Hacking Nintendont

[TotalInsanity4]

so anyone got those minidvd adapters already? im quite interested to see the results of those on wiiu with nintendont if they work at all.

None of us can find the ones that were made for slot loading drives :T

I don't see any for slot loaders anywhere. Apple filed a patent for one years back but they never produced it. I wouldn't use anything like that with protruding tabs in a slot load drive. It seems like a hardware disaster waiting to happen.

Is there a button combo that will take me back to the Nintendont menu/select game screen instead of closing it and taking me to the homebrew channel?

No. The loader portion of Nintendont is gone once the kernel is started. It was intended to be used with other USB loaders like WiiFlow, USB Loader GX, etc.

Hello,

Can anyone tell me if this adaptor for playstation 2 gamepads works with nintendont?

As long as it's a USB-HID device, then yes. (Most likely is.) You can test it with the homebrew application in the thread.

Question: Is there any difference between using a SD instead a USB HDD? Can I load Wii Backups from SD card with CFG USB Loader? I'm planning on going to buy a 256GB SD Card to put my Wii/Games

You'll have slower read speeds, but otherwise it should work. I'm not sure if the Wii's SD reader has a hard limit on how large the SD card can be. Either way, it needs to be formatted to a single FAT32 partition.

From what I remember the update that enables SDHC is maxed at 32GB but games built before it like Brawl still won't recognize >2GB SD.

Ah, there's a support article that answers it: http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/2516/~/what-sd-cards-are-compatible

That's not entirely true. They say it can only handle a max of 32GB (SDHC) because the Wii only supports FAT16 and FAT32. SDXC's standard format is exFAT, which the Wii isn't compatible with, but you can use some tools to format SDXCs to FAT32. Even the 3DS only officially supports SDHC, but it can use SDXCs if you format them to FAT32.

How can that be slower? SD are faster as far as I know....

 

[matthi321]

how do i make the games show up in usbloader gx?

no they arent lol you are dreaming lol.

SD cards can cause some audio stutter on some game cutscenes, the wii/wiiu sd card reader is preety crappy.

Ohhh I didn't know that D: so anyone has tried already to confirm that?

I don't know where you got that idea. They have better seek times than HDDs, but by no means faster read/write times. Especially with the Wii's crappy reader.

I'm not sure why it's slower on the Wii than USB. If I had to guess I'd say maybe the SD transfers don't use DMA or maybe it's related to the way I/O is handled in general.
I seem to remember reading something about not being able to do homebrew remote debugging via network because of the Starlet being "in the way."

Hi, I'm having a problem here.
I've been using rev 3.333 to play Fire Emblem - PoR (Ntsc), and everything seems to be fine, I've been playing trhough chapter 1 to 27 without a problem, but then at the end of chapter 27 when Ike is about to enter to confront the dark knight alone, the game freezes into a black screen.
I'm wondering If anyone had the same problem or if this doesn't happen on some other version.
Any help would be greatly apreciated.

Can anyone give full instructions on how to use cheats because I keep searching around and can't get it to work.
