Hacking Devolution - Public Release

[strai]

Weird to find out about this from neogaf considering I always check this site for updates haha

Is it possible to connect wii pro cc and a ps3 controller as controllers 1 and 2?

 

[kp_centi]

I just tried it and yes you can. You can have a controller combo with all of the controller even GC controller it seems

 

[Cyan]

I think it's possible, the readme indicates that you can have multiple controllers connected at the same time (Toggle the global rumble setting for all emulated controllers).

edit: like said above

 

[Excelsiior]

Serious question, does the Wii U Pro controller work on a normal Wii in r200, or only on a Wii U?

Yes it does work in Wii.

 

[GolfDude]

id love to know how to direct map it.. playing melee with inverted buttons is no fun

Future Improvements
Things that are already planned:
- Wiimote support
- BBA emulation
- USB microphone support instead of the GC microphone
Things that may be added:
- GBA connectivity to a GBA emulator via TCP/IP

Looking at the original list of expected improvements, he's come a long way (and it's had some other, unexpected improvements, too, along the way.)

ok i just tried my ds3 and cc pro controller. It works!!! It even allows you to choose which controller you want. Great!!

Is it possible to use ds3 controller wirelessly? I tried but the ds3 leds keep flashing

Nvm. I just read the readme. Im playing zelda on my ds3 wirelessly. Sweet

im not having any luck getting it to work on the wiiU.. with the games on the sd card, it just gives the 00000000 id and cant change it or start a game.. if i try to use my harddrive, it says it isnt mounted.. no luck on the wiiu for me

I have exactly the same problem! For a strange reason,Devolution cannot mount my HDD via Wii U.

Does anyone know why this is happening? I can assure you that all the USB Loaders can mount my HDD with no problem...

 

[Nintendo Maniac]

Do I HAVE to press the Home button every time I launch a game in Devolution? That's kind of annoying...

You probably need to enable the "Direct Mapping" setting (if available in the loader) :

YES YES YES. I came to complain how A and B = B and Y, but you have just made my day since I didn't know about that function.

Make sure you're not pressing the wrong button in the sample loader. Since in GC games X & Y are mapped to A and X by default, you need to press the X button on a CC/pro to mount a USB drive, not the Y button.

EDIT: wait, is direct button mapping not supported in the sample loader? Awww... Come on Maxternal where's your sample loader mod?

EDIT 2: I wonder if it'd be possible to remap the controls at all via a sample loader mod, or is that direct button mapping the only control settings given?

 

[GolfDude]

i got it working on the wiiU now.. i just did a redump on my wii to get it working on the sd card.. the hard drive setup on the other hand is still a big fail (still wont mount drive)..

but at least i can access it through usb loader gx

so the HDD mounts just fine on your normal Wii with Devolution?
Have you tried all the different USB ports on Wii U ? (shouldn't matter I don't think but worth a try)
Assuming a WiFi log still works from a Wii U and that it's not failing BEFORE the WiFi logging starts, you could always post a log here and hope tueidj sees it (seems to have worked in the past)

 

[GolfDude]

yes the drive mounts no issue on the wii and loads the games via the devo loader,

hmm i just found my wiiU issue..

if my wiiU HD is also connected, devo doesnt like that and tries to deafult to the wiiU drive (connected on the front usb ports) and not my wii drive which is plugged into the back usb ports

 

[super waluigi]

Can someone help me out?

I've ripped Chibi Robo, Mario Sunshine, and Smash Bros to my 16gb USB drive and everytime I load up devolution and press X to mount USB, I get

'Disc ID 0000000
Press START to Exit'

Can someone help me find out what the problem is? I see something in the readme about a sample loader but I don't think I have that? I have the ISOs in a 'games' folder on the USB, and there's nothing else on the USB. I load Cleanrip and Devolution off of a 4gb SD card (which also holds GC saves)
I'm a Wiibrew noob so please bear with me ._.

 

[Maxternal]

I'd say post a WiFi log if you can
Failing to mount while still in the loader might not show up there, though.

 

[super waluigi]

How odd

I pressed 2 on the Wiimote and everything worked fine, but using the Classic Controller wouldn't work

Ah well! Got Mario Sunshine to load!

Now, can someone guide me in how I can get games running on WiiU, with a PS3 controller, in 16:9 mode?

 

[Blueie]

So I tried playing Animal Crossing with a Wii Classic Controller Pro. Is it me or the controls are set funny. Like the letters do not match the one of gamecube. I kept toggling back and forth between CCP and GC Controller, and it does not align up right.

EDIT; Y is B // B is A
This is weird

What are you complaining about? That's the only sensible button mapping.

 

[Maxternal]

EDIT 2: I wonder if it'd be possible to remap the controls at all via a sample loader mod, or is that direct button mapping the only control settings given?

Well, for now at least I seem to remember seeing a button combination in the readme to switch between the button mappings.

I haven't looked at the code yet but I think Cyan mentioned there being an option to change it in there so that should be possible, too.

 

[blaisedinsd]

Is the verification tied to a single wiimote or can you do it on multiple wiimotes? if you want to set up on wiiu and wii do you have to transfer a single wiimote back and forth for verification?

 

[Motobug]

As a noob to Devolution (I've been using DM), does the drive have to be formatted in FAT32? Also, what do you have to do for verification?

And I really hope that since the WUPC is supported, we'll get a way to use them fully on vWii.

 

[kp_centi]

However if you launch the game on a different Wii/WiiU, you
will need to perform Step 5 (connect one of the same wiimotes used in the original
process) instead of being able to skip boths Steps 5 and 6.

So does this mean if I have to pop the disc again on a different system or just have the wii mote?

ALSO:
Yesterday I spent my whole day adding like 30 plus games to the compatibility chart, does this mean I can add another confirmed number when I test them on r200 or just change the rev version?
