More than 2 players?

Post by LordKao »

----> I have already read the sticky about how zsnes doenst support 2+ people on separate computers so don't yell at me about it.

Hello I was wondering if there is anyways to get more than 2 people (on separate computers) to play/observe each others...

I'm asking if there is any other ways around this, it works with SNES9k but if your not the server host the game is extremely choppy and unplayable for the other players...

Anyways to get to the point, is anyone aware of a way to get 3 people "viewing" the same game by means of hamachi/irc/ or anything else?

Thanks in advanced.

I'm not sure if you read it correctly.

Netplay is for 2 computers only. The only way another person could "watch" would be via something like RealVNC or Remote Desktop Connection, but I suspect the images would be uber choppy, and nothing to your liking.

Yes, you could. Our college uses it to make sure the teens aren't looking up porn or going on facebook/myspace, etc. Google on it, there is different software that allows remote viewing. Kind of like an active screen cam. Doing this over the Internet on anything less than cable/ISDN, would be off-sync at best. Make sure you have a good graphics card on both the computers being 'watched'.

If you find some good s.w., post the names. I'm interested, but this school's license is corporate only.
