Hacking Nintendont Themes and Custom Mods

[Mr. Mysterio]

the "b: cancel autoboot" code has to be added to argboot section as well in order to be able to access the settings no matter what method you use to launch your game.
you can look at loader/source/main.c in my patch and see the section that was added

In my opinion, the cancel autoboot option is outdated. It's really easy to delete the autoboot flag, then resave the settings before the game loads so that the next time Nintendont is run, if it's run manually, it just goes straight to settings. If a loader launches it next time, it will re-add the autoboot flag and Nintendont will autoboot.

Actually I am trying to add "Cancel Autoboot" again.
Maybe I will be able to upload a new build today, but I can not promise

I'll PM you instructions soon to show you how to add my feature that you missed. I've already figured out the problem. I'm writing the instructions now.

EDIT: I've just sent you the PM.

this might sound like abit of a silly question but i have been using the latest nintendont mod for a few days i guess its 333. i cant work out it my rechargeable batteries are officially dieing or if nintendont is eating the power? lol ive been using the wii mote and nunchuck. when i charge my controller (at least 80% charged) and play a game after it vibrates a few times the remote turns off ( it does happen sometimes even when i turn vibrate off) is it possible nintendont or wiiflow is somehow consuming more battery power? this is a new thing happening to me since i have update wiiflow to 4.2.3 and nintendont to 333. (i found that the last rev of wiiflow i used would not let me use the second wii mote with anything that wiiflow loaded except wii titles)

some batteries die faster, try another set of batteries..
as for wiimote syncing, try to syng all your wiimotes again in the wii system menu after holding wii/red/sync button for 20 secs

Rechargeable batteries can actually lose their ability to recharge just by sitting on the shelf for several years.

Finally here is Mr. Mysterio's Mod on r334 and working "Prevent-Autoboot-Feature" with the links for the dol and the source
Sorry for waiting time and thanks to Mr. Mysterio again who helped me

Edit: Now it's supporting custom backgrounds.
Just place a background.png in your Nintendont-Folder on your SD-Card and it will load this.
Note: You should use a bright background with the size 640 x 480 pixels for best results.

Maybe you will not be able to use this one, because nintendont is using it's standard black font.
With the next update I will add a way to load the background with different font colors

hahaha, that's nice!
So I'll keep waiting the next revs to use nintendont's looks as close as possible to the original game cube!

[AbdallahTerro]

guys!
why rewrite everything
my mod has tons of backgrounds and also has automatic font color switch

 

[Usuario-X]

Pardon my interruption but... Why you guys Mr.Mysterio, Sendor and AbdallahTerro doesn't join forces and stop releasing eachone a build? Why not integrate all the forces into a single project?

And now that I have you guys attention, lemme ask something totally not related to Nintendont...
GenesisPlusGX, official branch, I'm trying to play some SegaCD isos from usb hdd and from time to time I the music 'hangs' for a second or so... There's anyway to prevent this from happening?
Maybe one of you guys can check the code sorce?

We're trying an "easier" way of color changing, so we don't need to rename the background picture and it's not limited to the colors that are defined in code

tbh, the only feature that the other mod have, namely, less loading time comes at the expense of bios interactivity and overall stability, let alone the huge dol size
my source patch is out there (in OP) for anyone to add/edit/improve
