[Perfect Dark]Kaillera Emulating was really cool when I started. It worked very well with my friends and we had a good time, and perfect connection.

Well, now, everytime I would go to emulate with a friend in Kaillera, he would ask why aren't you moving, and I would reply "I'm at the choose profile section" and he would reply, "WUT? I'm already in game!"

Well, it seems when I start up the ROM in Mupen, it takes me to the screen, but I have to create my own profile again. But it still wont let me.

All my settings are set correctly.

I have no idea what the problem is. And when I go to reply to him, it crashes.

It's crashed at least 6 times in the past 10 minutes. And it's making me aggravated.

What you describe means game desynched and you both are at different "parts" of game like you are in profile section and he's in game which means game is out of sync for you two. To prevent desync from occuring check you both have all same plugins and emulator settings since if they aren't the same they will cause game to desynch, also different save files could cause game to desync so make sure player who joined the game either don't have save file at all(no need for save since mupen will automatically use hosts save file) or has excactly the same save file as host does.

Alright. But usually when you desynch, it brings up a message. It didn't bring it up. He is asking me to reinstall mupen [Since we checked, all our settings were the same.]

Just checking, are you or is someone on a wireless internet connection? I always have to ask that question first.

I've haven't emulated in the past year, but wireless connections don't work, or at least never did. It causes desynch. It drops packets. Yeah it might work for a game or two or three maybe, but you know it's going to desynch it's just a matter of time.

I have a profile in PD called "Dark"

That doesn't even load

It says "New agent"

and when I create a new agent, it actually wont let me, because it says I have no room in my controller pack.

[And yes, I've added the controller pack, but it STILL didn't work.]

Under "Options" -> "Input Settings...", under Controller 1 in the "Controller Pak" tab, do you have "Mem Pak" selected? I remember I needed to set that there in order for my controller pak saves (those on the PC) to even show up. Not sure why the save data that's supposed to be on the cartridge can't be read. I've been having issues with modified ROMs, but I think normal PD ROMs play fine.
