RPCN (Demon's Souls): Issues when using two PCs on the same network. #8952
Comments
Are you both on the same shared internet connection? (I assume so, but want to confirm). |
Looking at the rpcs3 side of the commits for rpcn, it does appear that UDP port 3658 is being used for the connection. |
I've never used Wireshark before but assuming I can find a good tutorial I'll give it a shot and see what the PS3s are doing. Thank you for the response. |
Wireshark might be 'tricky'. You'd essentially need an old-fashioned ethernet 'hub' to connect the 2x PS3s to your internet and to connect a PC into that hub also. Or a switch with port mirroring (which is how I'd do it). |
I wasn't able to get any information from the PS3s via Wireshark nor could my router show me what they were doing. However I ran Wireshark while attempting to connect to my roommate and the error shows up perfectly fine in it. It basically shows Source Port and Destination port are 3658 just as you said. |
We'd really need to see a full 'conversation' at startup of the two PS3s to identify who negotiates the alternate ports. I'm sure it's something that @RipleyTom likely has in a 'todo' list somewhere. |
Having the same problem here. Same house. 2 PCs. Both on different RPCN accounts. Connect and see messages on both PCs. See each other's summon signs. But summoning fails everytime. I also succesfully got summoned but other people. |
A temporary workaround is to forward port 3658 to one of the PCs behind the router, then have the other PC connect to a VPN where port 3658 is forwarded on the VPN. I successfully played through the game in co-op with another PC behind the same router with that setup. |
Yeah, forwarded 3658 externally on both PCs to different ports in the router but still no go. It's strange. :/ |
This method does work but requires a VPN. |
Which VPN did you guys use ? Would you mind describing the process roughly ? @Lil-Sassy @Mimickal |
Same problem for me. 2 on the same network and impossible to join. |
NordVPN for me. Works well, no latency that I could see. You open it click, click a dot somewhere in your country, and you're done. Used for a whole month without issues, just make sure you log into the VPN before you open RPCS3 or the servers will get confused and think you're already logged in. You can try the trial if you don't want to commit, just remove your c.card afterwards so you don't get charged for not using it. |
I realize I was asked this several months ago at this point, but I set my own basic VPN up on a remote server I own. I set up an iptables rule on the remote server to forward port 3658 to port 13658 on my local router, which then redirected to my machine on port 3658. This freed up external port 3658 on the local router to forward to my friend's PC. Kind of elaborate, but it does work. |
Quick summary
Unable to connect two PCs that are on the same network together through games that use RPCN (Demon's Souls).
Details
Trying to play Demon's Souls with my roommate
We can connect to other people without any errors but if we try to connect to each other it will always fail but only through RPCS3/RPCN. Fog wall will go up as will the Summoning Phantom / Being Summoned message
If we use two PS3s and connect to Yuvi's server, it works just fine.

When using two real PS3s (on the same network) connected to Yuvi's server. We can play together perfectly fine.
