Wouldnt it be possible to have cintros like on the psp now....using preloader and autobooting a .dol????

Obviously the .dol needs to ...lets say...

1,Play an avi (or compatible format) from your SD card
2,exit to system menu...

Thus creating a cintro....

Sounds possible to me..

Any thoughts??

First step is no problem... there is a problem with the second step... no nice way to load system menu since preloader fucks up the system menu dol...

here is an example
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8...19503&hl=en

If crediar implements something like first booting the autoboot dol and then the patched system menu itself then the possibilities are endless..

I myself want to create a specific dol that displays random kanjis for each start of my wii... kanjis will be taken from a database and will be configurable...
Something like this : http://www.tepetaklak.com/kanjidesktop/

ported to the wii...

By the way the dol in the video is above 3mb containing 3mb mp3... still it loads less than a second... so boot times will not much suffer...

    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default

    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after

    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)
