Hacking Nintendont Themes and Custom Mods

[ShadowOne333]

Abdallah, doesn't all the Triforce games now have save feature working?
In what I read from your post in http://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendont-themes-and-custom-mods.374469/page-46#post-5322636,
you say that you simply wrote a code that disabled MC Emu if the loader detects a Triforce game... right?
Couldn't you simply change it so that it switches to MC Emu ON but with Multi OFF for ONLy those games?

The ironic thing about the CARD support for Triforce games is that it actually requires MCEmu to be off for it to work correctly (it uses .bin files as opposed to .raw files if I recall correctly). Confusing? Yes. Functional? Very.

Edit: Sorry, I thought MCEmu=On broke saving, so I never tried it personally. The above was written based on information I saw in the "Nintendont" thread

mcemu is not needed for triforce save to work anymore, if you have mcemu "on" you get a useless raw file in addition to the true save bin file

kinda 'ed but yeah I have mcemu off for all those games now

Wow, I didn't expect that.
So basically the Triforce games DO save but only when you have MC Emu off. That's odd.

So that means the security check you implemented in your MOD now makes Multi saves and Triforce saves play along nicely without modifying the MC Emu/Multi settings, am I right?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

the triforce save should work regardless of mcemu setting, the security I added is just to make sure it doesn't created the unneeded raw file or mess with the multi file

Great! Thanks for the update and the work on this mod

AbdallahTerro do you have r275 master mod? With black background.
It was the last nintendont rev that worked for PSOI+II

Thanks!

How do i set Nintendont to be the global GC loader in cfg usb taiwan mod ?
And how do i change my emunand path? because the path in the config.txt won't work with taiwan mod

Use black screen option then update nintendont to the stable version (not latest)

there's a per game setting for GC loader, not sure if it's in global settings too!
taiwan mod has a built in default path for emunand (not using the one in config.txt)
there's no support for that mod so you have to figure it out yourself or ask Airline

On stable can you choose whatever rev?

no it's 275 for now

Currently working on something that will make nintendont themes easier to make,
The main issue was lack of space, long menus getting close to the edge,
so I moved the headers menus up and shortened the menus by removing "return to update" and adding button info on top

I'll upload the new dol after testing more themes:

screenies:

 

[AbdallahTerro]

everything seems to be fine
uploaded the new dol...

here's a png with new margins for those who want to make new nintendont themes

 

[AbdallahTerro]

also moved top right button info 2 spaces to right to make it more symetrical
updated the dol & patch

 

[AbdallahTerro]

292 is ready

stable, downloads r277, not r275
Do you have r275?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I guess yeah, I'll find it and add it to stable

I've added 275 to "stable" can you check it out now please

 

[OriginalHamster]

I've added 275 to "stable" can you check it out now please

It still downloads r277 under "stable"
I select "update" > "stable"
When I check the rev it shows r277
