Hacking Devolution - Public Release

[SifJar]

Awesome! Thanks tueidj!

Prepare for a lot of complaints about having to use original disks to verify games though. And to be frank it does make the loader a bit useless as it HAS to be a cleanrip.

A working USB & SD loader for GC games is "useless"? Strange.

I can understand the anti-pirate measure, but lots of people won't. I'll give it a go tonight!

So what should I stick with DIOS MIOS or this? and I still have no idea as to how to switch to the second disc of twin snakes using DIOS MiOS?

 

[VashTS]

very awesome dude! thanks for the release although i cannot use it at all.

Indeed devolution is easy to integrate into other loaders, thanks tueidj for giving us that possibility!
If somebody wants to try it in wiiflow here you go:
http://www.mediafire...3nb25n8oob2lsd9
Just copy the loader.bin from the devolution source into your wiiflow folder on device root and play the games via devolution, wiiflow will auto detect the file That doesnt work with games extracted via gcreex though, wiiflow will boot them via diosmios regulary.

This, assuming you have legit disks. DM can't switch multidisk games yet(ones that don't save before letting you swap)

I don't know if you take feature requests or not, Tueidj, but if you do, would you consider adding a hard reboot/soft reset button combo to the GC controller inputs like Dios Mios has? It's really convenient not to have to go up to the Wii for a reboot or reset. But if not, that's fine too. Just thought I'd ask.

Here's how Dios Mios does it, if I remember correctly:
Start + Z + R = Reboots Wii(As if you pushed the power button quickly)
Z + R + B + Dpad down = Power off
Maybe include something like Z + R + B + Dpad up = soft reset(reset button pressed)?

No! You released it while I was at work! Haha. Thanks for this. I will test when I get home.

I'm about to sound like a complete n00b here by asking this... but, is it possible to use a already verified .iso on it's own with DM/DML?

 

[megahunter]

just tried Twilight Princess PAL version and it seems to be working quite good with some minor graphic glitches in the menus and on the map

thank you tueidj for giving this to the community.

With the loader Tueidj provided, no, since it doesn't scan subdirectories. It only looks for games in /games, not /games/GALE01 for example. But once other loaders add support for Devolution(or if someone updates Tueidj's loader), where they do scan subdirectories, it should work with both DM and Devolution.

Exactly, as wiiflow does already, seems like nobody noticed my file on page 2.

I noticed it, but I forgot to mention it. XD

I don't like the idea of button combos on the gamecube controller. When classic controller support is added all the buttons on the wiimote will be available for extra functions.

Ah, okay. That's great to hear though. Thanks.
