Hacking DIOS MIOS (Lite)

[smf]

So I just hope NTFS formatted USB drives work on future versions of Dios Mio.

Why would you think there is even a chance of that happening? People running NTFS have been warned for ages that it won't be supported.

Some games I've tested work but most green screen on USB Loader GX, DSI Error on Dios Mios Booter and Black Screen/Green Screen on CFG USB Loader

 

[Catastrophic]

I got DIOS MIOS to work with USB Loader GX, I tried playing Fire Emblem Path of Radiance and Simpsons Hit and Run...

Fire Emblem: Works, but loading isn't as fast compared to disk so music is sometimes delayed(could be my HDD)

Simpsons: Boots up and works which is great because I couldn't get past the loading screen using disks. I did notice a few framerate gitters which I'm not sure is normal(again, could be my HDD but I doubt it.)

I'm sure compatibility will improve over time.

That dsi errors seem to be related to using component cables...

Weird. I use component cables and never got a code dump.

So the originally planned DIOS MIOS has finally been released huh? Im still using a WBFS formatted hard drive as I find no reason to format to FAT32 as of yet.

Do the Loaders like GX and CFG support the original DM

There's a converter. Don't be an asshole, is the most useless format that ever existed. You can't store your data, and, obviously you can't play GC games.

Dude WBFS is USELESS as the hard drive format. fat32 u can do anything on it. Put programs, movies, homebrew apps and plus wii and gamecube games. Even a guide:

'Nuff said.




We should just deprecate (or drop) WBFS support altogether, but whatever.

Finally got round to testing DIOS MIOS through WiiFlow r505 (after a full day of Disney movies), and can report that it worked great first time. Many thanks Crediar, and the WiiFlow team. Now to find a use for this 32GB memory card (which isn't compatible with newer revisions of DML anyway)

Put a crapload of music and video files on it...?

 

[darknessgp]

Does anyoe have a copy of the wad or a mirror for it. Seems crediar took down the wad file, and looks like he made a commit, so I'm guessing he's updating it with a new build... but it would still be nice to have the old wad for those impatient like myself.

Hmmm, that actually already describes my HDD

Why not just wait until he uploaded it?

Btw the ChangeLog is already up:

(2012-06-24):

• Added EHCI retry code, which should fix a few more USB devices that weren't working before.
• Fixed a DSI crash when using the progressive mode.

especially the second one makes me believe I could now get all those games that crashed to work (80%)

Now, if there was only a way to force-enable 240p games to run (such as the Mega Man X collection) without using hideous composite video cables on non-CRT TVs...

No NTFS? Sorry I haven't been keeping with announcements, why isn't it going to be supported?

 

[Excelsiior]

Because there's only 96kb (acutally 64kb) space for DM respectively DML. The NTFS library is just too FAT (lol).

yea... I didn't see the changelog. Knowing that it will have better support definitely makes it worth waiting for... just frustrating to try to get it, see it's not available, and then find with google searches, that it seems no one has mirrored it anywhere.

Thank you for putting that up... now I can play with it while waiting for the latest release!

Hi! I've installed DML but after that my retail GC games stopped working, so I want to uninstall it. I've uninstalled the DML wad, but it hasn't fixed anything (it now shows black screen and freezes right after i press "Play", before uninstalling it has also been showing GC-Loader). Is there any way to uninstall it without restoring my NAND backup? Thanks in advance for replies.
