Hacking Nintendont

[GreyWolf]

It happens even when I launch games through Nintendont also. After the unplug and the system has power again, it sees the harddrive again.

How are you launching Nintendont? Through the Homebrew Channel?

 

[Dr.Hacknik]

I like what you did.

Maybe i can add a feature to boot the Gamecubes BIOS, rather than loading it from a ROM.

How are you launching Nintendont? Through the Homebrew Channel?

Yeah, but the same thing happens if I launch games through USB Loader GX. I don't have a channel forwarder for Nintendont at all though.

Have you tried using the CFG USB Loader Mod, that supports Nintendont?

I can try that, but would it matter even if Nintendont being launched alone causes freezes?

yes it does, can you take a picture of your nintendont settings?

Hmmm, does nintendont launch? Make sure your XML file looks like this:

Make sure your version of IOS58 is the latest, just try reinstalling it using Wad Manager or MMM. Download it via NUS Downloader, and pack it as a .wad.

*Cough* IOS58 Wad *Cough*

Nintendont WAD

I've attached the picture of the settings. Is this the screen you wanted to see?

I'll check on the SD card right now to see if my xml matches that. Just to be clear, Nintendont works wonderfully when I launch and play any game, the issue is AFTER quiting out of Nintendont. It seems to break everything, my HDD isn't detected anymore, all the homebrew on my SD card freezes when I try to launch it. I'm so confused on what could be causing this. Also Wii games launch, play, and quit just fine.

Try copying Nintendont (and some Homebrew that Doesn't work) to your HDD, remove your SD Card, and see if said Homebrew works.

EDIT:

You can download my Modded version of Nintendont, and try it if you wish.
It's based off of 4.019.

since you are on wiiu are you using some fake/thrid party wiiu pro? my fake wiiu pro crashes homebrew channel sometimes lol my original one works great also i dont see anything being forced so its most likely some issue on your end on my wiiu nintendont exits just fine maybe its the game you are exiting from? does it happen on all games? or you didnt tried manny games?

I'm using Nintendont on my Wii (Currently), and i've had no issues when it comes to launching other Homebrew, my Wii is even Modded to the Max

I tried running homebrew from HDD with no SD card in, quiting out of Nintedont froze just like it did before. I will try your version right now!

I only have authentic controllers, and the issue happens on every single game I've tried. 10+ games.

seems to be an issue with your usb then try putting an iso in the sd card and nintendont also and exit using the sd card or some other usb device if it doesnt crash then its the usb fault remenber the wiiu usb power output is crap.

It still crashes and acts the same with no HDD connected.

Do you have any External Homebrew installed? Such as cIOS', Mods, etc?

I followed that guide exactly, so I think its 3 cIOS, and one mod? I've also been posting in that thread to see if anyone has any idea of what is going on.

modded homebrew channel is a no go, nintendont and modded homebrew channels dont get along.

Great, did you Dump your NAND before any Significant modifications? If so, restore it.

 

[n00dz]

I just tried launching it through the unmodded homebrew channel and it still froze? Should I uninstall the modded one completely?

I did all the backup stuff that guide recommended.

Yes, they may be interfering with each other.

It may have been something you did, just restore that NAND Dump.
