A Comprehensive Guide to Netplay in Project M: A Tutorial for Advanced Smash Bros. Fans

In this article, we will dive into the world of netplay with Project M Cobalt Legacy, a popular modification (mod) based on Super Mario Bros. Brawl's engine.

Before you begin your journey, it is essential to understand what you need:

1. Dolphin Emulator: This powerful tool allows you to run Nintendo GameCube games on various operating systems.

2. A computer capable of running Dolphin and netplay smoothly

3. A copy of Super Smash Bros. Buffle Island (Brawl) ISO

Now that we have covered the necessary requirements, let's dive into the tutorial.

Step 1: Setting Up Your Emulator

Firstly, download and install Dolphin from its official website if you haven't already. After successful installation, launch the emulator and select 'File' > 'Project M Cobalt Legacy (Legacy TE) - Netplay' to begin configuring your netplay settings.

In this menu, ensure that 'Netplay Enable' is checked and set your region accordingly. You can also adjust other advanced options here if needed but leave them at their default values unless you're experienced with Dolphin's configuration.

Step 2: Creating a Lobby

With everything setup properly on both computers (or devices), open up Brawl in either the original or emulator version depending upon which platform you prefer playing from! Once inside, go to 'Multiplayer' > 'Online Play'. Here select 'Create Session' then choose your desired game mode - we recommend 1v1 for optimal performance during our first few matches together.

Next to 'Match Type', select either 'Tournament' or 'Free For All,' depending on the type of match you want. If playing with friends, it's also a good idea to set up password protection by clicking on 'Password' and entering an appropriate code that only your group will know.

Step 3: Joining a Lobby

Once someone has created their own lobby using these steps above (and possibly invited others through various means such as Steam chat or Discord), simply open Dolphin again from either PC/Mac OS X running Windows via WINE if necessary then navigate back into 'Game' > 'Load Game'. From here select 'Brawl ISO' located within your local files directory where you extracted it earlier today before double clicking once more so that everything loads correctly after which time a list containing all currently active lobbies should appear.

Double-click on the lobby whose name matches what was given during step 2 when prompted for confirmation to join this particular match. If there are any lag issues or connection problems, try adjusting your internet speeds first before resorting to more advanced troubleshooting techniques like changing up video settings within Dolphin itself!

And that's it! With these simple steps and a basic understanding of netplay concepts under your belt (pun intended), you're ready to start playing online matches with friends using Project M Cobalt Legacy. Remember always be patient when learning new things, especially if this is your first time diving into competitive gaming communities - everyone starts somewhere after all!
