Sorry for asking but what exactly is Quadforce?

Its a dios mios like mod for the wii that enables triforce games such as mario kart gp and gp 2 f zero ax etc

Alright, 8BitLuigi, or anyone else keeping track of things, can you post a conglomeration of every donation thus far? I'll keep track of it in a Google Spreadsheet.

Crediar Quadforce pledge list
W hat: 10 DONATED(?)
Fire-WSP: 5
8BitWalugi: 20 DONATED
scooby74029: 7.64 (10 USD)
kenshen: 7.64 (10 USD) DONATED
Hilmarf: 100 (Only if multiplayer and card is possible)
TomR: 100 DONATED

Running total: 242.64/500 Euro

Where do we contribute?
Nowhere, yet. We'll let Crediar tell us where to send the money.

Why should I contribute?
Crediar is a pretty cool guy. He's one of the key people behind Dios Mios, Preloader, and SNEEK. Of course, he also is working on Quadforce, and has contributed to other projects as well.

Other homebrew developers work for free.
How much did you pay for SNEEK? Crediar is a highly skilled developer, and people like that are highly valuable to many companies. You're getting a discount on his work because Crediar likes homebrew enough to work on it in his spare time. This is intense hacking and Crediar could be working on anything he wants.

Contribute if you like him or his work, or maybe if you just want to see an updated Quadforce released. I don't think any other developer will come forward with a similar project.

Alright, I got the form filled with everyone I saw. Let me know if I forgot anyone. I also posted this on topic fzerocentral - I assume they'll be glad to help out. Keep an eye on the document as there will be donations coming in from different places.

Its a little unfortunate that the recent discovery of applying a code to F-Zero GX enables the full AX game. Makes the milestone a little less exciting. Still its certainly great that progress is being made.

GX's AX isn't the authentic AX. AX had different driving physics, and could use the GX save data. Plus, if this hits 500EUR, there's a chance Crediar can enable CARD support for AX.

Alright, I'll keep the OP updated for GBATemp donations too.

Does the currently released version of QuadForce run the Mario Kart games at fullspeed?

Hilmarf · Apr 27, 2013

I have a two player racing cabinet I want to convert to Mario Kart GP (for personal use obviously). Seems like I have to pick two Triforce 3's to make that happen.
Still; love that quadforce isn't abandoned.

Mario Kart Arcade GP1 run perfectly (Except for CARD), GP2 works and is playable, but has a few minor issues.

Also, to whoever it was that asked about Classic Controller support for QF:

Ah, that would be amazing. Do you still wanna donate or not really?

Man, I sound terrible... I don't want to seem forcing. :I

i send some money to my paypal account, so i can donate to it maybe tomorrow or the day after^^

and i have something interesting to show..
it makes it way more interesting to play f-zero ax on the wii.

i hacked some pretty cool geckocodes.
accessing debug menu,
accessing f-zero gx menu..

beta all cups. there are 111 tracks (numbered from 0 to 110). most of them are not accessible in f-zero gx. but you can access all of them in ax. there are tons of beta tracks. many of them have no background or no textures.. but the really interesting thing is, that there are older versions of the story mode tracks, of some gx tracks and 2 totally unknown tracks.

look at the screenshots below.

i made everything using dolphin emulator. but it is TOTALLY useless for gameplays, because no controls work in races, the camera often messes up and the game runs instable.

so testing out these codes on the wii using quadforce will be amazing!

here are some screenshots:

the beta stage selecion menu

unknown track #1

unknown track #2

beta stage of chapter 2

beta stage of chapter 5

more screenshots:

And the code itself:

now i really want to have the new quadforce version more than before

We're not far off from an AX-compatible version now! I spoke to Crediar, it's about 70EUR to go!

I would like to see a stripped down version dios mios with quad force together USB even if it meant no hook or 2 disk support , just would be nice not have to load a new wad
Everytime just to play 3 games then back too GC collection in the end when quad force is released with USB support

LWares87 · Apr 27, 2013

If the 'community' actually gets behind this, I just hope that crediar sticks to his word...

Keep Donating, Everyone!!!

Edit: By the way.. I would like to take back what i said earlier

I could pitch the idea to him, if you want.

I trust Crediar. He hasn't failed everyone before, and I'm sure he won't this time either.

I wouldn't mind donating again to Quadforce to see some improvements with it . I already now there is a space restraint . just think if some of the extras are taken out it might fit..
so yes please ask if it could be a reality

StarkNebula · Apr 29, 2013

^ This. I agree. Though wouldn't this be possible/easier using emunand?

Updated donation total. We're looking at about 180€, though I don't know what amounts paypal may have taken off what crediar gets.

CosmoCortney · Apr 29, 2013

donated 25€

@8BitWalugi
you said that he told you that usb gecko support would be easily possible.
could you ask him, if it will be supported on the next release of QF or will it be a future project?

Updates to QF would only be if we hit 500EUR, I'll still tweet him though.

UPDATE:
I asked Crediar about the total so far, PayPal takes a small fee from the donation. The real total so far is 163.08EUR (Before Cortney's donation). I know it's lower than expected, but it's not a huge loss. We can do this!

i know that all future updates will be publicated if we reach the 500€ -goal.
but he just said that usb gecko support can be easily done. so i expected if it isn't too ornating it would be supported in the next relaise..

EDIT: Total now sits at 187.25EUR! We're so close!
