Hacking QtWitGui

[giantpune]

i have added stuff for the korean key support in r110. i have no game to test it on. it would be nice if somebody with a korean wii would test drive it.

 

[thiefstar]

can't load normal key game? this version works for korean game only?

 

[giantpune]

this error was caused by a slight change in the output text from wit. the gui was unable to correctly detect the IOS and files in the game. should be fixed in r111.

 

[Wiimm]

Oh sorry, changed the output of the ios so it is like the others: first hex then dec.

I think it is a good choice to implement the --sections option for dump too: It produces machine readable output. Example for list:

# wit list --sections pool/wdf/wch.wdf

[disc-0]

It seems can't detect region of KoreanDisc.

Could anyone precompile a linux32 build?

 

[giantpune]

in order to use a precompiled linux32 version, you would either have to have Qt on your system or the binary would need to be built with Qt static. if you already have Qt on your system, then you could just build a binary yourself really easily.

i would provide binaries for this, but it takes too long to build Qt static libraries. linux64 took me like 2 hours on a really fast computer. i would have to make linux32 in a VM so it would be like 3 hours or something. and building a static & universal MAC Qt takes like 4-5 hours at least on my piddly VM . if somebody wants to build the SDK and send it to me, it will slap it on my VMs and then i can distribute static linked binaries.

 

[giantpune]

I have rewritten this program, and added a bunch of stuff. right now i am in need of somebody who can do graphics for it. if somebody is interrested, and has the talent to make good images, let me know.

 

[crazyp83]

I would like to run this on Mac OS X, and as no binaries are available it seems to me i have to compile it myself. Can any one let me know hot to compile it on mac. I have very limited experience with building programs on linux and could use some guidance. If i can build the program I will make it available to anyone else running Mac.

 

[giantpune]

to build this you will need the Qt SDK from nokia. not the framework, but you need the SDK. the LGPL version will do just fine. http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/ you will also need curl and unzip. if you DONT have these, then you will need to get wiitdb.zip yourself and unzip it in the directory with all my source code.

once you have that, and the source from my svn, just run "qmake ./witGui.pro -spec macx-g++ -r CONFIG+=release" in the directory with the source. it should do a number of things... first make sure you have a file called wiitdb.xml in with the source code. then it will generate a makefile and some extra c++ files from the xml files in the source.

once that is done, just do "make -j4" and cross your fingers. it SHOULD spit out a working .app. if it doesnt, then you may need to tweak the settings in line 94 of the .pro. the current .pro generates a working .app on my intel mac.

Thanks alot

could you give me a working commands to build it on linux 64bit (ubuntu), "qmake witGui.pro && make -j4" returns an include error, for a file that should be local and doesn't seem to exist. I should have all the qt libs here, i'm also building other qt apps and i'm assuming i don't need the "nokia" qt sdk on linux, right ?

Or maybe point me to a more recent amd64 dynamic build than the one currently available in the dowload section (r96??) ? which doesn't seem to work with recent wit builds as it keeps returning it can't parse wit output.

thx a bunch

 

[giantpune]

this is what im using

qmake ./witGui.pro -r -spec linux-g++-64
make -j9

Where do I go 2 download the Mac version?

 

[giantpune]

you have to build it from source.

 

[dn_angel000]

O ok!! How do u do that on the Mac? And how do I get the Source Code from the site?

EDIT: Just downloaded + installed Xcode 4 Mac!! lol

 

[dn_angel000]

Just uninstalled Xcode + installed QT SDK GPL instead!

I can't find out how to fix this... None of my games will load with it, I just keep getting
"Error parsing data from wit. The game cannot be loaded."
Before, when I got wit, it said it was built to run wit r1451, I'm using r2223, and I've been looking for r1451 for the past 2 days. Is it because of the wrong version of wit the reason why this is not working?

The two ISO's I used were Goldeneye, and Black Ops. Goldeneye runs perfectly on my USB drive, but Black Ops is too big, which is why I got your program in the first place.

 

[Wiimm]

I have changed and improved the layout of some output, so that QtWitGui has problems with current releases. In other words: I have broken the QtWitGui support!

Please use the recommended release.

 

[Selim873]

I deleted the program and tried the qtwitgui r146 *testing purposes* version. Oh, I'm definitely testing it because it's working! I guess I'll give some feedback later!

Before, I had been trying to use the r105 binary.

EDIT

Thanks! Worked just as I expected!! The only items I deleted were the BIK video files, online multiplayer works like a charm!
