Hacking neek2o

[guinness]

Happy days. The overlay menu now works, even though I didn't change anything. Only one problem left now, cannot get JoyFlow to run. It appears to load, but then locks up in the Wii/Joy Flow thing with the dots underneath.

 

[lepicane]

Third time lucky, got JoYflow 2.3 and r57 to work (covers downloaded and all).

Issue, when I tried to load a game (Tintin as is the only game I use neek2o for), I got a blue screen with white letters saying "Error #002....take disc out etc.??? Had this error with 2.3 and r56 yesterday as well.

After a hard reset the game appears in the disc channel and can be loaded through JoYflow, however, the save game data got corrupted and disappeared.

EDIT: Sorry to keep harping on about this, it's just that I had no problems whatsoever with 2.2 and r04 (I can always go back to this if issues continue).

First of all Thanks to the devs for continuing working with sneek through this new project.
I think I've never used my real nand in my life because I always use uneek as I'm a great fan of the project's concept.

Today I decided to give neek2o a shot and everything works fine except when I try to use an internet connection I get:
Wii Error Code 110213

My traditional uneek di nand (not neek2o) never gave this error.
I'm using the Uneek Di (neek2o) format.

--Update: If I create a nand image with bootmii it works.
If I create a nand image with Giantpune program it works.
If I create a nand image with modmii it does NOT works.

ModMii links updated to rev58

Changelog:

- The modules will now force to use the internet connection even if the connection test fails (Issue with ModMii made EU nands and maybe others aswell)
- Fixed stability and freezing issues

Which solved the last of the issues I was having.

Many thanks to all the devs past and present who made all of this possible.

Edit: I knew it was too good to last. Entering Priiloader settings or system hacks gives me a blank white screen with no options. Help!!!

@MLRX
At startup of the neek2o system, diconfig.bin is checked and rebuild. (the last thing only if it doesn't exist or if the auto rebuild flag is set and the number of games has changed.)
Upon the rebuild, the system takes the first game in the list and informs the system menu that a disc is loaded. The system menu will load and show the disc animation of the game.

If something goes wrong during this steps, the system menu might freeze with a black screen.

I moved A Boy and his Blob to a different folder and that fixed it. Thank you.

did anybody else get on rare occasions that neek2o boots into standby mode? and you can't turn your wii on from there but you have to turn your wii off.
or sometimes i end up in a black screen when i return to the system menu from a game.

Could this be due to a harddisk spindown issue?
Is neek2o supposed to boot directly to the system menu, or are you using postloader?
What revision of neek2o are you using for the moment?

 

[PizzaPino]

my harddisk doesnt have a spindown, i think.
neek2o is booting directly to the system menu and im using rev58. but i noticed this already on earlier revisions. but it's only happening sometimes and not always.
note: udelay of 3seconds before usb mounting.

 

[obcd]

Maybe it will be better to place that delay somewhere else.
I am working on something. As soon as something usefull comes out, I will inform you.

Hi all

I may be missing something, but I'd appreciate some help. I have neek2o working with the 4.3U NAND I created with ModMii, but I would like to be able to use my actually NAND dump. I have done a bootmii dump and extracted it to the nands folder, removing priiloader from the dump. When I bring up the menu with (1), and press (+), I can see that it is using the 4.3U dump, but it doesn't allow me to change to 4.2Udump. I assume you scroll down to that line, and press the left and right d-pad. Also, what is the best way to migrate my save games if I can't get my actual NAND dump to work (especially RB3 and mario Kart, since these are the few games we still play)?

Thanks

delete the nandcfg.bin from your usb:/sneek folder.
The first time you boot into neek, it should recreate that file and detect both your nands in the nands folder.
It's only created if it doesn't exist.

 

[drmarvin]

Perfect. I'll have to try that.

Thanks

I think I've never used my real nand in my life because I always use uneek as I'm a great fan of the project's concept.

If I create a nand image with modmii it does NOT works.

I've noticed this, too. It seems to have something to do with ModMii not creating an expanded NAND. I haven't tried this, but put the ModMii created NAND in your USB root directory (like you normally would with UNEEK) and see if NEEK2O expands it. If it does, move it to your NANDS folder and you should be good to go.

The latest rev. 58 is having a fix for network problems. Not sure if we are talking about the same problem here.
I also remember someone saying he had to copy some modules from his real nand backup to the modmii nand.
I also think you need at least one official ninty channel that uses the internet. Some networking modules are probably
missing from the modmii nand without such channel.
I haven't tested any of this myself yet. It are just basically the things I would try out first.

 

[OverjoY]

Yes correct.. rev58 should fix the internet connection (test will fail, but internet works)

neek2o guys, I continue to have problems on diconfig.bin creation. Some time hang, some time complete succesfully without problems with the same set of files. My preferred naming convention is [game id].wbfs.

I'm really thinking to integrate diconfig.bin creation in postloader, to bypass "di" module.

EDIT: sometime it hang. And on next boot I have 0 size diconfig.bin. Other time it doesn't hang but no diconfig.bin will be created.
EDIT2: I'm starting to love neek2o environment

 

[goku1980]

so just to be safe i spread 77 wads over 7 nands (11 each nand w full system menu setup ) and for my largest nand is 501mb. its load time ruffly 20 sec.

 

[obcd]

What revision of neek2o are you using for the moment?
Is it only the creation of diconfig.bin that goes wrong?
So basically, with the same set of files, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't?

Sorry if this has been asked, but when will we get the tutorial?
