Lua scripts for turning 1-player games into 2-player games using inventory sharing.

This is the source code repo for emu-coop. Probably you would rather be looking at the project webpage, which has more detail and a downloadable SNES emulator for Windows.

emu-coop

This directory contains some Lua scripts that, when loaded by a compliant emulator such as snes9x-rr or FCEUX, can synchronize emulator state over the internet (allowing "cooperative" playthroughs of single-player games).

Each game you want to use this with requires a "mode" file in the modes/ directory. Currently included are modes for Link to the Past, the Link to the Past "Randomizer", Zelda 1 and Super Metroid. WARNING: Modes are PROGRAMS, like a .exe file. Do not install a mode file unless it came from someone you know and trust.

To run, run coop.lua. To run with additional debug messages (more verbose errors, and visibility for every message sent) run debug.lua instead.
