Annoying NetPlay bug

[D00k]

As many of you are probably already aware, NetPlay in 1964 is pretty much impossible at this point (0.8.5) as the NetPlay window steals focus so you can't click on the emulator after you start a net game, effectively removing any playability whatsoever. Has anyone recompiled 1964 to fix this? I don't have .NET so I'm pretty much stranded on this one. Has anyone else had success getting around this flaw?

Also, was NetPlay always like this? I know that other Kaillera-implemented emulators such as FinalBurn work just fine.

Yeah, I wanted to get a game of Goldeneye going over the LAN. Would replacing the kaillera DLL with an older version fix it?

If you want you can try it, the spec hasn't changed to where it wouldn't work. Let me know whether or not that solves your problem.

It seems the Kaillera DLL has been in use since February of 2002. I tried one from June 2001 and it had the same problem, so I assume the problem is with 1964's implementation of Kaillera and not the DLL itself?
