Hacking Devolution - Public Release

Do I really need to explain again that the wiimote(s) have to be connected before you insert the disc?

If they enter the Devolution app, then they have the Wiimote connected obviously. Doesn't it?

I kinda seem to remember it disconnecting them so you have the option to only connect the ones you want to verify with.
... I could be wrong, though. It's been a while since I thought I noticed that.

 

[megatokyo500]

The loader app can be started and controlled with a gamecube controller, or the wiimotes (which always disconnect briefly when a new app is started) may not reconnect before the disc begins to be read. That's why the instructions tell you to REMOVE ANY DISCS FROM THE WII as step 1 and then make sure any wiimotes are connected BEFORE inserting the disc. It's really not rocket science...

Anyone care to venture a guess as to why BMX XXX will start up on some wiis but not others? For the longest time, I have had little success with this game, but kept it on just in case Devo got updated well enough. I got some wiis on ebay, switched one out with a friend's, since it was set up better, and not expecting much, verified the game. So my surprise, it worked.

I've since tried it on my wii again, which always gives me a black screen, another wii, which gave the same, and yet another wii, on which it works. Can anyone explain why Devo is being such a finicky bitch?

See my reply about the issues I've been having with two games in similar cases to yours. Its in this page and the previous one. Try that and tell me if it works.

First post says not to report issues without any logs, neither of you have posted any. Do you expect people here to be psychic?

Yes. Yes I do. Or rather I expect that I couldn't possibly be the only person that has encountered this problem and someone who has had a similar problem, knows what they're talking about, and has been around more than a week, might be willing to divulge some useful information.

The solution I posted for my case didn't help you?

I give this 1 month before someone makes a version without antipiracy lol

LOL, i could not resist replying to this statement that was made about 1,5 year ago... you were dead wrong, now pay up

I think we should be able to load games straight from the disc. Cause every now and then Cleanrip decides not to work. Then you have to go and download an iso of the game. And everyone knows that takes HOURS. Then you have to transfer it to your usb/sd. Having an option to play straight from the disc would be very helpful.

Wait, you mean... Playing the game FROM the disc? What an amazing idea.

I could see this if you wanted to play a game with only a Classic/PS3 controller and/or no memory card.

I have a problem
i dump pso 1&2 with cleanrip2 (and verify it).
After moving it to the games folder, i start the devolution loader.
I load the game with my classic pro controller. Now the drive light flash 2 times and i enter my pso disk.
Now i hear it read and than happens nothing.
The screen is black. After 40 Minutes still nothing.
I tried many different USB and SD storage media.

I use a black softmodded Wii.

i hope someone can help.

I think the gba connectivity could also be with a NDS, maybe runing one homebrew or download&play content?

I'm having a weird issue with Super Mario Sunshine. It's been working beautifully in Devolution, but after a few minutes, I can no longer use FLUDD. The animation shows when I hit the button, but no water comes out, and there's no sound either. The only way to fix it is to restart the wii u (but it happens again pretty soon after that). Has anyone else experienced this?

Try filling the Fludd with water again, maybe that's the issue...


Lol jk.
You're not hitting the button L in the controller right?
That switches some customization in the controller.

OMG for a second there I was about to punch the computer screen for that response xD

I just tested the L button thing, and yep, that was what was doing it. Kinda glad it was just that, I was worried I'd have to re-rip and re-verify the game xD

Glad i was of help.
Actually I was having the same issue with Sunshine too until I noticed that pressing the "L" button changes the button layout on-the-fly.

Hi, I have a black Wii with no GC ports on it - what would be my best option for playing my GC games? To use Devolution, would I need an older Wii as well to rip the games?
