netplay - Project64k

[Jimbot]

well, I have five new questions.

Lets see who can tackle them.

1. How do you choose a game to host that doesnt pop up on the start a new game button when you want to host. I've heard people talking, oh, Mario Tennis works, but how do they host it? Its been prayin' on my mind.

2. Why is the pj64k in netplay graphics better than 1.4 or 1.5 just by myself!!!! In netplay, all of the shading is correct, everythings perfect execpt for the not seeing your own hand if your hosting or second player, but thats the oinly problem. With 1.5, the whole back of kirby is not colored, the shades are wrong, and a multitude of problems!!! what gives? How can just playing someone on the internet cause better graphics?

3. Does no sound speed things up with FPS during netplay? The easiest one I think.

4. In Mario Kart, it seems that only I have a half-a-second lag from pressing the button and executing. Therefore, I can't pummel people like I would like to do. Suggestions? Note: I haven't tried another plugin, I'll do that when...

5. Lately (10:25 PM Saturday night) the emulation64 server on k had 99 people on it. Therefore, I couldnt get in. Is there a problem? Or are there 99 pther losers that couldnt find dates?


Thats a lot to swallow hotquik

Well I can answer 1. In P64k u have to select ure rom directory and/or refresh the rom list. I think then u have to restart kaillera and join the server and click create a game then go into sub menu of First letter of the ROM (eg S for Super Smash Bros) and then select the ROM.

just like cool_al said, the rom list that the kaillera window shows is the same one of the rom browser, so you have to refresh the directory and reload the kaillera window

Are u sure? .... maybe the lag produced by the netplay lets you see other things that were there but were too fast for the human eye. Its just a theory

3. Does no sound speed things up with FPS during netplay? The easiest one I think.

Yes. That happens both online and offline, cauz your pc has lees work to do.

4. In Mario Kart, it seems that only I have a half-a-second lag from pressing the button and executing. Therefore, I can't pummel people like I would like to do. Suggestions? Note: I haven't tried another plugin, I'll do that when...

This is lag is mainly due the network use. Try playing in a closer server.

so u have a bunch of games where a dude picks a secret character while to another person, that character isnt selectable and all this havoc happens as a result

yup but if both people have cheats on then......

this is off topic and seriously random that I happened to stumble apon you guys.

Clements, in your sig you have a pic of star ocean translated.

My emails is gomejw00@oneonta.edu

my AIM screen name is 'Joey the Arm'

Could you contact me, I was just wondering how you got your copy of the rom translated.

I had a copy, it came with a graphics pack, but it wasn't translated though.

This is off-topic too, but should answer Mez' question

DeJap, the people who made the graphics pack, have also put out that translation patch. It's a WIP though - battles are not translated and look strange, menus might be (I forget). The dialogue is done, but in a very basic way - it's not up to the quality of Tales of Phantasia's translation for example.

There will eventually be a proper translation patch - I'd wait for that instead of spoiling your enjoyment with this early patch.

There has been a "recent" update showing progress on the battle menus and so forth on the official site here. Expected release date is some time in 2003.

I don't mean to be rude, but can you plz stop posting off-topic replies?
