​

WiiCompiled is a new project that lets PC gamers play Mario Kart Wii natively on PC without emulation. Using static recompliation to convert the code into native PC code, this method allows the game to run at higher resolutions with native widescreen/ultrawide support, uncapped frame rates and more...

The beta release also supports online multiplayer as well as Retro Rewind (a popular Mario Kart Wii mod) which offers hundreds of brand new tracks to play. Native PC controller support is also included and an in-game settings provides advanced customisation and controller options.

Please note that WiiCompiled does not include any Nintendo game files or assets and players will need to provide their own copy of Mario Kart Wii in order to get set up and play and the project is still in active development.

There's a difference between vibecoding and AI assistance though?

Yes, AI was used for some code / assistance, but that doesn't mean its entirely vibecoded. Other parts of the code were made by developers.

Vibecoded would mean almost 100% of the code is AI written. I heavily doubt that is the case.

I want to believe your comment was sarcastic, otherwise you have serious problems, dude!

I am being serious?

There is a genuine difference between vibe coding with AI and just using it for assistance with a project (which is the case here, AI being used for assistance)

Vibe coding is where almost 100% of the code in a project was made with AI.

AI for assistance (this case) is not 100% AI code. It has both developer code and AI code.

Also, AI probably wouldn’t be able to do a static recompilation project alone vibecoding. It’s very advanced. Most it can do is assist with the project

I agree with those above. If you don't know what you're doing and create code that you don't know what it does, do not release that or pretend it's safe.

If you do not have the time or opportunity to do a big community project, do not do a big community project. Simple as.

Claude, begin porting GTA 6 to PS3. Make no mistakes.

Digging through 3 different youtube videos and I saw one person mention a virus, without sources

If you have sources, feel free to share them

I love misinformation because AI made this. Anti-AI people are gonna dickride that rumor like hell.

VirusTotal gives only 1 flag (BKav). I'm trying this in a sandbox.

First result when looking for BKav

Well said. It's sad to see this website of all places pushing aislop to the front page.

This is a forum meant for human work, not AI Slop. If you can't code then just say that.

Ironically, saying stuff like this is an easy tell that you're not a coder, nor are you familiar with the field outside of social media.

The issue you linked has nothing to do with the software containing malware and is related to a vulnerability in the way that the online is handled. It's not good because it could be used to deploy malware in a scenario where the server is spoofed or MITM'd, so they should fix it, but it doesn't indicate the software is malware. I'm not sure where your screenshots came from but they didn't come from the issue you linked. The last screenshot also just looks like an error.

I want to believe your comment was sarcastic, otherwise you have serious problems, dude!

A JetBrains poll among 15000 developers worldwide found that 90% of professional developers use AI coding agents at work weekly or more. 68% said they use AI coding agents daily.

A StackOverflow poll among 1100 developers says that 59% of them use AI coding agents in any capacity, which is lower but still the majority.

Are you going to tell all these people that they have serious problems? Regardless of the argument behind it, your no compromise attitude towards AI assisted coding is simply removed from reality, whether you like it or not.

 

[lincruste]

AI or not isn't the issue honestly, the real problem is when people DON'T understand what they compile and publish, and also when "vibe coders" hide they used AI.

I understand why someone would use AI to accelerate or even learn while developping something, and I also understand programmers who take pride in creating old school 100% human code.

It's not a matter to me, however I didn't like this specific software, I find it complicated and unfriendly to use compared to regular projects like Ship of Harkinian, Perfect Dar, etc... Having to use "Wheel Wizard" which I didn't know and is not even clear what's it intended to do is a dead end for me.

It's just no worth the hassle compared to emulating it with Dolphin.

Never once claimed I am a coder. I'm just an enjoyer of human work.

You're god damn right I am!

I'm beginning to think you also have no idea how to code and are just pro-AI for the love of the game

Then create your own forum and act like an entitled bitch there, if there are a lot of this projects with AI assist on this site its because its allowed, are not going to be removed just because of you

 

[MeowthBlep]

Oh right, it's the vibe coded one. Screw this.

oh. that (and it being PAL only) means im just gonna use dolphin instead

Plus, you'll get the standard bundle of artifacts that come with interpolation.

This is not referring to frame generation. The in-game motion is interpolated at the source.

It is equivalent to running a game at 144 Hz and only polling inputs every 60 Hz.

What? My simple point was that the majority of developers use AI powered coding assistants in some capacity and the numbers are going up consistently. Saying that any AI assistance at all makes a project "slop" might get you karma on reddit, but it's simply removed from the reality you live in in 2026.

 

[bonkmaykr]

Regarding the AI shit, have my 2 cents.

If you don't know what you are doing, don't write networked software in a native programming language without help or the correct tools and research first. You will miss bugs and those bugs will hurt people. You are not ready for that kind of responsibility unless you have a manual debugger you're comfortable with, a UB sanitizer, and some hardware-level common sense. Alternatively, any code you write that interacts with untrustworthy sources should be put in a sandbox, which would reduce the attack surface and thus the inputs needing to be sanitized.

Having said that, I really don't care if AI was used, as long as it was used in moderation by people who already have engineering experience and were comfortable developing without it. I have serious doubts that a Bullshit Generator is capable of pulling off something like this with minimal expert input anyhow. I'm not paying for it either.

An RCE being able to cause major damage in the year 2026 honestly should not even be up for consideration if our OS permissions models weren't stuck in the Unix mainframe era. All those MMUs and filesystem flags don't mean shit if you don't sandbox anything. This isn't a problem on cell phones. Collectively, developers need to find a frictionless way to solve this, otherwise cases like this will just continue to be a problem. Maybe normalizing not having tons of web passwords saved in plaintext is a good start.

I want to believe your comment was sarcastic, otherwise you have serious problems, dude!

This is a forum meant for human work, not AI Slop. If you can't code then just say that. No one deserves praise for typing in prompts. Gtfo

And I have a pretty good hunch that the loaded anti-AI seething from you two is fueled not by engineering concerns, but by dogma.

Yes, there IS a grey area. There IS a difference between AI assistance and reckless automation. Doesn't take a fucking genius to see that.

 

[DuoForce]

Once again, if you do not know how to code, then DON'T! Would you go to a restaurant where the food is genetically grown with no chefs in sight?
