This actually sounds really interesting. I'd be curious to try this out and see how some of the more elaborate motions feel on it, like instant airdashes, tiger-knee Axl Bombers and dash-momentum Beak Drivers/Tandem Tops.

Poll from ASW's Shini about default keyboard controls:

Oh, and a fix for some keys being unmappable should be coming 'pretty soon'.

I am actually surprised a developer has patch notes posted on steam. The big AAA devs just throw shit out there without saying anything.

Asking for a friend of mine, is the lobbies still active?
Ooh, nice. Now I can play with pad on WINE without halving the frame rate.

I'd kinda like to see fighting games provide incentives for public player matches as a way to encourage casual lobby play. Right now fighting games just sort of let people do whatever they want completely and it results in weird player habits that can hurt the longevity of an online scene. Some fighters are mostly populated by private parties, others are mostly ranked game centric and others might only focus on regular player matches to the detriment of everything else. An effort to encourage public lobby play alongside ranked play (which already uses leaderboards as an incentive) would really help.
I wouldn't be surprised if it is the fastest selling ASW title on Steam. It would probably be close to 100k by now had they brought back the launch discount for the winter sale.

Fighting games, of any type are just not popular enough to encourage a healthy online population. This is of course exacerbated by how much of an impact latency has on the experience it self.
Even with large player pools like say CoD, you see 90% of the population drift to one or two specific game types. Your best bet is to have such a massive player pool that the remaining few players that are scattered across various game modes are still sizable enough in number to sustain them.

Literally every time I've played I've seen a bunch of half full lobbies. People still play ranked as well but the problem with ranked is you can't really know what you're getting connection-wise, since the connection indicator fluctuates for too long.
SF4 has been super healthy online for years and years now all the way up to SFV.
Disagree. Fighting games are 1v1 and a lot of good players can play multiple characters.
Even something as small as an 100 player dedicated base could be seen as healthy imo.

I don't care about the solutions that can only be implemented by AAA fighting game devs. Smaller, cheaper innovations for niche titles are far more interesting to me. Improvements like multi-fight lobbies, GGPO netcode, custom delay settings pre-match and such are cool because they can be implemented from the bottom up. Skullgirls, BlazBlue and Guilty Gear are never going to sell SF or MK numbers, so providing incentives to encourage a healthy spread of players throughout the different fighting modes is worth trying. I wish cross-play could fit somewhere in there, but I fear that is an innovation that would cost a pretty penny for any company smaller than ASW.
That is too low for an online population. SG is pretty much the floor for a healthy online fighting scene and it averages around 300 players a day. MK and SF are healthier with an average of 1500 iirc.

Who else is waiting for revelator or subsequent sequels?
Nobody who wants to actually be good.
I did the whole waiting thing with BlazBlue
Only ever ended up playing Calamity Trigger
Won't be making that mistake again

So this has already made the rounds in a few places, but just in case no one has seen it yet, someone added in a hitbox overlay to the game.
http://www.dustloop.com/forums/index.php?/forums/topic/12495-xrd-pc-hitbox-overlay-mod/
It's not finished, yet. Projectiles still don't have their hitboxes yet but it's still great for checking out normals.

That's hot. I dunno why that's not standard on fighters now a days. I mean Marvel 3 for the PSP2 has it, but the PS360 version doesn't. Which is just... "WTF."

Never forget.
Yeah, it's really something that should be essential nowadays. For most ArcSys games we're out of luck unless someone is kind enough to upload them to Dustloop. Outside of Skullgirls and UMvC3 Vita are there any titles that have hitbox viewers in-game?

Well, unsurprisingly, it feels like the new patch made things worse. The "waiting for opponents" lobby glitch is back, ping is still a bad indicator of a connection, and I'm still having trouble connecting to lobbies that I shouldn't. Outside of adding an FPS counter to the ping, which I'm not even sure what that's for since EVERY room I've seen has been a 4, I don't know what the end result of the latest humongous patch was.
They rolled back the 1.3 patch yesterday.
oh this is where this thread went
well, i made some dumb mod real fast that changes the shadows to be pitch black like those palettes in other arcsys games because i saw an example of it for axl and was like 'yeah i want that'
unfortunately actually using mods is annoying- there's no simple 'put this file in there and don't think about it ever again' you gotta use a dang injector

here's a comparison to tell the diff i guess

Looks pretty good, but that's pretty much the strength of the art style. It looks really nice when stylized like that. I mean they tweaked a bit in Revelator on their own anyway.
I gotta admit I can't tell the difference.
edit: Nevermind, I'm a complete idiot and was comparing Sol on the left in the first shot with Sol on the left in the third shot.
about 200 per day at once
They really need to have another sale soon. But It is still pretty easy to find matches.
Agreed on crossplay though.

It was doing better prior to SFV's release. About 400 concurrent, which was plenty enough to find a match. Street Fighter is probably going to swallow other fighting games for a few months. Which is unfortunate, for Xrd, KI and BB.

Kind of want to go back into this game after SFV distracted me for a bit, when I get back from work. Anyone newish to GG in the EU still playing this?

Hey GAF, please crucify me if this seems irrelevant at this point in time.
I read this whole thread and my concern is about downsampling this game. I followed all instruction, copy pasted settings, tried everything. With GeDoSaTo, the game still throws me back to 720 resolution once i hit ALT+ENTER

are you playing SIGN or REVELATOR ? because GeDoSaTo only worked in SIGN for me

Hey, yeah sorry i probably should have mentioned in my post that i am in fact playing REVELATOR. It's odd that, i was able to get some post processing effects to work (which i suppose proves in someway that it should work theoretically) but not resolution.

oh I see, for REVELATOR I had to change my desktop resolution and use the same steps that zoobzone gave ya so I can have downsampling from 4k or 1620P to 1080p

This is the first method i tried. Changing resolution and or screen percentages does nothing for me.
EDIT: I hope they fix this in REV2. Or just allow higher res straight from the options menu. Please Arcsys Please.

Go also to your GPU driver settings and enable DSR (for Nvidia).

It is enabled of course. I play all my games in 4k or at least 1440. But thanks for the heads up anyways.
I could never get that guide to work for me either but I think this was the one I used that worked.

Now it crashes upon launch. Error can't launch D3D device? You know what. Fuck this. Frustration has taken it's toll on me. Will wait for REV2. And If this problem persists, i will just refund my money. Thanks anyway brother.
