Homebrew Having trouble making melonds download play (local multiplayer) work.

[Gess1t]

i'm trying to check if it's possible to play on multi on this game using some tricks and port forwarding to host a game of mario party ds (game which doesn't support wifi multi by default).

however, i'm stuck at the first step: making local multiplayer work. my ethernet adapter is selected, direct more is enable, local mode is enabled, by when i search for a session, it doesn't find my other instance of melonds.

any idea?

MPDS is a DLP multiplayer game, not multi-card.

well then, how to make it work if it's possible?

I've never gotten an emulator working, but on a normal DS, you'd open DLP while the MPDS player is waiting. After a moment, it would appear on the DLP player's screen.

If the player appears on the host, press OK

Nothing appear on the host, it just keep downloading

EDIT: i rebooted both instances, now it appear on my host, but when i press ok, the host FPS Lower to 30, and then, communication failed.

i've read somewhere that the timing is tight to make download play work, so i believe this fps drop cause the communication to fail
