Hey NGU,
I get a lot of questions how i get host all the time when going online in a party.
So let talk about the two methods that you can use.
- forcehost in a eboot : good for lazy guys who play online alone.
Problem with this method is if you go online in a party it's just not stabel.
1) ps3 freeze
2) or you will lose host
3) usually the first game works but second game gives you problem 1 or 2
4) sometimes when somebody uses godmode class you freeze or lose host.
Best way to go online in a party and get host do is the following method:
- debug eboot with out forcehost combined with a rtm tool that allows you to run forcehost manually.
If your favorite tool doesn't have the force host option just use a second program. I recommend Bass_haxors forcehost.
If you use this method there's a protocol to follow:
- connect/attach
- start a party. Set min player to 1 and Max players what ever you like.
- turn on forcehost
- invite friends / i prefer max of 5 friends (don't get invited and join a party and then get host. You proberly lose host)
- start a game (if you use prestige disco or other loops, you will proberly lose host).
- when you start a game and don't like the map and you backout, just turn off forcehost and set it again. And start a new game.
1) problem when you join someone elses private party and you don't turn it off you will freeze.
2) when somebody uses a godmode class you can lose host.
Have fun!!
But i think the udp unicorn method is better for us "lazy guys" lol
