The latest version of XBSlink is now available. XBSlink is a pc application that allows you to play system-link multi-player Xbox 360, PS3 and PS2 games over the internet.
If you need a simple tutorial to follow so you can get setup with XBSlink, we already have a small tutorial which will show you how to utilize your own PC at home to play System Link Xbox 360 Games over the internet on your Homebrew JTAG Xbox360.
What's new/fixed (since v0.8.5.0):

fixed chat pane not scrolling to bottom when switching back from other pane after new message arrived
added message when a new device is added for remote a XBSlink node

added new node_list to main view
added background colors in Info pane: red background = no devices are known for node, green background = data packets have arrived
fixed packet statistic in status bar
fixed error message on startup when “forward only special MACs” is enabled
updated SharpPcap to 3.5.0 (new API!)

Since XBSlink V0.8.2.0 a new Cloud feature has been implemented. Learn more below.
What is the Cloud feature?
Many XBSlink users asked for a simpler way of finding and connection to other users. The Cloud feature helps with this. After loading a cloud list from a cloud list server it is as simple as pushing a button to connect to a cloud of other XBSlink users or to create a new cloud and wait for others to join you.
In contrast to the P2P protocol used by XBSlink, the cloud list is managed by a central server. The server script itself is pretty simple and a PHP+sqlite3 version is publicly available (see Downloads). Feel free to run your own XBSlink cloud list site!
What's new/fixed (v0.8.2.4):
* added detection of private subnet IPs (in new simple Cloud-list server v1.1) (v0.8.2.4)
* new detection of external public IP when UPnP & STUN is not used. (v0.8.2.4)
* passwords were transmitted in plain text. switched to MD5 hash. (v0.8.2.4)
* exception handling on failed UPnP port mapping (v0.8.2.4)
