@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

  • 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.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    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)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
