should i install it? i thought it was only for older operating systems(winsock that is) i did install the new version tho. i figure xp already has all that crap. yeah everything is pointing to the right place
Sabre,
Just download it anyway. What about when you click “start,” what happens? Just curious, what DSL do you have? SBC?
nah i have cable. cox… ill try installing it anyway. but like i said, the problem im having is exactly the same as in the old version. it does absolutely nothing when i click on start game. its as if i never hit the button at all. so it has to be a software issue IMO… but who knows
EDIT: just tried to install it(winsock), XP doesnt allow me to
So…you mean that the ZSNES window doesn’t even open up when you click “start?”
nothing happens at all. i reinstalled everything. made sure i got the right version of zsnes(1.36). pointed everything zbattle needs to the right directory. even followed the rules on the first page of this thread and nothing…
Can you even play roms offline through Zsnes?
i am a dumbass right now. i admit, i missed one part. didnt know it had to be installed in the same directory as znes. damn zbattle is misleading. dunno why it needs to be installed in same directory yet still ask where the executable is at. makes no sense hehe. oh well. it finally works. works great too. too bad i got a shitty sidewinder pro that doesnt like special moves to come out. oh wells. get a new pad i guess
thanx for anyones help
Hey wes, sorry for leaving so abruptly. My connection just died out for now damn reason. Great matches. Your Rog is one solid brawler.
Alright Boys & Girls…
Sabre is officially on. Everything is fully functional (finally!) on his end. I’m sure many of you are wondering, “Well…how did you guys make it happen, given all his prior tribulations with the damn program?” The answer is a lot funnier than you think. Apparently Mr. Sabre (only I can call him that) forgot to put his Zbattle within the same directory as his ZSNES. Now, before you go flamin’ him w/pm’s, I just want to let you all know that “it” even happens to the best of them. Apparently, Sabre was just too busy watching prior KI vids between him & Mr. Wizard from the good ol’ Xband days of '96 to notice that portion of my bro’s (Vintage) first post on this thread 
The moral of the story kids…even nostalgia often gets the better of us 
rofl!!! hahahahaatleast i solved it myself tho hehehe. so atleast i still got that!
jsj: sorry dude, didnt see ya there on zbattle. i just finished playing gaiden and forgot to shut it down. we can get some games in, hopefully il lget a decent pad tomorrow, so hopefully then…
time for bed.
peace
Gaiden will initiate u well…kinda like hazing a freshman into highschool 
Yeah, we should fight sometime.
Thanks, and all this time I thought it was me. Wish I could give you a better fight, I can’t play Ken (or any character with fb motions). For some reason my stick works like shit whn I try and do fb/dp motions but works for everything else, I don’t get it. GG’s we’ll play again sometime, hopefully I’ll put up a better fight.

hmmmm i wonder if this happened to anyone. I created a game and someone came in and downloaded the game from me. Before the transfer could finish the person left. I then tried to select the same rom but for some reason IT’S GONE! Poof, vanished…am I going crazy?
-wes =p
Yes this happened to me too! Weird! :eek:
:mad: damn it…hmm if anyone that has and is playing zbattle online with DSL/SBC yahoo …please reply cause i need to know whats up with this supposedly firewall that it has thats TURTLING my shit…
Cez TS
Cesar, you have to disable the firewall in your connection settings.
Go to Start, Control Panel, Internet and Network Connections, then go to the Properties of the connection, go to Advanced, and disable it there by unchecking the firewall option.
Hey all, I’m FunkDOC on there. Dark Gaiden, you’re the Gaiden on there who pwned me, right?
Well, anyway, I just got my new computer and there are a few problems with zbattle:
-
I can’t create games. The window never appears.
-
I can’t chat. I type and hit the Send button, but nothing gets sent.
-
I can join other games but not actually get to play. The ZSNES window never even pops up when the other person tries to start.
So I’m just wondering what the heck is up. My old computer ran on Win98 (zbattle ran fine there, aside from being laggy due to comp’s general shittiness), and this one uses XP (Professional edition, in case that means anything).
Also, I have one more question…
Are there any good PS2 to USB/whatever convertors? The only one I’ve known of connects to a printer (yes, weird I know), something which I don’t have right now. Reason for this question is that I have a Hori Soul Calibur 2 stick which I would just love to use.
Thanks in advance, and looking forward to playing you SERIOUS old schoolers,
Josh
P.S. Anyone here interested in non-fighters? I’m a fan of Contra 3 and Smash TV myself, as well as the Magical Drop series.
I still can’t get this to work. Before i had the wrong rom now i have the right one. Everytime i connect it show the connected screen only. I dont have a firewall software and i dont have a check when i go to network connections its all unchecked. I fixed the router issue or atleast i think i did. In zbattle opition menu my rom path is correct.
I had some of the same problem as Josh-TheFunkDOC has. Well sometimes i do when i chat i see me chatting but later on the words are not showing unless i disconnect and reconnect again.
make sure you didnt do what i did lol. make sure the zbattle directory IS placed IN the zsnes directory. that is a must… try that if it isnt like that
i got a question for anyone that knows how the zsnes latency issue works. i hate my pad. i use the shitty sidewinder pro usb(grey with a 6 button face, d-pad is analog) im kinda used to this pad sort of. i can do all the moves pretty consistently. but when i play online. while its not laggy at all, my controls arent precise at all. it can be a bitch to do charge moves and dp’s.
anyway, my question is. is putting the latency to 1 decrease the lag present while lowering input refresh rates? like what if i set it to 2, would lag be a little more noticeable but, at the same time, my refresh rate on my input commands raise higher for more accurate controls?
i know its like this on kaillera when you pick connection type. most people use the good option. selecting good doesnt take a lot of bandwidth from the server you are connecting to, but you only get ao control refresh rate of 20fps. so basically, your controls dont register for 40 frames in a second. but if you jack the connection level to excellent, you take a little more bandwidth but your input refresh goes up to 30 fps which changes a lot. personally, i think most people dont know this that play kaillera cuz everyone plays on good setting and its total ass. especially when using mame cuz games go in slow motion.
so im just wondering if the latency # settings on znes serve the same function. just wondering if anyone has stats on the numbers.
lftrpllr: good games too. you owned me. just wait til i get a decent pad, or better yet, a stick, lol! your rog is too mean. i hate him more in ssf2 than in st cuz of his mid hitting rush punch. argh… hehe
I finally got all my connection issues worked out heh. I’m playing as “CoB” now.
