[DacoTaco]

Priiloader got an update a few months ago from DacoTaco, so go ask him I guess.

and guess what happened. somebody fudging finally did and i updated the source code. go build and try it out, it should work. (if not, bother me somewhere outside of this forum cause its not like i'll come back here xD)

Thanks @DacoTaco, so would this be v0.8.2? Also is there anywhere I can download a precompiled build?

Alternatively @FIX94 might it be possible to get an additional build of the HBC v1.1.3 with the old LULZ title ID? Just so that it can be used with the old versions of Priiloader, and so that it will directly replace the old HBC v1.1.2.

According to Marcan:-

If you want to change the title ID, you need to change tmd.template, cetk.template, and config.h.

For the people who can boot channels using patched wii vc titles, I just added libwiidrc to the hbc and gamepad controls seem to work just fine in it.
https://github.com/FIX94/hbc/releases
Note that of course, any app you start from it also needs to have support for that or else its rather useless.
You can just install it on vwii as normal and boot it using my wii vc channel booter.
Also when used from wii vc, note that after you started an app and you then exit from it, it will reboot to the wiiu menu rather than the HBC simply because of how wii vc works.

Trying to boot this from vWii mode consistently dumps code all over my GamePad.

and the normal version works? if so, I guess you have to pack up your entire "apps" folder and send it over to me because I have that wad installed on my wii, vwii and wii vc and it doesnt crash on any of them. also do you maybe use a theme or something? if so I probably need access to that too.

 

[FIX94]

Just pushed up a new version to my fork.
https://github.com/FIX94/hbc/releases/
-added code based on TinyLoad to stub that allows wii vc to return to HBC when wii vc channel booter was used to initially get into HBC
-pushed OHBC version to 1.1.4
Also, I recompiled everything using clean libraries so maybe whatever issue you had @N7Kopper is gone with this, anyways I did not have any issues with this file yet myself just like with the last one I uploaded.

Nope. Still there. I even tried without the theme, so it has to be a problem with my apps. I considered listing them, but uploading them might work better, in case I have any weirdo stuff. (Other than the things that need updating, ignore those, I'm busy)

so by just cutting the apps in half on each try until I found the crashing one, turns out the meta.xml file of "SNES9XGX MOD" crashes it, at the very end of it is a null-character (0x00 byte) which for some reason causes it to crash inside one of the libraries on load, I do not know as to why this would happen, it must've been some library or devkit update, if you remove that null-character at the very end and save it, it works just fine again.

Thanks @DacoTaco, so would this be v0.8.2? Also is there anywhere I can download a precompiled build?

Tried to build one, but no luck (GitVersion.exe: Bad file number error). Hope @DacoTaco or someone else gets lucky and shares a new build.

Second that request. Or maybe somebody else to build a version with the old title ID?

you dont have git installed im guessing?
the source comes with gitversion which helps retrieve the source version, without git it might not work (never tried it without installing git. i just included the exe and dll but i dont think that works apparently)
that, or reinstalling git also seems to fix the issue in git sometimes

EDIT : that is ofc, considering you downloaded source using git, and not the zip archive trough github

Correct, i'm not using git, only the zipped source from github and good 'ole devkitpro for compiling.

ye, im guessing thats why. i dont have a machine without git/github installed but i suggest installing the github tool. easy to use and installs git. should make it work

I just dusted off my old laptop (it was literally covered in dust) with all the SysCheck HDE code, released and unreleased. Can someone run this to see if it detects the Open HBC? I don't have my Wii or Wii U set up since I moved.

• refuse installation on WiiU(vWii)

(using a dirty check from Joostin)

LMFAO, thanks for the credit!

Using this OHBC version. So far, so good. Will it be compatible with Wii U Pro Controller too in the future?

Thanks, really appreciate it.

Adding support for the Pro controller would be pretty easy. FIX94 wrote a great library for it (although I apparently made a bunch of small changes to it). It's literally been years since I've coded, and I'm self-taught, so while juggling work and school I'll have a hard time working everything in.

 

[monta990]

The new title ID is OHBC

 

[r4dius]

Hi guys, sorry to revive this but i wanted to install the ohbc on my vwii and it won't install for some reason, I'm using multi mod manager and I get a did not complete message when trying to install the wad, can anyone help ?
Is this because I already have the original homebrew or something ?

 

[Brawl345]

multi mod manager

MMM is really old, use Some-YAWMM-Mod by FIX94: https://github.com/FIX94/Some-YAWMM-Mod/releases
