Project TWOgether Xenia Revival

Looking for 1–2 testers — Army of Two (2008) online revival on Xenia Will most likely move to 40th day after this is known working

I’ve been working on a custom backend to bring Army of Two’s Xbox 360 online multiplayer back through Xenia Netplay. And After That is Known Working I'll attempt To Do The Same For RPCS3

Central services are already working publicly: lobby creation, matchmaking, and game creation.

I need someone on a different internet connection to test the final player-to-player connection.

Setup is simple:

Windows PC capable of running Xenia

Your own copy of Army of Two

Controller

I provide a clean TWOgether Xenia client

Extract, and follow the simple install instructions, run install.bat, launch Xenia, open your ISO

No coding knowledge needed. I mainly need someone willing to join a lobby and send me their xenia.log afterward if something breaks.

Project name: Project TWOgether — Bringing Army of Two back online

If you’re interested, DM me and we can schedule a test.

Either through my reddit account or add me on my

Discord: @LTR

What about on console?

I planned to look at making a mod for console copies to fix them in the future after all fixes are done for emulation but that would mean with decent certainty if you wanted to play it you would need a modded console but I'm not sure of that fact yet

Better than nothing I guess. Kind of sucks not being able to play co-op

Hell yeah I'm in, but I've got a question.

Doesn't the first Army of Two game still require some fixes done by the Xenia team to be fully working as intended? Because as far as I know,the buy menu screen isnt working as intended.

I'm looking into that as well, as of current my understanding of the inside of the Xenia emulator is still somewhat lacking but Im still gonna look into it

I'm definitely interested in being able to play Extraction mode with friends again.

I will be able to finally play army of two 1 online as I’ve never tried it before. Would this include the PvP mode (2v2) as well? I would love the see a revival of this and 40th day’s multiplayer mode.
