FRESH INSTALL RECOMMENDED

YOU SHOULD STILL EXPECT SOME ROUGH EDGES IT'S BETA SOFTWARE

Hey! this adds a new connection method. The traversal connection method allows you to join session using host codes with the help of an intermediary server ran by me. This method should remove the need to use external VPNs or other methods to connect for most people.

YOU SHOULD STILL EXPECT SOME ROUGH EDGES IT'S BETA SOFTWARE

Hey! there have been a lot of improvements over the last few months.
here is a summary:

  • Transition to a new Netplay User Interface
  • On-screen netplay chat (hotkey can be found in the settings).
  • You can now just map the standard analog controller for your input configuration (only the dpad will be used for directional inputs).
  • Player 2's controller doesn't need to be active anymore since this is done automatically.
  • Various desync fixes making pretty much all games desync free now (If you find an outlier please report it in the discord!).
  • Jump-in netplay session with support for 2 active players and 4 spectators.
  • Desync notifications when a desync has been detected.
  • Session Passwords: you can set a password to keep unwanted guests out when you are the host
  • MemoryCard Sync: the memory card of the host will sync with the clients.
  • Setting Sync: all important netplay settings now sync and it will also the alert the user when the right bios or game can't be found.
    (BE WARNED CHEATS DON'T SYNC YET YOU HAVE TO SYNC THEM MANUALLY)
  • Fightcade style netplay savestates: you now have a savestate automatically load when starting a netplay session as a host to do this you have to create a folder called netplay within your savestates folder. and within that folder you savestate, your path should look something like this:
    image
    (MAKE SURE THAT THE FILE NAME XXXX-XXXXX.sav MATCHES THE GAME YOU WANT TO LOAD)

This could not be done without the help of the main Duckstation Maintainer ❤️ Thank you.
