And hopefully we'd find a new way to send Full ROMSets files to Wii U filesystem, so that we no longer will need SD card.

My rom sets are already on an external drive. It's Fat32 though.

Hi Guys, been out of the loop lately. Are scanlines a possible as of now?
To All devs following this thread, thank you so so much!
No, not yet.

Yea, I can see this is going to be a big ask but come on WiiU cant go down in history as the only Console not to have a Mediaplayer :P
I think I remember @QuarkTheAwesome said he would take a crack at a Mediaplayer a long time ago ;) I dunno if its still on his todo list though?

I actually compiled up ffmpeg and gave it a go, but lo and behold, it crashed. I suppose I could take another go at it, but lately I've been finding I can only hold one project at a time (which is why that touch driver is taking so long) and I've already committed to quite a few things. If you guys are really desperate, I guess I could repurpose some... previously used graphics code; but I'd only be writing a decoder for something simple (Uncompressed AVI for example; maybe Motion JPEG).

I cannot see a button for searching the thread in this latest GBAtemp skin so I'll just ask... are scanlines implemented yet?

LOL I guess no from the comments 2 above this. Delete me!

If you can look into it again that would be awesome. Alot of people would like to be able to watch some Movie goodness on WiiU :P Whatever you can do is better than the Mediaplayer we don't have now ;)

Just tested the achievements here with Animaniacs (Snes) and Contra (Nes)
Animaniacs I was able to win the achievements, Contra it's detects I am playing but I don't get any achievement, even after i follow what it needs.

Are you using FCEUMM? If not and you are using nestopia that might be why..... it doesn't have achievements working.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
