fooling with m2emu network

Hi,
I'm trying to setup m2emulator linked on two different pc's via lan. I can get m2emulator to work but i cannot get m2lagfix to work on top of it.
The m2lagfix small window has a red bar in it (supposed to be green when working?) and the cars in daytona still flicker.
So I'm not running the two emulators on the same machine, but on 2 different PC's on a LAN network (not cross linked, but on a switch)
I am able to run a lot of other linked arcade games like supermodel, teknoparrot etc.

cab1 ip address is 192.168.0.11
cab2 ip address is 192.168.0.12
currently working m2emulator link is:

cab1:
[Network]
RxPort=1978
NextIP=192.168.0.12
NextPort=1978
FrameSync=1

cab2:
[Network]
RxPort=1978
NextIP=192.168.0.11
NextPort=1978
FrameSync=1

What would the m2lagfix.ini would look like to make it work in this particular situation? I found various example ini files in this thread but they are all different, some really don't make sense (like 127.0.0.1 as remote ip address??), and none of them work for me. Anyone in the same setup as me can share their working m2lagfix.ini?
Thanks

Try putting:

cab1:

RxPort=11200
NextIP=192.168.0.12
NextPort=44405
FrameSync=1


cab2:
[Network]
RxPort=44405
NextIP=192.168.0.11
NextPort=11200
FrameSync=1

Hi, thanks for your reply. But the suggestion you have is the contents of the m2network.ini but I want to know the contents of a working m2lagfix.ini in my situation. Lan on m2emulator itself works for me, so the contents of m2network.ini is fine for me.

Here are my files that work if you assume pc1 is 192.168.0.2 and pc2 is 192.168.0.3. No blinking cars.

Pc1 (192.168.0.2) - Set to master/car number 1 in test menu.
—m2lagfix.ini
[m2rx]
LocalHost=0.0.0.0
LocalPort=9000
RemoteHost=192.168.0.2
RemotePort=9001
StallDetection=1

[m2tx]
LocalHost-192.168.0.2
LocalPort=9002
RemoteHost=192.168.0.3
RemotePort=9000

—m2network.ini
RxPort=9001
NextIP=192.168.0.3
NextPort=9001

Pc2 (192.168.0.3 - set to slave and car 2 in test menu)

Note: This was keyed in via iPhone pic to text so double check for any typos but numbers should be right. Also, if using Launchbox, esc key script may not auto save test menu changes so open m2emu and load DaytonaUSA outside Bigbox/LB or take away LB esc script temporarily)
MrThunderwing:
Y'know, trying this lagfix out has been on my 'to-do' list for awhile, but because I started playing Daytona online again on the PS3 several years back, it kept slipping off my horizon... but I kept saying to myself I'll have a crack at getting it working sometime soon...

I just realised this thread is over 10 years old now.

10 years!
