Hello guys, I just installed the Openbor on my Wii , the version is 3.0

I added first only 2 games to test: Crisis Evil and Streets of Rage 2x

Crisis Evil loads ok. But, after playing a couple minutes, in the first "subway" sign, the screen roll does not advance and enemies stop appearing so we got stuck

Streets of Rage 2x goes to a black screen and I need to reset the wii. This game was downloaded on ChronoCrash

I extracted the files and put only the PAK file inside PAK folder of Openbor. There´s a lot of other files, but I left them out of the SD

My 128gb SD card is that cheapest one that you see on Aliexpress, but it´s working ok for most emulators (genplus, snes9x, retroarch, etc.)

Any idea if I´m doing something wrong?

@locomia

I dont have the original Crisis Evil, i have the Harlem Heroes Remake Vellrrath Edition Remastered version. I just completed the 1st stage with no issues, but do not have SOR 2X to test.

I tested hundreds of games a few years back and kept around 120-130 that were playable but testing on many games was not thorough. I could gather a small compatibility list of what i have and believe is working and post. I have been away from the BOR scene for a few years so the list will definitely not be current after 2020, im sure many newer games or others untested are working.

I use OpenBoR v3.0 Build

Thank you! A small compatibity list would be great (if it not give too much work to you)
My openbor version is the same. The "working" game actually is crisis evil 2 and the issue occurs when playing the sound modified version (first option in game) but it worked well using the "original game" (third option in list when game starts). About SOR 2x I'll assume that it's not compatible and try other games..

I play tested many version of openbor for the switch with different paks and narrowed it down to one version of openbor that runs best on the Wii. When I get back home from vacation I will check what version I use.

@matto21

I see you have a few marked not working that i have in my folder.

What i have is a ROUGH list and those titles are most likely not working as matto21 has marked.

Too bad there isn't a host location where the working paks could be uploaded and downloaded for quick access to all those interested in Beats.

Hunting some of these games down, especially the latest working releases requires some digging.

i also second this as i just stumbled across this hidden gem of games and i am legit hooked and kinda surprised its not updated more on platforms to be emulated as the switch one takes sooooo long to scroll through the games if u have to many its painful but its only one that plays them pretty smoothly wihtout hassle and ive tried other consoles but ya, hope it gets some love besides windows.

This is the thread that kind of pushed me to join as there isn't much Wii OpenBOR talk that I could find elsewhere.

Anyway, I have "Godzilla, Ultraman, Gamera" pak that I have customized between a couple different versions of some earlier releases with the intent of making it Wii friendly and feature heavy. You can play it from beginning to end without crashing. It's the version prior to their adding the "Defend" game mode, but with that mode added. Also added a bunch of features.

I do not want credit for this. Credit the creators as this PAK is still being updated to this day and is awesome. I only want to share it.

@Qaztab

Very cool game with great audio/music. Thank you for sharing this.

Wanted to enlighten or remind others, OpenBOR can be used through WiiFlow Lite plugins. If you have several games, using through the natural HBC app can be cumbersome to say the least.

The emulator will only play games through SD, but through WFL using Wiimpathy mod, they will play through USB. Not only is it much easier to navigate to your desired game but @matto21 released his cover art for these games as well.

What i have now is around 280 OpenBOR paks (25gb) now working thanks to matto21 huge contributions.

I am going to host these paks for download with a Mega link available coming in the next few days. These games are free to distribute as they are made by fans of the genre.

If any content is restricted or creator wants their content removed, please post or PM me.

Thanks
