    Exidous replied to the thread Is there any way to play Virtual Console (n64) games with a Mayflash 4-port Gamecube Adapter?.
    Not that I know of. Nintendont (for Gamecube games) is the only Wii software that supports that adapter AFAIK. Nintendo's Virtual Console software only works with the built-in/proprietary controllers: Gamecube or Wiimote(-attached). One of the...

    I don't know, but MAME Hexaeco do. Indications from the thread below are that it requires first-play configuration changes. I expect the resulting configuration files are game (file) specific, so we probably can't include the required light gun...

    Exidous replied to the thread weird Wii sd card formatting issues.
    Okay so you could put one Wii game on this sd to usb adapter with some software, and it worked. Your Wii isn't cursed, because all of this stuff that went wrong didn't involve it. The adapter could be bad, or maybe the software you're using...

    ModMii is the gold standard, you should do what it says. The additional non-d2x IOS wads are likely to restore and update parts of your Wii's operating system (which is comprised of a sequence of IOSes) #15, which ModMii actually lists as...

    Exidous replied to the thread Hacking Changing the Disc Channel.
    Don't know, but I can tell you that disk channel is "deeper" in the system menu than any other channel. Priiloader mod is AFAIK the only thing that makes it movable. It's possible that you'll need that depth of a modification (basically a hidden...

    Exidous replied to the thread Trump is the most corrupt US president in history.
    Yeah, to the extent the case is the basis, they rise or fall together. I'm currently not even sure if the purported settlement was ever filed Edit: it appears the outcome of this case is optimal. Even if Trump actually had a case about his tax...

    I wrote a whole thing before I realized the doom for the anti weaponization fund came over two weeks ago. Plaintiff Trump voluntarily dismissed with prejudice https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/72207870/62/trump-v-internal-revenue-service/ The...

    While I'm flattered to be confused with @Extrems , you sound like a bot. At least, someone using an LLM to write/translate his posts. Dear bot owner: it's an obvious design mistake having software whose job it is to read only check the first two...

    Yeah all N64 renderers for PC use either OpenGL or DirectX. Which is completely different from how the GameCube and Wii render things, that's the main issue. Although OpenGX might help with porting OpenGL based plugins.

    Think about it like you're setting up a coding bounty. It's a thing that you want someone else to do. You're trying to convince someone to work for many hours on something. You want to be able to say (1) what needs to be done (2) why it's worth...

    Porting a graphics plugin is a big job. AFAIK icepir8's graphics plugin is the default in Project64 Legacy. That was basically redeveloping PJ64 from an earlier version for older systems. It's plausible that it's in the right power/performance...

    Exidous replied to the thread Hacking Emulation What is the best way to recover my Wii Shop purchases?.
    I'm not sure if a local record of your Shop purchases exists. Wii might have a local record of all software that was installed on it (an aggregate of titleIDs? possibly not persistent between system menu updates). But I'm not sure anyone wrote...

    AFAIK any official means is discontinued. https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-legally-obtain-wii-shop-channel-games-in-2025.667443/ ShowMiiWads is PC software that can extract wii shop purchases (wads) from a Bootmii nand backup...

    Exidous replied to the thread Shadow Maul Proving Lucasfilm Should Abandon Live Action and Focus Only on Animation.
    Filoni is better than half of the directors/showrunners Disney has scraped up for Star Wars. He's a fanboy, but that's better than being a hack and disliking Star Wars. I don't think he's worse than Kennedy in his new role, for example. I...

    Yes. It's just like a page file on a computer: using space on the hard drive as an extension of RAM. It's only using available blank space, it's not affecting existing data stored in NAND.
