Netplay virtual console - rockinhc - 02-01-2016

Is it possible to netplay with virtual console games? I only see installed wads in the Wii System menu and don't see a way to netplay that. Tried searching "netplay virtual console" and nothing came up.

You can't use netplay with channels that are in the System Menu, but it should be possible to use it with WAD files, because they can show up in the game list just like ISO files.

I don't know why my wad installs aren't showing up in the gamelist. It does show up in the Wii System Menu though. What am I doing wrong?

I do have it set to Show Wads also...

Ok i figured it out. I had to set the directory of where my Wad files were in the configuration path. I thought installing the wads manually would have show in gamelist.

What you called "installed WADs" aren't actually WAD files, they're just channels. Only WAD files will show up in the game list.
