So Luigis mansion only crashes when widescreen is enabled? Why is it marked orange for stability then?

Widescreen and memory card emulation both crash the game to different degrees with 2.236, that's the only reason I can think of.

Edit: I thought you meant the entire game was marked as orange, not just that one section. My bad!

MCE does not effect if a game is marked green/orange/red for compatiblity

if it has MCE problems then it should be marked ONLY in the memory card column

No one seems to read my posts here but in reference to the Wii U adapter I only get missed inputs and buttons getting stuck when I use USB. When I use SD card it works perfectly fine.

Just Melee with the 20xx pack. Its a mod of melee with changes some of the .dol files. With SD card plugged into front and adapter plugged into front usb port it works perfectly fine. When my hard drive is plugged into back ports and adapter is plugged into front ports the game will randomly freeze up on my inputs, but only inputs. Could it be the 20xx mod? (http://smashboards.com/threads/the-...re-alt-stages-costumes-new-debug-menu.351221/) Like the joystick will get stuck in a certain direction or a button will be held down.

what about regular melee? do you still get missed inputs through USB loading?

hello everyone trying to get nintendont and wiiflow setup nicely and so far everything works great. the only problem i am having is for some reason i cannot get nintendont to auto load the ngc game directly from wiiflow. when i click the game it loads then takes me to nintendont and gives me the choice of sd or usb instead of just auto loading the game. i have wiiflow set to use nintendont as default ngc loader. what else am i missing? the games load fine if i select one but i would much prefer to auto load from wiiflow when i select the game.

Have you tried selecting auto boot from loader in the Nintendont options menu? I don't use Wiiflow so I cant help much more

does this happen in all controller ports? Also do you have another USB drive to test? a USB card reader for your SD card would be the perfect test

Yeah Ill test it with usb card tomorrow. And yes I was playing 4 player melee with friends and we all noticed it. Also I'm not sure how autobooting my last game would help me out here.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
