*UPDATE* Piccoli avanzamenti per il CF PRO Online (aka AT PRO o CF PRO C) Opzioni

[kakarotto]

Il progetto CF PRO C (aka AT PRO) continua, lentamente ad andare avanti. Ricordo che permetterebbe al CF PRO di utilizzare i giochi che hanno l'ad Hoc mode (quindi il multiplayer LOCALE) Online, direttamente da Psp, senza bisogno di un interfacciarsi ad un programma su Pc quale Kai. Nel video è possibile vedere una primissima versione Beta con la quale riuscii a giocare Online a GodEaterBurst.

Dopo questa premessa, passiamo alle novità sull' AT PRO. Coldbird è passato da un sistema basato su un Server ad uno che funziona come il peer2peer. Questo gli ha permesso di avere simili prestazioni senza la necessità di dover pagare il Server stesso. Altra notizia è quella che sta andando avanti nell'emulare la libreria dei moduli Ad Hoc necessari.
Non abbiamo date presunte di rilascio, quindi vi invito a continuare a seguirci. Se tutto andasse come sperato, immaginate di trovare su GoPsp un sottoforum dedicato all'AtPro, dove è possibile incontrarsi per giocare alcuni titoli che indubbiamente sarebbero stati molto più interessanti con l'Online ( per es. Monster Hunter).
Vi lascio alle parole di Coldbird

It has been a while since I posted an update here but things have been moving, so don't worry.

Since last time I posted here I've finished up some more library exports, even though they are currently stubbed out until I get to properly implement them.

This resulted in something brilliant, bringing us a big step forward: Mixed Modules.

No longer do I have to replace the full Adhoc Library, it's enough for me to replace only pspnet_adhoc.prx, pspnet_adhocctl.prx and pspnet_adhoc_discover.prx now.

The biggest troublemaker, pspnet_adhoc_matching.prx no longer is a troublemaker at all, since I can just skip it! That's right.

What this module does is organize the network logic for "dumb programmers" aka. Game-Developers, but inside it's code all it does is use pspnet_adhoc.prx functions...

As I already have those emulated, Sonys own module now works against them by emulating Adhoc for us.

On the other side, I'm currently restructuring the network layout of ATPRO to work on a true peer 2 peer basis without a core server.

So what does this mean? I save myself money, thus reducing hosting costs tremendously, requiring less donations to keep this alive and you guys still get the full experience.

This will be achieved via a IP-Table that every PSP has saved, this table in turn will be used for the peerfinding and data transmission.

In the previous revision of ATPRO it was required to connect to a central server that managed the active peers to find its way around... this time around the peer management will be done by the enduser himself.

The only downside produced by this will be that you cant "randomly find people online" any longer... which means players will have to use forums to organize gamerooms.

I plan to release a phpBB3 plugin eventually that allows users to create IP-Tables for ATPRO gaming with a single click by choosing people from their forum friendlist.

I am hoping that wololo might volunteer to make /talk the first ATPRO forum in existence.

As for the earlier question yes it will let you play Monster Hunter in all variations released so far (MH Games utilize PDP, PTP and Matching Library Calls, all of those should work well with the first release of PRO Online).

Earlier games (pre 4.0 fw sdk) will deal trouble though (not all but some), as Sony allowed "Gamemode" back then... a token ring network implementation that I'm not going to support in the first revision of PRO Online, simply because its too much work and would delay this thing even more than its already been.

La prima release-NOTA: non si hanno ancora date di uscita- dovrebbe esser compatibile con i vari Monster Hunter.
Niente invece per i giochi usciti prima del fw 4.00
