Hacking Nintendont Themes and Custom Mods

Maxternal · Nov 29, 2014

in case anyone was wondering about that modded libFAT
http://gbatemp.net/threads/ustealth-compatible-libfat-mod.365714/

And there were a lot of logos on this thread
http://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendont-looking-for-a-logo.353275/
of which I will make a special mention of the ones I cooked up

Ok, after 3 days fighting with devkitPro and libfat xD, I finally got the thing compiled with both, USB controllers and UStealth support.

This is just a static background that only display the nintendont version, and system (Wii/Wii U), I like to keep it simple because it last only a few seconds between the USBloader and the app itself. It "should" indicate problems, exceptions, errors in maroon color, I haven't tested it deeper, I haven't experienced any exception so far.

IMPORTANT: I did this mod to use ONLY with USB loaders, you can't use it directly through HBC because there's not GUI to access, all the options are loaded by the USB Loader beforehand. So far I only tested it with USBLoaderGX, it should work with other loaders too.

Thanks goes to:

so the ustealth libfat mod zipped file has many folders, I believe you only copied the libogc folder didn't you? did you replace any files in nintendont folder too?

yep, only the libogc one, I didn't change anything in nintendont folder, just the main.c and menu, but only to edit text.

If you use this and enable SCREENSHOT in global.h, it will take a screenshot (native resolution) when STATUS_LOADING reaches 8. You can move the code I added around, but make sure it's after STATUS_LOADING reaches 3, and before GRRLIB_Render().

Code:

PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 50*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "||||||||||||||||||");
UpdateScreen();
bool screenshot_taken = false;
while(1)
{
    DCInvalidateRange( (void*)0x90004100, 0x20 );
    if( STATUS_LOADING == 0xdeadbeef )
        break;
 
    PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 50*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "||||||||||||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING == 0)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 90*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING > 0 && STATUS_LOADING < 20)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 110*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING == 2)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 130*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING > 2 && STATUS_LOADING < 20)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 150*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING == 3)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 170*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING > 3 && STATUS_LOADING < 20)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 190*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING == 4)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 210*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING > 4 && STATUS_LOADING < 20)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 230*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");

        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 270*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING == 6)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 290*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");
    if(STATUS_LOADING > 6 && STATUS_LOADING < 20)
        PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, 0xFFFFFF00, MENU_POS_X + 310*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "|||||||||");

GRRLIB_Render();

thanks...'ll try it now
where should be the default loading folder if I use wiiflow on SD with nintendont's boot.dol in apps folder?

AbdallahTerro · Nov 30, 2014

something is wrong..
I'm losing wiimote sync as soon as loading bar appears and I can't press the +/- combo
also no screenshot.png is found in sd root or apps folder

JoostinOnline · Nov 30, 2014

It should be the root of whatever drive you're loading the game from.

You don't need to press + and -. It's automatic. I'll try it out later though.

I don't know why, but it's not working. The device should be mounted, but fopen still fails.

are you getting: "Screenshot function disabled" or "Screenshot taken" or "Screenshot failed"?

Screenshot failled. I traced it back to fopen in pngu.

AbdallahTerro · Dec 1, 2014

no biggie as long as you are on the right track, I commented the screenshot stuff for now

Just add this to 255.

Code:

#ifdef SCREENSHOT
GRRLIB_DrawImg(0, 0, background, 0, 1, 1, 0xFFFFFFFF);
PrintFormat(22, WHITE, MENU_POS_X + 50*1, MENU_POS_Y + 50*1, "Nintendont Loader v%d.%d (%s)", NIN_VERSION>>16, NIN_VERSION&0xFFFF, IsWiiU() ? "Wii U" : "Wii");
PrintFormat(14, WHITE, MENU_POS_X + 200*1, MENU_POS_Y + 40*2, "Custom Nunchuck Mod by Abz");
/*Whatever other text you want to show up*/
PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, WHITE, MENU_POS_X + 50*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||");
// Double because sometimes the screenshot removes a pixel from last thing drawn
PrintFormat(DEFAULT_SIZE, WHITE, MENU_POS_X + 50*1, MENU_POS_Y + 20*19, "||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||");
GRRLIB_ScrShot("LoadingScreenshot.png");
GRRLIB_DrawImg(0, 0, background, 0, 1, 1, 0xFFFFFFFF);
#endif

You'll get this:

It will never actually show up on the screen.

AbdallahTerro · Dec 1, 2014

the cube looks even more hypnotizing now

'll try now thanks Joo'

GRRLIB_DrawImg(0, 0, background, 0, 1, 1, 0xFFFFFFFF);
#endif

It will never actually show up on the screen.

No luck so far though I added the code to main.c line 255 and uncommented SCREENSHOT in global.h
do I need any other code?

LoadingScreenshot.png doesn't show up in the launch directory?
