I tested the update feature, I didn't get the server error message.
Though, when launching nintendont it still display v1.127, but the date/time detection in the loader is correct (maybe Fix just forgot to recompile with the version number before commit).
well I reformatted my sd card it still gives the same error and the strange thing is now my other sd card is doing the same thing and it did work
 
Well it turns out the Magic Joy Box 3 in 1 Magic Joy Box DOES work with the ps controller port too. Don't feel like testing xbox right now.
 
I made a batch that lets you fullsize your iso from GCReEx|DiscEx format:

-place fullsize_iso.bat , gcit fstfix in your games folder
-usage : fullsize_iso.bat name_folder
where name_folder has no space.
It will make the fullsize iso named game_fullsize.iso in name_folder.

Ex :
fullsize_iso.bat MARIOSUPERSTARBASEBALL

audiostreaming games will work .



I know this probably isn't the right place for this but it's the only place throughout all my searching that I found was close to what I am looking for. I'm referring to the post above which was posted a few days ago about batch scripts. I don't know anything about creating a batch script but from messing around with one I found for another program I was able to create this for DiscEx v0.9.

Code:
[USER=325063]Echo[/USER] off
 
set isodir=.\zzz
set converter=.\discex.exe
 
if NOT exist "%isodir%" (
  echo "ERROR directory doesn't exist"
  goto :EOF
)
 
 
FOR /F "tokens=1 delims=." %%A IN ('dir /b "%isodir%"') DO (
  echo converting: %%A
  "%converter%" "%isodir%\%%A.iso"
)

What this does is take all .iso files in the folder named zzz and names them game.iso and puts them in a folder with their game ID. The reason why I made the iso folder zzz is so that it would be at the bottom after it created all the other gameID folders making it easier to find. But you can edit it to point to any folder you wish.

The other batch script I made was for gcit (GameCube ISO Tool). It's essentially the same script with a few minor changes.

Code:
[USER=325063]Echo[/USER] off
 
set isodir=.\zzz
set converter=.\gcit.exe
 
if NOT exist "%isodir%" (
  echo "ERROR directory doesn't exist"
  goto :EOF
)
 
 
FOR /F "tokens=1 delims=." %%A IN ('dir /b "%isodir%"') DO (
  echo converting: %%A
  "%converter%" "%isodir%\%%A.iso" -f discex -q
)

This one again takes the .iso files from the folder named zzz and names them game.iso but it also compresses them and puts them in a folder with their game and and gameID (ex. Crazy Taxi [GCTE51]). The game folders will be located in another folder labeled out.iso.

I hope these scripts help someone out (I tried uploading them to this post but I kept getting an error saying that it didn't like the .cmd extention so I hope the code tags work instead). Now I was wondering if someone would be able to help me. I would like to have all my games uncompressed but also in the folders of game name and gameID. Having the folders with just the gameID is messy and is difficult to see which games I have when I plug my USB drive into a computer but I like that the games are all uncompressed. Using my second script to have it game name and gameID is a lot more pleasant for me to look at but no matter what I try the games are always compressed. I've been messing around trying to somehow combine the 2 to ultimately get what I want but to no avail because like I said I really have no idea what I am doing. I'm actually pretty proud of myself that I was able to get this far. So if anyone has any advice for me I'd really appreciate it.

Edit: I can't figure out how to stop the "at sign"echo off in the code tag to stop linking to some member on these forums named Echo. If someone knows how to fix this let me know and I will update the code tag to the script will actually work when cut and pasted.

Try "Preview..."
Then in upper right hand side of box: Select "AA"(Use BB Code Editor)

Edit:for some reason it works in Preview but not after edit. I added a "/" before. I'll check XenForo and see.
 
Could someone please help me?
When i start a game from wiiflow it just takes me to Nintendont but it doesnt load the game, i dont know what to do

Option 1) Choose SD/USB in Nintendont screen, then look for your game in the list, use B to change the settings and back again, then load the game.

Option 2) Change the Autoboot settings for Nintendont in Wiiflow settings before choosing your game. Or load nintendont, enable autoboot in the settings, then exit and use wiiflow to choose your games.
 
I don't know :p
You can from USBLoaderGX 1229 in my signature (*advertising*)


Adeka:
I added it.
I guess that adapter doesn't work with Xbox360 controllers? my friend have one, so it would have been great.
It works with PS1/PS2/XBOX controllers on Nintendont too, or only with a GameCube controller?
GC controller supports analog?
what ios version should i use? im using wii family..
 
I just tested Mario Superstar Baseball with DMToolBox 32k aligned optimized. Still same error here, loud buzzing noise when coming up to bat.

BTW 1.128 says 1.127 at top of the screen when loading a game. I just replaced it to be absolutely sure.

Edit: Tried minigame mode too just for giggles, same error, freezes with loud MEEEHHHHH when starting. FML!

Nintendont uses ios58, as long as it's the right version you don't have to do anything. ONLY if you get an error when loading nintendont, you'll have to get latest ios58 with nusdownloader.

So the ios for LoaderGX depends on your own preferences, mostly.

Thanks for your fast reply, I choosed the second option but i have a problem, i selected autoboot on nintendont but when i start a game from Wiiflow it happens the same as i said before and the options are restored.

Are you sure you're using the latest nintendont rev? Maybe the settings aren't stored unless you load a game, so try loading nintendont, enable autoboot, memory card, hid (unless you use GC controller), whatever else you use, and then load a game. Wait until it's loaded and then press the Select button (if it's a HID controller) or the buttons combo in the first post to "reset"; that will exit nintendont and take you back to HBC or wiiflow, depending on where you loaded nintendont from. After you've done that, try again from within Wiiflow, it should have the settings.

If there still aren't settings there, then you might need to look around wiiflow own settings to see where the GC emulation settings are, and change them there. Edit: actually, you should try reading fix94 post first, and then this lol.

Right away?Or did you play for a bit?It froze for me when coming up to bat,right after now loading or in the middle of the game...I was able to play a 3 inning and a 5 inning game fully it froze in the middle of the next game.I am using a full iso no trim or compress r128 on a 16gb flash drive.
 
Good news and bad News, i used the last revision that Fix94 posted and the game was booting but without the configuration that i have so i turned off my wii and started the game again but now im getting an error that Says: Dsi Exception ocurred, any ideas?
 
Can anyone explain me why this autoboot option of Nintendont? Sorry if it's a noob question :P Thank you!

Because if you either load the game from a loader, or play the same game all the time, chances are you'd rather skip the game list inside nintendont. So autoboot does that, it skips the list so if you choose a game in LoaderGX, Wiiflow, etc, you don't need to choose it again, it loads up the game directly. If you had it enabled and load nintendont from the HBC, you'll load the last game you played, skipping the list; though you can always press B to cancel the autoboot.

Try deleting nincfg.bin in the root of your device/s and then make sure your settings are as you want them to be. Then try loading the game again.

I did that and the game worked again but when i make a new nincfg.bin with nintendont and the Dsi error happens again and if i press B while the game is booting with wiiflow the error happens again

I think i only can fix this if i modify the gamecube settings on wiiflow, Does anyone knows where they are?
