Can someone link to the wad? The mediafire link isn't working

Nice. The problem though is if someone wants to create a backup of an original game as the vast majority of computer DVD drives can't read them. I tried to make an iso of my original of Zelda with Image Burn but it refused to see anything was in the drive.

that is not forced NTSC anyway.

Just a request:

Can someone compile and make a .dol and .wad using this background?

Made this for the kids.

*Forgive me if this request in this thread is not proper, I just want to contribute.

Yeah, it is forced NTSC. Here is the method that needs to be modified, with my revision by the end. Most of the method could be removed and replaced with hardcoded NTSC info, but that isn't necessary. I have compiled and tested this, and it forces my PAL games to display properly in NTSC instead of black+white.

CODE

void __Disc_SetVMode(void)
{
ÂÂÂÂGXRModeObj *vmode = NULL;

ÂÂÂÂu32 progressive, tvmode, vmode_reg = 0;

ÂÂÂÂ/* Get video mode configuration */
ÂÂÂÂprogressive = (CONF_GetProgressiveScan() > 0) && VIDEO_HaveComponentCable();
ÂÂÂÂtvmodeÂÂÂÂÂÂ=ÂÂCONF_GetVideo();

ÂÂÂÂ/* Select video mode register */
ÂÂÂÂswitch (tvmode) {
ÂÂÂÂcase CONF_VIDEO_PAL:
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = (CONF_GetEuRGB60() > 0) ? 5 : 1;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂbreak;

ÂÂÂÂcase CONF_VIDEO_MPAL:
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = 4;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂbreak;

ÂÂÂÂcase CONF_VIDEO_NTSC:
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂbreak;
ÂÂÂÂ}

ÂÂÂÂ/* Select video mode */
ÂÂÂÂswitch(diskid[3]) {
ÂÂÂÂ/* PAL */
ÂÂÂÂcase 'D':
ÂÂÂÂcase 'F':
ÂÂÂÂcase 'P':
ÂÂÂÂcase 'X':
ÂÂÂÂcase 'Y':
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂif (tvmode != CONF_VIDEO_PAL) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = 5;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmodeÂÂÂÂ = (progressive) ? &TVNtsc480Prog : &TVEurgb60Hz480IntDf;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ}

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂbreak;

ÂÂÂÂ/* NTSC or unknown */
ÂÂÂÂcase 'E':
ÂÂÂÂcase 'J':
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂif (tvmode != CONF_VIDEO_NTSC) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂvmodeÂÂÂÂ = (progressive) ? &TVNtsc480Prog : &TVNtsc480IntDf;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ}

ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂbreak;
ÂÂÂÂ}

ÂÂÂÂ/* Force NTSC */
ÂÂÂÂvmode_reg = 0;
ÂÂÂÂvmode = (progressive) ? &TVNtsc480Prog : &TVNtsc480IntDf;
ÂÂÂÂ
ÂÂÂÂ/* Set video mode register */
ÂÂÂÂ*(vu32 *)0x800000CC = vmode_reg;

ÂÂÂÂ/* Set video mode */
ÂÂÂÂif (vmode)
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂVideo_Configure(vmode);
}

then u use usb loader 1.0 for that on the wii

NOT on the pc

 

[Satangel]

Thanks, I'll try this one out on my Wii

 

[wiiv1.5owners3]

download devkitpro and customize it for yourself, it's really easy.

get it from wiibrew

extract the source (wii-sh's source?) to a folder: "urfolder"

open programmers notepad (comes with devkitpro install), create new project named usbYOURNAME inside urfolder

right click on your project, add magic folder, add urfolder

then click:
tools->clean
tools->make

DONE!

you can modify the background pic in /data all you want

So is the wad on firs page udated to force NTSC? Sorry if that is the case for posting a wrong info here, I thought you posted it before that dol came out.

 

[bluebird12]

On the first page is the NTSC dol i made. I'm not sure if anyone made a wad, but I can if u give me banner/logo/ etc.

 

[m-tek]

Updated!!!

V2

* greater game compatibility (ntsc/pal)
* png loading from sd card (/USBLOADER)
* Added full version + full version force ntsc

Now I need feedback to see if people on pal can boot ntsc using the standard loader ... My wii has never played ntsc without giving a green screen .. Now they work.. Tested 3 iso's all booted....

Can you compile the Child loader with the background built in or change the path to usb_loader, because I set up a dol-forwarding channel for some family because they have 5 children, and I wanted to use this but the background isn't loading, which i suspect has to do with the different folders. I have tried having the background in the USBLOADER folder and in the usb_loader folder, neither work.

 

[MightyMouse]

just made a .wad of V2 childproof version

can someone test if it loads its .png from SD sucesfully, cant get to wii for a hour or two

Thanks a million, this worked!

 

[xem1x]

Source for v2? I would like to compile one tonight.

 

[phrozenfeonix]

*sigh* we almost need a wiki or something to keep track of all these features in the different loaders.

Would someone mind clarifying this for me?

In the most recent USB_LOADERS_V2.rar posted...
Child.dol - basic v1.1 loader, childproofing, lopst mod
full.dol - the basic v1.1 loader, with lopst mod
full_force_ntsc.dol - basic v1.1 loader, lopst mod, ntsc mod...

Is there a PAL version?
Does childproof have force ntsc mod?
do all 3 versions load backgrounds from the usbloader folder on the root of sd?

I think that's all my questions for now...

 

[m-tek]

no source just yet ... Its a mess at the minute...

What do you need source for??
