Ask and ye shall receive.

One of our DEV's dug this up, we wanted to hold off on releasing this until the open beta, but it seems needed now, so it will be released!

He did a bit of network sniffing, and discovered that HOME connects here:

http://game-updates.online.scee.com:...0_2_0/DATA.XML

Aside from the archives, the SELF and other interesting files, the real interesting one that seems important at the moment is the: http://game-updates.online.scee.com:...NCHOPTIONS.XML

Now I don't have HOME here to tinker, but that max players option seems interesting, someone mind try changing it to something other than zero?

Nevertheless, its more pieces to the puzzle!

i meant only the installation.

So I've set up the PS3 Proxy Server program, set the IP to 192.168.1.102... that's the IP of my computer, is that right? I saw people posting 192.168.1.96... but whenever I put that in, I get an error in the proxy program. I have no idea where I should be looking for this thing on my PS3, or why it would be here now because I've replaced 3 files. Any advice is helpful, thanks.

Tried changing the falses to trues in data.xml and tried changing the 0 to a higher value in the gamelaunchoptions.xml, but still no luck. I have to think we are on the right path though.

Yeah, it SHOULD be the IP of your computer that you enter into the Proxy Program....
You also enter that same IP address into the Proxy Settings on the PS3...
(At least that's how it works with the F@H method.)
