Hacking WiiU Virtual Console finally fixed! [No More dark filter, and widescreen support!]

[ShadowOne333]

Dark screen = less chance of epilepsy from flashing lights?

But some games have intentionally been modified to remove or reduce flashing effects for epilepsy.

View attachment 143159

Now it's just them being lazy to do on a case by case basis.

Some, but no all.
If you notice, the games which ended up having those changes to the ROM tend to be first party games, perhaps they didn't have a say or couldn't touch other games from 2nd/3rd party, which is why they went with the dark filter.

Don't forget that they were also released on the Wii VC, which only has a dark filter for NES games, IIRC.

 

[the_randomizer]

So the real reason WIi U VC games are dark is because Nintendo did it intentionally for some unknown reason, and not because of some misguided attempt at "CRT emulation".

For reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/wiiu/comments/40pxwp/the_reason_virtual_console_is_dark_and_blurry/ - claims that it's dark because of interlacing artifacts, and the reason why the same games on Wii VC weren't dark is because Wii U is more "powerful" and therefore can make it "more accurate". (Except it isn't. If you've ever used a real CRT, you'd know that it doesn't produce ridiculously dark images.)

Is there any explanation for the piss poor point-sampling audio interpolation used in DK64, when the game on real hardware didn't sound nearly as tinny/distorted? I can see the dark filters to reducing epilepsy, but why wasn't it used on the Wii? Sad that only 20 N64 games or so were ever released on both consoles. That was my understanding anyway, but that said, with the removal of said filter, the games actually look more normal.

Since community knows how to disable dark filter on N64 games, can it be done too with the NES and SNES games too (or just any other game consoles that need it on the WII wads or vWII wup files on the VC)? Thanks in advance.

AFAIK, Snes games weren't darkened, but can be stretched to fill the screen. Unfortunately, that requires one to decompile the RPX into an ELF file, used with IDA pro hex editing, and recompiled with the ELF to RPX converter. That requires the Wii U SDK, and it's a pain. I wrote a thread quite a while ago on that.

 

[George miller]

Oh I see, so only NES games have the issue, understood, wish someday something can be done about that.

Here's hoping the NES emulator on Switch is better, it should be seeing as NERD (the devs who developed the one for the NES Classic), less dark and more vibrant. AFAIK, the dark filter was to reduce epileptic issues.

The "problem" with the dark filter is only on the N64 and NES? DS and GBA suffer from the same problem? I am looking for answers but the general criticism is on the N64

No, NERD and M2 wrote the DS and GBA emulators respectively, and are superior in terms of accuracy.

Don't know about the DS, but the GBA games are sadly dark filtered to oblivion. Which is a shame because it would be the perfect way to play GBA if it wasn't for this bullsh*t.

Sure beats having GBA games having the colors too bright, which look like garbage.

I agree.
Unlike the NES, SNES and N64 VC releases, the GBA DOES benefit from the dark filter.
A lot of games from the GBA library were victims to the awful unlit screen of the original GBA model, so having the dark filter into them does help with keeping the oversaturation that plagues the GBA library to a minimum and more eye-friendly.

It's the only console were having a dark filter is excused.

 

[Fgamer]

Pretty sure this has been discussed even in this thread but DS games are set to 80% brightness by default, they can be restored to to 100% in the configuration_cafe.json

Let's stick to N64 discussion here. I'm still trying to find a way to apply the widescreen codes we don't have ready-made patches for.

I tried implementing the Doom 64 one, which is a simple two byte change in one address only, but I couldn't get it to work with the [Cheat] argument inside the ini.

The one I'm talking about is this one:

Doom 64 (1.0) NTSC-U:
810A68E2 C71C
Vert-

I tried doing this in the ini:

[Cheat]
; Basically action replay type editing, to disable additional copy protection etc
Cheat0 = 1
Cheat0_Addr = 0x810A68E2
Cheat0_Value = 0xC71C
Cheat0_Bytes = 2

But I couldn't make it work.
If someone can try it out with perhaps several ROMs of Doom 64, let me know, and try playing around with the values of Cheat0, perhaps that has something to do as well.

Here are a ton more which someone sent to me some time back:

I agree.
Unlike the NES, SNES and N64 VC releases, the GBA DOES benefit from the dark filter.
A lot of games from the GBA library were victims to the awful unlit screen of the original GBA model, so having the dark filter into them does help with keeping the oversaturation that plagues the GBA library to a minimum and more eye-friendly.

It's the only console were having a dark filter is excused.

I beg to differ.

I tried implementing the Doom 64 one, which is a simple two byte change in one address only, but I couldn't get it to work with the [Cheat] argument inside the ini.

The one I'm talking about is this one:

Doom 64 (1.0) NTSC-U:
810A68E2 C71C
Vert-

I tried doing this in the ini:

[Cheat]
; Basically action replay type editing, to disable additional copy protection etc
Cheat0 = 1
Cheat0_Addr = 0x810A68E2
Cheat0_Value = 0xC71C
Cheat0_Bytes = 2

But I couldn't make it work.
If someone can try it out with perhaps several ROMs of Doom 64, let me know, and try playing around with the values of Cheat0, perhaps that has something to do as well.

Here are a ton more which someone sent to me some time back:

Yes those codes are the ones created by Gamemasterplc and from the pj64 forum, the ready-made patches do work so no doubt all these codes work.

I don't think you have the Cheat0_Value right (but I don't know how we get the correct one) if you take a look at this screenshot comparing original cheat codes and how they are entered in the official ini for Paper Mario: https://gbatemp.net/attachments/untitled-1-jpg.50712/

Cheat0_Value = 0xc71c?
That's perhaps the problematic line.
If we know how to put the proper value, we could make cheat codes for all games we want to in the N64 VC.

I don't actually know how the cheat code is used in Paper Mario so maybe your value for Doom should work. The other option is to convert the codes to patches but I have no idea where to begin with that.

Well if someone can try it out, be my guest.
I won't be able to test anything Wii U related these days, so I can't make the test myself right now

I tried a widescreen patch for Mario Party 3 but unfortunately it has some shuddering problems (but for the parts that work it's beautiful T_T). The patch I tried was from this video:
