    Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

    I revisited my Adaptoid fork of the Aroma controller_patcher code to task Claude Code with resolving the strange behaviour of centered stick readings regardless of position if the HID data isn't changing when mapped as a Pro Controller (not an issue when mapped as GamePad). Claude solved it by...

    Minecraft - creative mode full inventory missing

    I haven't really played this game on the Wii U, but my daughter had spent many tens of hours in Creative Mode. Something has happened though, and she can no longer seem to get the full inventory of materials which she tells me had been accessible on the X button. Can anyone suggest what may have...

    EZFlash IV white screen/instant power off after flash attempt

    Are you sure this isn't the FAT16 versus FAT32 issue? The old firmware 1.x needs the SD to be FAT16, but once flashed to 2.x it must be a FAT32 formatted SD.

    Homebrew Tutorial SDUSB - The modern way to play Wii U games from SD - at full speed

    I own a hacked Wii U with an old M.2 SSD connected via USB. I always found it a bit unsatisfactory having to have this separate device attached. For Christmas I gifted a Wii U console to a friend's kids and I followed this guide and it all works beautifully - really nice work! A single 256GB SD...

    Hacking What's the most authentic N64 controller that is compatible with the Wii U?

    I have expanded HID to VPAD to work with the Adaptoid USB adaptor for real N64 controllers. It's an old device which will be virtually impossible to find now though. It works well, now for Aroma too: https://gbatemp.net/threads/hid-to-vpad.424127/post-10526281 1737307950 There are cheaper...

    Native sleep mode fix patches for EZ-FLASH IV

    Do you have a modded screen in an AGB console with a Select + L/R brightness control? I have the FunnyPlaying ITA and it causes this issue. No such problem on my GBMicro or on my GBA SP.

    Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

    Out of interest, are you using it with an Adaptoid, or some other device with greater than 8bit axis reports?

    Homebrew Super Mario 64 Port - Wii U

    Has anyone got a build which fixes this problem? It's meant to be configurable with the settings file, but that value is replaced every time without effect.

    Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

    I cleaned up my fork of the Aroma controller_patcher code some more and turned the axis processing into a function rather than repeating a huge chunk four times. It will be possible to make INI files for racing wheels and pedals which use 16bit HID axis reports, using this build. See the notes...

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    That's what I had done in the first instance when it didn't work. However I didn't confirm what the partition table type was before I blew it all away with Rufus.

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    Not sure. I didn't check. It was ExFAT from the packet (since SDXC spec) and I just clicked format and selected FAT. So I think it leaves the partitions unchanged. So either it was already UEFI, or macOS defaults to that on large removable media.

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    I used Rufus to repartition and format it on a PC and it's working fine now. I suspect that it was probably UEFI partitioned when it needed to be MBR partitioned. I probably could have done that on the Mac. But at least this info will be here now in case someone else has the issue.

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    Full size SD. Could it be a fragmentation issue perhaps?

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    Hmm. It is FAT32 with 32K allocation units though. I have checked with `diskutil info`. I'll try using a PC to format it, but I'm wondering if the card might be defective.

    SD card size upgrade - payload won't load.

    I want to move from a 32GB card to a 128GB card I just bought. It's definitely genuine since I ran F3 on it to test it and it passed. I formatted the new card as FAT32 using Disk Utility on macOS and copied all the contents of my 32GB card onto it, but when I put it in the Wii U and boot I see...

    Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

    I have brewed up an aroma build of hid_to_vpad 0.1.1-alpha with Adaptoid N64 controller adapter support - and support for any controller with up to 16bit HID axis reports, and for controllers with signed HID axis reports (ranges with negative numbers). You can inspect my Adaptoid INI file to get...

    Homebrew Official HID to VPAD

    I have finally moved over to Aroma and I'm using the version of hid_to_vpad from the Aroma plugins thread. The persistence is really nice, makes it easy for my kids to use a GC controller instead of the giant gamepad. Is this built from the source code in the wups branch on the GitHub repo (6...

    EZ-Flash Omega : Writing in PSRAM

    Looks like OP asked this before a few years ago. EZ Team reported that there is no direct PSRAM access from Game Mode on the Omega by design: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ezflash-omega-writing-in-psram.580813/#post-9328539
