What if DeSmuME crashes/hangs/whatever during a WFC game? Timings are unpredictable, mainly due to the fact the data has to go through your network, then the internet, before reaching the WFC servers. Maybe the WFC protocol relies on a precise timing. But does the WFC protocol transfer MAC addresses at all? But chances are that it'll collide with existing MAC addresses. We can make a random DS-like MAC address. Maybe the WFC servers deny any connection from a device that doesn't have a DS-like MAC address. We can generate a MAC address randomly from the computer's MAC address. We can just take the MAC address of the user's computer. People would all follow the illegal path and download the same firmware image with the same MAC address. We can force users to have a firmware dump. If Nintendo sees like 500 users with the same MAC address, it'll look suspicious. The default MAC address used by DeSmuME is always the same (00:09:BF:12:34:56). If you know nothing about the technical part of the thing and just want to play pokemon over WFC, you will not be able to contribute to this discussion. The question is: are we allowing WFC connections from DeSmuME? Let's discuss this matter.įirst of all, no comments like 'plz make wfc work i rly want to play pokemon over wfc i rly want wfc blah blah'.
