How does netplay run? is it laggy/as laggy as pj64k? cos i find pj64k completley unplayable:'(. if not, will we ever see an emu that has little to no lag in netplay?

That depends, are you on dial-up? As far as I know, PJ64k works very well on broadband and great on a LAN.

Actually, broadband is *not* required, because large data is not required to be sent back and forth. Ping (latency) matters more than bandwidth. Even with 56k, you can have a low ping of under 200 ms.
As long as you have a good ping rate, Kaillera netplay shall be OK.
As long as you don't have an el-cheapo modem nor crappy ISP, your
netplay shall be good. An el-cheapo 56k modem is asking for high ping
rates. I had a major problem that turned out to be my 56k modem that
was causing my pings to be 300+ ms.
Getting a good quality 56k modem will allow pings to be less than 200 ms.
BTW, with the same processor frequency, PJ64k was playable for me and
was able to play Goldeneye 007 with Jimbot using Kaillera, but unfortunately, got desynced in the middle of the Goldeneye 007 gameplay and Jimbot said that Goldeneye 007 is prone to desyncing.

512/256 ADSL for me. I tried online play and it took 1 to 2 seconds for the game to respond to my controlls. The other guy was on a good connection too and we both had low pings. This was while playing goldeneye on pj64k. Dont talk to me about dialup please.....im just glad those days are behind me. AOL 56k wasnt the best combination:|
