The emulator program has it's own "memory card", this is either stored in the main folder, or some other place (like my documents). don't think too much about this one, just save your game when you feel like it, it works.

To use your PS3 controller you need to install the SIXAXIS driver. Use google to find the appropriate version for your OS.

Here's a memory card file with everything unlocked. Good to have if you don't wanna do the Osiris bullshit to unlock stuff.
Default location is: My Documents>PCSX2>memcards

With these emulators, is it necessary to use a controller or can you use "n" "m" "," like in MBAC? I want to know before I start downloading stuff and messing with my PS2 disk.

I dunno if you Americans care, but MBAA has netplay now and here's how:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ovpflibbi3vzim1
Download this version of PCSX2, Load the MBAA ISO into it, then on the PCSX2 menu go to System>Boot netplay.

Some stuff I noticed today:

* If one presses tab (speed limiter off/on) it will desync. (I removed my tab key just in case);
* The game may be slow in the beggining, but it's only in the start (maybe it has something to do with one of the players no focusing the game window)

To host:
Port 7500;
Your own IP: http://www.whatismyip.com/;
Mark the hoster box;
Port 7500.

To connect:
Port 7500;
IP of who is hosting
Do not mark the hoster box;
Port 7500.

Is there any optimal settings for netplay?  I don't mind if graphics looks like crap... as long as it doesn't lag too badly :O.  I tried it with a friend and he's running laptop... lag was okay, something I can live with until 1.07 comes out but yeah... or else I'll just need to commute to my friends house again....

For those who could get it to work, how much latency were you facing? When I tried it, I got a black screen for the longest time and my tester and I deduced that this netplay wasn't suitable for high latency... or is it?

Would playing this at 30-40ms latency be possible?

Actually, it slows down to 4fps at the beginning until someone connects.
The black screen thingy is the black screen which appears before the MBAA memory save load menu appears when you boot the game up.

Yeah, mine slowed down to a stagnant 4fps too. Seems like we were too impatient. Trying again now.

That would give you 2 (maybe even 1?) delay, which is very playable. 4 delay and above are really bad, but honestly, this PS2 netplay is a lot better than I'd imagined.
Also, if you're hosting, someone has to connect within 1-2 mins or it won't work.
Also, after every session (waiting for someone to connect, playing together, or getting an error), restart the emulator completely. It's still a work in progress thing.

Thanks for the reply. Right now, we are both at the "memory card loaded" page. But neither of our button presses did anything.

Another question, is IRC or Hamachi required? Because it seems that direct IP doesn't work so well right now...

IRC is just a chat client, so no. Hamachi isn't required either, but the one hosting needs to have his port opened/forwarded (just like with MBAC). I suppose you could use Hamachi and host through there, but I don't really know how Hamachi works so I can't tell you.

Well, I've tested with Hamachi and it works like a charm. Almost. Is there any way to set the delay?

Not in the current build, no. The guy is still working on it.
