I see no problem with an EFZ one. EFZ's 4.02 update came at the end of 2005 (november). That was after IaMP's last (1.11) update.

Looks like shit. What happened with Meltan? Why haven't I seen Meltan threads in months?

It was a fairly fun game but the netcode is terrible.
You're lucky to get a playable connection to someone 300 miles from you.
I've only ever played it with friends I have in state. Even moving to a neighboring state was enough to render it a desynchronized input dropping mess.

The megaupload link is the most recent version, so I can't see why there would be a problem.

>>5040194
There were some, you just weren't on /jp/ at the time.

>>5040194
It's better than Hisoutensoku (which is not saying much, but it's true).

Hey OP, if you want to host, I'll try playing. Can't guarantee anything about the connection, though.

I always wanted to play this online, but the caster is a piece of shit.

If we're going old school doujin fighters then let's break out the Maribato Plus.
Elegant souer battling is preferred here.

Yeah this was such a fun game.
Why don't we play Nitro Royale while we're at it.

>>5040325

>>5040343
What's wrong you don't want to get tenderly piledrivered between the thighs of Saengief?

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9559572
Maribato combos so silly. Too bad none of these work because you can tag and bail yourself out.

No but, I played Tomoyo Fighter.

>>5040343
Is it any good?

So no one going to try hosting a game?

>>5040443
Wow and I thought this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJd7RAh09SM was the worst thing I'd ever seen in a fighting game.

Sheet, OP. This is almost old enough to nostalgia over.

It's been years upon years since I played this; long before there even was a netplay patch.
Redownloading now, maybe I'll scrub the ground with my wonderful friends at /jp/ in a little while.

>>5040443
Why would anyone play this game after watching this?

>>5040675
I don't think anyone plays it anymore.
Except maybe mugen people, but they don't count.

>>5040533
Still around, friend?
I never stuck around to see how shitty the netplay was, so I'd love to experience it. Can host if you still want; er, at least I'm pretty sure I can. Not sure how trustworthy the stuff on the wiki is, especially considering not only its age but how well Bellreisa normally keeps track of things. But I suppose it's worth a try, right?

>>5040720
Yeah, still here. Host whenever.
I'll assume port 88.

>>5040733
88 UDP forwarded; good ol' tasofro.
Enjoy your scrub-beating.

>>5040749
8 FPS YEAAAAH. GG.
What did you set the delay on? If it was the max (4), then probably no use trying any more.

>>5040798
OH MAN, I thought playing soku with a bunch of torrents running against someone from Australia was bad.
That sure was monstrous, guess I'm not gonna underestimate things that make Mizuumi whine more than usual anymore.

Anyway GG bro, but I actually set it at 0 -- not sure what the fuck made me think that was a good idea, maybe I'd just been pampered on playing so many fightans that don't use casters that I forgot about it.
Also, where's the option to do playernames? I couldn't find it anywhere on mine or in the guide, but it's not a big deal since most of /jp/ wouldn't be too thrilled to see that they're playing against Giant Tree.

Anyway, uh, we could totally try that again with delay set right in a minute.

H +T p : / / à + .k Í m m 0 Á . $ e /

>>5040816
Edit lang_0.txt with your info if you want, and tell when when you're hosting so we can try it on 4 delay. We might be able to get 30 fps this time.

>>5040822
Derp, I just caught it after posting, my bad.

But yeah okay, it's up.

>>5040222
But /jp/ did not even exist by the time!

>>5040824
GGs. A lot better than 8 fps, though I still wish there was a better caster.

Tasofro should update this game instead of wasting their resources on Touhou.

>>5041204
Welp, GGs bro. To think that wasn't only 30 fps, but a whole thirty-FIVE! Glorious.
I dunno, it doesn't seem all that unplayable to me -- I almost wish /jp/ had a frequent netplay scene for this, even one almost as big as VagPov's three players.

Sorry for being a colossal scrub either way; I tried to go entirely from memory and there was really only one character I could remember anything about (care to take a guess who that was?). Maybe if there actually are players around I might start relearning it, sure is hella more fun than SWR/soku and IaMP.
At least, it'd be something to do until PC BlazBlue comes out in a few years from now.

>>5041218
There might be the one or two EFZ players here that were around about a year ago, the last time an EFZ thread actually got anywhere. Maybe if we keep these threads up people will join.

>>5041256
Well one thing's for sure that I'd forgotten about so many years ago; this game is actually fun.
I'd be willing to relearn it even if it meant I'd leave my caster open for days on end until someone showed up.

I mean, it's not like I'd never done it before.

EFZ is good and fun if you're not playing with people that have learned how to do the advanced million-fucking-hit combos that destroy your entire life bar in one fell swoop.

Or in other words, it's a good game if you're a scrub.

>>5041806
Well, people are still playing SFIV/SSFIV, so...

>EFZ
Let's do this
24.200.69.244 on port 7500

>>5041844
Get out of here sage

What caster are you people using to play?

Could you provide a link?

>>5041849
There are two of them, apparently:

>>5041844

I wonder if you will be able to play today...

>>5041892
Doesn't look like it so far, but it can't hurt to leave the client open just in case.

how can i play on windows 7 64x?

>>5042097
I don't know if you can... XP user here.

>>5040660

Ikumi is top tier.

>>5041905
It seems he wasn't.

Shiori/Akane main here.

Game fails at running on Vista though, which accounts for my lack of recent playing. Then again, lolVista.

>>5042820
This game gave me such a misleading image of Ikumi. Thought she be some sort of dominatrix, DARKNESS bitch or something. Instead, got generic bi-sexual slut.

Why does /jp/ have the worst taste in fighting games?

>>5044014
What goes wrong with it?

>>5045749
>>DARKNESS bitch or something

How dark is DARKNESS level? I thought Ikumi was pretty screwed up.

>>5041844
REHOSTING

Is it really that hard to DL GGPO + some Neo Geo games and Street Fighter 2 & 3?

>>5045883
Yes; if we did that it'd be taking up space that could otherwise be used for good games.
Also we're /jp/, we like to take it easy when we play things. If we did that we'd just be the same as all the other elitist tourneyfags; why do that when we can have our own flavors?

>>5045862
Done hosting already?

>>5046057
I am maximum hosting like, right now.

It desynched I think? Are you up for more?

>>5045883
>good games
>Eternal Fighter Zero

>>5045833
Yeah, but instead of making her deranged, it just made her sluttier.

>>5046454
Yeah, it crashed, sorry about that. GG up until then either way; had some fun games of Melty Blood. Gotta apologize for marching in and being a gigantic scrub though, I'm still trying to relearn everything. And even back in my day when I did play it there was no netplay so I didn't get far considering there was, you know, nobody to play against.

But if I'm not boring you by still experimenting with characters I'm totally still up if you're willing to rehost, or I can because I have 7500 forwarded anyway.

>>5046473
I'll rehost, then. It's not like I really play outside of training mode, so any experience is welcome.

>>5040112

>Darkstalker's freeze sprite.
>KoF style KOs

Heh.

Well, I'm done. GGs.

>>5046491
You're finished? Alright then, gee gees bro.
As I'm sure you can tell, there's only one thing that I could really remember well, and that was CATCH 2A ALL THE TIME. Shamefully you figured out my "mash 214 instead of block on wakeup" secret fairly quick, but I'll be honest that catching a 2A with it made me scream really loudly; there was a huge YEAAAAAAH that one time I barely managed to make a comeback by countering one of those. Made me feel great for a second, then I realized it was a fluke and I'm still a scrub.

Either way I had a lot of fun, /jp/ needs to get together and play old games like this every once in a while. Especially considering how much better it is than most of the trash that's coming out these days.
Well, if anyone who still plays to this is ever up again maybe we can do this more often -- I'd be happy to scrub the ground some more.

Anyway, thanks for the games friend, have a wonderful day.

>>5046879
I SWEAR IF I SEE THAT COUNTER ONE MORE TIME I WILL BLOW A JOINT so I just switched to Nayuki and went crazy with the crossups to fuck up your inputs, heh. How does magicgirl's charge moves work? I swear I lost rounds to it because I could never figure out what to do against it.

>>5046890
When I say magicgirl, I mean the one with the magical girl stick, not... the one that uses magic.

>>5046890
You mean Kano's?
She can only use specials when the magic gauge is full, and if you try to input one when it's not full she'll automatically charge it up which most of the time means misinputs are almost always going to completely fuck you.
When there's one stock of the RF gauge though you can 236S to insta-charge it which is also sort of a burst; I tried to use it to get out of pressure and more often than not it just plain didn't work.

But then again,
>I swear I lost rounds to it
makes me think you're talking about the OTHER magicgirl, and the only real "charge" move she has is probably that command grab where she dashes and slams you against the wall. The right way to use that is with fancy wallslam bnbs that involve using it before the opponent can airtech, which I hadn't quite got the timing down on.

Either way both your mains are total pro to me, maybe I'll dick around in practice and figure out how to actually use Mayu beyond playing her exactly like Kaede, or even figure out how to actually do Mio's spacing. Or, you know, learn a good character. ;_;

>>5046896
Woop, F5'd too late. Tell you what, I'll just let you read it all anyway.

>>5046922
If you're going to use Kano, learn to magic cancel, i.e. 5D after any normal and immediately 5D again to stop charging. Pretty much anything you do is safe now, congrats.

>>5046939
I'll keep that in mind, thanks.
That is, if a scene for this ever gets back up.

>>5046922
Forgot to mention but that command grab is blockable so just, uh, block it. I'm too smalltime to time wallbounce combos at this point so unless you play a tourneyfag all you need to remember is to just keep blocking that thing when it's random.
Unless you meant something else by "charge move," I guess.

>>5046922
Yeah, at some point I figured that you were supposed to combo from it (well at least the EX version), but I was always trying to jump out instead of just blocking it, and I just learned that I'm supposed to RG it if I want to do something about it. You know, as far as I know most of the cast is considered equal (exceptions being violinchick and theaterchick (and Kanna but she doesn't count)) so don't sweat the whole good/bad character deal.

Do you use MSN/AIM/IRC/Steam or anything like that? More often than not I'd be up for some EFZ or pretty much any non-SNK fighter, so I'd be pretty convenient. /jp/ only covers a few games, and it could get annoying to have to wait for or make a thread every time, especially when people barely play.

>>5046969
IRC to some degree, only my recent experiences with it have been with #hisouten idiots and I'd rather not be around that degree of trash any more than I have to.
I actually have a channel on Rizon too but I haven't even sent my bot in there or anything in weeks.
If you have a channel somewhere then yeah, I'd totally be willing to idle for hours on end until a chance to play this comes up. If it's anything on Mizuumi that might not go too well though, bellreisa isn't my biggest fan for reasons I'd rather not go into. Cough cough.

By the way, Misaki's super where she launches that wind blast downward, is that unblockable? I swear it is, I got hit by that so many times when I didn't think I would. Or maybe it's just my inexperience.

>>5047005
I spend all of my waking hours on #meltanjp on rizon (Though we stopped being an MB channel for months now), so just drop by whenever you feel like it. We're like 3 who play EFZ on it, though no often.

As for the super, it's blockable, it was probably just crossing you up. At the very least, it's what I was trying to do.

Colors all messed up on Windows 7.

>>5047029
Right-click, properties, and check boxes. I don't remember what to check exactly, but it should work at some point.

>>5047018
Alright, I may drop by sometime later, thanks. Actually, I haven't played Meltan in years either, almost thought about picking it back up sometime. No surprise that you used to play it I suppose, your name alone was what gave me the idea to capture 2A instead of anything else, and I'm goddamn glad I did.

And crossup, hurr. I knew you tried to do it constantly and I always got caught in it even when I knew what was happening. Shame on me.

>>5047029
But does it actually run?

>>5047045
yes

>>5047029
You can get around this by killing explorer before launching EFZ/netplayclient.

http://raven831.hoops.ne.jp/EFZ64.zip
Or you could use this batch file to do it for you.

>>5047055
Then there you go.

>>5047045
Look at the bright side, if you had started blocking crossups, I'd have started mixing up my corner oki game and it'd only get more confusing from there.

And since when did Nagamori play the cello?

>>5047120
What do you think her club activity was?

>>5047182
I dunno, knitting

PLAY KANNA
WIN EVERY GAME

>>5040120
i think the thread ended here

The netplay works just as fine as any decent netplay pre-rollcaster. No reason to complain about it, and input delay alone won't save you in any game when you try to play someone you ping >140ms to.

Just make sure that ALL the radio buttons (sans difficulty) in the config match up to your opponent's settings if you don't want to desync.

There's a windower application that lets you painlessly play the game on vista/win7. You can probably find it by asking around in #efz on efnet.

>>5047284
Still better than Hisoutensoku

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE

Why are you guys still dragging this on? This is a terrible fighter game, and strictly worse than VanPri which didn't last long here anyway.

Age just for you.

>>5048490
What's your experience with fighting games?

>>5048490
>VanPri

If this didn't happen I would've made a thread on that soon anyway.
Besides, these are fun, casual games that are much more enjoyable - in the sense of picking up and playing - than modern tourneyfag trash that gets cranked out these days. Such things have always been the favorite of /jp/.
Go back to your SSFIV, we don't want you here.

EFZ always gives me hope that fans will put together voice patches for the Touhou fighters.
Most of the EFZ voice work was fan made as far as I know.
Though fans did try to make some during IaMP but it fell through. Suika's voice is awesome too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JpPSAF0wGw

>>5048502

It's not my fault you're terrible at these games. And I found out about SSFIV only earlier today, so you're horribly off on what you assume.
