Hacking Nintendont

[Stringer Bell]

Would this allow me to use a Gamecube controller on any Wii U game? (Mario Kart 8, Pokken.. )

Thanks in advance, couldn't really find an answer

Thank you! P.S., how do you mention someone like you did?

@Plushieluver101 just use the "@" sign and that person's username..

@owek1 Thank you! I wasn't sure as some forums have different methods. Thanks!

*MAJOR EDIT*

Uh, it was a faulty USB! Should have tried a new one before complaining. Oups! Sorry! Never buy a TDK USB, anyone. (Explains why it kept disconnecting on its own on my laptop).

So, all's working and I find an issue again Why is my Gamecube controller only working in Crash Tag Team Racing and not Sonic Heroes or Mario Kart Double Dash!! ? If it's because my Gamecube controller isn't official, is there anything I can do to make that work? It works in one game, so, surely something can be done? @GreyWolf

nintendont is a wii and vwii app that runs gc games on wii/vwii, why in hell would it allow to use a gc controller in wiiu games? you figure that out lol.

what are you using the wii or wiiu with gc adapter? also are you sure your putting the controller on port1?

Ikaruga chokes big-time on compact ISOs, too.

@GerbilSoft Have you looked into how difficult it would be to replace FAT32 in d2x with FatFS?

d2x already uses FatFS, but it's a rather old version (R0.08b): https://github.com/davebaol/d2x-cios/blob/master/source/fat-module/ff.c

It shouldn't be too hard to copy over the version used in Nintendont. (R0.12a_p7 in my widescreen-hax.r422 branch, plus GPT and EBR support.)

...except the one in d2x has MULTI_PARTITION enabled. I haven't tested this with my GPT+EBR changes.

Just to let you guys know that GC games still freeze , it wasn't the compressed ISOs....I really wish to know the problem because I don't want to rely on a random 32gb SanDisk drive for the rest of my life

can you take a picture of your nintendont settings?

The only one that doesn't freeze is the 32gb one that's identical to the 128gb one...

if you turn width to auto or zero and force widescren and progressive to off and use one of your hdds or the 128gb one to see if it still crashes, just curious.

Yes, I have used the default settings, launching from USB GX or directly from Nintendont, formatted my drives with different recommended tools to fat32 32 cluster and 64 cluster ... The games don't freeze ONLY on the 32gb one , this is so sad and hilarious at the same time

well its a problem on your side imo its your wii, if you have a friend with a wii or wiiu try running one of those hdds on his wii, i bet it will work.

 

[LightyKD]

Can anyone confirm if this adapter works on Nintendont?

I have 2 Wiis, one black and one white....I think it's the drives BUT it's weird that 3 of 4 don't work

maybe they just arent compatible, there isnt much we can do since no one else has that issue tough.

Oh, sorry! I'm using normal Wii. Not the vWii on Wii U. I have no such adapter. Just slotted it into the GameCube controller slot (out of the four) on the Wii. After realising the GameCube controller ain't official (this is why you don't trust your parents with 'cheapest deals' :/), could it just be that? It somehow works in Crash Tag Team Racing but no other games.

By port 1, I assume you mean the physical (or is this a file in Nintendont I missed?) I dunno if you mean the physical. I just put it in the one farthest away from the disk drive. Should it be in the one closest to?

Thanks for the help, @pedro702
