Hacking Help with Nintendont and USB Loader GX

freeman292 · Feb 28, 2020

Hi everyone,
After failing to find an answer to my two issues, I would like to finally ask some help from the community.
1) I cant make nintendont work when the gc game is launched from USB Launcher GX. Either it crashes when creating a memory file or when I disable the memory file it crashes after the game launches. In the beginning it was freeszingthe system, and the only way was to unplug it. Now it's shutting the whole console down.
2) when i was loading the game directly from Nintendont, for the sake of me I can't get any controller to work. I am a collector so I have plenty of them to try but I have no clue what I am doing wrong.

Both Nintendont and USB Loader GX are updated.

Thanks in advance for the help

What controller are you trying to use? Also what size VMC is it set to create?

It was the default value 251 Kb I believe. Now it's just shutting down the whole system even when I just launch it from the homebrew launcher. Nintendont is in the SD card, the games are in a USB stick.

I tried the PS4 one, a wii u pro controller(not original I think) both wired. I also have a gamecube controller adapter but I didn't try it, because I read somewhere they don't work.

It's sounding like the USB stick could be at fault.

the wii u pro controller (official) works. don't know about a third party controller or a ps4 controller.

Hello,

Use an external hard drive, and everything will be fine

I am assuming so as well. They were from aliexpress. Real size 16 gb from the claimed 128 gbs. I thought if I write <16 gbs the right clusters will be used. Guess not. I just got a good pair today. Will try them.

The only problem I have with that is that I can't justify two hard drives, one for wii/gc and one separate for wii u games. A USB Stick makes more sense.

Anyone has an idea about the controllers?

Not sure where you read that but as far as I know they work just fine, they just don't work the same as real GC ports, they work through USB HID so stuff like GBA-GC link cable won't work.
Just make sure native controls aren't enabled. If that is on it will only work with GC controllers through the GC ports on an early Wii. USB HID will be disabled.

You can also inject the GameCube games using that utility and you can use the Wii U game pad to play games. You have to use a CFW like CBHC to do it though.
