Well currently I have haxchi installed. My question is if this works ALWAYS (assuming DS legally bought and in the memory of the console) or is it a matter of luck if the console does not suffer a brick?

It works always but don't remove/move the DS donor/Haxchi title or do a system reset or you will have a brick. You must run the installer to remove it if you ever want to get rid of it.

Then I could install it with all confidence, because I have haxchi installed and it works fine.

Thank you for your answer.
My game pad and wiiremote are losing synchronization.
Besides, the destination of auto boot is set to VWII HBC.
How can I do it?
afaik you can hit the wiiu sync button when itsays autoboot to stop the autobooting, but without a controller whats the point of turning on the console? also how can a gamepad loose the sync? ...

Thank you for your answer!
While autobooting was displayed, I could escape by pressing the synchronization button for about 2 seconds!
Every one I'm sorry.

Why can't you install CBHC while a usb device is plugged in? I accidentally installed it with a flash drive plugged in and it still worked.
You can, it's just a 100% reliable way to avoid setting a game on external storage as launcher (which would then fail to load after you reboot)

Bought a Wii U off ebay and it has no gamepad or SD card. It has cbhc on it as when I turn it on I eventually get a "-3" if there is no SD card and a "-5" if I insert an SD card on it. Any suggestions on how I can access boot menu without a gamepad?

Edit: Nevermind. Got it to get to Homebrew launcher, just needed to put older version of Homebrew launcher on SD card.

change cbhc to launh to systen menu that way you get sysmenu cfw on boot, and no need for sd card, just press home button on a controller when you see the autoboot message.

Hi folks !

I tried to find some help among you with an issue i've met with cbhc.

CBHC WORKS !!! At least that's what i thought. Everytime i want the wiiu booted, its okay, when i tried to play cds games, no issue as expected. BUT I CANT PLAY DOWNLOADED GAMES ! I tried wiiu usb helper several times and when i install the game and launch it for the 1st time, the wiiu makes the update then launch the game. THEN GENERAL FREEEEEEZZZZZZEEEE ^^!

I used to play with my game on a usb key it worked fine, with a cfw. But when i tried it few days ago, it wasn't work so i updated to CBHC which seemed to be well installed...

What did i do wrong ? Does anybody have an idea ? Ask if you need any further information ! Thanks ahead for help !

Is there any possibility of adding the option to autoboot into any channel/game, such as a Haxchi shortcut or whatever disk is inserted?

each colored node has overlay information with changelog, so you can find what you want easily.

The only one I see that has got added functionalities is @EyeKey 's one, correct me if I'm wrong :)

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
