Hacking [RELEASE] WiiVC Injector Script (GC/Wii/Homebrew Support)

[HackerBoy0412]

nintendont don't show my games and say that no game.iso in wiivc game

 

[victormr21]

Sorry for disturbing but I have been out of this.
I have seen some new things like Title ID linking to a WiiWare game, more forwarders, c2w... Can you explain me this news pls? @Cyan
Burn and thanks!

hmm, it could be hard to resume properly, and I don't know what you already know.

in a WiiU Wii virtual console channel, you can inject wii game, gamecube game or homebrew.
homebrew can be :
- the actual program
- a forwarder to program located on SD
- a Wiiware channel loader

generated WiiVC channels can be launched using the WiiU CPU speed in Wii mode, allowing higher processor power for Wii homebrew, such as WiiSX or not64 emulators.
This is the "c2w" (cafe 2 wii, WiiU mode 2 Wii mode) you've read.
to do that you need two steps, patching the firmware before launching the channel, and a patched channel using that patched firmware feature. you need both or it will not work.

Injecting roms into the vWii N64 Virtual Console is pretty easy. Get your WAD for a N64 VC title, dump the contents with ShowMiiWads, extract the 00000005.app U8 archive with ShowMiiWads, replace the rom or romc file with your own, repack the app and repack the wad.

Could anyone make a written tutorial for noobs?

and heres the second piece: the actual loader to load wii channels.
https://github.com/FIX94/wiivc_chan_booter
Together with the updated nfs2iso2nfs in -homebrew mode you should be able to make wii vc that boot installed channels on vwii.

Nice, experimenting with this now! Here's my results trying to boot up the Star Fox 64 vWii VC title:

• NFS2ISO2NFS -homebrew: GamePad isn't properly detected as a Classic Controller, the only option is to press the A Button to return to the Wii Menu (which does work).
• NFS2ISO2NFS -homebrew -passthrough: GamePad isn't usable as a controller at all, Wii Remotes connect properly as players 1-4 and can be used with attached classic controllers.
• NFS2ISO2NFS (no flags): TMD error when booting, should've known that would happen tho.

Like how certain Wii games just don't work well with Classic Controller emulation, vWii N64 titles look like they're going to be about the same.

thanks for confirming that stuff, same here with N64 files, will probably take a look at how they do their handling as the A button works so it must just be some detection method not handled by the firmware emu. and yea the -homebrew flag is required of course as it does need full hardware access, I do all sorts of fancy patching to make channel booting work.

Great! And thanks for keeping development rolling on NFS2ISO2NFS, the rest of the threads revolving around it have kinda stagnated.

Not sure if you're planning on pushing releases for NFS2ISO2NFS through that GitHub, if you do I'll take the latest from there and implement otherwise I'll use the latest one from your last mega link

BUT IS SPYRO THE DRAGON WORKING NOW Because let's be real if it is that should be it's own line item rite rite

 

[alpo845]

Can anyone give me a 2 second tutorial on how to inject WiiSXR and Not64? Is it just like Wii and GC games?

 

[shrinerlp]

Hopefully Wii U becomes the place for emulators!

Does that one have the crash on exit fix that FIX94 posted in his latest update?

 

[ploggy]

Should do, I haven't tested it yet

It alreally is we just need Not64 with gamepad support.

That and Retroarch WiiU is being worked on and fixed up. Its the most stable its ever been

I did think wiiu was killed by the piracy, I guess I was wrong, the wiiu is getting a more comfortable system with the new stuff. Who wants Switch homebrew having such wonderful things on wiiu to play around? [emoji38]

@aarti, I added links to forwarders to your mini-guide.
I just want to be sure I wrote the correct path to SD for WiiSX forwarder. it's sd:/apps/wiisx/ or wiisxr ?

it's sd:/apps/wiisxr/, because we are talking of WiiSXR and not WiiSX

Yup the good ol' Majora's Mask N64 Emulator for GameCube

The following games can be injected with that with varying results:

• Animal Forest (Probably lots of issues, didn't test long)
• Mario Kart 64 (Buggy Sound)
• Star Fox 64 (Buggy Sound)
• Super Mario 64 (Buggy Sound)

And then obviously Ocarina and Majora with almost no issues.

Also no dialog should show up during nfs2iso2nfs, only c2w_patcher. If you continue to have issues at that section go ahead and post your logs.

I can't get Super Mario 64 to save my game. Memcard emulation is enabled in Nintendont

Is it more stable than a 3DS system update?

afaik most n64 injects on gc homebrew dont save but you have not64/original VC release that plays mario 64 perfectly lol and nay of those games tbh.
