Hacking Nintendont Themes and Custom Mods

[TotalInsanity4]

i got one working for super mario sunshine but not the one for mario kart double dash. the only difference i see is the dimension of the png!!! mario kart gives a black screen while loading and mario sunshine shows the correct png image. am i correct why one works and the other not?

If you have an image resolution that isn't 640x480, it will either show incorrectly or boot into a black screen

I updated the dol,
everything worked fine during testing with GX and Wiiflow, only problem was updating nintendont when using CFG loader (boot.dol gets downloaded into wrong location, I'll fix that later)
Fixed all remaining compatibility bugs, all usb loaders should work fine now
Also fixed WiiU Pal bios warning position overlapping with Y/Credits

i think thats what the problem is. ive used both png files you shared. mario kart DD doesnt work (dimensions=1021x574 just black screens). and mario sunshine (684x384) works!
have the dimensions changed somehow when ive downloaded your png? or where they already that size?

 

[jammybudga777]

have you got a collection of these png files for each game? or are you guys looking to make more of them?

currently all games have a png file and almost half of them have a second png file with loading bar,
any suggestion or submission is welcome, I can easily replace or update the current files

325 ready

 

[AbdallahTerro]

update: More code cleanup
please test if everything still works fine and report any bugs

Lol I didn't think anyone was using those. I'll make a new thread for sharing custom game splashes, if you like, since I've fixed the sizes for my own personal use

why make a new thread, the game splashes will only be used via this mod so feel free to share them here.

Also I finished all my testing and it seems all is cool except (NTSC Bios will not load when using CFG loader mod, pal works fine!)
I have no idea why one bios will work while the other not, the code is the same and I can't think of any reason or way to fix this.
When using Wiiflow or GX everything works flawlessly as it should

Updated OP by adding links for GX rev1245 and CFG Loader mod 70.78.8

if you can share that would be kwl if you could add them here plz. i know i would want to use them as im sure other will at some point. (its all the small things that make something big)

The above is a link to all of ID3.png format images I have made/will continue to make. The list will be updated, but by no means on a regular basis. All images are in the correct resolution of 640x480, and are created to be widescreen friendly. As I get better/more practical ideas for splash screens, I will likely use a similar strategy as ABZ uses with his (being that there will be a "Removed" folder to browse older versions (Mario Sunshine will be the first to go, once I get a better idea...))

I am a creative fellow, but by no means a genius, so if you have an idea for a custom game loading screen, or just want to see your favorite game's loading screen out faster, shoot me a PM with your idea and I will try to make it happen

AbdallahTerro, as this is your thread, you are absolutely free to do whatever you want with these screens, be it add them to the OP via link, somehow incorporate them into your mod officially, or simply let this post get buried in this thread. Regardless, it was a pleasure making these, it's a new and fun pastime for me

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I'll add them to OP

AbdallahTerro, is it possible to make vibration on Wii Remote, wii u pro a little bit weak?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Meh

 

[Gomza]

Meh

A have wii remote attached to the back of my wii classic pro controller to have it vibrate with nintendont. But after few minutes of playing my hands get tired because of strong vibration. It never happens while playing ps3 or xbox 360. That's why I asked about this. And get strange answer on a simple question sorry to bother you

 

[jammybudga777]

hhmmm. i dont think i understand your desperation of having it vibrate?lol

I know this is more of a workaround than a solution, but what about detaching the Wii Remote? Or maybe putting a thin piece of foam between the two to act as a shock absorber?

 

[jammybudga777]

or setup to use the wii-mote and nunchuck for gamecube games? but im still unsure if that would vibrate or not

 

[Gomza]

I want a vibration while I playing, but I want it a little WEAK. To detach wii remote is a GENIUS solution, but I want to feel vibration with my hands))) I don't want to hear it vibrate on my sofa. That's it.
P.S. Let's all forget about this))) and AbdallahTerro, no offense. I REALLY appreciate your work))
