Hacking DIOS MIOS (Lite)

[WiiUBricker]

Rapid Gator's services work fine over here.

Nobody said they didn't work.

Then why are you getting so upset about it? You have to wait thirty seconds, oh well. At least he didn't use Rapidshare or some other crappy file upload service.

Please read the previous comments.

Please read the previous comments.

I read them, but I still don't get why you're upset about automatic downloads, wget, etc.

I guess Wiibricker is saying that for Modmii, but that does not matter here.
And even less because Crediar have the right to do that.

Then don't use Modmii to download it, problem solved.

Alright, since you don't seem to grasp it, let me explain it to you.

Google Code: http://diosmios.googlecode.com/files/DIOSMIOS_2.2.wad
Rapidgator: http://rapidgator.net/file/29763807/DIOSMIOS_2.2.wad.html

The first link is a more static link than the second. When it's updated, then only the version number is changed. You can write a script that downloads this file regardless of the version number.
The second link however is a more complex link with a randomly generated number. When the link is updated, then the number changes, but there is no way to write a script for that. How is the script supposed to know the exact number? This means that each time crediar updates his rapidgator links, you have to update your script. That's why I said people are gonna host the files themselves.

i wish this forum had a little button on posts that said "DISLIKE THIS?"

 

[Gassy]

Well, this is a first. I honestly can't figure out how to download this. I try and go through that rapidgator bullshit, and wait, but don't get a link.

That's not a good excuse to rehost.
Go ahead and download it from your web browser.

You fail hard in understanding the concepts of projects involving automated downloaders my friend.

Yes maybe, but the fact is this project isn't about automated downloaders and even less approve them, my friend.

@wiibricker I see your point and I'm an avid ModMii supporter and user, plus I'm sure other people write their own scripts as well, but is it that frustrating to just re-direct to his rapidgator link instead? Either way if it bothers people that much they'll do whatever they need to do, I agree with you there, but honestly why not respect the devs wishes and just work with the issue rather than around it

Edit: On another note I have PSO I & II, and I think it's the right version, I remember reading there were some specifics that needed to be met to play the game. Can anyone refresh my memory. I mostly use GCReEx but I dunno if I need to convert the ISO with DiscEx, have a disc in the drive or not, options like padhook on/off that kind of thing.

I'm using DM 2.2 (7-20-12) and have had success with every game I've tried thus far, finally updated from DML 1.5 today.. It's been a long time coming but I didn't want to face the dissapointment if my HDD wasn't compatible and lo' and behold everything is working super quick and pristine clear. I love DM, thanks Crediar, Skold, Sangor and whoever else might be involved with this amazing app. You guys rock and I hope donations continue abound.

To all who have posted over the last few pages over downloaders, etc.....


Maybe I am seeing this all wrong but I want to give my opinion over these past few pages.

Why is everyone making such a "big" deal about this statement @wiibricker made? As an "outside" observer , I agree with points from each direction and I do think ModMii has helped the "scene" out in so many directions so wonder why everyone is getting frustrated over nothing. I think @wiibricker has a good point and to me it really isn't about "1" project. I think the world and this Internet would continue fine tomorrow if the project dies and/or if direct links were taken away. I think it is the fact that more people would be bothered if the change happened in support of using these download enablers over a project that a small percentage of the Internet population use... Maybe I am wrong though, maybe they are more effiecient now and have less drawbacks and support for scripting, etc.. I understand the view against things like this and I think many people in the "free" or GPL world do also.. I am at a loss though, is this costing Crediar money? Sounds like the reason people support this change??!!??!! I thought Google Code hosted for free??

As for being the Authors choice, yes it is his but a minor statement in my opinion taken with such backlash shows true immaturity of people (the same who maybe calling others immature) in my opinion. Yes we all have the "rights" to express our feelings, but jumping on people for these things to me show who the true cowards and or people that "brown nose" maybe. The man had a valid point and if you guys don't think more and more developers taking the leap to these types of file hosting I am sure will see.. I myself see it way more likely government taking down "hosters" than Google taking files "offline."

Last but not least, DM(L) is a great project and I find it useful (probably more than the current competition) but coming from BBS days (16550 baby) to the internet itself has been fun in watching the "children" play... It is what we make it, yes some a playground but the matter to me is the direction we are bringing it and again in my opinion the best thing that has happened in 15+ years has been Linux, GPL and what this has done to greedy people and companies like M$.. I am all for keeping things free on all sides, if people want to make money, create a project that the "corporate" world can sell and go get a suit or keep it all free and stop supporting the companies that are locking things down. That being said - sad Google is starting to lock down so many things they used to support as being "Open". So what do we do, we all rip on someone who see's these things starting to happen in their roots and makes a statement and then gets bullied b/c of it, that is childish to me..

I hope we can take this out of the playground pretty soon, i'm a little too muddy.

So now that I ranted on this ambien induced opinion, I am looking forward to new (DM) and am wondering how Cred is supporting multi-disc and streaming audio. I really like the widescreen hack addition and am extremely anxious for a new release and haven't been this excited since my old BBS days in early 90's (I helped beta test VSMC when it pretty much played SMB only) and been a Nintendo fan since day 1 of consoles (still have all my original Nintendo and boxes in my collection." Things like this are keeping Nintendo exciting, lets keep the politics with them and the fun with us!

Can anyone provide me with information regarding the "PSO I&II hack" that was implemented in DM 2.1? Do I need to do anything to enable it and get it running?

I've ripped my retail PAL disc with my Wii (no compression), and tried to boot it multiple times with the latest WiiFlow build with only the widescreen hack enabled and it always locks up after the DM splash screen.

I've tried converting the ripped iso to fst on my PC via GCReEX, but get the same results.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks guys!

PSO I&II (PAL: GPOP8P) works no problem for me by using DM v2.2+CFG mod r37 beta10.
(All default settings and ISO is no compressed with a memory card in Slot A)

Is your game v1.00 or v1.01? Only v1.01 will work on DIOS MIOS. You also need DM 2.2 as the padhook patch wasn't properly implemented in 2.1

The PAL version is v1.00 (http://www.gametdb.com/Wii/GPOP8P )

No matter I turn on/off PAD HOOK in CFG (with DM2.2), it still works.
Moreover,I found it disabled "PAD HOOK" of DM automatically after game is started.

DIOS MIOS Lite is now available on version 2.2 too

Thanks to Crediar for updating both to the same version.
Hopefully they will now be updated and released at the same time.

Both wads are available on DIOS MIOS google page. (no more on DIOS MIOS lite)


Edit:
Someone got DML2.2 working?
It stops (blackscreen) before the DM logo, no logs on USB gecko.
