Few things here. Firstly, Kai 7 will be the public release - and should be essentially final. Just about everything which people have been asking for has now been implemented - and I'm getting set up for a solid period of testing - especially with the voice stuff - especially across platforms (win32 <--> xbox) etc.
Now, heres another thing. Sony have dropped the iLink port from the new PSX, and future PS2 hardware builds. "GUH?" you say?. Thats gonna prevent it from playing syslink games - right? Well, not quite. A couple of games (timesplitters 2 and midnight club 2) - already support syslink without iLink - by using the network adapter :D ..
Hmmm.... flat235 smells Ethernet :D ... let's go ;)
Thats right folks - Kai 7 will support the Playstation 2.. initial investigation indicates that the PS2 tunnels well - as the netcode is just copied from the online modules of the respective games.
We added the (stolen?? :P) GCN code to Kai in a matter of days, and that was a more difficult task than this. We can also recycle the built-in-mini-DHCP server which we use on the GCN's to assign the PS2' LAN addresses - so it should all be good..
Shortly, I will be posting instruction for joining a planned PS2 beta crew - it will be a tight unit of users from both PAL and NTSC areas, who will need *good* knowledge of stuff like ethereal.. more soon on that.
As concerns the client itself, I've completed the SpeeX (www.speex.org) integration at my end using a narrowband, VAD setup - and im gonna hook it up with TJ's ava client very soon.. Then theres not a lot left to do, apart from trialing the new orbital software, and, of course, giving dfunked the time he needs to complete the new website layouts.
Thanks to everyone who has supported XLink for, what will be, on the 13th march, 1 year exactly since the first xbox data was tunnelled over the xlink network. We have built, in my opinion, one of the most diverse and interesting gaming communities around - and the credit for that must go to you guys, the users. As we begin to open up Kai fully to users of the GCN and PS2, I hope and expect that the things which have made the XLink community so strong in the past will continue through this transitional period.
Again, thanks for your continued support..
TD & The XLink Kai Crew

No Bo-XLink support. Remote control of XLink RC3 via Xbox is being integrated into Avalaunch dashboard though and is supposed to be better than Bo-XLink. <

| will it work with bo-xlink? bo-xlink is byfar the best alternative to xbox live. it stops the need to run back and forth between computer and xbox. please add support for it and if not, create a new app for the xbox so that we dont have to run between computer and xbox. (the goal is to make gaming online easier and more accessable and not harder and more complicated!!!!!!!!!!!!) |
I get a little touchy when I read things like that. This whole thing is FREE. Every homebrew application you download, is FREE.
People have LIVES. That means, wife, kids, job etc. They don't spend 24 / 7 coding new things for everyone to play with. Bo-XLink, it takes time, and effort, and skill, and the brains to do it.
TD decided this time around to stop focusing on Bo-XLink, as XBox homebrew development isn't his forte (but still, damn good effort on Bo-XLink RC2). The most frequently updated software on the XBox scene is the dashboard. It's also the most widely used. I don't know of many people who mod their XBox and just leave it with the current MS dashboard, running emulators and games from DVDs etc.
So that's why the decision was made to see who'd be interested in taking over hte production of a "Bo-XLink" clone. Naturally, the good guys at Team Avalaunch put their hands up, and they will most likely be the first to release the in-built support for XLink Kai in their dashboard (don't ask me when!). It's almost there, and I would highly encourage people to try it out when it's released, and help them weed out the bugs.
But that's not all. I'm not so sure I'm allowed to say this, but we've now gotten XBMC, UnleashX and MediaXMenu all beginning to build Kai functionality into their dashboards. As for Evox, well, they seem to have disappeared from the face of the planet (all respect to them for revolutionizing the XBox though).
You may or may not see a standalone Bo-XLink clone made by one of these teams, or maybe by some other experienced coder who we respect and know, but not by TD or Team XLink.
So please, realise that the world doesn't revolve around yourself and that there are constraints. If you do use Evox, well you can still install these dashes and use Kai from there, but I think after a while you'll get sick of that and make a switch over to an alternative... <

for xbox users NOT in the same room as a pc, its better if you have a wireless pc headset or use the xbox live headset for games that support it.
the big change that this will mean, is that people can talk in rooms before beginning play, so they wont need to type.
users that have a pc in same room as xbox will be able to chat in all games (including halo) since there isnt any xbox interaction, its all on teh pc.

Also, yes. Halo will lag on ANY connection. It lags on LAN in you have enough players (when the corpses start to build up) but on a 10MB host (I assume you mean 10MB upload?) the lag will be minimal and pretty much as close to LAN as you'll get online. In fact, you might not notice much difference. Best thing is to play the game and find out for yourself

The reason......because I just read an article in the Avalaunch forum where the Joker (ava lead developer) says the new Avalaunch will not be released until Kai 7 is finished.
I know alot of people have waiting longer than they had expected for the new kai.
But....
Atleast when it is released there will actually be features that we can use. Unlike the new Xbox Live Tsunami.

I know for XBMC but what i don't like is to start PC side of KAI, why ? Because if you have Full KAI directly from Xbox without KAI on PC, then anybody with a computer (PC, MAC etc.,.) with an internet connection will be able to play.

Post by: billy_dimashq on May 07, 2004, 07:42:00 AM
OK my question is this - XBConnect and X-Link claim to work with any System Link software, but whenever I run them, I'm always confronted with a drop-down list of games to choose from. I read somewhere (maybe here on xbox-scene) that they needed drivers or special code specific to each game, sort of like Mame and other emulators do.
Will it be possible to play ANY system-link software on Kai? I'm specifically talking about XBox here, not PS2 or GC (i dont have lan adapters for them...yet).
Most of my emulators have system link support and I was wondering if it would be possible to play these over Kai, similar to how Kaillera works...seeing as the emu authors have already included system link ability with their emu's, is it possible to just take, say, Final Burn or FCEUltra and play against someone with the same emu/Kai version?
Think of it in terms of Mame vs NeoRageX - Mame needs drivers for each game or else it won't load them, whereas NeoRageX was developed to theoretically work with any neogeo game that came out (probably why it hasn't been updated in a while)
This is an open question btw - any advice is greatly appreciated
Looking forward to this either way. Good luck with the release!

| A good question, Yes, evo7 will support any sort of syslink game. This is a pretty unique feature of Kai: > WarpPipe requires driver-type plugins for each game > XBConnect does not support homebrew games (ie does not support std. IP addressing on the xbox) - so your emus wouldnt work. It's been a pain in the ass to tunnel homebrew on xbox before, mainly through the need to get everyone on a different IP, but on the same subnet. Thankfully, Kai destroys this barrier by implementing a DHCP server internally, which supplies your xbox with a globally unique config, which is perfect for playing online homebrew. No need to play with settngs - just put ure xbox in DHCP (auto-config IP) mode, start Kai on PC, reboot box, play homebrew Im thinking that this advancement in Kai will fuel some pretty enjoyable homebrew play - as all the current emus/etc with syslink will "just work" with evo7. TD |
Sublime. Absolutely sublime.
As for Warppipe needing drivers for each game, I doubt that'll be an issue any time soon (only 3 games use lan, or something).
Now for the peeps:
I think all this talk about Kai squashing 'super tunnel software X' is a bit elitist isnt it? its not even out yet, and already ppl are sounding like ninty fans bigging up ninty's next console "it's gonna X, Y and Z, man!"
While I'm laying in wait for what is obviously going to be the best tunneling software around, lets not forget that XBConnect was the first on the scene, and it's what most tunneling people will have started out with.
Kudos to you guys developing it, and I feel for you when people say "put this in and put that in or else you won't be fulfilling my wants" - I've just started programming in C++ (wish me luck!) so that I can try XBox programming and it's true - we (meaning you guys) DO have lives!

I really need my PC to be connected Wireless and my XBOX to be connected to my router with a wire. Don't ask why, I can't change that setup. That's the only way I can connect all my stuff given the "geography" of my appartment.
I would like to be able to use Kai and I'm sure I'm not the only one here.

I agree, people should respect the host.
If the host is unhappy with the way people are playing in there game they will have an option to boot them.
Whenever i join a game and the players already in it dont understand, or dont want to talk English, while im in there game i keep quiet, and play the game.
what isent nice is for 2 players who want to chat that hijack someone elses game to have an indepth conversation. (whatever there language.)

lol. Well the PS2Reality divx player had a countdown too. I remember logging on to the site during the last few seconds of the countdown (pure coincidence i swear) and it got to zero, then started going into the minus numbers...
carried on like that for the day. next day the site was down and i managed to get it from one of the mirrors.
moral of the story? a countodown will start going into minus numbers if it isn't managed properly. not that i care - i'll be
when it's released so i'll know what happened on sunday morning!good luck with the preparations and break a pad (leg) - better make it a rubbish 3rd party pad, or else it could put the release date back

Man if you want me to sit there and hit the switch for yaw, I will do it. Nothing would break me from fulfilling my job. Not the wife, girlfriend, kids, dog, cats, fish, snake, and so on. It would be better service than then the US Postal Service, I would do you proud...

I thank God it's everyday - at my age you have to
Really looking forward to this app - it'll be interesting to see how many games I can get my butt kicked on
