    I know the threads not up for the tournament yet but I wanted to put this up because if we don't get equipment then we don't get a tournament.

    What we have so far is :
    4 Xbox VGA cables
    2 PS VGA cables
    5 Speakers with connectors
    and hopefully
    4 Monitors

    I can bring an Xbox.

    So what can you bring?

    I am bringing the VSHG and the recording equipment. Won't have room for much else


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Sairus


    Sadly I shall be graduating that day, so no dodgy xbox for you this time =D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,823 ✭✭✭✭K.O.Kiki


    Since it's a community-run event (and you have choice), do you even want to have PS3s?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    We always had a choice. We could have rented one or the other in XGC. In fact we had more of a choice in XGC because now it all depends on what people can bring.

    I'm in favour of sticking to both consoles as it encourages people to come rather than one console which could drive people away. The headaches that are caused by this are imo worth it, if one person comes to play on Playstation that wouldn't have come if it was Xbox only.

    There are 2 XBOXs in my house so I'm sure I can bring at least one of them - just need to check with my housemates first.

    You should also get your housemates to come along.

    I may also bring my laptop for a little side action on the day.

    One of them isn't half bad at SF - D4RK ONION has been teaching him a bit too :p He doesn't seem to have any interest in tournaments though ;_;

    (My other 2 housemates would rather be eaten alive than even play SF >_<)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,020 ✭✭✭Ry


    I can bring the lols and or the rage. Most likely both.

    You're welcome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,985 ✭✭✭animaX


    I can't guarantee that I can even come to this inferno now. If i get a job offer i'll be starting in early november and will have to move and stuff. If things change i'll let you know.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭bush


    I can bring
    xbox (hdmi or component/composite) or ps3 (hdmi or composite)
    speakers and connectors


    I agree with kiki about running it on 1 format too. I think we should have a discussion about it sometime in another thread.

    1 Xbox
    1 SSF4

    Where's this one gonna be?

    Component is better for le hauppage, just so people know.

    I have an xbox and PS3 component cable anyways.

    I don't think there'll be any trouble discussing the formats but we should focus on making inferno work in our new home first.

    Actually, I think this is a decision the current Committee (and not the forum members -- too many heads = too many opinions = nothing getting done) should agree on very quickly.
    ...
    We do still HAVE a committee, right?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,070 ✭✭✭Placebo


    i think as a group we should start a revolution by phasing out ps3's for good.
    You may start by selling them on adverts

    OBVIOUSLY if we are going to pick one, its going to be XBOX.
    unless everyone mods their sticks with that pcb on akhb shop

    Yup, we're still here, currently beavering away at Gamer expo. Hai guys.


    Told you you wouldn't even notice us :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    What date is this on?

    If I'm around I can bring an xbox + vga cable and a projector or 24" monitor (whichever is needed more)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    The 6th. First Saturday of November.

    Monitor would be needed. They have a projector there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,181 ✭✭✭✭Jim


    I'm busy that day.

    lol


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,082 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    If DLC characters have to be paid for, then PS3 is the way to go as DLC can be used on up to five seperate PS3s.

    EDIT: I can bring a 360 and PS3 and five sets of Argos speakers, that are powered by USB.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    I'm for running the tournament on one console as well, but if it's easier on Orim for the first one in Exchange to run it a way he's more comfortable with I've no problem waiting until after Inferno 14 to discuss changing it.

    I can bring

    xbox
    vga cable
    monitor
    ssf4


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,006 ✭✭✭Ramza


    Where is the next Inferno being held? I'll come anyway ^^

    I'm waiting for Cobelcog to post saying he can bring the salt :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,229 ✭✭✭Dreddybajs


    The Exchange in Temple Bar


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,082 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    I can bring a TV too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp


    I'll bring a flask of tea and a bad attitude.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,302 ✭✭✭Voa


    I've only got some ps3 stuff, like a HDMI cable or a component if needed. I've only the chunky PS3, and it's a lil too far for comfort for a weighty machine on my back, I'm afraid...


    Though, if needed/wanted, I've a USB headset I can bring for commentators to use on Doom's setup (assuming it's going through the hauppage and into the Apple), and I wouldn't mind giving a go at comming a few games myself*:pac:


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    I've the RB Mic which is USB and pretty high quality if you need a second one. I can bring my xbox if it's needed but I'd rather do that only if i had to, I don't like bringing it such a long way. I can also bring the small screen I brought last time if it's wanted.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭bush


    Take my stuff off the list. I cant go, dam.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 488 ✭✭the 1st hardter

    well if someone brings their profile on an memory stick they are on the xbox too.

    But i do love that 5 ps3 thing alright. It's how me and mates put about 100 euro on a 3v card and buy songs for rock band on an account we made an everyone can dl them :)

    If I can make it there, I'll bring my PS3 controller adapter for the 360. Just make PS3 pad-players life a bit easier.

    They gave me that username!

    lol just kidding, those are actually the initials for my name :) I was going for "Jay", but that was already taken. Maybe we should have a best-out-of-3 match to see which one is the real Jim ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    well one thing we know is that jim definitely isnt the real jim.

    Are ya barry?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,239 ✭✭✭UberPrinny_Baal


    It's a fairly well known fact that J.I.M. is a robot we built in your likeness to replace you Jim.

    I forget what the acronym letters all stand for, but trust me, it was pretty hilarious.

    Right I placed an order for 4 monitors.
    I can bring one as well since we're looking short.

    So currently we have :
    6 monitors (Community, Orim, Speedboat)
    1 TV (Chopper)
    5 Xboxs (Orim, Hotaru, Gory, Speedboat, Chopper)
    1 PS3 (Chopper)

    I should be able to get a second xbox and Bush has said he'll come so if he could bring his PS3 then we have 8 consoles.
    NeoJim has said he can bring his PS to Xbox adapter so it shouldn't be a big deal to get playstation ppl on xboxs and we can start phasing out PS altogether.

    As it stands we need one more display but preferably two monitors and we can just use choppers TV as a spectator display.

    Cables wise we are fine. Speakers are nearly covered but we may be short one or two. Might pick up some more before the day.

    We're pretty much set so...Get...Hype?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,878 ✭✭✭bush


    Ive got speakers and adapter too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,237 ✭✭✭Owwmykneecap


    Bollocksingcunt****, I've a grad to attend, Might be out of this...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    I can take my PS3 with me if needed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 955 ✭✭✭GorySnake


    6 consoles isnt too bad. Inferno 11 (that was the one in Space 54 wasnt it?) had 8 but 2 werent used much after the group stage. I suppose just having 6 would slow down groups a bit.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    We have eight.

    Bush said he would bring one, I may be able to get a second and Fergus has said that he can bring a PS3.

    So at this stage I would say if Bush could bring his xbox and fergus brings his PS3 then we have eight consoles with 6 xboxs and 2 PS3s.

    I think at this stage we are sort one or two displays and that's it.
    If someone could double check that for me, I'd appreciate it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    I also have the full complete alternative costume pack 2 and one costume pack from the 1st DLC.

    I will take 2 PS3 controllers too. Will the consoles be run on SD or HD TVs? I can take HD cable and AV cable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    The consoles will be run on monitors with VGA cables.
    I have two PS3 VGA cables so they will covered. Doom can chip in with what may or may not be needed for recording purposes.

    BTW everyone that is offering equipment is a saint and we couldn't do this without your selflessness. I just hope the day makes it all worthwhile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,888 ✭✭✭Fergus_


    So I will only need to take the power cable?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,082 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Will there be anyone driving in from the Tallaght direction, that could give me and my equipment a lift?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,164 ✭✭✭Konata


    Housemate won't let me take the XBOX. Sorrrrrrrrry >_<


  • Moderators Posts: 8,678 ✭✭✭D4RK ONION


    Women! Can't trust 'em. I'll drag mine up so, if you need it.


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,872 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Okay, here's the situation.

    I never received the powered splitter from Hong Kong so no commentary. Sorry lads.


    I DO have a component to VGA converter so if someone has Terry's VGA splitter we can still have the "Spectator" screen.

    What I don't have is VGA cables. Could people bring theirs please? I don't use them at home so I don't have any (laptops ftw).
