Got Kaillera running on my server, and 10ms, so it was on top of the list :-) So got kaillera server running,
Games need to be in the same folder as CCS64, then it works a treat, see you all around sometime on the server when I have it on

Figured it out last night.

ok, about my server, I want to try it on initially when I am online, as Mame people can use it aswell, so I want to check its bandwidth as it is on a dedicated server, but as far as I can see from my tests yesterday, you can use any Kaillera room, you only need to know where everyone is going.

Here is what I do to play online:
Create a folder called CCs64

Unzip CCS64 into this folder, put some multiplayer games in this same folder.

Doubleclick on the CCs64 game.

now click F9

Now on "1541 Device 8..." click on the right arrow

Scroll all the way down to the last line which is
(Dir) .

Here click F3

the Kaillera window will open

Choose a Server, usually Wireplay Retro Gaming is there - its in leeds, so uk ppl shoudl get fast response.


When you double click on that server, you enter the room

Now at the bottom of that window, you will see a button called "create new room", there you should see your games.

Choose a game and wait for someone....

Or Join someone if they are there with a game you like.

I will put a Comodore 64 server online if I see it wont make my Bandwidth go too high.

Hope this explains it..........

here is a problem that we found testing:
We learned one more thing. No use putting several games on one disk.
It always loads " * "

I think it's intentional. Going into a menu quits multiplayer mode so there's no way to select a specific file inside the disk.
Another side effect is that you can't play two-sided games yet. But we're only at the beginning here! :-)
