Uh...
that's a local IP, only people connected on your wifi network can play with you.

 

[GoodCookie88]

lol I just need your address now and your wifi pass...

This doesn't belong in emulators and homebrew development..

 

[DarkRioru]

oh... ... is there a tutorial on how to do this???

Well there shouldn't be any tutorial because it should be really easy already right?

 

[DarkRioru]

By that philosophy that means I'm new too.

Are you sure that works?

Pretty sure it doesn't just work that way

Wait, you live in Kenner? Or is IP2Location messed up? If it is right, then me too

Could Hamachi work?
Possibly may make things laggy but could be worth a try, I dunno.
To make two computers appear as if they are on the same network, i have no idea if you could like, connect a 3DS to a network like that and then have two computers connected through hamachi and make the 3DSes think they are on the same local network, idk.
Or maybe I'm dumb and that isn't how hamachi works at all lol.

But ctrQuake is a 3DS port of quake. It may be a PC game, but it's not on a PC.

Can consoles/external devices connect to hamachi? I've used it a few years ago, but that was only limited to PC

I'm not sure, if not hamachi then I wonder if it would be possible to have another software do something like this.
'cause your computer and your 3DS would be on the same local network, so I wonder if there would be a way for the computer to kinda put the 3DS in another local network with someone else's 3DS over the internet.

I mean, this connects via internet but apparently only uses local IPs or something? I'm not too savvy when it comes to that so I don't know if there could be a way to "forward" a local ip like this to the internet somehow.

That or maybe see if it'd be possible to modify ctrquake to use actual public IPs.
