Hacking Custom Nintendont System Menu Channels for Wii/vWii

[AbdallahTerro]

So everything works except the widescreen?
I have another hack for /loader/source/grrlib.c
you might try it too, recompile, reinject and test the new wad

Hi,

Shall i use the modified main.c you recommand for 720 hack or the original ?

Ty

 

[AbdallahTerro]

it's a hack for grrlib.c
You know what, I never tested these widescreen hacks myself, I'll check which ones work and recommend accordingly.

Actually just checking the code you can add

ncfg->VideoScale = 120;

to main.c
to make it look like this

if(argsboot ==false){
// if (LoadNinCFG() == false){
memset(ncfg,0,sizeof(NIN_CFG));
ncfg->Magicbytes=0x01070CF6;
ncfg->Version=0x00000003;
ncfg->Config= ncfg->Config|
//NIN_CFG_USB |
//NIN_CFG_HID |
//NIN_CFG_MEMCARDEMU |
//NIN_CFG_MC_MULTI |
//NIN_CFG_CHEATS |
//NIN_CFG_FORCE_WIDE |
//NIN_CFG_FORCE_PROG |
//NIN_CFG_NATIVE_SI |
//NIN_CFG_WIIU_WIDE |
NIN_CFG_AUTO_BOOT;
ncfg->VideoScale = 120;
ncfg->Language= NIN_LAN_AUTO;
ncfg->GameID=0x47414645;//GAFE
strcpy(ncfg->GamePath,"/Games/GAFE01 - Animal Crossing/game.iso");
//strcpy(ncfg->CheatPath, "/Games/GAFE01 - Animal Crossing/GAFE.gct");
ncfg->MaxPads=4;
ncfg->MemCardBlocks=0x0;//50 blocks use 0x2; for 251 blocks

// Prevent autobooting if B is pressed...

this should add an extra 120 pixels to the default 600 making it 720

Edit: tested and works fine

screenie using "Auto" aka 600 width

screenie after adding above line which sets width to 720

Do you think it's a good idea to share them ? I could send them to you, no ?

Those channels depend on gamepath and it s different for each user. If you want to share include the gamepath and ID.
Thanks for the offer. I use my mastermods as system menu replacement. But I m sure someone else will find them useful.

If you can boot them on sd using mastermods it will be great !

I'd like autoboot-theme-loading-bar.patch + theme 4 working on sd.

For the channels, options activated :
- Memcard Emulation (251 blocks for each game)
- Force widescreen
- Force Progressive
- Video width : 720

All games are in "games" folder in the root of the sd card.

Folder of games :

games/F-Zero Ax - FZAJ8P/
games/Mario Kart Arcade Gp 1 - MK1E01/
games/Mario Kart Arcade Gp 2 - MK2E02/
games/Virtua Striker 4 Ver.2006 - VS4E6E/

The link for downloading :

http://www.filedropper.com/channels

I hope nothing is missing...

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I made an autoboot mod of my mastermod
you can grab the sources and make you dol, then you'll get the themes + loading bar on boot if you have the correct PNG file in /apps/nintendont

 

[pitipablo]

Hello A-T,

I already tried to use your mastermod but impossible to boot from sd card "no fat device found"

If you have an solution for me it will be great... Otherwise, i keep my channels

Thank you for all.

I tried the version you advise me to download in our first messages.

Is it this version (on your website) autoboot ? Can i patch it to use with autoboot-theme-loading-bar.patch + theme 4 ?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I already tried it and it's not working..."no fat device found"

Could you try for me ?

The dol on your homepage is not autoboot, isn't it ? It's just a mod of nintendont, right ?

Thank you...

Already tried it before posting the link
And yes the website has the mod not the autoboot stuff

Hi,

Nintendont v3.387 autoboot is working fine. I don't need 4.13. I prefer to keep my channels Thanks anyway.

If you'll have a working autoboot mod of nintendont working on sd, it will be great.

Thank you for all.

Have a nice night

Hello, I am in need of help. When I try to load Super Smash Bros. Melee loader via Homebrew, it shows the message "Init USB/SD.... Error! 1 Shutting Down", and when I load it via a channel, it just freezes the Wii in a black screen forever. I can show you the setting I've put for the main.c file. The game's located on the USB,, and I've downloaded a pre-made WAD from the links you put, and I set the DOL opening to the Nintendont DOL, but it doesn't work whatsoever. Here are my settings.

if(argsboot == false)
    {
            ncfg->Magicbytes = 0x01070CF6;
            ncfg->Version = 0x00000003;

            ncfg->Language = NIN_LAN_AUTO;  
            ncfg->GameID = 0x47414c45;    //GALE       
            strcpy(ncfg->GamePath, "games\meleehd\game.iso");

            ncfg->MemCardBlocks = 0x0;//50 blocks use 0x2; for 251 blocks
            ClearScreen();

Is there something wrong? Please help.

yes, the folder name in the game path strcpy(ncfg->GamePath, "games\meleehd\game.iso"); should start with the game's ID6 so rename it to something like strcpy(ncfg->GamePath, "games\GALE01 - Melee\game.iso");
rename the folder on your HDD to match this one
rebuild the autoboot dol using this fixed line
rebuild the wad using the new autoboot dol and reinstall it

I did this but no luck, it still says the error message on Homebrew and the WAD still doesn't load....
Is there anything else that you'd need to know to fix this?

change those old 2 lines to this (removing and adding //)
NIN_CFG_MEMCARDEMU
//NIN_CFG_NATIVE_SI
btw which autoboot source are you using?
