PS1/2 Emulator WiiStation - Another Fork of WiiSXRX released

[GustavoReis]

Hi, using force NTSC option on PAL games results in image too shifted down and perhaps a bit zoomed in too. First pic is auto option, second one is force NTSC. I tested two games (Bugs bunny & taz time busters and Carmageddon) and the issue is identical. I routinely run NTSC games with this setup (actually I MOSTLY run NTSC games) so I know it's not a TV or cable issue.

For reference:

latest wiistation https://gbatemp.net/threads/wiistation-another-fork-of-wiisxrx-released.614405/post-10330320
CRT 4:3 TV
PAL Wii U set to 480i
RGB scart cable
games are in bin/cue format

I have another Wii U connected to a 4k tv via HDMI, will test it on that one too to see if it happens there as well.

This is a bug that has not yet been fixed

@Joseito said that his USB wasnt FAT32.

Most homebrew apps dont support other USB formats (exFAT, NTFS). You could need to format the USB to FAT32 using tools like FAT32 GUI Formatter (idk what is the name).

im pretty sure its downloadable in @XFlak's ModMii: http://modmii.github.io

 

[Joseito]

Thanks Saulfabre ,i did just that formatted it to fat 32 and that was it, and to sander, idk why is the problem with people on the wii and flash drives, i guess theyre not all compatible,but i have 6 and all work

Hey guys!
I have been having an amazing time realizing most PSX games run now with WiiStation, the LightRec is a work of art, and all the other options (240p works great with my CRT, for example) are also amazing!

Thank you VERY MUCH to all involved!

Now, I have a small question:

I downloaded the Rhapsodii Shima SD pack for WFL when I got my CRT this month.
At the time I also updated my PlugIns with the updated 2023 (the latest) packs
Because of this I can launch WiiStation (with LightRec) from WiiFlowLight through Rhapsodii Shima SD.

BUUUUUT when I went to HomeBrewChannel and opened HomeBrew Browser (The Repository of PlugIns to download directly to the Wii) I found WiiStation did not appeared as if I had I already, or as if I needed to update, it simply offered me to Download as if it was the first time.. as if I did not have it already...

I tried to check which version I have through HomeBrewChannel (My WiiStation does appear locally) but I could not find a Version History for traceability.

So I am left wondering... what about the version at HomeBrew Browser?
Will we be able to update there at some point?
Should we stick with updating WiiStation with files provided in this thread?

Should I wait until the next PlugIns Megapack?

I would love to keep up with current advances of WiiStation and do not mind copying files manually, I just do not want to mess my installation... reason why I did not click on "Download" from the HomeBrew Browser app.

Thank you for your time guys!

Much Love and Respect!

I'm working right now for backport some latest changes made by the brilliant user notaz from his PCSX-ReARMed to WiiStation.
I'll build a new dol file shortly.

The location for homebrew, where HBC and presumably that browser looks, is Drive:\apps\
The location for Wiiflow plugins, where Wiiflow looks, is Drive:\wiiflow\plugins

It sounds like the browser you're using is looking in \apps and not finding Wiistation, because the Wiistation you're using is in the wiiflow folder. It is likely the next plugins pack will have an updated version of the Wiistation plugin.

If you want to update it yourself, just replace the previously installed wiistation .dol file (that's the executable) with the new one, in the same place, renamed to have the same filename, as it is now in Drive:\wiiflow\plugins. Be sure to make a backup of your current (probably SD card) files first.
