Homebrew Official Retroarch WiiU (wip.)

[Osakasan]

since it might take some days until this is added to the buildbot, this is an rpx build of full fba2012 :

https://buildbot.libretro.com/.aliaspider/fba2012_rpx.7z

this build is only meant to be used from HBL 1.4. it might work with other rpx launching methods but I wouldn't recommend it.

Downloading. I have to try that.

This would run basically every FBA rom, isn it?

I think it works, might want to ask @ploggy for sure

I get a white screen after loading a rom with the new NGP core
I get this error everytime I try to load the FBA RPX.. @aliaspider

you aren't using the latest payload :551hbl.mp4 or codebin.zip from https://github.com/dimok789/homebrew_launcher/releases/tag/1.4

you are probably using loadiine.ovh which is still on a631716 currently. you can check the hash of the latest hbl commit here https://github.com/dimok789/homebrew_launcher/commits/master

Thanks, but this was a bit scary as the error message was a bit like if the Wii U was bricked!
Everything was fine after reboot but I don't feel like trying it again lol.

I updated "Retro Launcher" with the sources of the latest HBL 1.4 release.
@pwsincd You might want to update the file in the wiiubru app store.

Thanks!

Can select and launch the different cores from this one? I don't like having the HBL cluttered with so many cores...

Ahh, thats it!. I'll self host it until loadiine.ovh is updated thanks.
Is there something you can do to make the romlist load faster? atm if i have anything more than 50 files in a folder it takes a while to load the list. It's especially bad for FBA full because of the amount of roms

Thanks Aliaspider!

Just use the lastest 551HBL.mp4 mate and everything will be fine. No need to be afraid.

Hmm, I boot HBL from haxchi (brain age vc) so does that mean I have to wait for that to be updated?

 

[ploggy]

For the time being (until loadiine.ovh is updated) you'll have to selfhost the 511HBL.mp4 file to boot the FBA RPX Core.
I think the haxchi is already updated HBL to 1.4.

not scared to permanently modify files on your system but an error message when loading something through HBL is scary xD?

I think FIX94 already updated the brainage exploit to include the latest HBL payload.

LOL, well the error message reminded me of the screen someone got when they bricked so caught me off guard at first.

Yeah, it was my fault, I hadn't pulled the latest commit for haxchi so everything is working fine now. Shinobi runs great, just the sound is very glitchy but for a first release I'm very happy!

Where goes the cores when using Retro Launcher? (I put the folder core into "sd:/wiiu/retro" but it just show me the HBL background with no cores)

Also when I launch SNES9X only the left stick is usable... O.o

You cant set the left stick in the input options

But I can't access any option since no botton is enabled, or you mean tweak from PC?

Sorry I misunderstood what you wrote does the home button or tapping the screen work?

Only the left stick from the gamepad, tried the pro con but no dice.

yea, the pro controller isnt implemented yet, have you tried deleting the 2 cfg files in the retroarch folder on root?

Oh, I had the retroarch folder from vWii, didn't known it used the same folder, will try.

Yep, that was the problem , thanks!

Now, can help me with Retro-Launcher setup? Please :3

Didn't see your edit

Retro Launcher

it's a quick mod of Dimoks HBL to keep the many RetroArch cores seperate from the other Wii U Homebrews. You launch it fom the HBL and it opens another instance of it, which is listing the RetroArch cores. You have to put the cores to sd:/wiiu/retro/*. To simply go back to the Hbl, just put a copy of the homebrew_launcher in the retro directory.
