Hacking Dios Mios Lite

[FIX94]

sweet dude mario golf works now!

Then add to the compat list

since its on everyones mind including mine...what are the chances of this getting ISO support? I hate discex format. please tell me its possible.

also this is a cMIOS now. It may be its own app embedded in the MIOS, but it installs as a modified MIOS file. hence the term custom, hence the c. its a cMIOS. it was not at first, but that it what it has evolved into.

It is .iso support, the tools just need to rename the .isos, so DML finds them. And to me a cMIOS is a patched MIOS that at least allows to launch GC homebrew. Does DML allow this? No, it does not --> it's not really a cMIOS. I only approve of the term cMIOS if you have DML as a wad, so noobs realize that it overwrites MIOS. Or if you create a cMIOS with DML in it.

What I mean by .iso support is not having to convert to discex sorry I wasn't specific. It would be easier to test my games as they are in .iso format (and shrunk) to save space. I guess I could convert them all to discex, but I'd be afraid I can't change them back! I'm sure its possible, but still.

I don't know if you ever opened this folder but in it is just the copied iso file together with banner apploader etc extracted that it can be display'd easier.

yeah i have and thats what it seemed like, so the game.iso is essentially the same exact file? that would be cool, i may convert them then.

Yep it's exactly the same file

It's simple, Crediar doesn't like DML being called a cMIOS, so stop calling it that. Simple enough?

Didn't crediar sell the code? So it's not his anymore? That's like getting mad for someone using your sold car..maybe a car u built yourself, in a way you don't approve - you can't do anything about it

If you could read, then you would see that the most important changes since crediar sold the code, still came from crediar. Do you really want anybody from the project to piss him off, by disrespecting him? I don't. Well, if he was pissed off, he might stop doing stuff. And then the project would be stuck with me. You may think that i'm a good coder, but i'm not.

- Installing MIOS on real nand and just execute BC, that was something i could have come up with. But since it also required changes in DML's code, it would have taken me weeks to figure them out. I had no idea that the removed code was the actual "BC replacement".
- The 2 important multi .dol changes were new asm functions. Since when can i write asm code? Or even understand why a patch that gets applied does not work and needs to be replaced with another one? If you had given me a year, i would not have been able to fix this.

All in all, not calling DML a cMIOS is a matter of respect towards crediar in my eyes. @[member='everybodyknows'] who wants to call DML a cMIOS: Do you respect crediar and what he did for the wii scene in general and what he did with DML in detail?

PS: Everybody who quotes this in the wrong way, will be ignored by me in the future. Quoting just the stuff you want to quote is not that hard.

If crediar wanted a say in the name he should have open sourced the code himself. Did he? No, he sold it.

Added the r19 download to the first post and to the googlecode page. thx FIX94

 

[Sanoblue]

is it poss to make it load via sdgeko? and any advantages to that or disadvantages?

I'd have to agree. When a someone sells their source code to someone else, they are selling the rights to the code as well. If there was a provision in there that made them part of the development team and allowed for a deciding vote, then they could stop it from being called a cMIOS. Since Crediar sold the code, he gave up the rights to it, and so it could be called anything. Leaving it as DML is out of respect, which is nice, though not required as far as we can tell.

I don't think adding to googlecode is such a good idea, remember it's unofficial and I don't know if somebody even reads the description.

If you wanted a say in the name you should have written the code. Call it whatever you want but it just makes you look like an ass.

Is it any more stable with regards to SD card destruction than r16? I know you say it's not "fully stable" but is that specific issue even something that has been improved in those revs?

Yeah it's way more stable than r16 and r19 works fine for me, no errors for now. But see from irc yesterday:

[16.01.2012,21:30:52] btw is r19 stable now?
[16.01.2012,21:31:24] if everything works without fwrite enabled, then yes
[16.01.2012,21:32:22] the last test did not really work without it

I could care less what it's called..I don't even use this. However it's not his code anymore cuz he chose to sell the code instead of open source it himself. Not sure how I look like an ass for trying to make a point.

Perhaps not, but you do look like an ass for using a phrase that makes no sense: "I could care less..." - you could care less? That means that you do care about it. The correct phrase would be "I couldn't care less...", meaning there is no way you could care less about it i.e. you do not care about it.

It looks like the majority of people are voting to simply keep calling it dml. So, aren't these discussions becoming a little pointless?
GOdLiKE decided to leave it up to the community to vote for a name.
He bought the product from crediar, so I feel we should respect his choice as well, and move on.

Who's more of an ass... a person making a simple grammatical error, or another person pointing it out. Yes, I said I could when I should have said could not. Forgive me, grammar nazi.

Cool, thanks. I'll give it a try then. I'll still back up my SD card just in case, I just wasn't really interested in trying it out if it was still known to trash cards

 

[Taleweaver]

I just switched to r19 and fine thus far (yes, I have the SD card backed up). So far no noticeable differences from r12, but I'm just randomly playing some games.


And a bit of a question. The installation of DML prevents the use of swiss (which uses the 'classical' cMIOS). Will that remain that way?

 

[Ssx9]

I can't get neogamma to find the game :l

I wonder what did I miss.

Tried postloader as well, no success.
