Hacking Nintendont

[pedro702]

Alright my Y-Cable just came in. While after about 5 minutes it will load up all my games in Nintendont, this seems fairly long is this normal? While booting up USB loader GX it refuses to read the external hard drive, it gets stuck at trying to read a USB device. Is this common with people with over 300 back ups? Games load perfectly fine even when compressed I played them as well.

This is all in the newest version of Nintendont: 4.436.

Here is the cable I used:
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B00P0C4M5M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

not sure what to tell you, i never had 300 games on my list tbh i mostly had around 50 at best.
But starting games on nintendont directly works fine?(after they show up)

try deleting ninconfig and redownloading nintendont boot.dol.

also maybe your hdd is in need of a good format, aboout usbloadergx i have no idea since i never haad any issue with it to begin with but like i said i never had that manny games on my hdd being wii or gc.

Alright I just replaced the boot.dol with an earlier revision of Nintendont 3.334 everything loaded up within seconds and loaded within seconds. So i'm guessing it's an issue with 4.436. Still have an issue with USB loader GX :/ It won't recognise my drive.

i have a problem with usb loader gx too one workaround is to unplug drive untill usbloader gx says waiting for hdd. then plug in the drive. the other weird thing is that they y splitter cable doesnt work if i connect both to my wiiu, i have the main data cable connected to my wiiu and the other supplementary power is connected to a usb port on my computer.

I unplug the drive and re-plug it in when it says waiting for the drive. It still does not read it. I unplug the drive and boot up usb loader GX and then plug in the drive and it still does not read it. The drive is not externally powered.

are u using a splitter?
cuz that was a problem as i stated. try plugging in the supplementary power to a pc usb or some other usb power source

you have to have the usb drive unplug before you even run usbloader then when it says waiting for hdd plug it in. also plug in supplementary power to another source other than another wiiu port. i had to do both of these things to get my drive to work.

you can avoid all these headaches by just gettign an externally powered hdd. also i'm assuming you formatted the drive correctly. as in fat32

my guess would be a new clean format, without partitions and such a long format not one of those 5 min ones.

"Built-in power management automatically ensures energy-efficient operation" - turn that off. Also check for any hidden partitions like ones with tools for the drive on them.

Holy shit it worked. Thanks a bunch! I thought I already disabled that when I first used the drive. I guess I didn't.

does 4.436 now load fast aswhell? see sometimes are these tiny configs that make drives aparently unsuported in homebrew.

Where do i extract the Forwarder?

 

[pedro702]

I just tested 4.436. It takes about 3 minutes to load 300+ games. USB loader GX loads within 10 seconds. Launching a game from USB loader GX does not show the GUI of loading the game within Nintendont. It's just a black screen. The game loaded however. I just reverted back to 3.334 of Nintendont.

that thing about launching from usbloader gx is on porpose, people complained they didnt wanted to see the gui when launching stuff from usblodergx.

I put the iso's on my hardrive but i cant see any gamecube games on my usb loader

Excuse me but are there any plans to port Nintendont to Wii U RPX format? I mean launched from the Wii U itself, and not the vWii. Thanks.

The best that could be done is a forwarder, similar to hbl2hbc. I'm not sure if anyone's done this yet, but I'd think it would be fairly trivial to modify hbl2hbc to tell it to load the Nintendont executable directly.

Nintendont won't run in Wii U mode due to the different memory map and GPU setup.

When i open nintendont from the homebrew channel, then go to USB it comes up with an error:

WARNING: USB FAT device could not be opened.

Why wont it open??

wii or wii?

maybe you dont have it correctly formated, nintendont needs a clean fat32 formating on any hdd or even sd card.
