Is this possible via XLink Kai?
I only succesfully connected to another cube but nerver to two cubes.
Mario Kart says 3 Gamecubes found but after pressing start every player gets a connection error.
Any ideas?

Don't know about Kai, but from my experience with Warp Pipe, more than 2 Warp Pipe/Kai clients introduces extreme lag (because the GameCube LAN protocol waits for a round trip for all GameCubes before advancing a frame), to the point of causing frequent disconnects.

Having multiple GameCubes using one Warp Pipe/Kai client (in the same house) will not introduce much extra lag.

Sounds like a job for..... Control Simulator!

I played a few ControlSim games today online - my opponent had a ping of about 260, and I was on a 56k modem. It worked quite well, though. The game never slows down, even if you lag. If you lag, players will appear to "jerk" into different places.

really interessting,it seems to be that our internet-connection is to slow four online-gaminig via normal LAN-mod.
All cube-players have had 128K upload and a ping of 80.

that would be cool though if it did work with control sim

1.the lan mode gives you your own screen.
2.it has up to 8 players.
3. and of course it would run much faster than it currently does.

cant wait Very Happy
