Hacking Nintendont

[Jazzist]

Some of them but not all.
What version are you currently on?

Going up to 4.3U and installing the hack again should not be difficult, Smash Stack might be sufficient to reinstall Homebrew Channel once again.

I'm on 4.2U. Already added the Wifi, now it's asking whether I want to update or not. I guess it's all or nothing? lol

It's your decision now. XD
It's up to you!

I say go for it and reinstall everything if something gets deleted.
If your HBC is updated, perhaps it won't be erased at all.

Hrmm, I get Error Code 32007.

Is there any way to install the update from another source? Maybe a Wii game? :|

EDIT: I actually remember something: For the NAND Backup reload, I had to use nandBinCheck to fix the backups so my Wii would read them. Is that normal?

EDIT 2: This thread saved me, specifically: I have managed to make it work. Download NUSD and a WAD MANAGER 1.8 to install the newest IOS58.

It works now! Now to try the GBA Link Cable with Nintendont...

EDIT 3: Link Cable works! Although I've been scammed (Only 1 of the pair I bought work...)

Thanks so much guys!

The gameid is different.
Mine:

USB/wbfs/FRAGILE DREAMS [R2GEXJ]/R2GEXJ.wbfs

Gonna try your id.

EDIT: Same thing...

Can you open a new thread for all these pages of 100% off topic materials?
You can put a link here to your new thread for existing helpers and if you post it in the Wii - Backup Loaders forum, you could draw a much bigger crew of helpers.

Does nintendont need to be installed on the same drive as the GC games? Or can I keep it on a separate SD card?

Using USB hard drive and launching via USB loader gx. Everything running OK just want to confirm.

Nope, you can boot Nintendont from a SDCard and load games from USB

yep, the app itself can be on SD and/or on USB but once Nintendont started and destination selected, everything else has to be accessed from the destination drive (games, saves, config files and cheats etc)

Glad to know you got it working.
So it was IOS58 then? WEIIIRDDDD shit hahah.

Cyan, could you add this issue to the OP?
"Kernel failed to load NAND" and got solved by reinstalling IOS58.

Only on Wii though! That would brick vWii

Thanks, I had problems in the past but got a new sdcard so I'll try it out.

It could be specified (Wii only)

I don't think it's a common issue, it's the first user with this problem.
It could be because he had a bad IOS58, but every other homebrew could have failed accessing NAND too. I'm not sure it's relevant to nintendont troubleshooting, but I can add it.

You would be surprised how many still just install IOSes without the proper knowledge . the IOS58 for example, Nintendont does not like it if you are not using a clean (not patched) IOS58, but some homebrew allow installing patched versions for nearly every IOS. Generally that is not a bad thing but if people do not know what IOS to patch this can be a disaster.

Cyan, as far as i know Nintendont does not like a patched or BAD (if even possible) IOS58.
So i think this will be usefull info.

 

[Cyan]

it's already explained to use the latest IOS58 from NUSD (in big red letters)
but I can add that reason too.

edit:
added.

Indeed. lol

Thanks again ShadowOne333 and TotalInsanity4.

It does. But it didn't specify what'd show up if you had a bad IOS58. Now people can simply Ctrl+F the OP with "NAND".

Another thing. That line here:

What Nintendont will never support:

GBA-Link cable

Should be changed. It does indeed support GBA Link Cable (For Wii, at least).

Further more only the Wii's with GameCube Ports as some Wii's didn't have them.

 

[sonictopfan]

I still wish for GBA-Link support with the Wii U controller, I know this'll never happen but one can dream, right?
zzzzz...

 

[dragon12]

Dual ports support DO NOT CONNECT TWO DRIVES AT THE SAME TIME! (even a WiiU Formated drive). It will either not boot, or corrupt your savegames.

Is this still a thing? I'm thinking of buying an extra HDD for Wii U games (my Wii U internal storage is at its limits...) but I really don't want to disconnect one of the HDD every time I run Nintendon't... I also have younger siblings and they disconnect anything in the Wii U is out of question.

In an ideal world, there should be a way to partition a WiiU formated drive but Nintendo doesn't give a shit for it and people here say it's not possible to achieve it atm (not without hacking Wii U mode).

 

[FIX94]

tiny update today, finally looked at that issue somebody mentioned:
-added majoras mask alternative audio stream hook to fix missing ocarina confirmation sound and missing credits music
-slightly changed patcher debug output

 

[FIX94]

on a sidenote, the game audio is pretty bad and every time you play the ocarina you can hear that, I dont know yet if I'll leave it in at all cause it seem to have gotten worse. to see what i mean now just play a song on the ocarina, now you can actually hear the confirm sound but on area switches theres quite some beeping going on.
