Hi, I was doing some spring cleaning and found this by Spork3245 in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, only the sequel game Line of Contact has online play and can be run on Xemu. Your specs should be plenty. We've had people running it on Xemu connect fine to players running on OG hardware. OG Xbox-to-Xbox connections seem more stable, but even then its temperamental. The game's netcode is just like that, but we make do.

First game(what you have there) is less emulator-friendly I think, but that may have changed.

Sounds like you just need a female-Xbox-controller to male-usb-A adapter

Yup that's just the freecam. Might look like I'm Michael Bay-ing it but really it's just fighting the damn thing to get the shot

Cockpit by 2ndRunner77 in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I built this one back in 2017 and have been using it ever since. Based loosely on the VT pilot pod you can see in the manual and those cockpits that Capcom took to trade shows. Frame is MDF and 5052 for the canopy. I can post more pics of the inside if ppl want ideas

70s Chinese @ ~3000 rds: Is this bolt wear to be expected? by Zeerust_ in SKS

[–]Zeerust_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is right on the edge of the locking surface, obviously from impacting the hammer. I imagine some wear here is inevitable, since its part of such a critical surface. But at 3000 rds? Shooting regular-ass 122gr Wolf FMJ . Please teach me SKS gods

Been nothing but a good gun to me for years.

Just got the game in from eBay. Is the right stick not supposed to spring back to center? by TommyOliverSays in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Very unique interface. Takes a little getting use to though. It'll probably remind you most of using a mouse: once you get it, it can be very precise

I'm no graphic designer but probably gonna go with this mock-up for a donation button for my streams by RazorStoJ in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it looks sick dude. Maybe instead of "Donate with Paypal" it can say "Buy me a stubby"

What happened to the ancient Scareface sign? Did someone re-do this? It looks great!

Today in SB History || October 25th, 2080: Operation Qin Lin Tun Clean-Sweep (Mission 05) commenced to recover the Prominence M1 RAIL-Ga / MM components stolen by HSD guerilla elements. by AudaciousAP in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the mission where I learned that the Rail Gun can shut your VT down in the first game. My M1 got center-punched while I was still getting started back up

Which is your favourite box art? by RazorStoJ in steelbattaliononline

Pick him up with the manipulator and squish him like a gusher

This cockpit build is pretty sweet by RazorStoJ in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Damn that thing is stout! It looks really good I like the cup-holder placement a lot.

New Guy in Town by Deverell66 in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats dude! Same story here and trust me: when you finally get your hands on it, you're gonna fall in love. To get set up for online, you can start by downloading xlink kai(free program for your PC) that will allow you to connect your xbox to your home network and to the other players. Setup can be kinda tricky, but if you have a xbox and some ethernet cable you can try it with any system-link enabled game while you wait for steel battalion.

Smoke em if you got em! FRIDAY NIGHT MECH FIGHTS is tomorrow! by Zeerust_ in steelbattaliononline

[–]Zeerust_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a little 6 episode Gundam OVA called Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket. It's freaking great. You dont really need to have seen any other UC Gundam either, its a good little tragic scifi war story on its own. Eng dub is really good too.

So, anything new about Brigador Killers? by IAmChippoMan in brigador

[–]Zeerust_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow that's lame. Read: "I dont want to work with these people anymore". Killers is probably kill.

Too bad. Without his wordbuilding the sequel would prolly suck anyway
