In {{revision|5.0-16891}} or newer, Dolphin can generate <i>deterministic</i> SD Cards for netplay! If you have "Automatically sync with Folder on emulation start and end" enabled on all computers, and the folders have the same exact files in them (file creation dates do not matter, as they will be scrubbed during the process), the generated SD card will be identical. Note that this <i>does not</i> sync any files - the folders on all computers must be identical. | |||
If using an older build or not dealing with copyrighted content, we highly recommend just generating an SD card on one computer, and then copying that SD card to all other computers to ensure that things are the same. However, if that virtual SD card was used offline or online with write block disabled, the MD5 checksum will change ("Date Accessed" of the files are what's different in virtual SD card), but will not cause immediate syncs. If you are using a Wii game launcher app for various mods, users on all ends must have the same copies of homebrew app and the game in their game list first, then set the game as default ISO, as mentioned in previous section. | |||
