Backporting LAN and netplay: we're getting started! Jul 18th 2024, by Arisotura |
|
Progress on this will happen in the season3 branch. For now, this branch doesn't even build, so don't get all excited about it yet :P LAN should not be too difficult to backport, as it was largely functional. Netplay will be another story. It was built around the old multi-process IPC system, and is generally obsolete, so a lot of reworking will be needed to get it functional again. I'm hoping to be able to get all that to a functional state by November. We'll see how this goes. There's also work needed to properly integrate this to the UI. I'm thinking of enforcing one melonDS instance only when using LAN or netplay, to keep things simpler. For netplay, it would pretty much be required anyway, as we will need to have instances set up in a specific way. You can tell things aren't super fast on my side, I've pretty much taken a one-month break after getting doublemelon done. I need a big break from melonDS, which I will hopefully take after 1.0 is released. |

| Oh heck yeah! I've been doing tests with your older version that has LAN, and I can't wait to see more expansions on it! |

It's okay if it releases in 2025. It's better than it outright not releasing. Too much better, actually. Especially if we get what this Arisotura girl would call a "crapo" GitHub build because development stopped. |
