Hacking [TUTORIAL] Compiling a vWii compatible version of SNEEK (restored from @JoostinOnline)

[Visualwit]

yeah, i used a sandisk cruzer glide and it stays on a black screen upon exiting a channel, using sandisk extreme pro, it works.

 

[godreborn]

then it may be the device. I'm using a powered hdd, and most of the same files from the wii's hdd, which is why I left the name. the only differences really that I can think of are the sneek files and both emunands. Cyan told me that the main sneek file can be called kernel.bin or vwiikernel.bin iirc on the vwii, at least with usb loader gx. I don't know about wiiflow as I've never used it.

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

I think I have all the files you need for both wii and vwii:

the fontr.bin is the red font (have to rename it to font.bin when on the hdd), but a friend of mine who's a tester for neek gave it to me.

@Visualwit @godreborn Maybe you should ask to the original poster of this original thread, i didn't write that originally...

@JoostinOnline, are you there?

 

[godreborn]

I don't need any help. neek2o works perfectly for me.

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

I even have a different version, which I haven't tested:

I Was Using UNEEK+DI And I'm Now Gonna Try Using SNEEK+DI. But The Only Issue Is That The Homebrew Apps Do Not Show Up Even When I Have Them On A USB And Using Homebrew Filter.

 

[Cyan]

I didn't read every posts yet, but I want to say something :
Neek and Neek2o are TWO different things !

Neek + DI works differently than Neek2o+DI !


If you build vWii Neek from the tuto on the first post, then this is the original Neek.
Neek + Di will not work if you don't have at least ONE extracted game.
not an ISO, not a wbfs, but an extracted discEx format.

Well, that's all I wanted to say

 

[Visualwit]

I'll Try DiscEX

 

[Visualwit]

UNEEK+DI Boot Fine But When I Try To Boot Up SNEEK+DI It's Suck On The Black Screen, I'm Booting Using USB Loader GX.

 

[Cyan]

like I said, +di requires at least ONE discEx'd game on USB, or it won't boot.
so, you need it in the proper format, in proper folder's name.

Di (disc interface) is only useful to play disc based games which are not working with USBLoaders (tintin for example).
if you want to play a non problematic game, don't bother to use neek, or try to use di just for the fun to have all that exists, just use an usbloader on sysNAND.

 

[Visualwit]

I Put The DiscEX Games In The Games Folder In Both My USB And SD Card But It Still Stays On A Black Screen When Booting From My SD Card.

 

[Visualwit]

Oh Yeah, I Did SNEEK+DI On My SD Card Last Night And It Worked, And I THINK My Games Were Showing Up, Hmm.

AND, I Am Using UNEEK+DI On My REAL Wii And All Is Working Well, Except For Cheat Codes, How Can I Use Cheat Codes On UNEEK+DI Anyway?

 

[Visualwit]

I Tried More SD Cards But Still Have The Black Screen Issue.

Why do you put uppercase on each word ?

To use cheats, you need the kenobiwii.bin file in your sneek folder, but then ... that's as far as my knowledge goes. I never used cheats in sneek.
Maybe someone else can help you here.

I suppose you need the kenobiwii.bin and a cheat file copied somewhere on your device(s), then activate an option in neek hidden menu to use the cheat file.

 

[Visualwit]

Cheats Work Now, But I Still Want Help With My Wii U

 

[Visualwit]

I Used Sneek On My SD Card Without DI And It Works, But How Can I Get DI To Work? It Stuck On "Waiting For ARM To Reset PPC" When I Use DI And Using USB Loader GX It Hangs On A Black Screen.

 

[godreborn]

I think I may be using di on the vwii, because I have the di.bin in the sneek folder. I have no issues with neek2o at least. if it's different, I'm not sure what could be the problem on your end.

 

[Visualwit]

UPDATE: I Copied Everything To A UNEEK+DI HDD That Works On My Real Wii And It Actually Found A Game! But It Crashes When It Tries To Mount It... I Still NEED Help!

 

[Visualwit]

UPDATE 2: I Found Out That vWii Was Crashing Because I Was Using The Wrong di.bin From My Real Wii System, Replaced It With The vWii Version And Now, No Games Again.

Maybe You Can Give Me A Known Working di.bin Or Other SNEEK Files For vWii?

 

[chrisrlink]

the svn is dead for sneek-read-only anyone has a copy of that repo?

 

[mive]

https://github.com/eluancm/sneek

you can also use "svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/sneek/code/trunk sneek-code" instead
