This thread is for Tekken night and setting up CAG matches for Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection, GGPO, and other fighting games, NOT for people to spam the thread members with requests for Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection or any other PSN games. Please refrain from harassing the CAGs in this thread with those requests. If you want Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection, get a job or go to the game trading thread: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=174965
The next Tekken night is going to be on Saturday 7/19 at around 9 p.m. PST. We sometimes get started as early as 8 p.m. PST, but the room should definitely be up and running by the time 9 rolls around. I've changed the night to Saturday at the request of CAGs. This should make for more consistent showings from other CAGs. I may not always be available on Saturday evenings, but I will post in this thread usually the day before to let everybody know if I can't make it. In the event that I'm not available, any of the regulars feel free to start the room and send out invites.
The room settings are standard with first to 3 rounds to win (best of five), 60 second rounds, the room will be named "CAG" so non-regulars can find the room, and mics off to help with lag. The room alternates from ranked to unranked week to week. I don't prefer one to the other, so we can go always ranked or always unranked depending on what you guys like.
To make sure the lag is kept to a minimum obviously don't be downloading or uploading anything, please turn off the media server connection on your PS3 while playing, a wired connection is preferred to a wireless connection but not necessary, and most importantly make sure your PS3's NAT type is 1 or 2. To do this follow the instructions from Markman's webpage http://sdtekken.com/t5dr/online/setup-guide/ or use the step-by-step tutorial with pictures I made below:
I can also help you out if you're having problems. If you're NAT type 3, the room may automatically kick you out, and rooms you make may not be accessible to others. It's not the host that is kicking you out. You'll probably have problems entering the CAG room and most of the other rooms online until you switch from NAT type 3 to either NAT type 1 or 2. An alternative method would be to plug your PS3 directly into your modem bypassing all of this rigmarole which would set you to NAT type 1.
If anybody is interested let me know in this thread with your PSN name, or send me a friend add on the PSN (notorious_pip) with a message that you're from CAG interested in a Tekken night. Rooms max out at eight people, so first come, first serve, but I'll send an invite to everybody that's interested when the room is made and resend invites as people leave.
I'm always open to suggestions or casual matches. Feel free to leave suggestions here or hit me up for some matches if you see me online. I'll post in here whenever I go online to play Tekken in case anyone wants to play. I think it'd be a good idea for people to post in here when they go online also. That way you get to play with some decent folk rather than some of the lag abusers and rank whores online.
Here's a list of Tekken night regulars for host reference and CAGs to have a healthy list of people to play. If I have forgotten anyone or you wish to be added to the list, just let me know.

To do this follow the instructions from Markman's webpage http://sdtekken.com/t5dr/online/setup-guide/ or use the step-by-step tutorial with pictures I made below:
Setting your PS3 to a static IP
1. On your PC click Start>Run
2. Type in "cmd" and click "OK"
3. At the prompt type in "ipconfig /all" (Note the space between "ipconfig" and "/all")
4. Write down the
-"IP Address"
-"Subnet Mask"
-"Default Gateway"
-"DNS Servers" (there should be three sets of numbers, but you only need to know two).
Once you have it done, you can close the command prompt.
5. On your PS3 go to Settings>Network Settings>Internet Connection Settings and click on "Yes" at the prompt.
6. Select "Custom" and choose whether you're on a wired or wireless connection.
7. Select "Manual Settings" and choose "Auto-Detect" at the Speed and Duplex menu.
8. Choose "Manual" at the IP Address Setting screen.
9. For "IP" Address" input the first three numbers listed in the "IP Address" you wrote down from the command prompt, and fill in the last number with whatever 100 or larger number you want your PS3's static IP to be. Just be sure that the number isn't the IP address of anything else on your network (i.e. PCs). For example, mine is 192.168.1.104 It should be noted that the third number varies from router to router so it could be something like 192.168.0.104. Whatever you set it as, this will be your PS3's new static IP Address. Fill in the "Subnet Mask" with the "Subnet Mask" you wrote down from the command prompt. Fill in "Default Router" with the "Default Gateway" you wrote down. Fill in "Primary DNS" and "Secondary DNS" each with a different set of numbers you wrote down from "DNS Servers" and click right
10. Set the MTU to "Automatic.
11. Select "Do Not Use" for the Proxy Server menu.
12. Select whichever you want for the UnPnP menu.
13. At the next screen with all of your new settings, press "X" to save your settings and then test your new connection. It shouldn't be NAT Type 2 yet at this point because you haven't port forwarded your PS3 or set it as the DMZ on your network.
Port Forwarding Your PS3
1. Access your router by opening a web browser and typing the "Default Gateway" from before into your address bar.
(The next steps will vary from router to router. I suggest going to http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm or your router's user manual to see how you do it for your particular router)
2. Go into the Port Forward menu and forward the following ports
-80 (TCP)
-10070-10080 (TCP & UDP)
-6000-7000 (UDP)
-3658 (UDP)
For each of these forwarded port ranges, set the IP address for each one to your PS3's new static IP address. If your router has the option, make sure all of these ranges are "Enabled"
3. Once finished, save these settings on your router.
4. Go to your PS3 and go to Settings>Network Settings>Internet Connection Test
5. Now test your connection to see if your PS3 is port forwarded correctly. If it is, then your NAT Type should be NAT Type: 2. If it fails, set your PS3 as the network's DMZ as follows.
Setting Your PS3 as the Network's DMZ (Optional)
This step is only needed if you cannot get your PS3's NAT Type to Type 2 by just port forwarding the proper ports
1. Access your router by opening a web browser and typing the "Default Gateway" from before into your address bar.
(The next steps will vary from router to router. I suggest going to http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm or your router's user manual to see how you do it for your particular router)
2. Go into the DMZ menu (it may be a submenu of the port forward menu or other menu)
3. Enable the DMZ and set the "DMZ Host IP Address" as the PS3's new static IP address.
4. Save the settings on your router.
5. Go to your PS3 and go to Settings>Network Settings>Internet Connection Test
6. Now test your connection to see if your PS3 is port forwarded correctly. If it is, then your NAT Type should be Nat Type: 2.
1. On your PC click Start>Run
2. Type in "cmd" and click "OK"
