XBSlink - Working with PS3

[The Central Scrutinizer]

XBSLink is client/server to enable local network multiplayer games over internet just like Xlink Kai, only difference is that its P2P connection!

How is XBSlink different to Xlink Kai/xbconnect?

In difference to other Systemlink proxies, XBSlink is purely P2P with no server infrastructure. No server connection or specialized game browser service is necessary. You are not dependent on any other factors. All packets in and out are 100% between the client nodes itself. The program was developed to get the last bit of speed/ping time thats possible. And to know, that no other data than the game packets itself is send to the internet.

From developer I asked if this could work with PS3 and he said, YES.

With "enable special MAC list" -feature.

Ok, I tested this with my friend with Blur and it works.

What you need to do is here:

For host & remote do:

1) Add your PS3 MAC into special MAC list (picture 1)
2) Start Engine (picture 1)
3) Start game and host local network multiplayer game (only if you are host)

For remote do:

1) After steps above add remote host ip or host (picture 2)
2) Push announce to Remote Host (picture 2)
3) Start game and connect local network multiplayer game (only if you are remote)

After these steps host and remote is connected and you can have a chat while you play game

This was after all alot easier and quicker that xlink kai.

And I didnt have to make any account to connect etc..

Neat, but this still only works with LAN games like Red Dead Redemption right?

[chesh]

Correct.

nice, this is a good step in the right direction

So how well does this work with wifi? Will I be able to use this without a LAN cable?


anywho, think I've setted it up correctly...
So, will I be able to join in on random games that are up and running? Or will I need to know the name of host, or what ever that option is??

Wait so since its P2P, it will only work with you and one other person?
Also this is a bit off topic but with COD, team deathmatch/any other modes won't work with this or xlink kai right?

Anyone have a list of LAN games? Other than Blur and Red Dead Redemption?

Just as test purpose I tried this also with mobile network connection and it was ok. Ping was pretty low

Didnt try wifi connection. As long MAC is found in network it should work tought.
