No you don't need vwii, that's what wiivc is for. Yes all games can go on hard drive then and you don't need nintendont. I've only been using this a week and it's brilliant
Are you serious? This is really cool then!!! Can anyone else confirm?

I've managed to get a Kirby game working but I when loading Wii Sports Resort or No More Heroes I get a black screen and I have to unplug my console to turn it off. What could be going on?

@FIX94 Do you know why I can't patch Majora's Mask (NARE) with GetExtTypePatcher?
Patching 00000001.app gives the error 'input is not a dol file'

What I noticed with Wii's N64 VC's (WAD files), when you try to patch the 00000001.app file with GetExtTypePatcher, message will say nothing to patch, I've tried several in the past and always get the nothing to patch message. This just tells me that the N64 WAD's can't be patched to force CC. I did try MM and got the same message as you.
So I guess N64 WAD's are not compatible in GamePad mode.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I just create a game for GC but it dosn't see memory card. Games works well, but I can't save state.

Use the "Nintendont SD Card Menu" option and tick the Memcard Emulation, then save the config file to your SD CARD.

When injecting Wii games, make sure your injecting the same region as your console, if your EUR/PAL region, and you try to inject a USA region Wii game, in most cases it will boot o Black Screen, this is due to the video modes encoded in the game doesn't support PAL video modes. If you don't have access to the same game region as your console, use the Patch Video Mode option in the Advance tab and use the NTSC to PAL or PAL to NTSC.
Past experience, NTSC to PAL seems to work better for PAL region consoles.
In saying that, there are some games that have both region's video modes encoded in the game, that is why some games work and some doesn't.

I've been successful with patching OoT (NACE), so it seems that some N64 WADs are compatible, but not others.

Yes, Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort, also the Wii Sports + Wii Sports Resort bundle, the NTSC to PAL doesn't work, you need the PAL version.

I need some help. I'm to play megaman 9 and 10 using the wiiu gamepad. I made a topic here:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/is-there-a-way-to-play-mega-man-9-and-10-with-the-gamepad.523982/

Someone there said to use this injector script. But I don't understand how it works. I already have the games installed on my vwii. They are legit retail versions that I paid for and downloaded from the wii shop channel. How do I play them using the wii u gamepad.

Do this:

- Launch the script.
- Select vWii NAND Title Launcher.
- Enter the WiiWare Game ID: See below
Title ID:
Mega Man 9: WR9E
Mega Man 10: WRXE
- Click Download images from cucholix's repo to auto download the games Icon and Banner.
- In the GamePad/Meta Options tab, enter the game description.
- Select Classic Controller Emulation.
- Go to the last tab: Build Title, and click the BUILD button.

The files generated will be WUP/USB format, transfer to SD CARD and use your preferred WUP installer to install.

This is JUST a forwarder, you MUST already have the WiiWare game installed in vWii, which you already have.

Launch game from the WiiU Menu, select GamePad mode, after a few moments it will boot into vWii mode and launch your WiiWare game with GamePad support.

Note:
FYI:
you can only inject one game at a time, once you finished with the the first game, repeat for the second game.

Not true. You can inject multiple games at a time, though obviously, you can only build one game at a time using the injector tool.
Once you've built X number of games, you can copy them all to an sd (assuming the sd card can hold them), and install multiple via WUP installer (gx2)

Sorry, after re reading what I wrote, for some it could be a different meaning, what I was trying to say was what you said, using the injector tool you can only BUILD one game at a time.
Thanks for clearing that part up.

Are you able to provide us with the FULL file/folder path of where you have this script located?

Reason why I ask is that for some, the reason they got this message, and other error messages because they had some weird characters in the folder path, keep it nice and simple (no spaces preferred) and not to many sub directories.
Also the local username of your account can also be an issue if you have some characters where this script doesn't like, providing your full path would help us determine if this is the case or not and troubleshoot from there.

ah
Location of the script program on your PC, example:
C:\Users\Owner\Desktop\Inject

Also doesn't hurt to provide the location of the ISO files as well.
ah thank you let me do both
Script: C:\Users\amtzv\Downloads\TeconMoons WiiVC Injector [3,0,1]
ISO: D:\

the ISO is in another drive so that explain why its short

Ok, I think your issue is this part "[3,0,1]", just rename this folder to something simple like "inject". Then try again.

The ISO location should be ok.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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.
  • 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)
