    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    OK, the sector size needs to be 32kb or less, to check this make a text file, add 1 character and save it and then right click it and hit properties. Size on disk should say 32KB or less. You can re-install DM, download it here (the top link).

    Is your USB drive in the right format? FAT32 with 32kb or less sector size?

    Hacking Why add anti-piracy measures to Devolution ?

    It's wrong because 'could not care less' is an English idiom, that originated in England, and 'could care less' is an incorrect version of the idiom found only in the USA. In England, Australia, etc, we use the original idiom either 'could not' or 'couldn't' care less, and we would never say...

    Hacking Why add anti-piracy measures to Devolution ?

    Ok I stand technically corrected, but as the format isn't DVI it's useless as digital out - it's in a format that is intended to generate YPbPr and other "child" analogue formats. And it still doesn't negate my point that all PAL GC games only have the options of 480i and 576i, none have the...

    Hacking Why add anti-piracy measures to Devolution ?

    That's not exactly right. Nintendo has always led the way in terms of "encryption", or, "anti piracy". The major flaw in the security of the GC is the fact that Matsushita simply modified a stock-standard DVD drive to work with the CG disc (or as I prefer to say, matsushita patented disc - MPD)...

    Hacking wii help

    Okay, 1. I suggest you keep the discussions here, in your thread, as other members may be able to help you, other people who have a similar issue can read the discussion, and I'm not going to be replying to you any faster through a PM. 2. You said your wii worked after you updated it. So you...

    Hacking Why add anti-piracy measures to Devolution ?

    Hey, we have something in common. Although I should point out I haven't hacked in years, but I can hack x86 without too much trouble using a realtime debugger. *sorry for the double-post, my bad.

    Hacking Why add anti-piracy measures to Devolution ?

    Okay firstly, I had a lol at "GC launched with digital AV out". Digital means either DVI or HDMI. YPbPr and RGB is, and always has been analogue. Every single NTSC game that was re-released as PAL, that had the 480p option, had that functionality intentionally removed. My point is that it...

    Hacking wii help

    Then the update has nothing to do with the brick. If you have bootmii installed as boot2 or priiloader installed you can boot straight to the HBC and bypass the System Menu. Here's a test you can do - do a savemiifrii if you have a GC controller handy. If you see the "recovery menu" (just the...

    Hacking help with wii motion plus

    Great, that's a bit better. Yes, but it also tells me that in the syscheck. :) Yes you do, however you need to start with the cIOS's. Here's Hermes cIOS's on your Wii: You do not need them for much, however you have not got them set up correctly. 2 of them are v4 - that really doesn't...

    Hacking help with wii motion plus

    You've got a really old and out of date syscheck version, the current version is here and gives a bit more info especially on your cIOS's. However, with that said, your system looks fine (with the exception that cIOS249 looks like it isn't current with your other cIOS's - if you post a syscheck...

    Hacking SoftModding Wii for a dummie

    Yes, but you can also just use a USB stick, and I personally use a stick as I find a HDD excessive for the task. Two things - 1. all SD cards larger than 2gb are SDHC, and 2. You can use DML and put all your gamecube games on the SD card instead of the usb drive. You'll probably fit about 10 GC...

    Hacking Looking for help re-softmodding

    You should be able to launch all your GC backup discs with NeoGamma (or any other loader). Your best bet is to post a syscheck. What version SM are you currently running?
