Hacking Nintendont

[pedro702]

I thought it would be both tbh. Any idea if Nintendo could support BT hid?

nintendont would need an entirely new bt stack to be made wich will take alot of work and knowledge, wich tbh i dont see anyone willing to do.

Hello to everyone from Germany,
can one of you tell me if it's possible to use Nintendont via USB Loader GX with a 2 partition HDD in the back
side with FAT32 for GC and NTFS for Wii, while a second HDD in WiiU format is connected to the front side ?
Nintendont always tries to read the WiiU HDD in the front and stops with an error.
When I disconnect the front drive everything works fine with th USB Loader and Nintendont.
I checked all settings and see no solution.
Can someone help ?

you already found the solution lol its to unplug the wiiu formated drive. nintendont does not work when multiple hdds are connected, the only solution is unplugging the wiiu one.

Oh pity, but thanks for your answer.
Perhaps a different GC program works better and with all controllers ?
Or could a USB hub be a solution with both HDD in the back ?
I need it more comfortable

Perhaps there'll come a tool to format a partition suitable as WiiU partition to get everything on one drive
But I don't think so because they focus more on Switch now.

usb hubs are not supported and make even more issues, it doesnt matter where yu connect your hdds, if nintendont sees 2 it wont work.

Ok, thanks.
I think I'll get a 3.5° HDD for WiiU games with external power which I can turn on-off instead of disconnecting everytime.

You can get this working with wiiflow and nintendont with 2 hdds connected

Sorry, but no.
With a WiiU USB HDD in front it's not checking the one in the back, so WiiFlow starts nothing at all.
So with that detail it's much worse than the USB Loader GX.

I have my wiiu set up working with wiiflow lite. Both USB hdds are connected to the back tho. None in front

This guide was made by a member called nomelas and worked a treat for me

Perhaps both not WiiU formated, only FAT32 or NTFS.

What is the default combination on a PS4 controller to quit out of nintendont (as in which buttons on the pad?) As I cant get out of a game without actually pressing the power button on the Wii U.

I can reset the game easily enough with R1, R2 and start which Im assuming is R+Z+Start. But the actual quit out of Nintendont combination (I assume its still R+Z+B+DPad Down) doesnt work.

Tried it, nothing happens. Tried pretty much every combination Ive read about, cant get Nintendont to quit without a power down on the console

maybe your controller.ini or ninonfig.bin got corrupted it happens alot with ps3/ps4 controllers for some odd reason try to delete your controller.ini and ninconfig.bin and even redownloading the nintendont boot.dol

Hey, guys. Newbie here.

I use my Wii almost exclusively for 20XX (Melee). I was wondering what the ideal configuration would be for minimizing loading times? USB vs SD card, or a combination of both?

Thanks for any help!

usb is always better on wii/vwii.

Well originally I just plugged the PS4 controller in via USB and it work. All the buttons are mapped and it works fine apart from not letting me come out of Nintendont. I tried a couple of INI files I found for Dualshock 4s and even one for the DS4 V2 (which is slightly different apparently for controllers for the PS4 Pro which I have) and none seem to make a difference so I'm all out of ideas.

Thanks! Is there any benefit/detriment to having Nintendont and other apps on the SD card but the games on a USB?

not really as long as isos are on usb they will run faster.

In HID Test controller configs, what do MultiIn, LAnalog, and RAnalog do? I imagine the analog options refer to analog sticks, but there are already options for the CStick and Stick options for the gamecube controller sticks. As for MultiIn, I have no idea.
