just follow the steps on triforce-iso-extract and after that open the new .bin it creates in gc-tool, extract the segaboot.img1 and rename it to segaboot.bin.
It turns out I was missing chdman ^^; now it's working, thanks.

Edit: It gave me a file called "FACTORYCHECKGC.bin" instead, should I name it "segaboot.bin"?

Edit 2: Nevermind, I extracted "FACTORYCHECKGC.bin" with gcit and found "segaboot.img1" so now I rename it to "segaboot.bin" and it should work, thank you, it's been a while since I ripped the first bios so I'm a little rusty with using riforce-iso-extract.

Nintendont doesn't run Wii games, only Gamecube and Triforce.
thats not what he said... he said both nintendont and wii games need stuff only available in BC mode since they run natively or in nintendont case semi natible in BC mode, wii games on wiiu e shop even tough they are selected on the wiiu menu they dont run in wiiu mode they just restart vwii mode and auto boot the title so yeah nintendont on wiiu mode is very and i mean very unlikely.

Thank you, but try not to be so aggro when defending me, it kills my rep more than I already have. Hell, don't defend me.

I'm still thinking a combination of wii u iosu or at least kernel and some deep end wii shit - maybe not even the wii u shit who knows - could allow for dolphin netplay esque online, mostly bc im desparate for a way to play online sdr/online kar without a computer

I'm still not accepting that it isn't possible. That probably would have been said about gamecube on wii before nintendon't came about. I'm pretty sure all the other gamecube loaders for wii still reboot it into GC mode. Nintendon't is the one that still runs in wii mode.

Among other things, the Wii U mode GPU interface is completely different.
  • Wii's GPU is just an overclocked version of the GameCube GPU.
  • Wii U's GPU is a Radeon R600, which has a completely different register interface. (Wii compatibility is handled using some other mechanism that I'm not sure about, but I'm fairly certain that it isn't usable in Wii U mode.)
So even if the code could run in Wii U mode, you wouldn't get very far with video rendering.

no one said that its impossible but the wii is just an overclocked GC thats why it was able to run in wii mode while the wiiu uses a totaly diferent setup specialy for graphics and shit, well its much more feasible that we can make vwii run with wiiu clock speed and ram rather than getting nintendont into wiiu mode.Alos what would you gain in having nintendont in wiiu mode that you dont on vwii mode? if we ever get iosu we can free vwii and it will give everything we ever needed to vwii nintendont in terms of power and memory and probably gamepad acess.

permissions are not the issue for netplay you could even have all the wiiu locks and shit but it wouldnt work, the wii/wiiu wlan is awfull so even in wiiu mode you dont get enough speed to even get that working, games would desync in seconds, people keep forgetting that a console internet speed is milles slower than a pc one.

If we get IOSU exploit, we have access to cafe2wii, and we can patch cafe2wii to not disable some things (like extra memory, gx and gx2 access at the same time, no under-clocking of ARM and PPC, etc)

that's what you mean by "Wii U mode"? Or do you mean with just kernel exploit, using the native CafeOS only kernel exploit? I don't think that's possible because we don't have access to GX in CafeOS and Nintendont usually runs on the ARM processor, which we don't have access to without IOSU exploit.

Isn't the GameCube's, Wii's and Wii U's CPU a PowerPC CPU?

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Will you give me mouth to mouth oxygen if my throat closes?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Nah the air can do that
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Ask @x65943 he's trained for that stuff
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Kissing random dudes choking in celery? Really? Need to study for that?
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yes it requires a degree
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    I could also yank out the rest of my teeth but theirs professionals for that
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    "Just kiss me Kyle." And I thought all the godreborn gay stuff was a smear campaign
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    If I die, tell my momma I won't be carrying Baby Jesus this christmas :sad::cry:

    Sweet found my Wii u PSU right after I ordered a new one :tpi:
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It was waiting for you to order another one.
    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    It literally turns it on.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Yeah power supplies are filthy perverts
