Officially, DeSmuME DOES NOT support the use of builds with Wi-Fi support. The official team stance on this is as follows, and is as clear as it can get:Īs you may have come to find, Release versions and WIP builds distributed by DeSmuME developers do not have the Wi-Fi menu enabled, while builds provided by dodgy scener sites or the one your best friend in the whole wide world has handed to you on a USB key does.
DSi emulation (DSi-enhanced retail, DSi-exclusive retail, DSiWare)Ī DeSmuME fork with online multiplayer, which includes functional code that made it to official version 0.9.7 before being removed, is available and has been improved to allow for limited dumping of online data prior to the server shutdown in 2014, as well as a version allowing for using online play for a select few games and downloading DLC data from alternative servers with the backed-up data.Īt some point in 2010, development on these features was permanently discontinued and the developers distanced themselves from the above-mentioned fork. Several features aren't supported by DeSmuME and aren't parts of its future as per the emulator's current design philosophy.
This will be noticeable if an Xbox 360 controller's LT and RT inputs are mapped to emulate the DS's L and R buttons respectively. DeSmuME uses DirectInput if an Xbox 360 controller is being used.
