Hacking Nintendont

[sion_zaphod]

That is indeed possible, but crediar created that bin so we are just keeping it because it does the job.

Thanks for confirming it is possible. I get the feeling certain other users thought I was off my rocker or didn't understand what I was saying. I only posted because people were babbling on about the autoboot setting. Which I have to say is a little redundant.

Wouldn't it be possible to have both:-
A loader that accepts command line arguments to boot straight into the game specified plus switch on memory card emu and disable the loader screen so all the user sees is the game booting up; not the info screen.
Plus nincfg.bin can still be used by those people that want to know what version of nintendont they are using and all the other info displayed.

The point is how is writing to storage media every time you start a game easier than parsing 1 - 5 command line switches into already existing variables. Presumably nintendont does that when it reads the settings from nincfg.bin (reads the ISO path, memory card settings and all other settings into variables). I see it as being quicker even if only tiny bit. No Read/Write only command line switches.

i press B for change setup to 1 games, after i exit from setup page, why nintendont point the < in the begginning of the game list? that's very strange... if i want change setting to mariokart DD, when i exit i want the < on mariokart DD not on the beginning of the list..

Hello everyone.
Since I managed to run my joystick in Nintendont I've been playing these games:
- Zelda Twilight Princess
- Super Mario Sunshine
- Super Smash Bros. Melee
- Resident Evil Code Veronica X

And so far, none of these games have locked me at all. Everything works exactly as I remember them in the Game Cube except a big problem in the sound in Resident Evil Code Veronica X and Smash Bros. Melee. In both games the sound is very distorted. Only abnormal noises.
The version I have is 1.0 from Nintendont
Does anyone know of a solution?

PS: Sorry if this text is not very consistent but I'm using Google translator. : l

By downloading the latest version of Nintendont, Just change the boot on my SD? When you do this? Do not lose my saved games?

Yes, just download and replace the old boot.dol you have in the SD, and it doesn't affect the saves at all.

Just made some more progress with the auto-cache, may give 1.70 a try, especially in a game like melee.

That's because nintendont doesn't have individual settings for each game, the settings apply to all the games. To do what you want you need to use a loader like loader GX

v1.69 breaks a lot of games for me, Mario Sunshine gets stuck at progressive mode prompt, Kirby Air Ride randomly crashes, Sonic Adventure 2 crashes at mem card selection and many others, all perfectly working with v1.67 and before

I'm still having these problems with 1.70.

 

[skihji]

Got prime working on 1.61 I had some option turned on in the loader menu that messed it up, gonna try 1.70 now, thanks for the help!

 

[EtahnJay144]

'forever', according to the compatibility list.. Mario sunshine has a slow start as well so I guess you just need to be patient

 

[TheJez]

Resident Evil 3 won't boot on 1.70... RE2 boots ok

Not sure if anyone caught this yet http://www.nintendolife.com/news/20...ces_the_gamecube_controller_adapter_for_wii_u but they announced a Wii U GC adapter. I'm hoping nintendont supports this. I'm also hoping you can use this on the PC cause that would be sweet.
