Hacking Nintendont - wiimote & nunchuck support discussions

[Seismonaut]

IF you use the release version of nintentont do you have the freezing / crashing problem as well?

yep, really seems to be a problem with my isos

Howard Could you please upload Nintendont r. 2.176 with NC patch? It fixes games like Hitman 2, Call of Duty 2 and Freedom Fighters, titles that would benefit from IR aiming.

 

[Seismonaut]

I think theres already a 2.178?

 

[Seismonaut]

[Howard]

NO!
That verersion was outdated over 2 hours ago. It would take half that time to revert to an older version and then update again. Your going to have to settle for 2.178.

I' ve said it before and i'll say it again, Howard you rule! Thanks for the update!

I updated manually to latest rev178 using a source patch...
Is nagger's config the default now in beta 10?

No.
I am inclined to go with fix94 on this. I plan on leaving the default config as is, so that the buttons are mapped as closely as possable to the labels. Its easier for new users to understand. I also find myself using the dpad for pregame menues. Then switching if I want a different config once I start the game.

 

[nakata6790]

No it isn't but i would sure like that

I understand however, the reasoning given on the above post by Howard (& Fix94), so no worries

Hello. Thanks to superd work that is continuously being done on nintendont, now in r.2.183 James Bond Nightfire, James Bond From Russia with Love, James Bond Agent Under Fire are now stable and working.

Could we please get the NC mod updated to 2.183 (or whetever is the latest version at the time you read this ) to play those games with wiimote controls?

Are you sharing the source with the people who donated too? You're legally required to.

No
The boot.dol is not being publicly distributed, so the source requirement does not apply.

I'm pretty sure you still have to share it with the people you distribute the binary to. It's not like this is just your work. You're effectively selling other people's GPL code.

I also thought about this before. On one hand you can say he is making a private beta and releases everything at the end and since his changes are not public at the moment it is ok. On the other hand only people who donated get the beta, which is like he is selling a GPL program. Imo, as long as the admins of this site and the other comitters of the project are ok with this, it is ok.

I don't like it, but I never made many contributions to the kernel itself. I've mostly focused on the loader. Unless the heavy committers like FIX94 object I'll leave it alone.

My understanding of the gpl v2 is that as long as their is no PUBLIC distribution of the modified program their is no requirement to provide source. The nunchuck support is the work work of abz and myself. I am not selling anything. If you feel I am missing something in the gpl lets continue this in pm.

Selling is permitted under gpl v2.
Private contract modifications are also allowed.
