First, thanks for the dols! =)

The Scummvm and Genesis Channel are working nicely!
By all the others i am getting a Code dump. =/

EDIT: smsplus works fine, too.
Only the new Versions of nes, snes and vba giving me a code dump.
I tried the 005 Version of SnesGX and it worked fine.
Here are some Dol-Forewarded Channel for SMS, Genesis and ScummVM (made by Paradox):

Update:
Elf/Dol Forwarder 0.2.1 released. It fixes the bug with the white spaces in the path in the config file. Now it doesn't matter if there are any white spaces/empty lines after the path or not

Banjosancho, I will do some testing to find out what the problem is and report back.
Edit: Do you have Preview pics for the channels you compiled?
 
is there an alternative link for the Blue-k Geexbox channel (in the first post) ... that link gives a rapidshare error.
 
Ok I tested:

Snes = works with 006, not with 007
Fceugx = code dump
Genesis = code dump
Vbagx = works with 1.04, not with 1.05
Scummvm = works

I don't understand why genesis and nes aren't working for me.

EDIT: I tried your sega genesis channel Banjosancho and I'm still getting code dump..... but If I load the boot.dol file from HBC8 I don't have any problems...... same with fceugx 2.06.

I've spent 3 hours trying to make everything works but I just get so many code dumps....... I think either I'm doing something wrong or the dol forwarder is just not ready yet.

latest versions need editing to be able to work as channels as they have new save location so it will code dump....been worked on.

In that case it's not an issue of the Dol Forwarder. What do you mean by save location? What needs to be edited?

Banjosancho, in that case I suggest you upload the other wads, seeing that they should work when the emus are updated again according to djdynamite.

I will add your already uploaded wads to the list in the first post. And thanks for the GeeXboX uploads

OK, so we'll have to wait for new versions so they can work in wads.

Anyone knows where I can get the latest compiled libogc? I need to add SDHC-support to the Forwarders.
 
Could someone please mirror the softchip forwarder dol?

SpaceJump:
Can I request for
Dragon Media Player - loads dol from apps\DMP\boot.dol
FTPii - loads dol from apps\FTPii\boot.dol
Mplayer (twiizer edition) - loads dol from apps\MPlayer\boot.dol

Again, thanks everyone, this project is great!
It's particularly useful for those large homebrew such as Mplayer and ScummVM

That will code dump when you quite though, stupid tosser of an author hasn't included the full source, not even partial, you go to edit the source and try compiling, them ban you need more libraries and binaries. noway of getting in touch aswell.

QUOTEMplayer (twiizer edition) - loads dol from apps\MPlayer\boot.dol
this has the full source doesn't it? you can edit it so it restarts, then it wont code dump
 
SpaceJump .... Glad to see your project is coming along nicely...It's a great app... Always looking here to see what's happening

I replaced the download link with a Mediafire link. I will do so with all other downloads as RS sucks...

Can we still expect an Elf/Dol Forwarder banner from you?

But with the forwarder, these emulators aren't on the wads anymore.... they're executed from the HBC (basically).

It doesn't matter how they are forwarded, soon as you forward and locate the .dol of the new snes, nes, vba you will get a code dump, because of the new build, only way is if you edit the source!

Do you have a source for these issues?

Update:
- All downloads moved to Megashare
- On request of OSW added the following DolForwarder specific versions: DMP, FTPii and MPlayer Twiizer Version
- I made a SDHC version of the MPlayerWii DolForwarder, but I have no SDHC-card to test it. Can anyone test it on a SDHC-card and report back: Download MPlayerWii Forwarder SDHC Test

Be sure to upload your injected wads
