Flycast online play on mobile... Need help now

[union7512]

I need help...
Well, more like I WANT help, but I would appreciate help at least.
I want to set up online play on flycast, on my mobile device, and I would like tips and help with setting it up on my device
Love, union7512

Flycast should be updated to v2.5
Settings > Network > Enable DCnet
That's it. Just start an online game how you normally would in whatever game you want to play.

If you need help with a specific game, this has instructions on how to access the online mode for a few.

Is it 2.5 specific or 2.5 and over

 

[Glimbo]

v2.5 is the latest stable but any other build after that should have it too.

or you u can checkout the flycast discord for Q&A

PSO requires extra steps to connect to online because it's still trying to use the dead Sega servers.

uhhhhh.... frankly..... no.... there hasn't been a apk of that sort. but if you use PC/laptop then yes... i really wish that flycast did play MvsC2 & CvSNK online by itself but no one has given a demo or a video of it.
