Originally, I wasn't going to make a Team Edition thread, but the game has been finished for almost 2 months and I thought now would be a good time for a thread so maybe the people who don't play on kaillera regularly would know about it also.
We (@KOHR and I) started this project in early November 2017 and the first public BETA was finished about 2 months later in late December. A lot of the work was from previous months / years, it just needed to all come together.
The game was tested online for about a month, then we spent a few weeks fixing bugs for version 1.0, which was finished in February 2018.
I've been playing 4 player 2 on 2 UMK3 on kaillera since 2010, and in the past we needed a separate software program (UMK3 Unlocker) to 'auto switch' the controls. The host player would send the commands over the internet to switch the controls which made it unreliable at times especially in heavy lag, due to dropped inputs.
Team Edition does not 'switch' the controls over the internet, making it much more reliable than before. It can also be made to work offline relatively easily in future updates..
Features/changelog Video
The main features in version 1.0 are the same as in the BETA. This is pretty much the text from the video, copy and pasted...
Features:
- 2 on 2 Team Kombat for kaillera (if 4 or more players are detected).
*Future versions may have offline support*
- Player nicknames [up to 15 characters in length] for Kaillera and P2P.
- Support for up to 6 players (3 teams).
Required Emulator: MAME32++ 0.119 (February 2018 edition)
Emulator Download Link: (roms are not included)

Emulator-Rom communication:
The game will behave differently depending on the amount of players detected by the emulator...
2 Player Mode:
- All modes of play are selectable (1v1 Kombat, 4 Player 2 on 2 Kombat, and 8 Player Tournament).
- The wins counter DOES NOT reset after a loss (keeps track of all wins for both players).
3 Player Mode:

Rom Changes:

- If the start button is pressed twice on Ermac the cursor is moved to Scorpion or Kitana (depending on which side you're on) for quick Random Select ability.
- Human Smoke and Noob Saibot are at the selection screen. In 1v1 kombat they appear behind the character sprites.
- New palette for h.Smoke player 2 side.
- Two new paletes for Noob Saibot.

- Jax on player 2 side can 'gotcha' grab and dash-punch while charging LK.
- Sektor on player 2 side can fire a dumb missile while a smart missile is active.
- The WINS counter was repositioned on player 2 side
- When Noob Saibot is selected, voice says "It's official. You suck" instead of "Kano Wins."
- Error screen removed when game loads default values online.
- Multiple kombat arenas were aligned to fit the screen properly.
- Fixed palette selections when both players choose same character.
- Fixed bug where game stops working properly after 10 minutes in training mode (infinite time).
