Hacking Devolution - Public Release

[kp_centi]

I don't seem to understand a lot of that.

 

[OriginalHamster]

I... I don't know what to say, it's kinda scary

 

[scooby74029]

it all goes back to when tueidj turned in modmii for violations of the googlecode repo. i dont know the specifics but i heard about it when devolution was released

 

[Etheboss]

That binary blob text are quotes from different old post from gbatemp..

 

[PityOnU]

I swear Computer Scientists give teenage girls a run for their money when it comes to drama

 

[Nintendo Maniac]

Well, there's a reason the old-ish meme "The internet is serious business" came into existence...

Interestingly enough, both computer scientists and teenage girls would fall into the category of heavy internet users.

The blob contains a bunch of unrelated random posts made from tempers a long time ago, that's why it doesn't make any sense if someone isn't familiar with the "drama" from back then. It's funny to see that one of the lines was a comment I made long ago. Never understood the point of doing this but it was quite entertaining anyways.

Maybe part of it is used as pseudo random data to create a symmetrical encryption key?

 

[Cyan]

yes, this data is used for the encryption process.
It could have been anything else, he just copy-pasted the text he had available at that time.

 

[Coto]

who needs a dictionary data with random words when you've got GBATemp??!

/good work on devolution

edit: that walltext has all the ascii table symbols, so it could be used as part of the enc/decryption stuff (up to 7Fh)

 

[RedCoreZero]

Can you do action replay,nevermind I'm keeping my regular Wii.

I thought it was a private conversation between Giantpune and someone else (tj_cool?).

Part of it is a private conversation involving the people you mentioned and the other part were public posts made here at Gbatemp by some other tempers.(ps the first sentence is part of a lyric from a song) http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/We've-Got-The-Knife-lyrics-A-F-I-AFI/F12A5E38F02F60784825765D001E12D8

 

[tmv_josue]

I already knew about AFI's song, just was not sure about the conversation later.

Now you do

Now that all has been explained (more than one time), let's go back to the main topic.
The piracy/encryption talk is in another thread.
Thanks

there is a way to get a PS3 controller to work with wii homebrew, the controller will only work on the wii with a usb charging cable connected, no bluetooth connectivity. The author of devolution, or somebody else, would have to implement this into devo. It does work, I tried a version of the snes emulator that had this installed to it, worked on the Wii and Wii U.

[AaronZ]

^^ Nice thanks for that info will definitely try it sometime.

 

[EzekielRage]

why in heavens name would you WANT to use that horribly imprecise controller? the PS3 controller is crap. I own a PS3 and i bought third party controllers because the original sony controllers suck balls. if you say you want to use the 360 controller - that makes perfect sense.
best controller still GameCube one though^^

 

[Maxternal]

on youtube tueidj said he already had PS3 controllers working. The idea is that if you don't have GC ports on your Wii (or Wii U) having as many other options as possible would be the best.
