LAN Emulation
#1
Hey guys. Loving the emulator. I was just playing Time Splitters II and it was very nostalgic!

I take part in regular LAN parties and we like to play the odd retro multiplayer game and frankly Time Splitters II would be a superb addition to our game list.

I realise the functionality is not in there at the moment but curiosity urges me to ask; are there any plans to emulate PS2 LAN (I believe they call it i-link?) across a LAN or the internet?

Kind regards, Aatwo.

It is possible to play PCSX2 games online already. The plugin is called Dev9. You can find it here http://pcsx2.net/download/viewcategory/9-plugins.html

Beware it is far from being fully functional though.

A bit late to reply, but hopefully better late than never.

The original poster was correct about using i.Link for Time Splitters 2, as it is not supported online anymore and can only be played by i.Link now. In addition, he was also correct that the functionality is not there as there are currently only null drivers for firewire, and something called fwlinuz, but I think it's a null driver with a different name pretty much. Don't feel so bad though, Age of Empires 2 players are waiting too.

Haha I know I'm better than my brother but he always says he can't race properly split screen and that's why he loses.

Stupid excuse haha.
