Hacking Nintendont

[realromhunter]

if it doesn't work with HIDTest, then we can't help you.
the adapter is not HID compatible.

I think It just need a driver but, thanks anyway.

There's no driver on wii. The driver is the "HID" feature of the controller.

I added links to mayflash on first post too.

You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find V-Rally 3 USA.... rom/real game anything. Not even Ebay haha..... damn

My dreams were crushed today when I attempted to use an xbox controller in the Mayflash 3-in-1 Magic Joy Box adapter. it refuses to do jack when you press buttons in HIDtest. I guess cyan can add (only GameCube and PS/PS2 ports) next to the Mayflash 3-in-1 Magic Joy Box adapter.

Try HIDTest again without any controller.ini and see if the raw data changes

It's the same result. nothing changes. Just 00 repeated 8 or 9 times. Although I did manage to get this error when I was pressing buttons fairly fast after removing my normal controller.ini the first boot but was unable to reproduce it.

InterruptMessage():-7005 failed

Tested with 4 different controllers (3 first party, 1 third party)

 

[realromhunter]

Well driver ... I meant some routines to init controller or devices.

I didn't know you can run N64 games with Nintendont

The emulated Zeldas. Also a few more games like SM64 work when swapped out.

 

[VinsCool]

Anyone knows if gamecube emulators dropped on a iso file with roms would be functionnal in nintendont? I know my question is stupid but I was just wondering

 

[Obnobs]

I've had

I've tried Donkey Konga on my Wii using DK Bongos. At first it's looks like all is fine, two my bongos are detected & working well. But in the middle of a song there is a huge slowdown & desync between sound & video. Also at the same time controllers stop to respond. ISO image is compressed, 32 kb aligned. Can anyone confirm this?

I've had the same problem

Does anyone know why "Zelda Master Quest GameCube" is so damn big?
My rip is over 1gb. I am pretty sure the Roms of the games is like 32-64mb, so where does the extra space come from, except menu etc?

Full 1:1 ISO?
If you want it to be around that file size, you have to shrink it, and that might affect compatibility.

 

[KongsNutz]

Gamecube full dumps will always be 1.35gb because that is how Nintendo did it.
You can use many programs to "Shrink" the ISO so that it is the actual size of just the game data.

For example Animal Crossing is 1.35gb when dumped, when shrunk it is 26mb (Yep, Old N64 DD port = Tiny Size)
Not all games will play nicely when shrunk but it's only a handful of them and you can check the compat list HERE

Evening All,

I got Nintendont installed yesterday and backed up a few games. Everything is set up fine and the program sees my SD card through the software and boots the games, but the HDD it just cannot see. Ive reformatted using 32 and 64kb but still nothing. Shall I presume that it is just one of those awkward drives and use it simply for my Wii backups?

Fat32 and 32k clusters is the right format not 64k

Use Format32 to do this, can even do drives bigger than 2tb HERE is the download.

Nope, it's either extracted or shrunk, it's always like 1.1gb or something.

Checked the files, and one is like 500mb etc, so i just can't get what's in it, as it's not padding.

Just use the Wiiware versions, I do there is no loading and sound is perfect IMO.

 

[faku1810]

I don't see the big deal on having a 1 gb iso if he already has it. If even shrunk it has that size, it just means the game doesn't have useless data to fill it up. Maybe the game is not just a rom stuck in an iso like others.

 

[zerowalker]

Well you shouldn't forget that it has 2 things that wiiware doesn't.

1: Rumble (i find this very important).
2: Be prepared...... It changed the UI to look like a GC controller!!! ;D

I never noticed that last one...... and searching it up I can't see a difference?

 

[zerowalker]

Well it's nothing special anyway, i kinda like it, but not a deal-breaker.
The Rumble thing however is

Hmm i actually searched and didn't find much either.
Even checked my recording. Only difference is the Colors of A and B.

I was sure that the C buttons was changed to Y X Z as well. May have confused that though.
