Hacking cIOSX rev21d2x: Yet Another Hot Fix!!!!

[leseratte]

"The" repository? I am commiting the cIOS stuff in my fork (https://github.com/Leseratte10/d2xl-cios) and the devkitARM build stuff in a helper repository (https://github.com/Leseratte10/compile-devkitARM-r32). Or did you mean to ask if I planned to merge my changes into the original d2x repository? It'd probably be easier not to, and to keep developing in my fork repository, assuming davebaol isn't planning to make any update to the d2x cIOS himself (which I doubt, after 5 years without any update).

 

[leseratte]

I just created an own thread for further discussions about my d2xl cIOS fork: https://gbatemp.net/threads/d2xl-cios-a-fork-of-davebaols-d2x-cios.558581/

 

[TeenTin]

it's already fixed. in fact, it's the contrary, it's broken on r53!

just stop using beta version, and use d2x v10 r52 instead of r53
don't follow bad softmod guides written by people who think last = better
install either d2x v8 final (if you are on Wii) or d2x v10 (not the alternative beta version) if you are on vWii and kirby will work from SD.

I am very happy to see your message and know that Kirby's Return to Dream Land works from SD.

However, no matter how hard I tried, I cannot make the game work from SD. The game does start, but when I choose an empty slot to create a new save, I get a black screen and the game freeze.

Here is my spec :
Wii
WiiFlow Lite
cIOS d2x v8 final (base 57)

Would you please help ? Thank you very much indeed !

Make sure no patches are applied by your USB loader for this game, no video mode patches or 480p fixes or anything

Also make sure emunand gamesaves are turned off in main settings> nand emulation settings. Its a known issue that games and emunand game saves both on SD do not work.

Did that. No difference. Thanks for your reply.

Did that. No difference. Thank you very much for your reply indeed.

I found that when I use a USB Harddrive to run the game, it runs fine; so that I can create a gamesave from an empty slot and play the game without problem. Then, I turned back to SD and opened the gamesave (just created by using harddrive), I can play the game without problem. However, when I tried to create a new gamesave from an empty slot, I still got a black screen.

 

[RunningSnakes]

I confirm this game not working on SD without a prior game save. I tested and experience identical results as @TeenTin.

d2x-v10-b52-Stealth-RC24 Released!

"d2x-v10-b52-Stealth-RC24" for Wii
aka "d2x-v10-b52-ST-RC24-vWii" for vWii

Changelog:

• Same as v10 beta52 except added RiiConnect24 RSA Key and updated FAT module to add Emunand support for drives hidden by UStealth, source and more info here

source: https://github.com/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/tag/d2x-v10-b52-Stealth-RC24

Install it like usual using ModMii or the wii d2x cIOS installer as per the directions from here

Unofficial release notes:
This has not been heavily tested, but the changes are extremely minimal and I am very confident there is no downside to using this compared to v10 beta 52. That being said there is no need to update from v10 beta52 (or v8-final for that matter) unless you want to:

1) hide your drive using uStealth AND want to restore emunand functionality (i.e. like storing gamesaves on emunand)
2) use RC24 AND have the Priiloader hack enabled to use cios249 for the Systemmenu/disc channel (otherwise it breaks some RiiConnect24 features)
3) STILL NEED TO CONFIRM: use RC24 AND launch RC24 channels via usb-loaders instead of the main system menu (usb-loader updates may also be required in order for RC24 patched channels to connect when launched via a usb-loader)

After people test this, and assuming no-one reports any problems relative to v10 beta 52, I think I will release this as v10-final and we can finally stop referring to v10 beta52 all the time. So in essence this is really a v10 final release candidate.

I wish davebaol were still around, but it seems I'm the last OG standing able to push updates to davebaol's official d2x github so I guess ultimately it's up to me whether or not to brand this as v10-final (I need to be careful not to get drunk with power, lol). If anyone thinks this should not become v10-final (or v11?) please share your rationale and your voice will be heard and considered.

Thanks everyone!

P.S. Keep your eyes peeled for a big ModMii update! Probably sometime before the end of summer, but no promises!

Edit: DO NOT USE ON WII MINI!!!!

3) use RC24 AND launch RC24 channels via usb-loaders instead of the main system menu (usb-loader updates may also be required in order for RC24 patched channels to connect when launched via a usb-loader)

I thought until now all the patching for RiiConnect24 was only because of Nintendo's RSA key. Does that mean you no longer need the patcher when the weather and news channel are started via the emunand? Or maybe even the original ones via the system menu? I am confused.

It attempts to fix a problem where loaders receive error 107031 when the channels are launched with a cIOS. But XFlak might of jumped the gun with a public release since this doesn't seem to fix the problem.

 

[XFlak]

Worst case, adding the RC24 RSA Key to the cIOS will change nothing. However I think it should, at a minimum, solve for this issue, although I have not confirmed it (yet). Essentially "this issue" is when someone has RC24 working already using the standard procedure, then they change their priiloader settings so the system menu uses IOS249, some RC24 functions would break UNLESS your cIOS has the RC24 RSA key.

@Alexander1970 or anyone else with RC24 working, can you test installing this , then adjusting Priiloader's options to use the new cIOS as the system menu IOS, and then check if RC24 stuff still works? (edit: maybe first confirm how exactly it's broken with the standard d2x v10 beta 52 cios)

You might be right in that the below statement might not be true. But that being said, having the RC24 key shouldn't hurt anything so worst case it's still mostly equivalent\superior to d2x v10 beta52

3) use RC24 AND launch RC24 channels via usb-loaders instead of the main system menu (usb-loader updates may also be required in order for RC24 patched channels to connect when launched via a usb-loader)

edit:
also don't forget this is still a "beta" and not an official release so I don't think I jumped the gun, now that it's out there we can test it properly and take it from there

 

[ukigh4ie]

@XFlak
I guess sysCheck(HD) has to be updated to recognize the new d2x-v10-final?

No, syscheck will report the cIOS how it is tagged without needing to be updated

USBLoader GX (Beta 12) works.

Amazing! Thanks so much! Out of curiosity can you confirm that this stuff didn't already work with the normal d2x v10 beta52? It absolutely should not work (except for mail, which I think works even without the RC24 RSA key), but I just want to confirm that adding the RC24 Key actually accomplished something, thx again!

I hope I understand you correct:
You have asked,that RC24 is working with d2x v10 beta52 ?

If it is so,I have to say YES.
As you maybe have noticed with the sysCheck,I HAD it installed previously.

RC24 & Mail is/was working with that cIOS.

 

[blackb0x]

USBLoader GX (Beta 12) works.

It will work with the beta version due to the workaround I added. But if you use the stable version or WiiFlow you'll receive error 107031.

You must use the RiiConnect24 clear tool before you attempt to launch a channel via a loader though. Otherwise it'll load in cached data, so you'll think that the channel is working when it actually isn't.

Thank you.

I never load the RC24 Channels through a Loader,always from the Wii System Menu.

For the USBLoader GX is working,I meant:
With the new cIOS in 249 it is still detecting my HDD´s.
Sorry for this misunderstanding.
