@Batt discovered a bug (thanks for reporting) that could crash Nintendont while showing the BIOS. I would like everyone to redownload the update who is on r387 already to avoid crashes. Just use the internal updater. I'm sorry for this...

Is there an icon and meta.xml file for the mastermod version? I ask because when I first started using this mod all I did was overwrite the orginal boot.dol in my nintendont folder this mod's boot.dol and everything has been working great. But whenever I go into HBC to launch it (which I only do when I want to update. I use USB Loader GX to actually launch the games) it still shows the regular Nintendont icon and has the regular Nintendont description. It's not really a big deal or anything but I would like it to show and say mastermod version if that is possible.

Sadly offline.
You really don't need that whole pack. Just that one loading screen I had talked to you about before. All the rest is putting themes in nintendont itself which is only something you would do if you were planning on launching your games from nintendont. At least that's my opinion.

What about my question above about an xml file and icon for the mastermod version that I can use with Homebrew Channel?

You could edit the XML File yourself if you want to display it something else ;)

Thank you. I don't really need the XML to say anything specific. It's just right now I think the xml that is there is the official Nintendont one from the last time I updated the official one. I just wasn't sure if you guys had your own that would be updated with the mastermod updates that would have your descriptions of what changed, what version it is on, who was involved in creating it, etc.

I can only save the settings in Nintendont Mastermod 387 when I launch it via the HBC. When I try to launch it from Wiiflow (using the latest Abz Mastermod) the settings have all reverted to defaults. Is this expected behaviour?

All I'm really after beyond the vanilla Nintendont included in the Wiiflow mastermod is to be able to use a custom loader screen - perhaps there is another way to accomplish that?

Mr. Mysterio's Mod r388 is online :)

From what I know, Abz Mastermod WiiFlow deletes the config file/writes a new one before booting Nintendont to give Nintendont the right settings. That's why the config is flushed.

That sounds right - and I'd be fine with that if autoboot was working when I launch GC games from Wiiflow using Nintendont Mastermod, but it doesn't seem to be? Will instead ask me to choose between SD/USB.

Switching back to vanilla Nintendont 387 works just fine with autobooting from Wiiflow - but obviously doesn't allow custom load screens...

Any advice/tips would be much appreciated!

you have to update both wiiflow and nintendont mastermods for the autoboot to work

    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i don't think nvidia wants to get in the x64 cpu market anyways

    you've seen how much intel is struggling getting into the gpu market

    Yeah I think Nvidia s future lays in AI GPU acceleration stuff if they can get that going it's going to be super interesting in the long term

    @Psionic Roshambo AI assisted game creation is kinda already here, there was recently that AI that can turn any 2D image into a fully modeled 3D object, it's not perfect, but it's a starting point, beats starting from zero

    before that there was one to generate a fully modeled scene from a 2D image

    but most recently, there was one that actually generates a working unity scene with terrain and textures already set up that you can import right into unity, that's a huge time saver right there
