Multiplayer Emulation

[wendlethebum]

I was wondering if there were any PSX emulators that had netplay settings akin to zSNES.

zSNES had the option to switch controllers at any time during gameplay without having to close the game to change the settings.

Me and a friend play across two different computers, and we played a lot of old single player games that way. So I'm trying to find a switch controller option for a psx emulator.

I'm familiar with Kaillera, but kaillera prompts for player selection before you start the game, and I haven't seen any settings that allow that to be changed during gameplay.

Kind of but is sucks mostly

Cyberpad is the name of it but it also uses Kaillera

As the name hints it's pad presses that are networked no game data is transfused so if a game uses random elements what is shown on one machine will be different to the other (e.g. Diablo uses random dungeons)

You will want a front end for ePSXe and maybe an older version

No version of ePSXe lets you chose your own Pad plugin but it is possible by command line or a front end

SNES emulators actually sync the game data so the game play is the same on both ends

RetroArch has netplay but I am not sure how the Mednafen PSX core will hold up , I think the PCSX ReARMed core may fare better online.
