We have an IRC channel on irc.rizon.net, #2hu8ch which is mainly for tech support and occasionally chatter for games that lack an in-game chat system. It's largely dead because we mostly use the thread for communication.
General discussion of Touhou gameplay is allowed and encouraged, though the main focus is organizing netplay matches.
We're playing more videogames, get in IRC for details.
Ethan Ross
What are some nice touhou-related mod ideas?
Brandon Reed
for minetest
Hunter Fisher
Please post more cute touhous, bonus points for touhous who wouldn't usually be cute unless breaking character e.g Yukari.
How are the vs games? PoFV I ignored because it looks confusing and the fighting games looked shitty, with PlayStation exclusive Reisen I can't say I want to support those spin offs.
I would post cute girls but I'm currently on my phone. With Kogasa and Kyouko I think the Buddhists have the most moe per faction, only SDM can compete.
Logan Reed
We're still lacking in mods. We did get the flying UFOs mod, but we don't have any mobs or danmaku.
They're all fun but they have quirks. Tasogare is going down a bad path.

Last thread was the oldest on Holla Forums for like 2 months straight, snaaaiiils pace.
Someone call the bully squad on this fag.
Jason Clark
They increase defense. Black ones increase attack. You can tell by looking at the unit stats.
Jack Gray
Thanks
I'm on to you Satan.
The older games where more traditional 2d fighters, and a lot of people like them better for that. The newer games seem like they where trying to go for something different. I like how they tried to make flight a part of combat, as appose to just being a longer jump, or a separate floor.
David Miller
Wrong match, oh well.
Christian Green
You guys play AoE? How good is everyone?
Cooper Rivera
You know me and I bully everyone.
Anthony Foster
Only as neet Reimu in that one issue of WaHH.
Kayden Flores
Time for wow, even more videogames. Get in the IRC.
Angel Bennett
We're in average absolutely awful (as in, no build order metas yet), but we have a pair or so of good players. Matches average from 4 to 6 players mostly in teamgames.
Adam Baker
I don't think its possible to beat the AI on Hard without cheesing it.
Christopher Lee
We're still playing, waiting for more players in the lobby. Come join in!
David Rivera
What game?
William Mitchell
Age of Ethanol
Joseph Thomas
Please gas me.
Jose Reyes
To anyone who wasn't in the IRC - next time I'm gonna host is gonna be on friday night. Generally, on weekends there's lots of people, so it's gonna be fun.
Oh, and if you're not familiar with Age of Ethanols, play a couple of games against bots and try to expand to midfield as hard as you can as opposed to just cheesing the AI with walls and blues/books while building an army - versus games are very often decided mid-game when your opponent expands to your borders and fucks your shit up completely.
We use jap version for online play because it fixes certain balance issues. It requires jap locale and jap time/date format. You can use the english version for practice and it's offline campaign is pretty much an extended tutorial on how to do shit.
So, to summarize, git gud and see you next weekend.

I figured it would be better to use IRC. 73.8.99.251:10800
Brody Collins
Did a game where I beat the AI on Normal. The trick is to make circles near their base and build up. I chose Soku for their strong green units and catfish. The enemy will attack, but the TC will be able to handle them for a long time. It just has to be repaired. One trick is to make a unit leave the TC. This will make the enemy chase them around. Around the time the AI is about to go to hard, destroy their TC. Once that is done, go around destroying everything in site. A bit of time was spent finding and destroying stragglers, but it was easy overall. The biggest problem was letting too many fairies die to enemy raids. It would be better to keep them away from the TC. The enemy, unless chasing, can only move between the two bases, so it will never find fairies outside of that range.
Eli Watson
Are we doing AoE on Friday? I was too late today.

You were about to have enough points to tick L but then you upgraded Shou. Points are used for upgrading hero units and spamming special skills from your heroes. You get them by building, creating units, and you get more from losing or killing units.

Also collecting resources increases points.

Will there be games today?
Parker Taylor
I've recently started playing Embodiment of the Scarlet Devil to see what Touhou is all about and I genuinely don't get why this series has such a dedicated fanbase. Sure, the games are fun but there are so many fangames, doujins and other shit, I don't get it, why the fuck is it THIS popular?
Henry Edwards
Lurk more.
Gavin Baker
There's no particular reason why it got so popular. Some people just get lucky and have their products or whatever they've made blow up in popularity by random chance. I look at them like memes, they happens inexplicably and for no reason and a ton of people jump on the hype train.
Just look at Pokemon Go or Flappy Bird. Though the Touhou games are definitely of higher production value than those and the amount of fan-created related content is on a more crazy scale than those.

Levi Robinson

Jeremiah Williams
Basically, I think Zun was at the right place at the right time. Like what said.
They predate cute girls doing cute things, and the waifu craze, despite the games never being about those things. The original games where just about Reimu stopping evil, and whatever zun thought was funny.

Ryder Myers
Which touhou fighter should I play?
Joseph Cruz
Iamp is sort of more like a conventional fighter and is fine if you aren't Meiling. Soku is most popular with random elements. ULiL is the furthest from a traditional fighter with no "ground" and instead neutral position is flying in the sky. Think of it as being able to jump up or down.
Matthew Morris
Most people play Soku, but we have few players who play any of them as of late. I could host some soku games tomorrow in burgertime afternoon hours if anyone is interested.
Jacob Ortiz
DC'd because I retardedly pressed alt tab by accident.
Jaxon Miller
That alone made you crash?
Whatever.
Brody Rodriguez

We have recently come up for a crack for AoE3. Here is a no effort pre cracked download link: wishful.cc/sp/public/touhou_threads/thrts3.7z It will be in the OP for the next thread.
When you start the game, you will see a window with a few options. Press 起動. In the menu, go to VSOnline. IP is 73.8.99.251:10800. If you are hosting, this value doesn't matter. Once there, press "Click HERE to Join". You should be in the game. If you are hosting, press 部屋の作成.

Alexander Rodriguez
They sound like cool dudes. I don't have japanese money.
Chase Harris
Now that we have the packer for AoE+, what changes should be made?
Ryder Allen
gay subtext
Xavier Clark
someone could finally translate it
Alexander Reyes
We can do that.
Luke White
It works. It will take a while to translate everything, but it's possible. Let's make it a project.
Camden Scott
Just paste in a translation from the english version and get someone to translate lines that weren't there, it's not rocket science.
Dominic Price
I want to do it right.
Dylan Cooper
Can't just do that, AoE+ has so many changes concerning unit costs, health, damage and behaviour values comparing to the english version that it would end up with plenty of errors. Asides from that, there's no proper translation of the Library faction itself since it doesn't exist in the english version, so that has to be done as well.
Jordan Sanchez
AoE+: 73.8.99.251:10800
James Cruz
Did anyone take a replay of that?
Owen Peterson
That was something else. Map control was split in half and it was very back and forth. There were many times I thought it was the end of us.
No we weren't. Well Ayaya was but i barely scraped by to help out. I din't even fully upgrade my blues because i lacked faith, despite sitting on 3 faith shrines through the entire match which i ignored for a ridiculous amount of time after reaching L.
Though we were on the lead in points through most of the match, until we ran out of wood, then it all went downhill as the waves of greens+blues crushed our reds. In retrospective i really should have expanded west of my base with at least enough to defend it from a small sized army. It wasn't a good flank to have, specially when it was a literal beeline for my circles with only a single wall as the only defensive measure.
Maybe we should turn on timers or point limits next time, that felt like two and a half hours of pure madness.
Easton Nelson
Well, Ayaya was playing better than you, yes, but you still managed to get a couple of good hits in, you weren't useless, you were about as useful than me in that game. Your biggest mistake was forgetting about faith and not making books, we won because we didn't run out of wood and we actually attacked with things that destroyed buildings. Also, next time ignore all my shit until my workers with your big armies, even if you lose them, I survived because you guys held back and didn't go to my treeline, or my breweries.
Julian Parker
GG
Christian Walker
Whenever we attacked you, End would flank me and drive all my attention plus some of Aya's to his assault, usually netting you enough time to outmicro and take out our combined forces. I din't use a single book outside of black books because i'm used to be able to deal with armies, even book armies, with just regular units. I really should have used red books at least on my assault to End at the middle of that match, it would have marked the difference between just taking out 3-4 blue circles and diverting all your forces to defend to something that would have won us the game for sure.
Jackson Price
Intense.
Christian Johnson
We didn't coordinate well enough. It's pretty hard without Mumble.
I neglected faith too. It prevented me from making white books and Erin. I should have also reinforced the wall on my western side. I did get to make a lot of books early on but I didn't pay much attention to the center shrines and didn't want to commit workers. Deforestation is a big factor in the late game. It has to be accounted for. I like long games like these. A timer is better for when someone has to leave.
Wyatt Hernandez
Maybe next weekend i'll get on it, if it's still the same.
Julian Brown
It's been down for a long time and I lost the original database, so the rooms would have to be recreated.
How many of you be interested in having a Mumble for communicating with your team during games?
Joshua Wright
definitely interested if it means a way to make sailol not sound like he's whispering from the other side of the street when he talks with his horrible mic
Good thing feminism evened out the sexual marketplace

Robert Clark
Do you two have the same version of the game? Is this a typo? Have you tried 10800?
Jaxon Miller
Yes, we have. Also later we tried netplay with super nintendo emulation and that still didn't work. Both of us turned off our firewalls to make sure that that wasn't what was keeping us from connecting, but no matter what we do, nothing works on any game or program.
Colton Stewart
Did you port foward? You need to foward the port through the router you're using to let it connect. You gotta foward to the specific computer that's hosting too, if there are more in the router's network, which is an option in most routers. You guys made sure to use the hamachi's VPN IPs? It's a different IP from your normal external IP, which is what lets you connect through as if it were a LAN connection. Eitherway, try using another port as 00000 isn't exactly friendly for hosting games.
Carson Martin
Games tonight?

Might as well post a recording of a game I lost. Still learning how to play it. no bully
Not those user but thats what we had to do to play.
Evan Russell
Nigger that's adorable.
David Davis
I think the main reason you lost was because you weren't beating out Suika's fast balls with your overwhelming projectiles. She was just grazing through yours lasers so the best time to use a laser is a little closer to the opponent. They'll try to melee and eat a laser.
I would like to play with someone but can't play online for some reason ever after forward porting. Or maybe that fault lies on the person I was trying to play with.
Ethan Ramirez
I love this bundle. Thanks to you retards you can buy every single game out of it on keysites for a dollar.

any mods you guys use when playing it and is there a way to setup a sever with mods nice dubs
Luis Long
We used to play the original KF a lot, but I haven't seen most of the regular players online for quite a while now. If there's a few people who want to play it, I can host for them.
When we play KF it's usually without mods, but if you want to you can always just add mutators to make it interesting. In UT we did use mods a bunch of times though. If you were to add mods the way you setup a server shouldn't be any different from setting up a server without them I think
