Best SNES emulator with netplay?
What is the best emulator for the SNES so far that has the best least buggiest netplay?
ZSnes is soooo buggy with netplay and takes a lot of fine tuning to make it work. Also what was the point in disabling it in 1.5?

Shouldn't it be obvious? If the code was already bad as is, what difference would it have made to disable it? The netplay code wasn't even faring well in the first place, besides being linked to the movie code at the time.

Yeah, thinking back on all those years I spent using ZSNES's netplay flawlessly where it performed better than any other emulator netplay I've ever used, I'm surprised it took them THIS long to remove it!Deathlike2 wrote:Shouldn't it be obvious?

ZSNES is still the king if you need frame relative input macros, and also if you need to fast forward the whole process, say to 30x realtime? I had to get my Soul Blazer game to level 50 in under 5 minutes somehow!
Yeah, it would be great if bsnes had netplay capability, and it's entirely possible it won't have the desync problems that zsnes currently has.

It would be really, really depressing if it required 10x the resources and still didn't manage to have higher compatibility ;)Mike wrote:but like after i tried bsnes, it really does run closer to the actual Snes.
The "easy" part is finding someone who knows how to use sockets to help make it happen. The "hard" part will be finding two people with powerful enough systems. IIRC, you need some extra headroom even above fullspeed for netplay synchronization.Mike wrote:I wonder if it will ever have net play.
And for laptop battery life.kode54 wrote:ZSNES is still the king if you need frame relative input macros, and also if you need to fast forward the whole process, say to 30x realtime?
A lot of this stuff all correlates together: frame-relative input macros are a function of automated input, which is similar to movie playback and netplay input.
Definitely no desync issues in the core, I've been careful about that since day one. Would make bug testing much more frustrating.kode54 wrote:Yeah, it would be great if bsnes had netplay capability, and it's entirely possible it won't have the desync problems that zsnes currently has.

i used to do that the long way
roughly 5 hours and 45 minutes of swish-swish-swish 12K exp every 2.5 seconds
the 4 times I played through the game to try and find a different ending

So did I. My brother suggested the macro method, since that's what he's done before, heh.grinvader wrote:fuck you, mankode54 wrote:I had to get my Soul Blazer game to level 50 in under 5 minutes somehow!

Anyway, it's not like it really makes the end game much easier. It only speeds up the first part of the final boss, the second part is always dependent on number of successful hits, regardless of attack strength.
I suppose it does mean you have more HP to withstand more hits during the fight, though. Eh, whatever.
I seem to recall the Soulblazer boss wasn't too terrible, then again I was probably at the max level anyway. Been a long, long time. Need to replay that and IoG one of these days.
Now Ys 3 on the other hand, that's a hard mother fucker. I have to grind way, way past where you're supposed to. And even fully maxed out, I can't get past the third or fourth area without cheating >_<
