Hacking Nintendont

[pedro702]

Well I tried on SD and it seems to have worked. Will do some more testing.

SD cards will always work except some videos there will be some stutering on the audio on some selected games but that is about it.

 

[dimmidice]

nvm! sorry

 

[pedro702]

there is a random user
92.23.86.142

changing the compat list and saying games are broken... he probably has messed up isos and stuff, isnt it about time we lock the wiki to registed ppl alone? no more random ips?

i think the wiki should be changed to only registed people and not a random IP.

nothing will prevent said user to create an account to do the same edits

well atleast we can talk to him directly instead of wiki messages.

"hire" a few op and restrict editing to those op?
users should report their findings here and let the op decide if those are valid or not.
The problem would be if it is possible and who will volunteer

IP ban him from the wiki server.

Hello Cyan, might seem a bit "off topic", but I read your dialogue with Fix94 with most attention : do the both of you think it would be possible to apply the "no deflicker" option to wii games which, to my knowledge, keep on applying it on progressive (PAL Twilight Princess to name it) ? I must say the NTSC version looks way better (even on Youtube) when you compare it to the PAL one ? Just a guess. Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer me, and my apology if I'm just asking a silly question. Cheers.

So, just got Nintendont v3.333 up and running perfectly. No problems whatsoever. Loaded up a Wind Waker iso to relive some nostalgia. Now, I'm using it with a Classic Controller Pro, and having a couple of problems. First, after some time of playing Wind Waker, the character occasionally just spins around on it's own. I move around a bit, it stops me and makes me face the other way. Then it goes away. I have tried unplugging the classic controller and reconnecting it, but the problem still persists. It's really hard to play properly as Forsaken Fortress requires you to stay still for some time, which is not always possible with the occasional random movements. Now, for my second problem: I want to exit the loader/home menu, and when I press the home button on the CCP, the Wii freezes, and I have to hold down the power button. Can anyone tell me how to exit properly, and also fix the controller problem? Thanks in advance.

Apparently, it doesn't work.
Cyan took the time to prepare a mod version of GX with video mode selection but it doesn't seem to work.
I've tested it and nothing seems to change.
In theory it should but in practice it doesn't.

Strange problem, indeed!
I've played some gc games on nintendont flawlessly. The problem occurred first on Forsaken Fortress?
You're using nintendont through a loader?

Your second issue seems to be related with something I previously reported over here https://gbatemp.net/threads/nintendont.349258/page-1398#post-5486998
Maybe now Fix could take a look at it...
Try launching the titles from GX (loader) instead.
See if that works.

this is more than likely the issue, a non-original controller pushing too many messages to nintendont so it overreacts and has cache fails leading to the described movement errors and the crash in the end cause of data overflow.
Oh and I dont really know why I felt like recording this terrible replay, I guess cause of the nicely broken physics of this game:

 

[AliTheAce]

My controller is a genuine Classic Controller Pro. The control issue started soon after I could control the character. It also happens in Twilight Princess.

I have USB Loader GX and the standalone forwarder. The problem with the controller happens only in Nintendont, but still.persists through USB Loader GX

Wii still freezes if used through USB Loader GX.
The controller issue only happens in Nintendont, other games can be played perfectly with the CCP

then try a usb controller, other wiimote, gc controller or whatever, theres nothing I can do really.

is your wiimote also genuine?

never saw anyone complain of controller issues on those games at all.

This reminds me of an issue I had with Pac-Man World 3, one of my genuine GC controllers has a weird input, when you push the analog stick forward to move he "walks" slowly rather than run, that's because the stick repeatidly stops and works again but it happens too fast to notice it, in most games it works fine as if it's not faulty but with this game it's impossible to play it, however my other two genuine GC controllers work fine, just saying maybe it's the controller being slightly faulty.

Pedro, thank you for bringing up that option. Changing the Wiimote seems to have solved the problem!

Also, updated USB Loader GX, and I can quit to USB Loader with the home button. Thanks everyone!
