Hello,

I'm having some problem with netplay. I've started using dolphin since a week and a half (on version 4.0.9281). And with a friend we tried playing super mario bros wii together through netplay. We've set up everything correctly ( according to https://fr.dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/netplay-guide/?cr=fr) I think. but whenever we start the game it freezes on the "wrist strap" warning, we tried deleting and "reinstalling" the Isos, to be sure we have the exact same save file. But nothing seems to do it.
Please help me Smile

Have a nice day and thanks for reading
Wiimotes currently don't work on netplay, so you can't play New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
we are using emulated wiimotes, and I've seen gameplay of people playing it online :p, what could be the way to play it please
Try to find an older version of Dolphin where emulated Wiimotes work in netplay. (Real Wiimotes have never worked.) It can be tricky to set up, and I can't help much with it.
Do you know in what version emulated wiimotes work in netplay.
BTW areyou sure that's the cause of the freeze at launch?

PS: we managed to launch the game once, at first try, and never worked again.

4.0-8969 and later definitely don't work. Versions shortly before that probably don't work. Other than that, you're mostly on your own.

I'm not sure about that, but you're going to need Wiimote support to play the game regardless.
Thanks for helping Smile will try what you said Big Grin. have a nice day
We tried with a version supporting wiimotes, (4.0.8880) it doesn't work either, we have the same problem of the game freezing right away at the starts, we tried changing the buffer didn't work. We also tried launching the netplay server with only one person on it, it works. but can't manage to connect as 2 person.

Do you have any other idea of what could cause the freeze?
I'm one of the people who got NSMBWii to work on netplay at one point. I recommend not trying to do this. Period. It's scary and bad and requires the users to be extremely advanced just to get the games to boot, and the builds that work/don't work are unknown.
oh ok then I won't try :p, but would you happen to you know what netplay wii games work :p? I'd love to play some games with my friend :p. or is the wii just a pain in the butt to set up?

PS: just realized it's your video that i've seen on youtube :p.
