Just found out there is a new update for the Wii Shop Channel.
I have 4.2E at the moment.
Should I update?

Will it delete the homebrew channel if I update?
Thanks.

No.

If the System Menu isn't touched (in this case it's not), you can pretty much guarantee that the Homebrew Channel will not be affected.

its safe, update. if you used a fail updater (called a "safe" updater by devs), then it'll update boot2 removing bootmii if you have it. Just reinstall it afterwards. It will not remove anything else. 'cept maybe cIOS if you have it.

That's really unhelpful seeing as he asked TWO questions; should he update, and would the update remove HBC.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
