only just been revived, I think maybe people are requesting these games to come back or have an effort made to bring them back. I think once matchmaking could be fixed for a game, maybe more games even from other companies will be coming back because I'd imagine if he knows how to do it for one game, he'd know how to do it for most games. But it's great work that people have been doing here to help restore hope, I have to say thank you @LoStraniero91 for going out of your way to test some games out, even though you also have the platinum for some of them already, a lot of people wouldn't be making an effort to help people know if games were obtainable again if they had already done the game before. I hope this is the beginning of the full Gamespy server revival, I know every game can't be made obtainable again but for something like FEAR 2 to come back would be incredible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's all the questions I have for now. i'll try to answer these as best as i can...please realize i'm technologically constipated...once you set up maradns, deadwood, and gonespy and have them running on your pc you are good to go on whichever game you are trying out...if you stop playing and want to pick up where you left off on another day, yes, you will need to run/activate all of the programs again to be able to use gonespy... yes, everyone playing the game will need to have gonespy up and running on their end...meaning you will also have to install and set up gonespy and its related programs in order to connect to other players...these players will need to be on your friends list and the game will need to have some kind of direct invite option... i have no idea about this one...if stats are saved on your console then likely, yes... this ut3 guide suggests 8 hours but that an afk method is available of undetermined hours... again, if everyone is running gonespy then you can all play together...if you are self-boosting you can use multiple consoles while running only one version of gonespy on your pc...the ip address will be different for each of your consoles when logging on to psn but the primary dns will be the same... hopefully this answers some of your questions...would appreciate others to chime in if i've been inaccurate...not an expert by any means... p.s. apologies for double post...was trying to quote in previous post but couldn't get it to work...
