In your tut it says how we need to enable devlink but doesn't it have to be disabled?

Also, people cannot join my game they try to connect then it says they timed out. I think I need the 30MS ping patch correct? That includes the kxam.patch and etc? I've tried working on it but no use. Something about a flasher and etc. Many are saying to enable devlink and others say don't. Please help me?

 

Thanks

sorry for the mistake and it has been corrected.

devlink must be off for the link to work. 30ms patch is already integrated in dashlaunch; its called pingpatch under networks in dashlaunch settings. no need to put kxam.patch.

furthermore, please note that 3701 or 3702 port might not work for everyone. in my old router, 3071 and 3702 port worked fine with link and in my new router these ports had trouble connecting to LiNK so i had to change them to a 5 digit port; for instance, now my ports are 48888 and 49999 and Link works again. i m telling you all these because if you are having a hard connecting to Link, then change your ports to 5 digits. but do this only you have followed the tut from top to bottem and then you are still unable to connect to LiNK.

let me know if you need any further clarification.

Beta one needed DevLink enabled, Beta two (current release) and all future updates will require devlink to be off. As for the pingpatch it is done in dashlaunch, simply install dashlaunch and be sure to check you launch.ini for

pingpatch=true

Pretty sure it is enabled by default anyways.

it is not region restricted, however even with the ping patch if the ping between the users is too high you will not see each other because the console just doesn't receive the data in time.Fix = get a better connection

hi..... how much ping could must be for playing online?

originally, xobox comes with 30 micro second ping embedded in to the system. when i check my ping, sometimes its 4 and sometime its 11. so i guess (its my assumption) you are good to go if u have anything around 15 below.

 

if you want more accurate answer, you should ask one of the devs they would know better. :)

the 30ms ping limit is patched by dashlaunch but some games might have their own ping limits. My guess is around 100

One small question about TU's.

I've tried, with 3 or 4 games, do download TU's with F3. After that the games does not run anymore untill I delete all TU's.

What am I doing wrong?!?

I currently set a bridge between my laptop's wireless connection and local area connection, then set an ethernet cable between the console and the laptop so the laptop receives the wireless signal and transfers it to the console.

Does that mean i just have to follow the instructions in red to get LINK to work?

If FSD is able to grab art for games, simply run the LiNK test and if you set everything up correctly, the test will pass and you will be able to play online.

 

Make sure you have DashLaunch (with PingPatch enabled and DevLink disabled) and Avatar/Kinect data installed.

once you are on the FSD3 manin screen, go to settings, select plugin settings, and then select F3Plugin:

1- Enable LiNK – always on – ticked

2- Enable UPNP for port mapping – ticked

3- Data port is 3071

4- Broadcast port is 3072

Finally click TEST and hopefully you should be pass all.
