Hey, NKI, what’s up with the new avatar? Is it actually possible to use T. Hawk’s Super as a cross-up like that? O_o
as far as the software version on the grey board, i have no clue - but I would stay away from grey boards in general.
American is blue, japanese is green, random asian countries are grey if i remember right and south america is orange. I’ve never seen an orange one so i know nothing about it.
Blue/Green are compatible with one another though - so if you buy a japanese a board and want an american puzzle fighter, it will play with no problem. Grey though, will not. The pins on the grey boards are the opposite (the b board pins are male where as on the blue/geen boards they are female). If you only want it for ST and will never buy another game for the board, then i suppose thats ok - but i would hate to be limited like that.

That looks like something out of the PC version of ST. CPU T. Hawk would initiate the super anywhere on the screen and even if you were across the screen, he’d do the animation but grabbing nobody…but you’d still get damaged after he was finished.
Cheers mate,
its a grey ST with zero2. i also have the option to get a blue A board too.
so i a may just get the lot.
thx for the heads up!!
last post from me. I want to give the mods a chance to work their deletey magic on some other cats. video round-up:
a) More MOF DVD matches on madrigal’s site
http://page.freett.com/mof_movie_001/index2.htm
Did y’all watch that MSC movie that Eidrian put on combovideos.com? A lot of the same (Tokyo area?) players are featured here: Akeome(grey sagat), Koike(green blanka), ryu(grey bison), etc.
b) Grand Master Challenge

Scroll down – past Gian looking rather ill – for some movies from the recent ranbat. ShootingD(Ryu), Makki-7(Boxer), Gian(Dhalsim) and Otochun.
c) something new on

I upped a taikou exhibition (same format as that tzw taikou) between a bunch of top players that took place at x-mania a few years ago. Lots of excellent matches.
Is it just me or are DPs in ST more strict than other games? ST is the only game where I don’t get 100% accuracy DPing.
It’s not just you, I know many players that feel this way, myself included. I’m not sure is there is an issue but this personally affects me on 1P side only.
Now imagine trying to get those DPs with a DC controller… Practice makes perfect.
Yes, Hawk can do his super backwards, but it only works in a few situations. If the opponent knocks you out of the air and then walks under you for the cross up, and you do reversal super, it will be backwards, but it will still grab (unlike with Zangief, where it won’t grab, and you get the Shinkuu FAB glitch).
The easiest set-up though, and the one I used for my avatar, is simply to jump over Honda from max distance and do the super immediately after landing. It will be backwards, and it will still grab.
Please note that this is not a useful strategy at all.
I used the arcade version; I dunno if it works on the PC version or not.
But does anyone have the PC version? I’ve been looking to get my hands on a copy for a long time now, but I’ve never been able to find it anywhere…
nohoho - thanks for the links! Don’t stop posting!
I have the PC version. I belive its at my aunts though…
I have riped the first DVD of Xmania5. http://www.uberprofile.info/torrent/details.php?info_hash=162082032447e4b9de62bcfb5996acf72dac3cb3
I am seeding it from my home PC right now. The bad thing is im using a random wifi signal right now. But when I get to work in the morning ill start seeding from there as well.
Have fun.
Thank you CigarBoB, you’re the man :tup:
I will seed, even though my ISP called me and told me not too lol
I burned all the files to CD-r and some of them wont transfer off the CDr. I will be heading home soon to copy off the files and bring them to work. I am seeding what files I do have right now. It should be up at 100% with in a few hours.
dialupsucky do you have the patch that came with the pc version also? there was more than one patch for the game iirc.
cigarbob: lol lol seems like that random wifi signal youre jacking died, no seeders on the torrent atm hahaha
Yeah, I figured as such…
Still amusing to see all of the bizarre stuff that’s possible due to the nuances of the engine, even if it has no use in a real match.
Ooh, thanks for the torrent, CigarBoB. I’ll have to get that later.
patch? hrm ah… dun think so… Honestly I didnt bother with the game very much… I got it not much after it came out, thinking I could play the game on keyboard… Didnt turn out to well… So never really played the game again shrug.
Seed is back up. Enjoy.
Also there will be a new torrent with some casual matches from ST with Me and Joe Zazza from England. I will have more tomorrow.
The second Xmania V DVD will be up wednesday/Thursday. I want to give enough time for ppl to get the first DVD Set.
The patch for the PC version of SSF2T is a must have. Without it, you can’t block an attack on wakeup.
