This is totally amazing! Well done. I wonder how many players it can handle...You should organise a mass test with as many people as possible. Let's find out!

the server is currently set up for 16 player max. we had 11 at once so far and i could imagine that 16 might already be a bit too much.

When the game first boots it just shows a black screen, it takes about 60 seconds, it’s loading and dialing. Dial up isn’t really playable right now.

Does this work with a GDEMU? I ordered a BBA last week, would happily join in on the testing.

Tested this last night and I noticed that any fullscreen effects like when you're under water or have quad damage, the screen is only rending half of the effect. Not sure if this is a known issue or not. I can provide a screenshot.

it takes some time to connect with the pi and when it does the controll input lag makes it kind of unplayable.
