I've got XWA installed, and I think updated, so whenever you have time tomorrow we can give that at try too.

I got Directx9... most of the components are still based on directx8, not much of a difference yet really.

welp, the firewall test no worky. Can't play either way, host or join :'(
XvT and XWA are just too old to play with a firewall. The code just isn't in the game to handle NAT'ed packets. Tank helped me test last night. Our machines were communicating just fine, but niether game knew what to do with my packets since they were NAT'ed, never could "connect" in the game. Oh well, guess I will think of something else.

heh yeah it's a bummer. Technically the firewall worked... if only I had access to the game(s) source code... could probably be fixed with a few lines of code to handle translated packets :-\ ah well

*a loud whoos is heard over goku's head*
It's best to watch a furball collapse, analyzing the movements of the enemy. Watch how they maneuver, when they fire, how they break. Visualize your own attacks against those observations, then go in for the kill. Sometimes, though, you don't get that advantage. It's at these times where you go in guns blazing, but keep your head on a swivel.
