Hacking Nintendont

[pedro702]

Fixed it by resetting my TV settings, no idea what was wrong but hey, it's working now.
However, still getting a dump error at random points and it happens immediately if i enable mem emulation (for saving)
Ah well.

got the sd card unlocked? see if the side thing didint slide down, that happens by aciddent.

I don't think there are any released games that don't work. I know THP3, TS (both titles) and Turok NTSC work. (Not sure about PAL.) You might want to check the hashes with the tool in my sig and see if the images are good. If it says "found" they're valid.

If hashes are found means they are already in the perfect clean ISO format for Nintendont?
Because not all my ISOs are 1.4 GB in size but all got a "found" from your verifier.

1.40 gb? are you on mac? on windows they are all 1.35gb max.

He maybe rounding up as they are 1.46GB on a Mac if using OS X 10.6 or later.

If it says "Found" it means the MD5 hash for the file was found in the redump.org database. If you have a file that matches one of those hashes (the "Found" result) then you have a valid GC disc image of some kind. GCVerify doesn't bother with checking anything in the disc layout because it's a known dump.

It should be 1,459,978,240 bytes

Fine, thanks.

Props for a great software!

I updated to version 4.439 today and suddenly games started to load into black screen. I had to pull the plug to restart my WiiU and it didn't matter if the games were on USB or SD. After some trial and error I found the issue being caused by having cheats enabled. Even though I only have cheats installed for SSBM this issue affected every game somehow. After more trial and error I resolved te issue by downgrading Nintendont to version 4.435. Now both games and cheats load as expected.

My setup
WiiU version: 5.5.1
Nintendont version: 4.435 (Wii U)
USB HDD: FAT32, 64kb clusters (works fine with wii games and USB loaders)
SD card: SDXC 128GB class 10 level 3

that is very wierd lol

there is virtutaly no changes to the cheat engine from 435 to 439

436 added a exception of one game to a list and some controller config code for some random hid controller
437 added rel timer patches for barnyard, nicktoons unite and battle for volcano island
438 fixed bmx xxx with 480p yet again( basicaly 2 lines which were bad)
439 added dora explorer to a exception list

as you can see nothing was made thta affects nintendont or cheats or anything besides specific games getting their gameids on exception lists and some controller hid configs here and there.

maybe you got a bad dol on download? did you try deleting ninconfig.bin and redownload the dol and try again?

It hasn't been merged to master yet, but it works. Back-up any memory card images you care about frequently (although I don't think any issues have been reported).

I may send a PR for this over the weekend, depending on feedback.

so cheats were actually broken in 4.439 because of the most silly reason, it should be good now.
-corrected silly #define mistake which broke cheats and possibly more

Spoiler

hooray for cheats being back!

Well, after replaying and doing further tests I can tell you that changing disc in Metal Gear Solid The Twin Snakes corrupts always the virtual memory card. Any single time.

How should I report this?
My setup is Wii 4.3 with Nintendont updated online two days ago. I think v4.439

Update 4.440 just got released, try and see if the problem is still there in the latest version.

Also, confirmed games and cheats load fine for me in 4.440

Hi, if anyone is still watching this thread and could help, would be very appreciated.

I want to use cheats on gamecube games, but they seem not to work properly.
i tried resident evil 2 and infinite health is not working. seems not to enable with the button combo. i got the codes loaded through usbloader gx, enabled them in nintendont and also in usbloader gx.
the code for 10 inventory slots is working just fine...
Is there anything about this issue i can do ?
Thanks in advance and cheers
