Thanks everyone who i got to hang out with this weekend, was rad getting to chill with y'all

Was cool seeing everyone again. When I get home I'll pull the replays from the setups I brought.

I won't organize them but if you remember which setup you were on (Faust copypasta, mini RoboKy, mini Pot, Johnny Cat) you could probably fine your set if you wanted

good seeing you all, it was a great Combo Breaker!

As promised here's the replays off all my Mini PCs. These are just dumps of all the replays on there, so if you want the stuff just from combo breaker find ones with the right time stamp (in EST).

Named after which sticker was placed on each one.

sweet, thank you

I am pretty certain these ones were used by pools 2 (GGA2 and GGB2)

#

Yeah ill get on that this week. Also gonna troubleshoot how to mute the ps5 pad audio without also muting the sound duplication for stream. May just have to do it manually but I have an idea of how to do it quickly, I apologize for that def not something I anticipated

faint flume
#

That's no worries lol, sorry to cause everyone trouble for that

buoyant patrol
#

It's a good thing we are able to catch these issues as we scale up at least. I also learned about the "-socdlikehitbox" launch option this weekend for keyboard so that should be the default for tourney imo, jade and i already added it on our setups

ggs, nice meeting some of y'all at CB~

+1 ggs to everyone, great seeing you all

also feel free to hit me up for games; i wanna start actually getting more intentional sets in with people instead of just hitting up quick match

It wasn't OmegaTomHanks that's for sure

Once I get their name I'll probably put the time stamps in the description and maybe change the title + thumb and report the link in #plus-r-videos

might have been George Jeppson?

George Jeppson is Saint of Circumstance in this discord. The other pots I know there were docbach and dok

#

yes that's me

#

I use default h

buoyant patrol
#

Also I'm still planning to upload the top 16/top 8 replays, and upload to youtube the 2 top 16 matches we played offstream

Wanna gather the replays from the pools setups but they were being used for casuals before and after, so might be tough to sort lol

#

Been working on more optimizations on the setups themselves. I got 1000hz overclocking to work for both keyboards and controllers. Less lag and frameskips 👍

rancid aurora

is ok, thanks

ivory kiln
#

@twilit halo yo what was the name of the game you brought a setup for during your +R pools?

#

it looked like a street fighter clone except it had some special move comeback mechanic and the grappler literally had pot buster

buoyant patrol
#

@faint flume we figured out how to mute the ps5 pad audio while keeping the rest of the outputs for stream. Already implemented the fix on my mini PCs for ceo/taku

Dan-Ku-Ga (断仇牙) is the unreleased update to an obscure Taito fighting game, Kaiser Knuckle/Global Champion. It brings with it overhauled systems, playable bosses, new moves, and a generally much higher degree of quality and playability.
Slated for a release in late 1994, the game was discontinued after location testing and eventually leaked to ...

Hello! I found out that the .zip I had uploaded had corrupted files from the RoboKy mini PC. All the replays from CB had been 0 bytes. I've put the correct replay files in this .zip.

#

does anybody have info on what the setups will be/what kind of controllers are supported?

naive kraken
#

Lately it's all PC setups (either plussy boxes, laptops, or Steam Decks), so basically anything you'd use at home is supported.

#

The tournament will have its own rules about what's allowed as far as modified controllers go.

Anyone have a room I can crash at from Thursday-sunday? Maybe monday if available

We collectively have a lot of extra mini PCs coming to Combo Breaker, and probably at least one folding table. If anyone has chairs, monitors, power strips, etc. it could help build out the escalator setups

Are you scratching at the door like a cat

rancid aurora
#

The maps are here

#

So whatever number it says in startgg for your pools will correspond to the place on the map.

#

Weirdly I have the physical map too in their zine program guide and it seems outdated cause the +R pools table is not on that map, only in the digital version.

leaden veldt
#

Gotcha thanks!

#

My brain is too small to decipher this still where would D232 pool be 😅

#

Just like where it says 232 on the map

I will figure it out

rancid aurora

#

I seek casuals before pools, where to go?

dusk fractal
#

Hopefully there are some setups. It’s the area beneath the hotel lobby

rancid aurora
#

I need to do that too. I’ll check out the escalator at the main hotel lobby. But if they’re not there anymore might just go to the Schaumburg ballroom where some casuals for the main games are, or I guess go to my pool setups just before my pool starts.

I set the clock to midwest time when I put each PC down

So all those replays are labeled like 2025
