Multiplayer issue with Four Swords

Nathonye opened this issue · 3 comments

I’m trying to play Four Swords for the GBA and can’t get past the “Linking with other systems… Please wait a moment.” screen. Here and there I can get the little colored gba icon to show on one of them, but as soon as the other gets to the same screen it disappears. I’ve seen people say this game works but I can barely find any info on it anywhere. I’m hoping I could find some here.

Version: 0.10.3
Yes I clicked new multiplayer window before I opened the game
Settings:
Display driver: OpenGL (I have tried Software)
Audio driver: SDL
FPS target: Native (59.7275)
Sync: Video off Audio on
No loading of cheats or previous states
When inactive: both settings off
Idle loops: Run all
Bios: yes and confirmed working with other games

Specs:
Windows 11
Intel i7 10700k
16 GB Memory
RTX 3070

Try using sync video on audio off. The audio will sound worse but it should work. Also when using video sync you're gonna want the FPS target set to 60, not native. It'll be slightly faster, but less than 1%

Thank you so much for the quick reply
Behavior didn’t change though :/

Please retest with the latest development version. I've been working on a completely rewritten link implementation for the past several months and it just got merged today.
