Configure Netplay

Will netplay work with 2 lakka hosts not on the same LAN? If so how would you configure that since you would need an external IP I’m assuming

There is a “search local network” option.

I understand that I’m talking about connecting to someone outside that in another state

Sorry I missunderstood your question, yes it works on the internets. You need to have one of the player beeing able to act as a server. For this you’ll need to configure your router to forward to the correct internal IP the needed port or use UPnP.

Perfect I’m going to try this tonight

You should try our experimental builds here http://le.builds.lakka.tv/ They have the latest RetroArch with intuitive netplay (thanks to UPnP)

Kiv, any insight on if Mednafen PSX netplay actually works on Retroarch?

There is a page that documents this, but I can’t find it anymore

I have a page that says it’s functioning (with no details), but I haven’t really gotten someone to test out various settings. Had a random try to join when I first tested and got a corrupt save file (which… I kind of expected).

So try stateless mode if beetle-psx supports it

I think it is this documentation.

Yeah, I would and thought that might be the issue, but don’t have anyone to test with…
