Hacking Nintendont

Thank you thank you!! A quick question comes in: could we reuse the old 16 mb raw file with multiple saves on it? I still have this one on my sd card.

The format should be the same as the old ones. It's now looking for /saves/ninmem.raw if Memcard is set to MULTI.

v1.35
Add support for multiple saves in a single memory card file.
Add support for selecting memcard size.
Prevent disc reads beyond the end of the buffer.
Check for controller.ini.ini if can't find correct file.

I recommend backing up any memory card files you care about before using this version until it gets some mileage.

Edit:
Also, do not change the memory card size once you've created a file. Bad things can happen. Should probably put some size checking into the code.

Edit2:
Larger memory card sizes mean smaller amounts of memory available for Cache.

Multiple saves? Does this mean I can select Slot B or A when playing a game? If so, finally yes! I can do Sims Bustin' out co op campaign with my sister. If not, all is fine~ neat update regardless.

edit: Blah re read "single memory card" I feel rather dumb for even asking that.

Ok thank you ! I was expecting something like this

Wait...
When the hell did revision 134 got up?!
I was not aware of it!

Also, there is no log for r134 O.O

One question to GreyRogue...
Does multiple saves in one memory card mean that we can have ALL the saves in just one .raw file?
Or are they all still separated by one game per game ID?

It was a test upload of a boot.dol from 1.133, but google code is acting strangely since some days. Because some people can't download the loader.dol from the latest revision.

Hang on a second!

nintendont loader it's the loader.dol? or boot.dol?

loader.dol: https://code.google.com/p/nintendon-t/source/browse/trunk/loader/loader.dol?spec=svn135&r=135
boot.dol: https://code.google.com/p/nintendon-t/source/browse/trunk/nintendont/boot.dol?spec=svn135&r=135

loader.dol: https://code.google.com/p/nintendon-t/source/browse/trunk/loader/loader.dol?spec=svn135&r=135
boot.dol: https://code.google.com/p/nintendon-t/source/browse/trunk/nintendont/boot.dol?spec=svn135&r=135

both, if I understant, according to google code's revisions.

"boot.dol" need to be the main ".dol" file instead of "loader.dol", from now on...

 

[tswntk]

they are the same if you care to compare them
you just need to rename them depending on where you put them - inside the app's folder for HBC or in other folders for other loaders

 

[Adeka]

Honestly I could care less what the file is called because I always use both...

im one of those people still having trouble downloading the new revisions from Googledoc.
Any alt links for 1.35 and for future revisions?

Thanks.

Try the boot.dol link in Leonardo's post in last page, then click on view raw file to download it. (both links give the same file, just different name)

tried that but get:
"No such revision 135"

Maybe its because im on a mac and using safari.

Edit-
Ok i think i got, i just right clicked and selected "download linked file"
Anyone else on safari go ahead and try that if your having issues.

Thanks for your help.

The multiple saves file (ninmem.raw) which is created
by v1.135 can't be read by Dolphin.(header size doesn't match)

Note:I didn't change the block size (default =251)

You're right, i got an xml error when trying.. In the future you can try this github mirror : https://github.com/thedax/nintendont-mirror/raw/master/trunk/loader/loader.dol

 

[airline38]

I always download the latest loader.dol from :
http://nintendon-t.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/loader/loader.dol

Judging from the list of working games, does this mean Sonic Mega Collection has fixed audio now? Because before, the in-game emulated sound was missing.

May I donate a bunch of GC memory cards to the project coders, so that they can make saving to memcard possible and destroy them if needed?

...and if I may, how many memcards do you think it would take/get destroyed to achieve this?
