I remember when I first added and booted with BIOS, I wasn't using native controller, just wiimote, and got stuck at first boot in gamecube bios, as it asked me to set time and I was unable to do that until I plugged in gamecube controller. So there is a chance that I set time incorrectly and difference is stored somewhere as "bias" and added as "if(CONF_GetCounterBias(&bias) >= 0)" ?

I think the bias is just for timezones. RTCs are generally universal time. Unless maybe it's adding/subtracting too many hours? :P

Hi everyone

After some bizarre error on Nintendont,I pulled off my HDD and DualShock 3...
So now Nintendont is giving me this error and freezes after I connect the HDD and DualShock:
"nand sector size -1"

When I play with the HDD + Wiimote and Nunchuck the app runs smoothly.
The error is only showing when I try with the DS3...

Thanks and sorry for my bad english

try switching the usb ports order also try deleting your ninconfig file and controller ini.


I checked and yes the PID and VID match the nintendont ini file. I do not have any gamecube controllers plugged into the wii.

This is what it looks like in HID test but I'm not sure what this means. When it shows the 7F clearly analog on the controller is off, when it looks distorted analog is on. The values change when buttons are pressed, but they appear distorted.

Edit: To add, this controller and adaptor worked a long time ago but they suddenly stopped working at some point.
tbh no idea why it doesnt work then i dont have the adapter so i cant say why, if it worked before my last sugestion would be to try older revs until it works.

I recently got a GC mic and Nintendont doesn't seem to like doing much with it inserted. File I/O hangs even on the Nintendont menu with it inserted and while it works in-game, I sometimes have to remove it again to make the game load at times. Resetting also requires that it be removed.

Also, looks like first party memcards don't work in the IPL?

I use USBLoaderGX r1260 and Nintendont 3.382 along with a 4TB hard drive (that has other stuff on it of course), the Wii U gamecube adapter and two wavebirds. I have never encountered such an issue. It always works...with every game.

Hi, everything works fine with Nintendont (v.3.386) for me, except for one thing, i'm able to save with all triiforce games (MKAGP,MKAGP2, F-Zero AX) except Virtua Striker 4 v 2006.
I use a Real memory card except for these games that obviously use the emulation (for single Game, not the "multi" option, max block 256). It seems to not recognize the mcemu, then i everytime lose my progress after the first match, no matter if i win or lose, and i have a message on the bottom left of the screen that says that i cannot use the card.

Any ideas?

it was already stated that ipl 1.2 is needed each ipl has diferent unlock codes and aparently only ipl 1.2 works with real memory cards.Also yeah the mic is abit wierd you should just plug it ingame.

Virtua striker has no memory card coded in, crediar on quadforce never coded triforce memory card thats why it doesnt save it was never coded in.

I'm pretty sure that Virtua Striker 4 has a memory card coded, because during the game it says in the bottom left of the screen "card not accepted temporally", and with all the other triiforce games i'm able to save emulating the real arcade cards using MCEMU (for single game, not multi) block size 256.

IPL versions besides 1.0 don't really seem to exist on the internet and I do have a late DOL-101 GameCube but no method of dumping it currently. And I know for a fact that my IPL 1.0 DOL-001 supports my first party memory card. I find it odd that only the most difficult to obtain IPL is the only one that works. I also tried the Panasonic Q IPL with no luck.

    Hello
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
