## DISCLAIMER
**THIS MOD IS INTENDED FOR PEOPLE WHO
ALREADY BOUGHT A RETAIL COPY OF SARPBC
ITS ONLY PURPOSE IS TO IMPROVE / PRESERVE
THE ONLINE FUNCTIONALITY
I DO NOT CONDONE PIRACY, THEREFORE
I STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO BUY THIS GAME
ON PS STORE BEFORE PLAYING**
### Requirements
- Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars v1.02 PKG for PS3 **(you must legally own this game!)**
- Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars v1.04 PKG (NPUB30035) (patch)
- `SARPBC Online Mod 1.15.pkg` (patch)
- `stuttering fix.pkg` (patch) (optional)
- [RPCS3](https://rpcs3.net/) PS3 Emulator
### SARBC Installation
**IMPORTANT**: Your packages MUST be installed in the order below (1.02 -> 1.04 -> 1.15):
1) Setup RPCS3 with the appropriate PS3 files per their [Quick Start](https://rpcs3.net/quickstart) instructions.
2) Install the Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket Powered Battle Cars v1.02 PKG file in RPCS3:
> File -> Install Packages/Raps/Edats -> Select the PKG file
3) Repeat step #2 with the SARBC 1.04 PKG
4) Repeat step #2 with `SARPBC Online Mod 1.15.pkg`
5) Optionally - Repeat step #2 with `stuttering fix.pkg`
### RPCN Setup
1) In RPCS3, enable RPCN under "PSN Status" and change "Network Status" to "Connected"
> Configuration -> Advanced -> Network
2) In RPCS3, create an RPCN account
> Configuration -> RPCN -> Account -> Create Account
> Follow the prompts and enter the token you receive via email
3) Add other RPCN friends - I can't help you there :-)
> Configuration -> RPCN -> Friends
### Play!!
1) In SARBC select "Play Online" and then select "Unranked Match" if hosting, or "Join A Friend" if your friend is hosting.
2) Once in the lobby with your friend, select "Start Matchmaking" (if hosting)
3) Win!!
### Notes
- Unless you need them for troubleshooting, silence the logs in RPCS3 to preserve HDD/SDD health
> Configuration - Advanced - Silence All Logs
- FPS are uncapped in the game engine, I suggest limiting them at around 120-180 in RPCS3
> Configuration - GPU - Framelimiter
- Some values in the game inputs have been adjusted in the patch. To take advantage of them, disable all emulator deadzones/antideadzones for controllers
### Known Issues
- The game can poorly for about 2 minutes at each boot due to emulator incompatibilities
(queue compile attempt and fail)
- Scoring a goal on the Galleon map crashes the game due too emulator incompatibilities
(fails to allocate memory)
- Saving replays crashes the game
