    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    SNEEK runs at the IOS level and keeps the SD card open all the time, redirecting NAND accesses to it. If you were to access it from the PPC side simultaneously, reads might be okay but writes would probably damage the filesystem since two threads are modifying the file table simultaneously...

    Hacking Hack for the 4.0 system

    Oh, nifty, didn't see that before. I have no idea how the initial DowngraderIOS35 manages to patch the IOS to allow wad installation again (maybe it patches the running copy in RAM?) but from then on the process is straightforward: downgrade IOS35 to a vulnerable copy, run WAD Installer on top...

    Hacking Hack for the 4.0 system

    Bannerbomb is a new exploit and the successor to Twilight Hack. It supposedly works with 4.0 so you can at least run loadmii to load homebew. I don't know if you'll be able to install an IOS or HBC with 4.0 as is, however, since it blocks non-official channels and IOSes. Worse, Bannerbomb...

    Homebrew DosBOX Wii

    It looks like sd card speed has some effect on playability. In many cases the menus are quite slow and loading times are long but the game engine itself zips along well enough. Swapping out my ancient 256MB card for a class 6 2gb card from my camera straightened out Jazz Jackrabbit, which is...

    Hacking WBFUSE (WBFS for FUSE)

    Yeah, that function will likely cause a memory leak. Your best option is to mangle the original string. Here's an attempt that uses the c strchr function to locate characters. Caveat emptor: totally untested. edit: noticed bug and fixed it. told ya, and there are probably many more...

    Hacking WBFS & Linux

    I'm using Ubuntu and use WBFUSE to access WBFS, and it works pretty well for me. The volume appears as a normal mounted drive and you can drag files onto it or delete them.

    Hacking USB Loader Hard Drives - Call to coders

    My harddrive isn't detected well, but neither the swap trick nor the working fat32 flash in top slot workarounds work. swap trick: blank black console after swap/selecting to format a partition, exception dsi on power button (I can post core dump if it may help).flash in top trick: offered to...

    Hacking USB Harddrive with 2 Partitions

    I would have guessed homebrew FAT libraries wouldn't detect the second partition. Correct me if I'm wrong since this could be very handy.

    Hacking I Can't Get My HDD To Play Homebrew

    I'm guessing it's a sleep issue. Lots of usb hard drives will power down to conserve energy, reduce heat, and prevent a possible head crash if the drive gets moved or knocked over. For whatever reason, the drive won't get woken up on next access; my guesses as to why run from:The cios USB 2.0...

    Hacking How to feed 3.5 hdd from Wii ext. power?

    Funny, I have that same adapter and have had zero luck with the 3.5" drives I have tested: Seagate 7200.8 PATA 400gb Seagate 7200.10 SATA 500gb Using cios rev10 and waninoko's 1.5 loader. Tried formatted FAT32 and WBFS using the original Linux tools (not the Windows port). I was about to give...

    Snes9x GX

    SRAM and savestates should migrate just fine -- they use Snes9x's format. You can also migrate SRAM or savestates from Snes9x on Windows/Mac/Linux/Whatever. For SRAM just copy to the saves folder and rename as [rom_file_name].srm Snes9x savestates (.000, .001, etc) are stored gzipped and must...

    Hacking Scan for Bricking programs?

    @Sephiroth, It'd be interesting to submit the brickers to VirusTotal to see which antivirus programs detect them.

    Homebrew The Truth behind GBA emulation

    Can we get slightly more detailed documentation on this? At least snippets of this proof-of-concept code? If the author is reluctant to release it, why not suggest that he tune the paging to thrash badly before releasing it. A demo small enough to fit in RAM without page evictions would work...

    Hacking Problems with GBA-roms on DS

    Right, but it is reset if you turn off your DS. My understanding is that with the NOR flash on the 3 in 1, once you load a game it stays there even if you power off. So you can just keep a game on there and start using it as soon as you power on.

    Hacking Power source

    the real issue here is how clever the charging electronics in the NDS lite are we already know they're at least smart enough to stop charging when the battery is full, preventing overcharging and damaging the battery the question is if they begin charging again if the DS battery runs down...

    Hacking Team Cyclops New Ds Product!

    I liked the review -- really gives a good idea about the GUI features on the CycloDS, and I'm impressed with how fast that cart loads! I have friends that use A Small Orange for hosting and are very happy with it -- it looks to be very cheap for small sites that only need shared hosting. (I do...

    CycloDS Evolution in-house at GBAtemp

    Kamui101: I doubt buying an R4 was a bad decision -- just keep in mind how awesome it's been between when you bought it and now (just as something better might be available). Relax and think of it like buying computer equipment. Things are continually improving, but you want to be able to...

    Hacking How to DLDI patch - Linux

    I seem to remember a Really Good Reason? for being careful of the permissions set on files in /usr/bin You definitely want to make root the owner and group for these files, and set permissions so that only root can write to them. Otherwise another user could just overwrite that file with, say...
