PCSX2 Online Split Screen play, possible? (sh.itjust.works)

Hey ya'll,

I've had this idea for a while, wanting to play all my PS2 games with my friend who never really got a chance to experience PS2. It'd be so great if it would just work on steam remote play, but that is broken as of now (the "remoteplay whatever" on github is the only thing I found, it is broken as of today). The only other option i've seen is Parsec, and you can't host from the Linux side!! Which I need it to. I'm on linux, he's on windows.

In my mind it's not hard.. I need his pc's input, and then stream my video audio to him...the same way steam remote play does it.

Any help appreciated! Even if this could work for Duckstation for ps1 games, that'd still be fun.

The LRPS2 core for RetroArch may be an option, but for the Steam version of RetroArch, you'll probably have to drag and drop LRPS2's files manually to install it, since there isn't a Steam DLC for it.

You can map the steam directories to a local version of RetroArch.

Interesting idea. Sounds like you'd have to make a lot of symlinks for that though.
