I like the clean look of these forwarders so I've replaced all my existing forwarders with the v11 2nd edition ones. I had a problem with Hugo GX causing a code dump on exit so I used the SF 2nd edition version which solved the problem.
I see from an earlier post that you have some updates available. Hopefully this will include Gnuboy GX as I prefer to play my Gameboy games through this emulator rather than Vbagx. The only other emulator you don't appear to have covered is Fuse but from what I've read it's not possible to make a forwarder for this emulator anyway ?. Thanks for your hard work in particular forwarders for Wiituka & Dosbox which I didn't have previously. :)

Awesome work shoes - nice to have all my forwarders themed.

Only issue is Scummvm - it dumps out to code - but not your standard wii code dump. Pic I took was crappy, so will just type it below:-

Code:
startup as 
chdir to default
assertation "_heapsize" failed: file "/home/andre/devel/scummvm/scummvm-1.3.1/backends/plugins/elf/memory-manager.cpp", line 84, function: void ELFMemoryManager::allocateHeap()
Abort called.
ScummVM exited abnormally (-127).
Press any key to continue.

Anybody else having any issues?

Thanks Category, I actually already have a fix for that, i tried to put it up yesterday, but due to the new board video limit it will not let me update my pages unless I remove all the videos. I'll pm you a link to it. Thanks for reporting the issue though!

Edit: Figured I'll post the fix here. Here's a link to ScummVM v11b 2nd Edition: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=9GU6O99V

Also, got a forwarder finished for UAE (Amiga). But I don't know when I'll be able to put it up here :(

And Recnal.. I'll work on a gnuboy forwarder for you when I get time. I messed around with FUSE with all the new sources, and everyone code dumped on exiting the app. If I can find a source that works I'll put one together for that too.

I've just tried the newly made scummvm forwarder and it still doesnt see the usb drive. tried both the neogeo forwarders, both give me a stack dump on loading (using the latest release with sdhc support)

Hmm... They are all working on my system, I've had others say the new ScummVM forwarder is working great (Are you using version 1.3.1?). I'll have to look into it. As for neogeo, you may have a different version than me as well. i'll pm you a link to an updated forwarder, lemme know if it works for you.

yes using scummvm 1.3.1 works fine from usb using homebrew, it does work ok just doesnt see usb so cant load the games unless i transfer them to sd card. Everything else on my Wii works fine with USB even the old forwarder i used to use was fine

Okay, so it loads the app fine, but can't access roms on the usb right? I wonder why i don't have this issue, but I'll try to put another one together (I'll try the no_arguments version) and send you a link. Check your messages too, i sent you some stuff for gxgeo. Also, if that doesn't work, is your app on SD? If so, i can make a simple forwarder and send you that.

Most Recent Updates:

Update 11/03/11 - Well, I'd been sitting on a few updates for awhile, but was holding off to see if this 5 video limit would be fixed. And.... It wasn't. So I removed all but 5 video's so I could update the page. Most are viewable in the "Collection" video, but if you want to see more individual vids, follow one of these Video's to my Youtube page, where you can see everything i've put up. Updates Listed here from 10/07/11 to present are all new to this site. I also have forwarders for Hatari, Fuse, and OpenBOR finished, but cannot find a forwarding source that doesn't crash upon exiting the app. If I can find a good source for these, I'll have 3 more to add to the collection!

Update 10/12/11 - Updated ScummVM and GxGeo v1&2 to the v11b no_arguments source. A few people were having issues with former versions, and this has resolved them. Also, I updated the all-inclusive .rar file today, so everything is up-to-date!

Update 10/10/11 - Added a GnuBoy forwarder to the "Handheld Emulators" section. Video of the new forwarder will be added soon, and I have not yet updated the all-inclusive .rar file. I will post here when I do. EDIT - Vids are up for Gnuboy and UAE Amiga.

Update 10/09/11 - Added an Amiga forwarder to the "Computer Emulators" section. Also, I realized that I gave WiiSX the incorrect title ID for WiiTDB, so I corrected that. Video of the new forwarder will be added soon, and I have not yet updated the all-inclusive .rar file. I will post here when I do.


10-07-11b - Got ScummVM working with the newest v11b forwarding source. Link and info has been updated, and the all-inclusive .rar file has been updated and is current with everything on this page.

10-07-11 - Got WiiEngine working with the v11 dollz_only source (Thanks Fix94!), so I got rid of the Simple Forwarder and Channel. Updated the individual link, but not the all-inclusive .rar file yet. Will update here when i do

I modded another Wii today and used a few of these awesome channels. I love the graphics, they're really accurate of what they represent. I did notice that the music to the Snes/NES/GBA/Atari Channels & Sega Genesis all seemed rather dark. Is there a way to perhaps add sound that is (an idea only) from whatever happened to be the most popular games of the given console? Most of those games mostly had upbeat and happy-ish music. Other than that though, your channels are a 10!

I also noticed that the Sega Genesis channel crashes when I tried to launch the emulator.

I'm not a n00b when it comes to modding Wii's as I have managed to mod around 45 or so with a 100% success rate thus far. Thank you so much for your awesome channels, I really do appreciate them :)
