IaMP Status: Average player. Can pull off a few mid-screen and corner combos and started playing around the same time as Xiaounlimited.
IaMP Characters: Yuyuko
I don't play SWR
Info: Mostly play PvP matches against Xiaounlimited, Ryukickass, .dot, and Frozen Beat. Rarely ever touch Arcade/Story mode. Usually available to play at anytime when I'm online.

Could I ask why you guys don't play SWR? The game has some major issues, but it's still very playable and nothing is game-breaking, and Tasofro has a history of making major gameplay changes in patches, so you know they're gonna try to fix it.

*EDIT*

I now have Hamachi and my pseudo is Otakucore on it!
I'll download CowCaster now

*EDIT*
About CowCaster it won't install
its been like this for a long time... (Sry if it's normal but it's really long)

I don't like any of the new mechanics, particularly the new spirit system and the spellcard decks. That, and A/B specials are now B/C. Not worth my time to learn both games, I much prefer IaMP anyways.

Weather is pretty broken too, IMO. Tilts some matches retardedly:

Spring Haze
Effects: Completely disables all normal melee attacks (pushing the A button results in no action), though special moves with melee properties are not disabled. Spirit refills without any delay after firing bullets or using special moves.

Typhoon
Effects: Characters gain superarmor and will not enter hitstun, and also lose the ability to block.

Drizzle
Effects: Spellcard Damage increases.

Wtf is that?

The rest aren't as bad, but they're far too gimmicky to make matches completely consistent, I would say.

i love gabba, join the Hamachi network and sign on MSN

CowCaster is not an installer, and cannot play online without someone else.

SWR: Turn the weather off... solves one problem. Sac Mrs said to think of it as a whole new game that shouldn't be compared to IaMP. Like I played IaMP by forgetting SWR existed, maybe you can play SWR by forgetting IaMP existed, or at least not incorporating IaMP ideals.

In other news: I made my first custom palette for Remilia. Dark Lunar Remilia, yay (Lunar Legend based).

Maybe this will make the game more enjoyable?

Lol. You don't have to install CowCaster. Put it in the same folder as th075.exe and double-click it to bring that menu there up. After that use 1 to host, 2 to connect to someone hosting, and 7 to use the relay (2 players who can't host can play by using 7 and typing in mizuumi.net at the same time).

Only Touhou game Ive played was PCB...but I might try this out later

I have a Hamachi connection with vvav, but it's extremely unstable, causing SWR to lag like hell.

I ping him, and these are the delays in ms.
3000, 50, 2000, 50, 2000, 2000, 2000, 3000, 4000, etc.

What can be causing this problem?

vvav is the only person I have such a phenomenon with.

Note: vvav claims that his IP address on Hamachi is the same as his global/local IP address. Not sure which.

Another problem:
I play CowCaster with i love gabba, and I experience this problem.

The host of the relay server can choose characters and stages properly. The guest, however, witnesses this: the opponent's character keeps randomizing from Reimu to Youmu and back, never deciding. I know I'm choosing Remilia when I host, and i love gabba knows he's choosing Marisa. But when I host, i love gabba sees me rotating from Reimu to Youmu, and when he hosts, I see him rotating from Reimu to Youmu. What glitch is this?

vvav, turn on Hamachi for the sake of chatting again.

Like I said, Hamachi causes additional lag but enough to play through and my computer causes additional lag but enough to play through, but both of them at the same time, plus weather effects or spell cards = lolno. What was REALLY weird was when SWR just froze my entire system for no reason.

Midday, connect to mizuumi.net now.
I figured out the problem :]
My firewall was on... :[

Yar? I've never heard of PoFV, lol.

Read first post then. =)

You live quite close to me, so I think it may work. That's why I want you to go get Phantasmagoria of Flower View.

[ddr_f4n]

Well I got Hamachi to work on my dad's PC, so if you want to play me, it'll be around 7-11pm (since it's password protected lol)

PS: I'm Gpop in the room. Just so you guys know.

[i love gabba]

Midday, did you figured out the problem i had with IaMP today ? Or was it just a temporarily bug?
*EDIT* Could you PM or e-mail me the password again! I forgot, Thanks!

Hey do you have SWR yet? I wanna play you. If not, we'll play IaMP instead.

Password is at the front page.

Alright, first let me get IaMP to the PC and try out some things with vvav first.
